    Saw my first 458 on the road yesterday n redwood city - looked like a test-drive. From the dealer down the street. A minute later saw a shiny maroon 430 spider. Rosso with a thin green/white/red stripe down the middle reminiscent of a challenge stradale. So much prettier in person then in the pics.

    Made a mistake yesterday. The car at Sport Haus was not a Bugatti Veyron. The car is called an Arex. Here's a pic: http://www.sporthausinc.com/event.php

    Went to Sacramento today to get the Mini serviced. Saw a TDF/beige Ferrari 355 Spider (sounded beautiful) on Fulton by Niello BMW/Mini/Maserati. Saw a yellow Lamborghini Murcielago heading west on I-80 by Colfax; I was heading east.

    When I saw it last night, I was traveling on the freeway and the car was in the showroom. I could only see the front; mainly the headlights. The long, flat rectangular shape of the headlights made me think it was a Veyron...stupid, I know. Saw it up close today and realized I made a huge mistake. :(

    Along with these spots, I just spotted a grey/silver stripe Dodge Viper RT/10. It's sorta rainy in Reno right now and the clouds are very dark...really made the color look good on this car.
