    The GTX1 is done by the Gennaldi group in California, where they chop off the top and make it a roadster. They also have designed the scissor doors for the GT for easier parking. Only seen pics, so you had a rare sighting.

    Yellow F430 in Rockwall on 205 this morning between 11:30 and 12:00. I had seen him at McDonald's too Tuesday. I believe he has some siver 5-spoke aftermarket rims, too. Looks great.

    Yesterday, while I was waiting at LandRover Dallas for my car to be serviced, a black on black 430 Spider came up and the driver (a very gracious guy, btw) got out and went in.

    Directly, a small crowd of dealer staff and customers flocked to the rolling artwork like flies. I witnessed a member of the dealership staff come out, key in hand, and get it, start up and proceed to drive out off of the lot like he just won the lottery!! The sound of that car under power was quite intoxicating. For thirty or forty-odd minutes after the test drive, the car sat in the sun, drawing admirers as if Giselle Bundchen were outside in her bikini! :)

    Quite a sight, I must admit. Being from an area in which the opportunity to admire such art is limited, it was the highlight of the day.

    I later attended the unveiling of the new Maserati GranTurismo at Park Place. Again, my day improved when it was certainly not expected. The drive back from DFW was filled with visions of grandeur at the prospect of some day being at the wheel of such a machine.

    I was on my way to the Pumpkin Patch today in Flower Mound and a Red Lambo Countach was right behind me. (I was the big red F150).

    The road was Cross Timbers about 11:45-12:00 noon. They turned off, I had my little nieces checking it out, they're 4 and 8, they really liked it. Got to get them started while they're young.

    Anybody know who??

    I have met the driver. He has a Rover Sport Supercharged, among other vehicles. Lives in Carrolton area. And he is a very gracious man, I agree.

    Been out of the loop for a bit, but what an update.

    At angelika on mockingbird, there was a silver gallardo that had a crushed front passenger fender. Black (dark blue?)GTC at the W, Orange murci on mockingbird at matilda, rossa f430 greenville and mccomas,a conti GT on Swiss, and a beautiful cream Rolls with foreign plates in west village and on 635 last night (now has texas plates over euro plate). I'm sure there were more, but it's been a bad weekend for me (was on TRE going to fort worth and our train hit a Carolla on Friday). Anyhow, There was also a Z8 at Urban Outfitters. Has anyone notices a blue AC Cobra on McKinney near Oak Grove lately?

    another wrecked silver Gallardo, on Greenville. Passed about 11:00 last night when I was eating at Snuffers. Missing a large portion of driver's rear quarter, aft of the ducts. Possibly the same one that was Mockingbird Station. Wonder who he is and why he can't keep it in one piece?

    Red boxer passed me on the George Bush eastbound and then headed north on the Tollway around 10 this morning. I was on the way over to Don's in the 328. Good to see something like that in the wild.
