White Lotus Exige last week Indy southside. First white one I've seen. Also this pair spotted today downtown during lunch:

Yes, it was a spur of the moment thing but we played with cars during lunch.

 

I saw a new ACR viper yesterday.

 

Grigio Ingrid 612 Scaglietti in Birmingham on Friday night.

Also, there's a 365 Daytona Spider in the back of Cauley. This one looked a lot more real than the last one I saw!

 

My sons were down at Indy over the weekend for the race, and saw a red GTR being driven in town.

 

Red F430 Coupe spotted at Eddie Merlots restaurant in Fort Wayne last week Thursday. Driven by a middle aged gentleman with a much younger, very good looking companion. (Actually, she drove leaving the restaurant) Michigan plates....

Ocean Prime on 16 and Coolidge seems to be the new place to eat. Last week Friday there was a dark gray F430 Spider and a new white Bentley Azure valeted. Thursday a silver 360 Spider, Friday the same gray F430. Today I think I might've seen JeffB and his brother as there was a black 599 and a yellow F430 Spider with the rear challenge grill, although I saw them there at separate times.

Anyways, there was a red F430 Spider at Capital Grille, a silver R8 and black Lotus Elise on Woodward, and numerous Bentleys and Maserati Quattroportes.

Yesterday there was a blue with white stripes Ford GT at Flemings, a black on black ACR SRT-10 Coupe Viper on Old Woodward, and a black Ferrari 348 also on Old Woodward.

Haha, my apologies if that seems jumbled and out of order.

 

Well, not exactly a spot, but I went to check out the new LP560 at the dealer in Troy yesterday. They have a white one and a grey one. Couldn't take them out yet, but will be able to when they get a test model in. These two were just for looking, though it was pouring rain out anyways.

Was able to start it up though and get inside. Great exhaust note. Love it.

Though not totally different than the old one, for some reason the LP560 makes it look rather tame and dated. One hot car.

They will be there for about a week, then they are going elsewhere.

 

I grabbed a bite to eat at Ocean's yesterday. Who valets there? LOL. There is a MASSIVE parking lot right next to it.

 

Saturday night:

Red 360 Spider at Ocean Prime
Blue AM V8 Vantage at Ocean Prime
New white Bentley Arnage at Ocean Prime
A few Ford GTs and 5 or 6 SRT-10 Vipers in Birmingham
And this on Woodward

Hi, i am a new member. I see this Murc around once every 5 weeks during the summer on Woodward



A couple F430s on Woodward

 

Nice pics. That Murcielago is a dealer car. I saw it parked in front of Lamborghini of Troy last wednesday. Gorgeous car; I wish there were more Murcielagos around.

 

Great day today!

Started off with a new black Gallardo LP560-4 at Capital Grille.
There were 3 silver Audi R8s in Birmingham, along with some Bentleys, Rolls Royces, a Quattroporte and a yellow Gallardo Superleggera.
Red 308 parked along Woodward. Red 599GTB and a grey F430 crusing on Woodward. Also a yellow Exige.
And just when I thought the best was behind me, Ocean Prime delivers a DB9, 360 Spider, black R8, and these two:

Edit: I believe this is Ken's Enzo since it has MI plates, whereas the last one I saw had Ontario plates and is said to belong to Tom Celini. Correct me if I'm wrong.

do they park those on the big beaver side? I drove by after woodward tonite but didn't see anything. I don't think that is ken's btw. I did see the 599 cruisin' woodward. It was awesome.

 

Yep, the Big Beaver side is the best way to see them in passing. They keep the special cars up front by the front door and valet booth though.

 

Today i took a short drive to go visit my grandparents,and while passing through Southgate at one of those "Family doctors office's",not a spectacular business just a cheap one with a triple black 355 spider sitting in the corner of the lot.A ferrari by any means is rare near me.

Also,on the way to Meadowbrook last week,there was a blue with white stripes Ford GT parked on a side street.Cameras battery died so just the front nose on my iphone.A beautiful car!We had to make a detour to Circuit City for a camera battery and on the way there we saw a black with silver stripes Ford GT,silver over red Ferrari Mondial,red over tan ferrari 360 spider,and a white Rolls-Royce Phantom.Not to mention the hundreds of exotics filling the Meadowbrook parking lot.

Another crazy spot friday on our way to watch the new Batman at the I-MAX in Dearborn and pulling out of the proving grounds was a Ford GT Heritage edition in the gulf sheme.Amazing looking.If im not mistaken,this could have been the same one at the downriver cruise in Southgate in June.Either way,looked absolutely amazing!

Does anyone have any impressions on the new Lincoln MKS?I have loved that car since the beginning.Im trying to get my dad to get into one but hes wrapped into a lease with his current car.Idk if theres a way out of a lease?

Last night downtown Indianapolis I saw a very dirty black Ferrari 599 GTB parked on Meridian in front of St. Elmo's. Then today I saw a Ferrari 360 Modena that was either silver or Grigio Alloy with tinted windows on the north side of I-465 near the Michigan Road exit.

Stopped in to Ooley & Blackburn on the search for an early 360 Modena 6-speed and found they had: (1) Ferrari 360 Spider (Yellow/Black), (1) Ferrari 360 Spider (Black/Black), (1) Ferrari 456GTA (White/Tan), (1) Ferrari 456 (Silver/Black), (1) Ferrari F355 GTS (Red/Tan), and (1) Ferrari 348 Spider (Red/Tan)...among other spectacular cars.

 

Took a quick drive through Birmingham saw a white Elise,silver Flying Spur,black CGTC,black and silver Challengers,and a red 308.Not bad for a Sunday night..
