Spring Spotters Thread

Red RT/10 with the top off yesterday turning left onto Eola from North Aurora Rd.

 

Black Gallardo near Chicago Exec on Willow ~4:30

 

Pearl White Gallardo Spyder parked in back of Volare in Oak Brook about 6:30pm, and a black Scud on 22nd half hour later.

 

Dark gray Gallardo heading south on Barrington rd, just before algonquin. Looked nice!

 

White 560 Gallardo spyder, black 599, silver V8 Vantage volante, black California, silver 550 all spotted yesterday afternoon in about 45 minutes.

 

Within the last 24 hours.

Is the Gallardo still exotic?

 

Is Tony Tag running down Division near the State St. Intersection on Tuesday about 6:45 PM considered a "spot?"

 

Pearl white (with some blue hues) DBS Volante on Ontario/Orleans.

 

Black California with top down.
Red 430 Spider with top down

Great day to take the top down and have fun.

 

RR Ghost in Viagra Triangle. Black .

Meh.

 

Good news it isnt the diff but an alignemnt tolerance change issue with the change from the P-Zero Rosso to the new P-Zero. Apparently the even put another cars diff in mine and didnt track down the problem til they swapped another cars wheels on. Always glad Billy is thorough.

 

Good question! They're becoming as common as a Corvette and, I don't know if I should say it, a Mustang too!

Not that a Mustang was ever considered exotic, nor the Corvette but, when you see many of the same cars in 1 day,as you queried Andreas, can any of them be considered "exotic"?

To me, an exotic is a car you rarely see. Back in the early 60s I owned a couple of E-Type Jags. If, in a years time, you saw another one on the road it was a rarity.....that's what I consider exotic!

Sparky

 

I could be mistaken... but I don't think Gallardos are as common as Corvettes...

 

Nah. They're still a lot more exotic than that.

I'm just jealous that the Gallardos are out to play while my 308 sits in the garage awaiting repair. For which I only got myself to blame for having been a procrastinator.

 

You didn't pay attention to the question, and the reply given with tongue-in-cheek.

 

Today North bound on LSD:

Light blue metallic VW Karman Spider

Can't remember how many decades it has been since I saw one last. If ever.

 

Most interesting sighting of the day was a Jag XK 140 in old english white over red interior. Spotted on Sheridan.

 

Rosso 430, top down on 94 around noon today by Tower road exit.

 

Acura NSX by the DuPage County Courthouse around 2:30 today.

A couple of cheating spots! I picked up my kids from Grandma and Grandpa's and my son was in full freak out. He spotted a bunch of cars, including 2 Ferraris at Euroquipe while they were walking to get ice cream at the Colonial. Of course, we had to go back so he has some new pics for his website www.nathanielwaldschmidt.com .

Thanks badges. That's my 348! Finally. I been waiting two years to get spotted, now I can part with the car in peace. Porsche Panamera on I88 east bound this morning. I also checked out your son's website. Where did you get the pic with the F40?

 

As payment for the spot, my son says he gets to have a ride in your car!! Your car will be next week's spot of the week, so you'll be famous as well! The F40 was at Continental when we had our boy's day at the exotics. It was the first one I've ever seen. That was also the day we saw the Enzo and SuperVeloce Lamborghini.
