    599 and a purple Elise running down I-10 yesterday. Easy to spot since i was stuck in traffic going the other way.

    I don't think so. I saw a "regular" 599 in Baton Rouge recently on Florida Blvd at some wholesaler that stocks convenience stores.

    Also saw this in Shreveport the other night (sorry for the photo quality, it was closing time)

    This ;)
    The way the dry sump is designed and they way they have the V10 crammed in the back of that thing there are all kinds of little nooks and crannies with their own drain plugs so you can be sure to get all the oil out. Let's just say it ain't a Jiffy Lube 5 minute special!

    Nothing much lately. Did see any older looking G-wagon this morning on I-10 in NO East, but then again pretty hard to tell the age on those things.

    Dan brought out his 599 GTO yesterday to C+C in BR. If you are reading this Dan, thanks a bunch. What a beautiful machine.

    A colleague in BR saw the aftermath; he said the story is it was racing a Mercedes and the driver lost control. Just hearsay though.
