    Parked out front around 4:30 this afternoon. Sorry for the crappy cellphone pic, kinda makes it look like a big Hyundai instead of a Maybach 50-s.

    It's not the cellphone doing that, it's the German 'stylists' who did that :)

    I believe the black one is his. Never seen the maroon one. I'm more familiar with his Ferrari's and his Ducatti than I am with his Maser though.

    Saw a yellow Gran Turismo this evening on 635. Buddy also told me today there was a XJ220 outside Lamborghini Dallas last Saturday. Where's that guy been....

    Saw the maroon Gransport again today at 5:40 @ a gas station on 66 in Rowlett... looks like someone got a new toy

    Here's one for the books. I hate that it was too dark for a pic. On 66 heading from Dalrock to Rowlett Road, a green with white rear bumper, first gen Neon (bear with me!) with a fart can exhaust, green neons, honda spoiler, and the beloved Prancing Stallion in place of the dodge decals! I will get photos, mark my words, I will get photos. Oh, it was for sale too....

    File this one under "No Idea". I was going down McMillan, towards Mockingbird, this afternoon. Parked on a sidestreet was what appeared to be a compact version of a Lambo Espada, but the grill looked like an Alfa. I've been scouring the net looking for what it is but I have found nothing. I made an attempt to find it again by circling around, but it was gone. It was light blue I believe. Anybody have an idea as to what it might have been?

    That's it! Damn Tillman, you're good....So to edit my earlier post, There was an Alfa GTV-6 on McMillan earlier today. I will keep an eye out for it tomorrow, but I said the same about the neonerrari floating around my end of the metroplex, so don't hold your breath...

    By the way, I love the way the columnist said the Alfa has "dramatically less suck than the Renault." :D

    Saw the yellow Maser GT on 66@Chiesa around 1:30, and I caught the Alfa again. I will try to get a pic up tomorrow. Also, I saw a stunning black with black top mid 60's convertible Vette with chrome Z51 wheels at the O'Reilly's on 66 in Rowlett, and a black with black top Shelby GT on Dalrock on the trip home. Sounded good downshifting coming off of 30.

    Ran next to a red Maser Granturismo for a few miles on the GWB this morning. It doesn't look good in red.

    visiting from California, was at the "Galleria" (not sure actual name) near Farmers Branch, there was a dark metallic red w/dark brown interior 360 spyder parked in front of Valet parking, 6 speed too.

    I actually prefer the red. Next to black, I think it is the best color on the GT, that's just my opinion though. To each their own :)

    Rob - That GT-R is my next door neighbor's car. He's been driving the wheels off of it. I'm surprised at how big the car seems, but it does look much better in person than in pictures.

    Not in Dallas but two interesting cars in front to the Four Seasons in Austin over the weekend, a SLR and a Diablo GT. The Diablo had black dealer tags.

    Black/Stainless Rolls Phantom, southbound on Summit, crossed in front of me at Lancaster. Made the C6 Vette beside it look almost tiny. Very imposing car.
