    No, I know Brit Auto. They do most of the work on my E-type. Might the car belong to Ron Sturgeon?

    Well, that's one way to keep your car away from everybody else.

    Said no parking... I've seen it in the parking lot so I can only assume he works/owns Ethan Allen.

    There was a GT500 @ Firewheel too, but that doesn't belong on this thread.

    One "direct" spot and one "related to me" spot:
    My spot - Black Aston AMV8 convert safely parked out by itself in front of Ol' South Pancake House on University........

    Enthusiastically related to me (several times) - Charcoal Veyron, still on paper tags, pulled over on I-30, under Hulen bridge, on Thursday. Anybody with a new toy in FW? or just an unfortunate "Welcome to FW, thanks for contributing to the budget on your way to Midland"?
    It would be nice to have one closer than Big D, but even the cars I already KNOW are here rarely every get out.

    I'll send her the link to see if it might be the one, but she was sure it was still on its paper tag. That pic is from 2007; I remember hearing about that one being spotted there more than once.

    I think he has family over in that area. He stops in here every now and then, if it's the same guy. Not many GT's in Rowlett, so I'm assuming....

    Was back at AAC on Saturday to get two banners down before the game. A graphite Aston, just glimpsed the roof, so not sure the model, passed me on Victory around 8:00 in the morning. It sounded great though...

    I think the only local GT we have is a white/blue one that I've seen about 3 times. Was hauling ass across I-30 one day months back.

    I've heard of the white one here... I saw a solid black one on Bush right at Firewheel once, and my friend has also seen the yellow one in rowlett...

    Saw the black SLR McLaren and black 599 that seem to pal around with each other where ever they go. Saw them on Lover's and Douglas.

    Dark blue 612 in my parking garage yesterday. Looked like it had dealer plates on it, but I had cars behind me and couldn't stop to look. It was gorgeous.

    First one I've seen since the first Dallas delivery car that wasn't in a showroom.

    Burgundy over black Mayback 57s with black/chrome wheels at the Uptown Car Wash around 11:00, then a black Maser QP at the light in front of it. A few minutes later, watched a red 430 hum north on 35 in front of AAC.

    Among others. I've seen a fly yellow gallardo roadster and a yellow murci as well. There was a new black Bentley GT on Yellow Jacket and Ridge Rd in Rockwall a couple days ago, too. There are a couple Diablos, an Enzo, a couple 308's, more than enough vipers, as well as a classic shelby club. One of the vette guys out here supposedly is picking up a ZR1 soon. Plus, there are the GT's and a couple Pbug GT3's.
    The car scene out here is way too elusive. They are seen, but rarely...

    May have been what I saw on 35. I was a few hundred yards away when I saw it. I heard it first though. Was heading that way...

    Yesterday, a blue Gallardo spider spotted in the parking lot of the Tom Thumb on Northwest Hwy. across from Northpark Mall.
    Today, a red Ferrari 360 Spider in the left turn lane of Northwest Hwy at Boedeker.
    A good weekend considering the gloomy, threatening weather.
