Starting in 2013 we will have Alfa Romeo back in the USA. The Alfa CUV with a alloy 1750 300hp turbo will be available in mid 2013 in N.A. at the FIAT dealers. The 4C will also debute in N.A. at the 2014 Detroit Auto show. More Alfa's coming to N.A. including a new 4 door Giulia and new Mito. They will have a Chicago connection.

I sat in the table next to him at mcdonalds a few weeks ago, his maybach is massive, stuck out a couple ft past the parking spot.
Really? Cool! I bet it did! Probably a 62? I didn't know if he took his cars out still, I saw this old photo of him filling up his SLR and Maybach that's probably 4 years old. Maybe I'll see him one day. http://www.exoticspotter.com/car-pictures/7741/mercedes_slr?sk=kelly

Holy sh*t the past 2 days have been amazing for spotting! Friday: Deer Park: A red Tesla Sport! Barrington: Blue 360 Spider & a silver Viper Wynstone Country Club: a Porsche Panamera Turbo, Saleen Mustang, Fisker Karma & an Aston V8 Vantage parked next to each other! Saturday: I wen't downtown w/ a few friends and it was a gold mine, Trump Tower: BMW 1M, Gallardo Bentley CGT Speed & a Quattroporte parked next to eachother, and a goldish California Turning onto LSD a Shelby/Eleanor Hybrid, looked pretty cool Rush Street: Saw Snakecharmers Aventador My first Diablo!!! The yellow one that's been spotted a few times, SL65 in front of Mortons, Then we decided to sit in the triangle for a bit and we saw, Silver DB9, blue Viper w/ white stripes, white Ghost, orange LP560-4, my first ACR Viper! Then we walked around some more and saw a grey Quattroporte, Black CL63 @ the Peninsula there was an Alpina Z8, S65 & a GranCabrio, moving on... Red Mondial red F430 Spider, grey Gallardo following a pretty sick C63, then we went back to sit in the triangle and saw this trio pull up... Maserati MC Stradale, Plymouth Prowler & a vintage Mercedes 250 SE, the Stradale was sick! then later a black Murcielago Spider! Black R8 Spyder, older RR with an F430 Spider, 2 tone Ghost and probably my favorite spot of the day, a baby blue 997 Speedster!!! Then we walked to dinner and saw a Maserati GranTurismo & my first SLS Convertible! Pretty succesful day!
So lucky. I wish I went, nice video of the Stradale. I'm hoping people will still bring something out for Easter Sunday. My friend saw a Maserati CambioCorsa in Skokie.
Is that one of the sharpie cars? Spotted a PRISTINE looking 1950's-1960's (don't know the exact year) Mercedes 300 SL Convertible at Lincoln Ave and I think Southport. I would have tried to snap a pic but my mouth was to the floor
Pictures? Three very classy cars: Apr 4 - dark green V8 Apr 5 - gorgeous silver 550 Maranello with dark red interior, 6 speed, and a new Gran Cabrio with temp plates at the Peninsula. Valets were messing with me locking & unlocking the doors and asking what I did Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
Today saw a dark blue 458 going north on the Skokie hwy and a black California and Grey with red writing Porsche GT3 RS going south on the skokie hwy between
^ I hope the 4c gets a complete makeover before it gets here... really, really not a fan of it's design. give me something that will stomp a miata, front engine/rwd and looks to match. in addition to that I really, really want one of these I spotted today in bucktown...

I had heard around 50 thousand Euro, but some things on the car have changed since then. By the time the 4C gets here the Euro should be imploding so it may be less than $50,000 dollars in mid 2014 Tom Tanner/Ferrari Expo 2013-Chicago March 2013
Of course, here's a link, you have to go to the post from April 8th http://www.chasingexotics.com/forum/showthread.php?917-Chicago-Car-Spotting
Nice spots. Saw that ACR-I think-last fall, saw the Diablo, yet to see the Aventador, and that Plymouth/Chrysler I saw last fall. Today in Skokie: Mean R8 accelerating so loud from Harms Woods. OMG! My friends cheered him on too, cause I could hear it half a mile down the road when I was past, too! I hope I can see it again!
Black Bentley with a low single digit Illinois plate. N. Michigan Ave & Huron, Chicago, Black? (very dark color), Dodge Viper, on a country road's soft shoulder, being winched onto a flatbed. Out in the boonies just east of Rock Cut State Park (NE of Rockford). It couldn't have been fun for the driver, who I can only assume was out for a spirited drive, only to break down.
