    Other than the F458 being unbelievable to see. I saw what I would say would be even rarer to see than it....a Noble M12 GTO-3R on I-10 and the Beltway. It was simply amazing to see in person.

    Also saw a Lotus Evora.

    Hello fellow FChaters,

    I'm new to these forums, but I'm a veteran car spotter. Infact, if you drive a Ferrari or other nice car, I've probably spotted and taken a picture of it. But I've never spotted an Enzo or a Veyron in Houston. Does anyone know where I might see either of these two cars in Houston?

    There's been an Enzo at Cars and Coffee, and an FXX was at Franco's last Ferrari Festival in Highland Village on Westheimer.

    I have a box of pieces off the burned one, in my garage.....broken wheel fragments, a melted glob of the engine block......some CF shards and bits....

    Saw a Pontiac Solstice yesterday with a 430 "style" front end....

    Caught my eye when I saw it coming thinking what is up with this 430?

    Pretty nicely done. Don't know if it some type of kit or not, but definitely eye catching

    I was on I10 ~9.30am and one of the kids said "Dad look its a car just like ours"

    Orange 670SV with big decal and plate "SV 670"

    Today I saw a black convertible granturismo (the grancabriolet, right? that just sounds funny for some reason), a red 360 spider, grey AMV8, and a grey Rossion q1 -the one that goes to C&C.

    It's a GranCabrio. Did you see it at the Starbucks at Uptown Park? That's where I saw a black GranCabrio.

    Heading out to Clear Lake last night around 8pm, black R8 on 45 exiting 59. They look amazing at night behind you with the LED's. Great looking car.

    Well, I've got a picture of the GranCabrio.

    I've seen it here before a few times. I'm always spotting in the area, so it rarely goes missed.

    i know these aren't in houston, but i just took a trip to paris and someone from the royal family was staying at the same hotel and brought their fleet....I thought you guys would appreciate these esp the modded ENZO and the gemballa avalanche 911!

    ps that mini cooper is diamond studded the valet told me it was his daughters, the license plate and rims had real diamonds,so over the top it was hilarious, good to know our weekly gas fillups are going to a good cause

    +1 at first glance the enzo reminded me of the enzos built out of legos. It looks bad
