    The best I've seen is an Enzo, a purple Bugatti Veyron in Midtown a few months back and a red Ferrari F50 that i've seen parked front of our building a few times. Moved here from West LA, home of the exotics, and I think there is plenty of eye candy in NYC. I don't think a day goes by that I don't see an exotic (excluding Bentley, RR and Maybach). I guess you have to actually live in the city to spot them easily.

    Yeah, living in the city helps.


    Living in/being in Greenwich helps too :p Even more so than Long Island, IMO.

    Not of the F50 and Enzo as I was driving while my friend was taking pics of the F50 and my friend snapped a pic of the Enzo as it drove by since my camera was in the car. He will post them tomorrow sometime. Here is the CS and CGT with straight pipes i saw.

    Come on...if you were a meter maid would you really give this guy a ticket?! Look at her...she is gorgeous.

    I often see the rear wing up while parked. Is this by default? It looks a lot more balanced and aggressive while engaged.
