    I though he lived in Connecticut and flew his chopper to work in Beantown.

    Saw an Aston Martin drive down pass Mass General today while I was in town.

    Boston seems pretty social in terms of the cars, and where the people go..Newbury Street and the harbour front must be pretty busy on weekends.

    It might be the one from the dealership they're trying to sell, maybe he was trying to drum up some attention and interest.

    Well, you gotta do something to move a $448k car in a weird color combo! (think it's red on that burnt orange interior IIRC)

    Also the CF on the rear was yellowing already. On a new car!

    Hmm... I wonder if he could get it driven across the field at a Sox game when they bring out the first pitch guest? That would be great publicity. That or they should have negotiated a deal to make it the official pace car for the boston marathon course, cruising in front of the leaders.

    Good ideas. :)

    Newbury Street is the "rich" street of Boston, correct? I love the Carrera GT, but that would be a ugly combo.

    Yep. That's the "Rodeo Drive" or "Fifth Avenue." Of course, it was probably the Rodeo Drive of America back in 1645.

    LOL....I always been interested in Boston's social scence. Seems like it's very lively with the rich and "smart" crowd.

    Hi fellow Boston spotters,

    There have been a couple Ferraris in the garage of the building I live in over on Huntington Ave.

    360 Modena s/n 123235 Yellow/burgundy
    360 Challenge Stradale s/n 134675 Red w/Italian stripe/red plates: 19B N24 (MA)
    (both owned by the same guy)

    Also, almost every night during the summer over in the North End you can find Testarossa s/n 81192 Red/tan parked out front of the restaurant Dolce Vita. Car has plates: DOLCEV

    Enjoy!

    -Jarrett

    What is the "North End"? Excuse me for asking, but I am going to Boston alot for medical treatment, and it is my best chance for Exotic Car spotting. :) Where is the best chance to see them?

    The north end is also known as the italian district of Boston. I dont know how familiar you are with Boston, but if you look at a map it is the furthest northern area of the city. It's in the vacinity of Faneuil Hall and the Boston Harbor Hotel, (but still further north)

    If your interested in seeing exotic cars Id suggest hanging out on Newbury St. on a nice saturday afternoon, your bound to see some high priced Mercedes, BMWs, or a Ferrari or two.

    Thanks...Any big-time doctors (with Mass General, and all the other great hospitals and universities that teach medicine) have any exotics that you know of?
