Portland Spotter's Thread #4

We had a great run today through wine country... Otherwise, I'm sure you would be posting up your Sonny spotting...

 

LMAO!!!! that is some funny ****

 

Giallo Fly 355 spyder @ cornelius pass & imbrie drive... just minutes ago.

At Mile Post 13, just before the I205 split, at 1:05 PM saw my FIRST TESLA!!!

Saw him coming in the mirrors of my slow truck, first thought it was a Lotus...

But as he passed, it was a dark green (almost black) Tesla! I had to exit on the
205 and he kept going South on I5 - hopefully had an outlet in his future.

Way cool! Anyone here by chance?

Spotted a red Mondial cab head West on 26 about 5pm today..

 

Black Ferrari heading south on I5 right now at about 7:20. My mom called and told me she was following it. Couldn't tell me anymore than it was black. Then she flipped out on the phone when the car accelerated and shot flames out of the exhaust. Needless to say, she isn't around cool cars much.

 

Saw a 40th anniversary Murcielago on Burnside and a black 430 spider on Broadway this evening.

 

Good spots the past couple of days:
- A stunning & shiny black R8 in Tigard/Beaverton neighborhoods on Walnut St.
- Red NSX. Not normally "spot worthy" IMO but had some insane sounding exhaust so I took notice.
- Yesterday on Lower Boones close to Club Sport saw a brand new black Maybach roll by (unsure the model). Very impressive car.

Bonus, "shooting-fish-in-a-barrel-spot": the parking lot at the Trail Blazer's training facility is pretty impressive - R8, GTR, lots of big MBs... all black vehicles.

 

I don't know if this counts, but a beautifully restored Triumph TR3A was out on Wednesday getting off 26 westbound at the Sylvan exit. I lowered my window (he didn't have any) and we exchanged a few words about how it was a great day weather-wise to be out and about.

 

I think that's very cool!

 

While lost in Lake Oswego today I spotted the 575M at the Country Club while trying to turn around.

Rosso 360 Spider at 12th and Everett.

 

Spotted same car about the same time, and then saw Alex walk by cafe Umbria after he spotted it...

 

Nice spot . I didn't look in the cafe so I didn't spot you this time.

 

Saw a Skittle Green Lotus Exige at Murry and Farmington in Beaverton around 5pm.

 

I see so many F-Cars in PDX metro area these days that I no longer post sightings unless they go by my house, or close by.

Yesterday... red and blue blurs as I was coming home... 308? 355?

 

Jonny!!! We got spotted!!! LoL.

 

That's actually a first.

Hopefully we weren't too loud.

 

Red 348 Targa leaving Downtown on 26W just now.

 

How about upping the ante then and include pictures as proof of spot.

If a couple more are interested, I will start a thread called "Portland Spotter's Thread [Picture Required]". Who is interested?

Blue 355 spyder (Mr. Prada, I presume?) near the airport.

 

Indeed! Just dropped the Dentist (my brother) off at PDX for a dental conference in Phoenix.

 

Just itching for a reason to hop in: "Do you need a ride to PDX?" "Need something at the store?" "Forget something at the gym?" "wanna watch the sun set at Cannon Beach?"

 

To top it off, I dropped my new Lexus off at Car Toys yesterday to get a custom fiberglass enclosure and amp/sub put in so I have been relegated to driving my 355 every day until Saturday!!

Anyone need anything I will be happy to make a run to the store for ya!!!

 

Red 360 spider outside of cafe Umbria (NW 12th and Everett) about 11:30, and spotted a black Bentley GT convert outside of Jakes about 2:30...
