    Took my 400i out for a 50 mile loop through New Canaan and up into Westchester County this morning and saw what was probably a lime green Lamborghini Countach (no spoiler) or possibly a Murcielago (sorry, not too up to speed on Lambos) twice: First time was headed south on Rt 124 in New Canaan as I was headed north and the second time was about 45 minutes later headed north on Rt 123 in Vista, NY as I was headed south.

    I'm not positive but I'm guessing it was the same car both times! :D

    Last night on 9th ave NYC, around 5PM- a sweet sounding 360CS. I was walking and at first heard what I thought was a sport bike in the distance and was wondering who would be riding a motorcycle on such a cold night, then I saw the source of the flat crank sound- a 360 CS. He should have been in a lower gear for more sound to bounce off the buildings to make my walk to the Port Authority bus terminal building more entertaining :)

    I haven't seen anything worth posting lately until today. I hit the rare Jaguar double whammy in a span of about 25 minutes. The first picture is of an XKR-S I saw in the Brooklyn Battery Tunnel. The guy revved his engine a couple of times and it sounded really mean. He got off in red hook and disappeared into the side streets. The second is a Jaguar XF-R I saw in a parking garage.

    I also saw a black Lexus IS F approaching the midtown tunnel last night but didn't manage to grab a picture

    To learn how to drive in a well behaved manner on the public roads? I was thinking about it to show my support. If you go I will also.

    Not sure if it counts spotting cars at the dealer, but there were 4 R8s at the Audi dealer on Rt 9A / 55th. The 4 were a GT, a V10 coupe, and two V10 Spiders. Maybe they're overstocked?

    Out for a drive in the 400i this morning (imagine, nice Ferrari driving weather in February!!) and saw a black Aston Martin DB6 parked in Scott's Corner in Westchester and a white Jaguar XK140 FHC out in front of Zumbach's coffee in New Canaan.

    Also, the second week in a row with a New Canaan radar trap on Rt 124 not too far south of the NYS line.

    Around 3:45 PM today, driving down Route 1 in Greenwich, CT:

    -- A black R8 V10 Spyder at Audi

    -- A grey 991 at Porsche (an S, I think.)

    -- An orange MP4-12C next to a Fisker on Miller's trillion dollar lot.

    -- A white 599 GTO with black roof in Miller's Ferrari showroom.

    -- A red 599 in the same location (nice to have the option of contrasting the two.)

    -- A gorgeous colored (sort of light burnt orange) Diablo with pipes that just about matched the paint, on 95 North, by Exit 4.

    Shell shocked . . .
