I keep seeing a Bentley in the parking garage at the Pan Am Center on Poydras. I don't know enough about them to know what model though.

 

I saw a red 430 Berlinetta this morning on 610 headed east. Seeing all these cars when I'm in my work truck makes me sad...

 

You should put some Ferrari stickers on your work truck. Then somebody can spot you and say, "saw a work truck with Ferrari logos on it."

I saw a Lotus Elise today on Tchoupitoulas Street. I don't think I've ever seen one locally except at a car gathering.

 

Yellow GT3 on I-10 near Gramercy.

So pretty.

 

Orange Gallardo at Sports Authority on Vets this am

 

White Bentley GTC today at Fresh Market on 22. This was the tan top. I've also seen a GTC with a blue top around recently.

 

I've been seeing a white flying spur and a champagne colored bentley that is the older, larger design.

The convertible white one is at the condos at the lakefront a lot. I guess he lives there.

 

I saw three of those funky looking Porsche sedans around 6:00 this evening on I-10 eastbound near Siegen in BR. I'm not sure about them, but perhaps once they get all the tape and stuff off of them they'll look good.

 

Wow! Trailered or driving?

 

Following each other. . . must be some sort of long-term test. I know they were getting a lot of stop-and-go time for sure

But yeah it was pretty cool, I can't remember seeing any pre-production type cars before. My girlfriend was stunned when I asked her "what the hell kind of car is that?"

 

I saw 'em this morning in NOLA, around 9 AM. I was driving down Poydras towards the river and as I passed South Peters (next to Loews Hotel) I saw one at the light. I looked in the rearview mirror and saw three or four of them file thru when the light changed.

Before the Pcar spot I saw a red 430 eastbound on the hi-rise around 8:30 AM. Ended the day seeing a black Bentley Conti 4-door at the Harrah's Hotel.

 

had a red/tan 360 spyder parked out front of Rocky's Pizza on magazine the other day and just saw a 430 spyder parked out front of a house on state street by Tulane. Both beautiful.

 

Sunday night in Baton Rouge I saw two Ferraris within 10 minutes of each other. One was a beautiful red Testarossa on Nicholson, and the other was a nice blue 400i (I think) on Brightside.

Oh, and here's some pictures I took with my cell phone Saturday in the FQ:

I thought Franco had Challenge rear grill?

 

Based on the license plate I'm guessing he's the same guy that owns this (he did a good job on getting the same prefix on both cars, but should have held out one more spot to get 599!)

Not his car.

 

I saw a yellow 360 spyder in the turning lane on 190 in front of the northpark carwash in Covington.

 

That was me in the yellow spider. I had to drive in for a lunch meeting at Dakota.

 

Red Testarossa getting onto I12 off of Causeway this weekend. Sparta, zat you? Good looking car if I might say so.

 

Saw a red 430 w/challenge grill being driven on St. Charles by a younger Asian looking gentleman two nights ago.

 

Probably me if it was Sat around 1230 -1300 . Thanks for the compliment. I will be driving it more now that Enzo wants a ride to school in it every morning. Of course he only gets a ride if he gets a smiley face on his paper from school the day before so it may stay parked for awhile

 

Chip off the old block, eh?

 

Pretty much

 

Do yourselves a favor and stop in at the Mercedes dealership on Vets in Metairie. You will NOT be disappointed. That's all I'm saying.
