    I've asked two different people at FoA (one salesperson and another in the service department) about there being an Enzo here in Atlanta and they both said that there is only one, and it is permanently parked in the basement. I'm still kicking myself for not asking about F40's though.

    Unlikely! But I suppose anything is possible. Unless you hear it from Mr. EW himself, I'd assume that's a rumor.

    If it was sold, it had to have been within the past month because it was parked out front when FoA had their Garage Sale thing last month on the 15-16. Maybe Will will come on here and let us know.

    My only sighting for today was a Vantage on Piedmont right before Roswell Rd. I also saw a Gallardo Spyder at Aria on E. Paces but I refuse to pull into their parking lot because it's horrible.

    A few from today...

    -black/black R8 at Lenox
    -Alpina B7 also at Lenox
    -orange LP640 Roadster at Phipps on temp plates
    -a pair of DB9's at Terminus...there was another one parked on the street by Chops but I figured two would be enough for the night. This car along with the V8 Vantage are a few sightings away from being retired forever.

    Yeah she was hot, but with the MSRP of the GT-R, I wouldn't say she had to be married to a "rich guy".

    Today was a good day for cars in Buckhead...

    -dark red, almost purplish 612 with Challenge wheels on Peachtree...I'm not the biggest fan of the 612 but this one looks incredible! Anybody know what color it is?
    -R8 in the front lot at Lenox
    -57 in the car wash at Lenox
    -550 at Bluepointe
    -Ford GT on dealer plates at Aja
    -Phantom on plate "DKG 94" at Chops
    -430 Spyder on Florida plates at Fellini's Pizza on Roswell Rd

    It didn't look red enough to me to be rosso rubino, but of course I could be wrong.

    My spots from last night:
    - black Aston-Martin V8 Vantage at Fogo de Chao.
    - silver Aston-Martin V8 Vantage on Highland Avenue between Ponce de Leon and Virginia Avenue in Virginia-Highland.
    - red Ferrari 550 Maranello on dealer plates at BluePointe.
    - dark reddish/purplish Ferrari 612 Scaglietti at Lenox Mall valet.
    - red Ford GT on dealer plates at Aja.
    - blue and gray Maybach 57 on Florida plates driving at Lenox Mall.

    Also caught the all-new Mercedes E550 on Florida manufacturer plates at Terminus. Here's a shot from the rear. Not particularly exciting, but interesting to see out on the road.

    That is our car. Our rental customer has been out and about in it. The color is Bordeaux Pontiveccio. It is the Neiman Marcus Maserati color. The interior is also the Maserati Cuoio. It is the only one painted that color in the country.

    today..

    -the first picture is ridiculous...this was when I got in my car to go to lunch at around 5pm, it did eventually cool off a bit but only went down to 97
    -NSX at Cumberland with some questionable rims
    -Phantom on dealer plates at the corner of W Paces Ferry and 41
    -57 at Chops, check out the wheels on the BMW behind it
    -430 on dealer plates at St. Regis
    -430 on Montana plates at Kyma, both 430's were around midnight...nice to see these cars out at all hours

    I officially retired the V8 Vantage from my pictures today, mostly because I was pissed when I saw one parked in a spot where a Ford GT was supposed to be

    Mine's been reading north of 100 all day - it usually reads a bit high but to have consistent 100+ readings, I wouldn't be surprised if it was at least close to accurate!

    From last night and today:

    Friday June 19:
    - black Aston-Martin V8 Vantage at Phipps Plaza valet.
    - red Dodge Viper SRT-10 on vanity plate IMFAST2 at Fogo de Chao.
    - dark red Ferrari 612 Scaglietti at Lenox Mall, then again on Highland Avenue in Virginia-Highland.
    - red Ferrari F430 at Capital Grille on East Paces Ferry.
    - red Ford GT on dealer plates at Phipps Plaza.
    - silver Lotus Esprit V8 25th Anniversary on Peachtree approaching Piedmont. This car is my 2,000th sighting!

    Saturday June 20:
    - white Aston-Martin DB9 Volante parked (illegally) in general parking at Phipps Plaza.
    - red Dodge Viper SRT-10 on local vanity plate KZIMFLY on Briarcliff near North Decatur just blocks from Emory.
    - red Ferrari F430 Spider on Colorado plates at Phipps Plaza. Once again, here's an exotic car that I've spotted on multiple occasions in Denver. Once again, I was absolutely stunned to see it here. I'm almost certain that I actually drove this car while I was working for Ferrari of Denver. Here's a shot from the rear.
    - white Lamborghini Gallardo Spyder on Tennessee plates at the Intercontinental. Here's another angle.
    - black Rolls-Royce Phantom on temporary plates on Peachtree Parkway.
    - black Rolls-Royce Phantom on vanity plate DKG 94 at Phipps Plaza. This car was from Miller County, whose seat is tiny Colquitt, Georgia, about four hours from Atlanta and nowhere near any metro area. Your guess on this one is as good as mine.

    The highlight of the day, though, was going on a long ride through Buckhead's windy roads in F-chatter spirot's black Ferrari 328 GTS. Thanks so much Tom - I love being around these cars and especially talking to people who know them!

    - gray Aston-Martin V8 Vantage at Lenox Mall valet.
    - dark gray Aston-Martin Vanquish at the Mansion valet. The front plate is a reference to the James Bond movie Die Another Day; James Bond's Vanquish bore that plate number in the movie.

    - gray Audi R8 at BluePointe.
    - white Bentley Arnage at Fado.
    - black Bentley Continental GT Speed on South Carolina plates at St. Regis.

    Last Saturday I observed seven Ferrari's and two Lamborghini's. This Saturday I observed '6' Ferrari's and '5' Lamborghini's. Throw in two Audi R8's and what a car show. Missed two shots - a white Gallardo coupe and and a dark gray Audi R8.
    The Ferrari 308 GTS was a stunning example in perfect condition, a early QV car with the large front spoiler.The Scuderia had Alabama tags.The Dark green Maranello had Florida tags. I hope you enjoy the pics, West

    Nice shots West! You always manage to get several cars I miss - though I too missed the white Gallardo!

    Four final shots from tonight. What a night in Atlanta!
    - awful photo of a black Aston-Martin V8 Vantage at the St. Regis.
    - silver Bentley Arnage on Louisiana plates on Freedom Parkway after leaving a restaurant in Virginia-Highland.
    - silver Lamborghini Gallardo at the St. Regis.
    - black Rolls-Royce Phantom on North Carolina 'Friends of the Smokies' plates at the W in Midtown.

    My apologis for this not being an exotic, but I felt it was too good not to share.
    Spotted at lunch today along Freedom Parkway near The Carter Center.
    Would love to know the story behind this one.

    Saw a woman driving a orange LP560 on Peachtree pkwy in Cumming getting on to 400 north bound. Absolutely stunning, it was just amazing.
