2012 NY-Tri-State Spotters Thread

Also a navy blue 360 spider today at about 1030 on rt 58 in Riverhead

 

6 or 7 Californias in the last week on 2 separate trips to eastern L.I.
Black Aston rapide on shelter is. this wknd.

 

Saturday in Port Jefferson:

Red Ferrari 3x8 GTS

Yellow Lamborghini Gallardo Superleggera

And this:

Orange Lamborghini Aventador with glass/reflective covering. It was parked across two spots and as you can see, it was in the process of getting a ticket. It drew a huge crowd and no one really knew what it was. When the owner came back (who has been profiled somewhat unfavorably in a jalopnik article a little while back) he revved the engine when no one was around a few times and left. I'm in no place to judge but I would never have done this to my car, to each his own I guess.

The Aventadore belongs to Brian Sallamone.

 

Pre-chrome wrap in May or June. Same prob with parking.

I spoke to the owner about the car. He wrapped it when he did the Gumball 3000. He said he's going to leave it on for now, he may peel it off after he gets sick of it, or it ruins. I personally like the car without it. I saw his car at a car show when he first got it, before wrapping it, and it looked stunning!

I saw that car too. It was at Old Westbury Gardens.. It looked great..

 

Yes Mike, that's where it was! That's the show here I decided 100% that I wanted a 360 instead of a GTR. Before the show, I was about 95% sure.

 

I was there with mine. One of the best shows around. Perfect setting, great food and amazing cars. Can't wait for next year.

 

LOL...I was hanging out in Port Jeff a few months ago and was parked in the same parking spot. The 2nd pic is from one of the Glen Cove car shows, when Salamone pulled in right after me and parked next to me. I think he's stalking me!

Just saw my first Ferrari F40 in the wild. Mill plain Road in Danbury CT, about 3 miles down the road from where I saw Jim's p4/5 at a gas station on Lake Avenue in 2008.

Today I was driving down Mill Plain Road towards NY and the F40 was coming towards me. There were two people in the car. I went to Panda house to get food and on my way back i saw it again heading back towards NY. I'm guessing it had NY plates, but i couldn't tell.

For me the F40 was more exciting because at the time in 2008 I did not know the historic nature of what I was seeing when i saw the Glickenhaus p4/5.

 

Ridgewood, NJ had its car show last night, and because it's not known outside of Bergen County, I'll just share the supercars/rare sightings that were there:

- Red 355 Spider
- Red Mondial
- Silver 360 Spider
- Silver Murcielago
- Silver R8 V10
- Black SLS
- Silver Fisker Karma
- DeTomaso (looked similar to a Countach)
- Callaway C12
- RUF RT12
- '54 Corvette

 

Audi R8 in Black on Route 1 in Edison, NJ this afternoon

 

Black F12 or FF (pretty sure it was F12) on Rt 78 East this morning around 7:00 am.

 

My 1986 Mondial Cabriolet won 1st place Contemporary Cars, over the 2nd place Callaway C12.

 

Gorgeous black 512TR going south on Mineola Blvd. towards Franklin Ave in Mineola/Garden City

 

Oh that was you? I especially like the NJ Devils license plate cover around it! Great car.

 

Silver F430 and yellow Gallardo (first generation) in Bergen County today.

 

Black California on Hutch south @ Mamaroneck Ave, 4pm, I was in my black 430, we were side by side for a split second (it looked like he could care less), whatever... still nice

 

Thanks - lets hope there are some devils games to see the season.

Not really a street spotting, but visited monticello motor club today, too many hot cars to name, but included 2 Ariel Atoms, Black Ferrari FF, and the first Aston Martin Rapide I've seen on the street (Rapide in parking lot not on track).

 

There was a Rapide in Ridgewood last Friday, the night of the car show!

Driving around Far Hills & Bernardsville in New Jersey and saw these on the beautiful back roads:

Saw a red 308 GTS convertible on bloomfield ave in Caldwell today. I was in my 599 but we were going the opposite direction.

 

Yellow 430 Spyder this past Saturday, heading west on 495, by Queens Blvd around 4:00. Looked great in the sun.
