    I spotted myself driving a Murci around Darnestown today. :D

    1st one delivered in the US, through Algar (2nd one was the one through Ferrari of Beverly Hills a week ago).

    1st North American delivery was through Ferrari Quebec (delivered at Mont Tremblant - there are photos and videos of the delivery floating around). Funny how the Canucks got a LaF before we did.

    Also heard that there are 2 McLaren P1s coming to DC (delivered by McLaren Philly).

    There is a slight twist to that story. The story I've heard is that the one in Canada and the one Algar got was the same car. The owner had it shipped to Canada first so he could put it through the ringers somewhere there (track perhaps?). Then it was shipped to Algar for final delivery matters before it was trucked down to MD where it would spend it's life in a "museum quality collection" and would not be driven much.

    Maybe more, they own the store down there too and I think they're getting something like 15 of them for.

    Looks like the car is being driven before being put in the museum:

    That's awesome! Glad to hear that it's being driven instead of just sitting somewhere never to be seen!

    Interesting because that's a Pittsburgh car. Delivered by Miller (for some reason) but has been roaming around the Delaware and Maryland beaches.

    Nero 599 with red calipers headed west on I66 at The Plains. Weird it had rather in-larged Scuderia fender shields.

    Yup, that's the 458 spider that belongs to the owner of Main Street Tickets in Gaithersburg. I believe he owns or co-owns a bar in Clarendon as well. The spider is yellow underneath, and is a black interior with yellow stitching/cavallinos.
