DFW Ferrari and Exotic Spotters

Grigio 430 Spider top down at Cedar Springs and Pearl yesterday at about 1.30pm sounded great with the noise bouncing off the buildings

 

Spotted an ultra-rare Jaguar XJS "Riveria" model last night with the F-n-F option package with purple under-chassis neon and indiglo 5" tachometer hanging from his headliner. Yes, there were "Riveria" script logos off of a Buick on the rear end and front fenders.

Since I'm in a Lux mood, I did spot an all white Phantom at the W last Thursday night.

 

Yellow 430 Spider at Park Lane and Preston on Sunday.

 

Speaking of yellow, i saw a yellow 348tb driving around in the monsoon on Saturday. He was on legacy turning south on preston.

 

Yesterday there was a beautiful Rosso 360 spider on Martin St., at the Euro shop. Never noticed it in town before. The white on blue Viper ( GTS ) was at Eagle transmission again. There was also a rather dirty, black NSX at Matilda and McCommas around 5:00 yesterday evening, turning northbound on Matilda.

 

Sounds more like a lutz than a lux. Was it in East Dallas????

 

Just how is should be!!!!!! Kudos to your neighbor.

Amazingly no, nor Stop 6.. I ran across it on my commute through Benbrook on 377, on the same stretch I've seen many an exotic, including F40's, CS's, and an Enzo..

 

Wow, must have gotten lost looking for some fake fender ports or something.....

 

There was a Grigio 360 Modena in front at valet about 8:30 this morning, it was gone when I came out this afternoon though. I was hoping to chat a bit with the driver....

 

black F430 outside of the starz game tonight around 10:00.....sounded great!
and the starz rocked tonight by the way!

 

Silver DB9 at Gloria's in Addison last night.

 

The wife and I went to Highland Park today and spotted about 6 Bentley Continental GTs.
After awhile, they looked ordinary!!!! Also spotted a red Cobra in the lot (real or not, they are cool).

Then I heard a sweet sound and turned to see a silver 360 spider cruising through.

On the way home, we spotted a yellow Murcielago (LP640??) headed west on Hwy 80 in Mesquite.

Fun day for sport cars!!!

 

On my drive home from work today, a stunning metallic orange Gallardo fueling up in Benbrook on 377.. Clever vanity plate on it..

But the spot of the year (to date) was a Giallo Limone Daytona coupe on 820 westbound crossing the bridge at Lake Worth.. Caught it as it went the other way, and the hairs stood up on my arms, and my mouth hung open.. It had been 22 years since I had seen a Daytona in motion.. simply amazing.

 

Red 360 Modena at the corner of Midway Rd and Beltline at about 2pm today

 

A couple of 360s and 430s at the Pizza thing, and a 355 too. Don't know if they count.

 

A grey 328 also!

 

Saw a somewhat odd one last night.

I was leaving Sherlock's (Park and Central Expy) last night around 1:30 and saw a silver Gallardo parked in the lot. I saw it from the front and it looked odd. I thought perhaps I was looking at a S.L. Nope.... As I got around it, it appeared to be in a accident. The whole rear (driver's side) quarter panel was torn off, leaving the whole tire exposed along with the guts. It was actually kinda of cool to see what is under the skin, but i'm sure the owner wasn't thrilled. I'm actually surprised he/she didn't just take it home. I would have.

Was walking around HP today and saw the blue 308 GTB, a mustard yellow Elise with black stripes (gave the older gentleman a thumbs up), and saw a red 308 GTB Fiero replica for sale on a driveway on Mockingbird. Fooled me from 150 feet, but once I got closer than that, it became apparent it wasn't a real Ferrari. The proportions are all wrong along with the fake hood vents being the flip up headlights...

 

I had seen the same car i believe, on greenville south of mckinney a few months back. Damage wasn't that significant though at the time. If this isnt the same one, I will not be buying a silver one!

 

Left the Anatole around 6:30 this morning (doing production in the Trinity Ballroom), and sitting side by side were a dark blue Rolls Silver Spirit II and a silver Aston DB7 Vantage. Looked like a nice couple...

 

It'd be crazy to have such an awesome car in that condition, and not fix it...especially for that amount of time (if it is indeed the same car). Oh well... to each his own.



In Lewisville today at Pier 121 parking lot was a black Ford GT. What an awesome car. I hope to have one some day.

Great way to start the day.

spotted a red 612 coming off of Mockingbird onto Buckner. Completely changed my opinion of this car after seeing it in red and in person. It's a fantastic sounding and beautiful looking car. Guy was taking his son to school. Reminded me off when my Dad had a 308 as I was kid. I hope the 612 warps this kids mind and my Dad's 308 did to mine.

Saw a black F430 followed by a Silver Viper GTS on 35E at NW Hwy after work today.

 

Light blue Aston Martin DB9 Volante at 5:20 on Lovers Lane, then Vanquish, DB9 Coupe, and a new Porsche 911 of some sort all getting off the Tollway at the Lovers Lane exit today at 5:55. I thought that was pretty unusual!
