    Some random old photos to share. I got caught up reading about the Vector M12 and its legacy, and I remembered that I spotted one some years ago. I didn't realize that what I saw was one of 14 cars they ever sold. These were taken at a small dealership that dealt mainly with Porsches and the occasional Viper, off of Alpharetta Highway outside of Atlanta. I think the dealership is long gone, but it's been replaced by a dealer called "Foreign Car Connection."

    I took these in high school, I want to say it was 2005 or 2006. Taken through the glass. Is this the car that burned in Texas?

    That's funny... I was driving an E28 M5 2 or 3 cars behind that car for several miles on Bee Caves today.

    I was also driving a Rosso Corsa 430 Scuderia today... I actually liked the experience better than the 458. The exhaust note of the Scud is amazing in race mode!

    Is that FXX outside the W hotel?

    Thursday night I spotted a red 458 on fourth st downtown, Friday night I passed a red 458 with spoiler on 2222 (I've seen this specific car downtown before), and then this morning I spotted a white 458 at Oyster Landing. I guess these Italias aren't as rare as I thought.
