    After last night spots my hopes were up on viewing some nice cars during the day and I was not dissapointed. First up was a black Lotus Esprit V8 parked at the Quicktrip in the Vinings area. Second was a white Gallardo roadster parked at Phipps valet. Third was a Maserati Granturismo at the rear of Phipps. I heard this car before viewing it. Never has a Granturismo sounded this good.The bark under low rpm was mean. Upon inspection of the car the rear tail pipes say it all. Fourth was the black 355 F1 spider that Andrew spotted at Lenox as well. Fifth was a blue Ferrari 308 GTB on Peachtree. Sixth was a black F430 coupe. However I spotted it on the road in the dark.

    I guess that's one of the things they made better on the Gran Turismo S. I really like those wheels too!

    This is my first post on the forum so.... hello! I have been reading this thread for awhile and I have seen some very good pics. I want to share the pics I took of the MC12 at New York Prime in Buckhead awhile back. The car was purchased at FOA as stated somewhere earlier in the thread. They were having trouble with the cars electrical system for awhile and they had a lot of difficulty contacting Maserati for proper instructions to fix the car. They eventually found out that it was a small, inexpensive fuse causing all of the fuss.

    Very nice photos, and please let us know when they were taken. We haven't had any confirmed sightings of that car since August, and even then it was at Ferrari of Atlanta. I haven't heard of a single street sighting since I saw it in September 2007. I'm embarrassed to say I had to Google New York Prime and I had no idea there was even a restaurant back there. I'm going to have to go by it all the time now!

    I go there every once in a while but have never seen anything there, their parking area is really small and almost impossible to turn around in without getting in somebody's way.

    Only one spot from today as the weather was nasty all day, a Gallardo Nera, #45 of 185.

    The Mc12 pics were taken after August for sure but I will have to check the exact date of the pictures when I get to my other computer. I have plenty of pics of exotics I have spotted around Atlanta that I will post soon. I have seen a red Enzo on the road a long time ago going down old alabama road by the Falls of Autry mill. I have also seen a red/black Veyron around that part of town as well as multiple Murci's, Gallardo's, 599's, etc.

    Can't wait to see those pics!

    Another day with crappy weather today so the only shot I got for today was this SRT/10 Coupe. These things are getting to be pretty common around town here recently.

    We have long been aware of at least one Veyron in Atlanta, but no one here has ever photographed it. I always suspected it lived north of town, and I'm glad to have some general idea of where. Still, there could be a 250 GTO up there - I'm not driving past the Perimeter on the off-chance of seeing something cool. That said, I couldn't be happier that you've shared all this, Luv2XcelR8, and I'm looking forward to seeing your photos!

    Last time I was at FoA, you guys mentioned it was here under show and display and that the owner almost never drove it. Now that it's gone I feel very lucky to have seen it when I had the chance!

    I will not be able to post spotted pics until I can get to my other computer but I can share these pics taken from my driveway...Also, there is an Alfa Romeao 8C Competizione at FOA right now which is a pretty rare spot.

    Forum rules. The administrator's feeling is that if they're locally hosted they'll be around for years, preserving them, whereas if they're hosted elsewhere, links break and photos disappear rendering various discussions useless when doing research. Cool shots - that DB7 Vantage is very nice!

    Yea, it was at the open house they had. I actually went by there today after the Caffeine & Octane to snap up some pics and was surprised to see it still in the showroom......or possibly another on sale.

    It is the same car. The owner has decided to keep it in the collection. The car is absolutely incredible looking. The color is fantastic. If you have not seen it you should take a look, it is something to be seen.

    I think that's a car Horse-power would've definitely photographed - he probably just didn't catch it! That's the problem with the Black Series - it really blends in. Otherwise, it's the perfect car...
