    Black Aston Martin (they all look the same & all start with a "V") on 150 in Kernersville. Black BMW i8 on W. Market St. getting onto 68 in Greensboro this aftrn. Sharp looking car, very futuristic.

    Four Ferrari sightings this weekend:

    Saturday:

    -Dark blue 458 near Jetton Road in Cornelius. Probably the same one I saw a week or so ago.
    -Black California on Jetton Road in Cornelius.

    Yesterday:
    -Red California at the intersection of Rea Road and Highway 51
    -Yellow 360 at a small shopping center on the corner of Elm Lane and Bryant Farms Road. I've seen this one here before but it has been a long time, good to see it's still around!

    Not a Ferrari, but passed & was subsequently followed by a GORGEOUS dark green metallic Viper last night. Think I "blew by him" doing maybe 50 in a 45 zone (he was probably doing 48), and then spent the next 15 to 20 miles in 19E between Spruce Pine and Burnsville with him a few cars back. LOVELY car!

    Yesterday saw the same bright blue Aston Martin V8 Vantage a couple of times. First was heading south on Davis Dr in Morrisville, and second was at Publix at Davis Dr/High House Rd at about 5:45 or so. Really cool color in person.

    Thursday @ 8:10AM on NC55 heading south into Apex, a white McLaren MP4-12C with yellow / goldish colored brake calipers. Nice sighting to start the day!

    On the way home @ 5:00ish (NC55), old school red Viper. Nice way to end the day!

    In about 5 minutes this morning on Six Forks (I was out in the 328) I saw two Teslas, a Maserati, a blue Viper and a lovely white Fiero!

    Lucky you :) It's cool that you're on here and caught that. It's kind of funny, I actually mentioned to the driver that I rarely ever see Vantages around the Raleigh area. He said something like "really? I park next to one at work" then showed me a pic of his car parked next to yours.

    Here's one of the pics from when I saw it. Decided to cover the plate, but I have to say, as a whole, Aston Martin owners are probably the most creative when it comes to custom plates.

    Funny thing is we haven't met. He must have had a delusional moment the first time I parked next to him. Did he show you my plate?

    Haha. No he didn't, but I saw your car a couple of times when Cars & Coffee used to be in Cary, and also at the meet at Brier Creek last December, so I've seen your plate a couple times. I have to say, I've seen a lot of good plates, but I think yours probably takes the cake for not only creativity but also managing to cram all that into eight characters. :D

    Dang. I drove around in Raleigh last night hoping I'd see something, and all that appeared to be out was a white GranTurismo Convertible on Glenwood, a black GranSport Spyder on Wade Ave, and a couple Quattroportes at North Hills.

    Saw a Red 458 Spider on Randolph Road on Saturday. I think the convertible top was broken, because the top was not down. Poor guy.....

    Greetings from Seattle! Sorry we will miss the FCA crew in Asheville, but we're here for my first visit to the Pacific Northwest. Saw a black 458 at SeaTac which I SWEAR had Tom W at the wheel. Audi R8 followed by an R8 ragtop and then an RX7 twin Turbo.

    Hey, I'm in Seattle too! I'm going to Exotics at Redmond Town Center tomorrow morning and I heard a LaFerrari might show up.

    Sunday: Yellow Murcielago LP640 in Redmond. And, a silver Porsche 959 at Porsche Bellevue! Monday: Blue Aston Martin V8 Vantage, green Bentley Contintental GT, black Bentley Continental GTC, and a bunch of G Wagons in downtown Seattle.
    Today (Friday): Champagne Maserati GranTurismo S a few miles outside of the city.

    Sunday, August 2nd, in Hickory (on way to mountains):

    Beige Aston Martin Vanquish (current model) with a SC plate at the Veterinary Referral Hospital of Hickory at 2:00 or so. Probably the last time and place I would ever expect to see an Aston.
