Spotters Thread #7

Tim,

I just got new tires today, went with the 295/35's on the rear. They fit perfect and look AWESOME....me likey long/wide time!!!!

Your car looked dazzling too. That was....er...my niece I was with, and I was pointing out your chrome wheels, badges and the F1 distinction. That is one stunning combination your cruising in my friend!

 

Nice choice on the rear tire size Steve - I'm running the same size on my 348 on 18x10s and loving it!

Cheers
Kevin

 

That car came from a collector who passed away in Rancho Santa Fe.

 

Spotted a Black 360 this morning in Orange on Santiago Canyon near the community college. It possibly had a red interior, but I'm not sure.

 

Oh. Wasn't the one at CC the one at Lambo of Beverly Hills ?

 

Today on the 101 in the SF Valley, a red Mondial Cab and a silver 360 Spyder.

 

Ferrari fever today. My 12 year old son, Jon, spotted the following while cruising in our f-car:
1) silver 355 Spider on the PCH in Malibu
2) rust Dino Gt parked on PCH in Malibu
3) red 360 Spider on Kanan in Agoura Hills
4) red Dino GT on Kanan in Agoura Hills
5) black Mondial at car detail in Malibu
6) yellow 355 GTS at car detail in Malibu
7) silver Dino GT on PCH in Malibu
8) black Mondial parked on PCH in Malibu

Three Dino's in one day. Wow!

Tim and Jon

 

A nice day in Malibu is always good for spotting!

 

Red/Black 360 going very slowly past my house (off Lost Hills Rd. in Calabasas) about 30 minutes ago.. No challenge grill, looked like the modular 5-spokes.

Jimmy? Fess up if it's you.. I'd be happy to have a conversation about it.. feel free to PM me.

Dude,

Go see if he's still around. It has only been a little over 2 hours...chances are he's still only a few miles away!

 

I think you still may be able to catch him if you jump on the 405 right now!

All I need is a "Short Sized" butterfly net!

 

(red) f40 on the 5 south right by the 8 today around 2:15. i was going the opposite way so i didnt get a good look, but the front didnt look quite right. the side and rear looked fine tho. might have been a kit car or replica?

 

This morning I spotted a red 355 Spider parked at UC Irvine.
I was shocked too see it and had to do a triple-take to believe my eyes...
Looked freakin awesome, but unfortunatly I had to get to class so I couldnt get a close look.
Whomever owned it must have guts to park it there as the spaces are tight and doors are often swinging into the neighbour.
I guess it might be someone's new toy because a lack of plates... but still what a risky place to park!

pretty cool white porsche 993 RS America on the 5 today. little old guy driving it with his even littler wife in the front seat

 

Saw a red 575 southbound on Sepulveda, black 355 berlinetta right behind what must have been a black CS (vents around the rear window) eastbound on Wilshire in the turn lane for Santa Monica Blvd. All c. 4:00PM ish Thursday 5-19. Got a nod from the bloke in the 355 - anyone here???

Cheers
Kevin

 

Were those Bugle Boy jeans you were wearing?

 

Must be some veiled commentary regarding your neighborhood - not my area so I don't get it....

I am insured, but not by Survival.

Edit: just reread my post and yeah, now I get it - FWIW I kept going on Wilshire as you would know.

 

Suck at keeping up with my spottings, but today's worth a mention, perhaps I'll try harder...so, today:

-red Mondial cab top-down on 405 S
-red Maranello 405N
-red 360 spider top-down 405N
-dark blue Diablo VT w/ wing 405N
I was going in the opposite direction for all of them.

Then, to top it all off, a red Daytona spider, top-down, on Inglewood Ave. in Redondo/Torrance. I pulled to the next lane as he passed by...mmm mmm, the sound, the smell...ooh ahh.

 

Red Enzo in Costa Mesa on Fairview Blvd around 11:30am

 

STUNNING red 512 BBI on Los Felliz blvd (the Costco & Best Buy area) filling up gas around 5:45 pm. Plates read: "512 BBI"

WOW! You made my month.

 

Silver 360 Spider 118 Freeway west going down the hill into Simi Valley around 5:15 this afternoon.

 

Went the a little plaze around Mulholland Dr and saw:

-RR Phantom with Sylvester Stalone getting driven shotgun.
-A BUNCH of Porsches (911 Turbo, GT3, GT2, Cayene Turbo)
-A BUNCH of Benzes (E55, CL65, SL65, S55, CLS 55)

Not ONE Ferrari....

 

RIGHT NOW!

A yellow 360 Modena (no challenge grill) with DC Motors plate on. Looks like a realtor's car... Saw it at a house that was doing a Open House on the 14th Street in Upland.

 

Black 360 Spider head south on 133 toward Laguna at 2:15pm, Saturday.
