    Saw a candy purple and white striped Shelby Cobra (replica/remake) in Dallas a few weeks ago. Just wanted to get this started...

    New blue Challenger in Addison Sunday at the Gasoline Alley Car Show. There was also a really nice '67 Camaro, yellow with black stripes.

    WOW, there's a tanker one here? I remember reading about those. They had 36 gallon tanks or something didn't they?

    Unless I'm mistaken, the same joke was just told 3 times in a row.

    This thread is a good idea, and should be made permanent.

    Separate Spotter Threads needed:

    -Ferrari only spots. This is a Ferrari board, everyone remember?

    -Other exotic, old and new, and contemporary-overpriced (Bentley, Aston, Maser) spots.

    -This thread: Vipers, old Muscle, cool late model, etc. I'll add hotrod Vettes and Mustangs to that.

    Spotted a very relatively clean bright red 88-89 Pontiac GTA on Hebron Pkwy & Hwy 121 in Carrollton today. You really don't see very many of those anymore. Looked bone stock & it had the period correct mesh wheels on it.

    Yes, very rare car. A 1963 version just sold at the Mecheim Auction for $1,050,000. The 63's aren't near as rare as this 64.

    Actually Tillman, if it was the same one I saw, it was a 2004.

    Did it have a white stripe down the side? If it did, It may be the ultra rare Workhorse version with the dual muffler-bearings.

    IMO one is enough as well, most people don't post with just a Viper anyways, it's usually accompanied with something else. I would like to enjoy everyone's spots without going through 3 threads.

    And to make this post appropriate, silver Viper Roadster (new gen) @ Best Buy @ Firewheel

    I made this topic so the people who hate to read about non-exotic spots, don't have to read them in the exotic spotter topic. I like to hear about ALL cool cars in DFW, so I'll obviously be checking both topics.

    Pickup trucks will need their own topic... that I'm not making.

    If just this thread becomes permanent, it's great progress.

    As I said before, this is a FERRARI board, and there should be a thread dedicated to Ferrari spots ONLY.

    I see new Masers, Astons, Bentleys, every day when I'm working, some when I'm not.
