    Hi all! Saw a Red/Tan 430 Spider (top down, ofcourse, on such a beautiful day) at Spring Rd. and St. Charles Rd. (By York H.S.) in Elmhurst today around noon.....Lookin' good!

    Orange Lotus Elise with a white "FVMC #20" Sticker on the door in downtown Elmhurst today, just a few minutes earlier.(Running in some kind of Rally, perhaps?)

    Red/Tan 348GTS on St.Charles Rd. just East of County Farm Rd. in Far western Wheaton/West Chicago today around 4:45PM.(Targa top off, too.)

    Other than that....Haven't seen quite so many exotics running around this Summer as in past years...:(

    haha yeah. I post my pics all over the web and a lot of owners don't want their plate numbers on the sites. I just do it as a default for their privacy. By the way I am typing this from my new itouch and I seriously love this thing!

    Did Gold Coast let you take pics or did you shoot while they weren't looking? ;)

    Thanks :) Their new Lambo showroom had only the 2 cars in it and was pretty empty. All the employees were standing over by the Veyron so they weren't really looking at the Lambos. I'm pretty sure they saw me taking the pictures though and just ignored it.

    So anybody recognize themselves or a friend in one of my pictures?

    All blk/blk? It's pretty strange, all I've seen is the price go up and be inconsistant amongst various places.
