Spotter's thread

Two Black Bentley's. One GTC and one Flying Spur. Plus red NSX.

 

a friend of mine at the audi dealership let me go see an Audi R8 tucked away in the garage

it looks more gorgeous in person than any photo i've ever seen of it
especially the back end

o.o

it was the first time i've ever seen one in person
hopefully the first if many

 

Black BMW Z8 on St. Charles & Eighth around 2pm. Orange Lamborghini Murcielago Roadster (couldn't tell at a glance if it was an LP640) with powdercoated wheels on Veterans near Borders at 4pm or so. Who owns that?

 

...red 328 GTB on Gause near I-10 interchange, today @ 5 PM.

 

Black NSX on Bluebonnet today around 12:15.

 

Correct

 

Yellow Diablo VT across from Walgreens in Metairie near Harry's Ace Hardware. I personally did not see it; I heard through the grapevine.
LA plates. Anybody we know?

 

That car has been discussed here before. I've seen it several times but never close up and each time it just doesn't look/sound right. Just something off on the proportions and ride height IIRC. I'm calling kit car until proven otherwise.

I know the car...it's real dave

happy new year!

 

We may be talking about 2 different cars. Now that I think about it there is a yellow Diablo (real) running around town. (don't know if it's a VT or not). However, the "other" yellow Diablo I saw, must be out in Kenner it's where I usually spot it, definitely had some wheelbase and ride height issues when I drove past it. Like I said, I could be wrong, all sightings have been driveby's.

But I bow to your "in the know"-ness!

Silver Porsche GT3 at Siegen/Perkins.

 

ehhh.....the car i'm thinking of is on your side of the river.

 

Gotta be 2 different cars then. The one I'm questioning has been around Kenner/Williams Blvd every time I have seen it.

 

DeLorean on Hwy. 190 East of Krotz Springs. It has a few flat tires and is very dusty.

Red F430 parked on Royal street today near the Montleone... maybe around 4:30 p.m.-ish.... Any clue?

 

Nope. None. Not at all.

It's always interesting to see a steaming turd still in the place where it was laid a year or so ago.

 

Let's see, at any one time you can see dozens of Ferraris on Royal St, so it could be anyone!

 

I bid 50 cents. Really that belongs on the POS spotters thread. even if it was in showroom condition

 

Well, to be completely fair to the owner whom I'm sure is looking for his tur...er..baby, he probably forgot what year he parked it in!

 

That would explain the dust .

 

You know, we're making fun of this POS but it could have the untra rare Member's Only jacket and Oingo Boingo cassette package in it. BTW, don't ask me how or why, but I was in the Houston DMC "factory" before. All I can say is WOW! And we'll leave it at that!

Dave

 

Oingo Boingo huh? No Wang Chung?

 

My dad sent me this photo from New Orleans, he was down for the football game...

lovely 430
