    Heard murmurs on another site about a Veyron spot on Watauga Road over the weekend.. Black on black, but no further info.

    Saturday evening on the way home, saw this (photo from the '05 Concorso) humming southbound into Granbury..

    I was heading to the airport yesterday afternoon around 11:30, and heading the other way around the Galleria, were TWO red 430s following each other.

    "Texas Oil Man" often refers to the exotic car fan in Midland, TX who owns the McLaren F1, Enzo, and more down there. Could be his.

    Black 599 on Preston.

    There is a Mera for sale on Mockingbird just East of the Tollway. Driving by it looks just like a 308GTB, which I thought it was, because it had a Ferrari logo on the hood.

    When I pulled up to it I noticed the rims weren't stock, my first clue, then looking inside it was obviously a Ponitac looking dash. The trunk has "MERA" on it, but he also had the silver prancing horse on the rear. It's craptastic.

    I saw that one a few weeks ago Robert. It isn't very convincing from afar once your eyes adjust to it. Real shame huh? I thought it was real from a few hundred feet away.

    I was at Preston Center today and saw a yellow V8 Vantage along with a red F430 with a license plate with "Marathon" and some other words on it. Looked real nice.

    Spotted an F430 Spyder at the Whataburger on Hebron Pkwy in Carrollton yesterday afternoon

    This afternoon I spotted an Audi R8 in black traveling north on I-35E just south of Denton. Amazing car to see in the wild!

    I don't know why this slipped my mind, but when the snow came through a couple weeks ago, there was a copper colored Viper (Copperhead ?) terrorizing downtown Dallas between the Adam's Mark towers. Gotta respect someone that drives it like that regardless of the conditions.

    Was at Trinity Hall for the St.Patty's brunch today, and passed a red 360 Spyder at Mockingbird and Matilda heading towards Greenville around 12:30. There was also a black Viper (mid 90's) with the top off coming out of the 24 Hour fitness parking lot onto Ridge Road in Rockwall yesterday around sunset. I don't know if it is a special edition or not, but I have been seeing a new white vette in Rowlett with reddish GS stripes on the passenger side. Looks great...

    There was a blue with white stripes Shelby GT 350 in one of the bays of the sho next to Campisi's on Mockingbird. It had Caroll Shelby Motors plate frames on it and looked pristine. I have never seen this around here. There was also the daily driver black NSX on Greenville at McCommas yesterday evening.

    all I saw during my quick trip to Dallas today was an Aston - such a pity, Astons are only one color and this one wasn't it!

    The red Lotus is still at the shop in Rowlett, even through the monsoon. It just sits outside. Any FC'ers know about this car?
