    After seeing your car for the first few times, I didn't think I have a good enough reason to post, but you literally make me jump off my seat at work just to get a view from behind when you're at the stop light.

    I just opened up a store (next to the Cleaners) at Imperial/Stevens Creek Blvd. and am fortunate enough to see your car daily. If you are ever in the neighborhood again, please, please let me take a look at your car. That will certainly make my day. And yes, I'm desperate. Your car is amazing!

    Thanks much.

    Hey Brian, come by Santana Row on Saturdays between 8-10am, and you might see a 430 Spider if you are lucky. But there are many other cars to oogle over :)

    Nice SPOT!

    I bet it's the same car someone saw near Bradshaw Road about a year ago.

    An S7 would indeed be sweet for our Sept 17 exotic drive!

    I saw a car I'd never heard of or seen before on the back of a flat bed tow truck on 680 south in Fremont. It said Raptor on the back and had a Zagato "Z" on the side. I took a picture on my crappy cell phone camera while driving, so it's not a good picture.
    [​IMG]A little web search shows that this is a one-off on a Diablo chassis that was shown at Geneva and then sold. http://www.lambocars.com/rel/raptor.htm How starnge to see a one-off car not in an enclosed trailer! Does this car live locally? It had no plates on it.

    Is this a red/tan 430 spider? I see one quite often as well, and I was on my way home from somewhere and saw it parked with the top down at midnight in front of Paul and Eddie's in Cupertino about a month ago - glad to see someone who's not afraid to drive his 430.

    AutoXer - thanks for the invite.
    lateralus - I think you're right, it's the red/tan F430 spider - what a lucky guy!

    A little off topic but I work 7 days a week and it sucks for now, no play time.
    Sun, Mon, Tues, Wed I'm here in Cupertino.
    Thurs, Fri, Sat, I'm in Walnut Creek.

    If Santana Row meets occur on Sunday sometimes, I could squeeze in a little time since I'm down here.

    For all you exotic car owners, I don't know how you all do it! You guys must be all very smart and very fortunate. I'm 35 with 4 kids and don't see owning an exotic anytime soon (still dreaming). Found out the hard way that kids are very expensive. It's time to work smarter rather than harder. Working harder doesn't always pay off.
