    This afternoon on W. Grey I saw a 599 GTO. Dark red, with a matte black roof, and black emblems. The thing was beautiful and sounded phenomenal.

    Wow, thats wild. I was logging in to post the same thing.

    I saw the same car, most likely, on Walden Road yesterday, as I was leaving a friend's lake house, headed back to San Angelo.

    An orange Chrysler Superbird cruising down T.C. Jester last weekend, looked brand new and FLAWLESS!

    I ran with him a few blocks in my yellow Ferrari, he even had the vintage sunglasses correct!!

    I have seen him a couple of times near Longmire/105. It's the only other F430 Red spider I know is in the Conroe area, but don't know who it is.

    Last week saw a Fisker Karma by my house, off of Huffmeister and Skinner. It was parked at a Insurance Company I believe.

    Very very bizarre siting. Hopefully I can catch a picture if I see it again.

    Balloon white LP640 convertible with aftermarket exhaust and wheels. LOUD as hell and gorgeous. It was being followed by a dark silver phantom on 24's(?).

    Both at West Ave.

    I lived in one of the west ave penthouses In early 2010 if you can even call
    Them that.top floor corner unit next to the infinity pool, it was just under $4k a month, are there more expensive units? If so fine, otherwise nobody should have a car like that paying 2-3k/month rent

    People have different priorities. If you live by yourself and are hardly ever home why would you need to spend more? It's in the best area of town with the best amenities... And real estate in Houston is so flat you're never going to build equity in a place unless you plan on staying there 2-5+ years. Just a different lifestyle.

    Saw a red 430 spider with a challenge grill going south on 45. He made a lane change and actually used his blinker.
    It's a nice day so I would expect at least one exotic on the road.

    White Fisker Karma on Wirt Rd. tonight. First time I've seen one in person. A very large nose and some very bright lights. :) Pretty car, though.

    In a slightly related topic, my search found that Sewell has opened Houston's Fisker dealership on the northside. Was news to me!

    They opened in the old Saturn location. Sewell had an unveiling of the new JX at CRU in The Woodlands and we saw the Fisker for the 1st time. Nice lines on the car and it's a 400 hp hybrid.

    Thanks for the info. I haven't driven up there in a while and was wondering where they had opened that dealership at. Maybe one will show up to Cars and Coffee! :)

    Not here, but red F430 at Lost Pines Resort this weekend. Saw it on the way home to. It was a quick look, but it looked like a couple that attended my cousins wedding. Texas License plate read NOLA I believe. It was the black and white plate.

    A member here, maybe?
