    Wow, Lars thanks for the response. Does not surprise me that Munich would be so awesome but these facts just blow my mind. Leave it to the Europeans to do it right. Can't wait to be there in July.....Estoril not Munich....but it's also nice ;-)

    Ciao,

    Another spot in Munich's Maximilianstrasse yesterday evening:

    A red/black F430 Spider (yes, a Spider!) on M-plates.

    I chased it with my own car for a while, but finally lost it in traffic.

    A great sight, especially as it was driven with the top down!

    Ciao,
    Lars

    I think a few years back Rosenheim (not far from Munich) had the highest Ferrari density in Germany. Apparently due to Austrians also registering their weekend F-cars there as well due to cheaper tax or insurance.

    My 'local' dealer has got an F430 and an F430 Spider alongside each other in their showroom. F-40 in the workshop too.

    Hi Cinque,

    Today, I saw the F430 Spider F1 in the Maximilianstrasse again and I was able to take some pics.

    However, I'm not able to make them small enough to fit FerrariChat. I'll ask a friend of mine to resize one and post it here.

    All in all, seven Ferraris spotted in Munich-city today:

    360 Spider F1, silver/black, STA-plates, Maximilianstrasse
    360 Spider F1, silver/black, M-plates, Leopoldstrasse
    360 Spider F1, red/black, M-plates, Ludwigstrasse
    360 Spider F1, titanium grey/bordeaux, M-plates, Leopoldstrasse
    550 Maranello, silver/black, M-plates, at Hotel Bayerischer Hof
    575 M Maranello F1, silver/tan, MB-plates, Maximilianstrasse
    F430 Spider F1, red/black, M-plates, Maximilianstrasse

    Really many silver Ferraris today! And also spotted:

    Bentley Continental GT, Cypress green/saddle, M-plates, Maximilianstrasse
    Lamborghini Gallardo, silver, Italian plates, Maximilianstrasse

    Not bad for three and a half hours of spotting :)

    Ciao,
    Lars

    Yes, I also heard that Rosenheim should be good. I visited the local dealer a couple of times, but have never spotted in the city itself. Reportedly also Ingolstadt north of Munich should have a high Ferrari density. But same thing here: never spotted in town, just visited the dealer...

    Ciao,
    Lars

    Ingolstadt is my 'local'. They have some smart looking thoroughbreds in the showroom area......... and the cars there aren't bad, too. :D

    Heh, I noticed both kinds of thoroughbreds there too!

    BTW, the F430 Spider seen yesterday was delivered by Mori Schoeberl of Ingolstadt, according to the plate. So maybe the same one as seen by you?

    Spotted today in Munich-city:

    Mondial t Cabriolet, red/black, BAD-plates, Schwabing district
    360 Spider F1, red/black, M-plates, Maximilianstrasse
    550 Barchetta, red/black, M-plates, chased for a while with my own car, nice sound!

    Ciao,
    Lars

    A friend of mine supplied me with a programme to resize pics, so now I'm able to show "proof" of my spot myself :)

    Yesterday evening, around 7.30pm, I was cruising on the E411 highway in the direction of Brussels, when in the neighbourhood of Waver a black Maranello speeded in the opposite direction to Luxemburg... :) Just saw it for about a second...
