    Possibly so...I'm 95% sure that this one was red/white stripes, though.

    Just got home from my drive and not only did I see several Fcars, I also saw two fellow fchatters.

    Hwy1 Northbound: Red 355 Coupe (gave me a thumbs up), Black 328 (did not say hi) and black ZO6 (new one).

    While on 92E I saw Arun (Baasha) and Mike (Software) parked with some modified NSXs in the parking lot by the 92/35 junction.

    Ended up going with them to Stanford Mall after.

    Also saw a silver/gray Solstice on 92E - guy driving.

    LOL! Didn't even think about it at the time :)

    I think they ran into Mike's old NSX buddies while they were on their drive, and ended up going for a run together. The NSX guys actually went their own way when I saw them on 92.

    Forgot to mention: I also saw a red 360 spyder with 19" HRE's on University.
    I think he joined one of Arun's drives before.

    Red 348 on Green Valley Road (El Dorado Hills) Sunday afternoon on my way to lunch. Spoke with him for a bit, sounds like he will be a new member of our driving group when the weather gets better. Said he puts 10-15k miles on the 348 per year. No cats, plus had some exhaust brand I've never heard of...sounded pretty sweet.

    Sunday 3pm. Red 308 on HWY 1 North, near Pacifica. Gave me a wave, and I waved back (I was in the F355).

    Arun and I decided to go take a drive. So we started out from the Stanford shopping center and went up into the hills. We stopped at some stop to relax for a few minutes, and about 5 NSX's rolled up to the stop sign in front of us and saw me. They all pulled into the rest area and we talked a while. We told them we were headed in a certain direction and they were headed the same way, so they joined us for a few miles, then headed back to wherever they were meeting that day. What are the odds? Then, when we were just leaving another stop, we see a Modena rolling up to a stop sign in front of that place, and it was Alex! I think I'm going to buy a lottery ticket today...

    Just saw a Red/Tan 360 spider on Columbus St. in North Beach around 12:30pm.

    It sounded SICK!

    I see a F-car around Palo Alto maybe once every 3 months. On Sunday, I saw a red 360 on Alameda de las Pulgas (I was in my 430) and a Silver 360 spider with black top up on El Camino Real heading north through Atherton (not in my 430).

    What looked to be a red slr, I didn't catch it well so maybe I am wrong? Never heard of or seen a red one around. On El Camino, as I was SB from Burlingame maybe a half-mile south of Park.
