    You're right. It is a nice car. But the one we have here on display at the autoshow as we speak is a little too "pimped-out" for my liking. Bright red with a white and red interior. *Yuk*

    A classic red on tan would do fine. Great spotting by the way.

    That one probably is a Diablo replica which was on the Italian Car Show last year.

    Two nights ago parked in Yaletown:

    1 Orange Lotus Esprit V8
    1 Black Gallardo

    My father spotted a dark silver Carrera GT on great northern way sometime this week? Is that Carrera GT back in town from its repairs in Germany?

    Heres the deal on that car...My friend saw it at BCIT the other day....they were useing the alignment rack there because MCLs alignment rack will not work with the 20 inch wheels ( weird eh?) anyways...the car still has a banged up underbody and rocker panels.... The porsche tech said it will cost 80gs to fix it ... So i don't think the car ever went to Germany... that was just a rumour

    456M GT on Granville at #2 road in Richmond two days ago. 456's are such a rare sight in Vancouver

    Grigio Ingrid, eh? If so, I'm sure that's the one that Brian Jessel had on its floor for quite some time, a few years ago.

    Yes, rare sight of an incredible car (love that much more than the 612).

    Finally I spot another CS on Vancouver streets.

    1 Silver 360 Challenge Stradale on Denman turning onto Robson.

    I'm glad that they were able to finally sell one of those. The 360 CS is such a magnificient car it shouldn't be living in a showroom.

    It didn't have the stripe. The red one that they still have in stock (why oh why hasn't anybody bought it yet I don't understand) has the stripe.

    I also spotted this over the course of this week:

    1 Orange Lotus Esprit V8
    1 Silver 360 spider
    1 black Gallardo

    I also see so many AMG's around here. I have a friend who resides here in Vancouver but travels down to Southern California regularly and he believes that Vancouver has more AMG's per capita than Southern California. I see at least 10 to 20 AMG's everyday now and the most popular being the SL55.

    Lots of Porsche were spotted tonight.
