    After driving by the car on the way home from work last night and to work this morning, I really don't think it is the same car. The car on Inwood does not have the dent from backing into a pole anyway. I'll try and get a better look at the exhaust tonight.

    What color is the cavallino? Inwood car appears to have a chrome one. From Brangeta's pics of the other car, it had a black one.

    Here's the best pics I ever managed to get of it. I had my camera with me one day when I was out for a walk a couple of years ago. It's too bad I never took any good pics of it before the damage!

    Another identifying feature is that the orange and red tail lamps are switched on this car from the factory way of doing it. The orange are supposed to be on the outside.

    I never really got an opportunity to talk to the owner and I didn't MAKE an opportunity on purpose.

    A few years ago, I was out for a walk and I heard and sound him driving towards me and as he drove by I yelled "Nice Ferrari!" but unfortunately... in the condition it was in... he probably took my compliment as sarcasm...

    Do you live near George W. Bush? The previous president... not the highway. I think that's the 275 from his neighborhood. I thought it was a 250 GTO at first glance and just about freaked out...

    The car on Inwood is 100% not this car. The rear end is not dented like that and the exhaust is not at all like the one shown in your pics. The exhaust looks like the exhaust on this 308

    The passenger side tips were obscured by a trash can, but I'm certain that the drivers side was of this style.

    Also, yellow 360 Modena at the donut shop on NW Highway and Midway this morning.

    Red 360 Spider with spoiler,on 121 near DFW around 10 this morning.
    Maroon Shelby Series One not far from the 360 spot.

    Before all of that (I cannot confirm this,as I was far away),but when I was getting on to 121 from I35W north,I glanced over and I think I saw a white 365 GTS/4.

    Early, Series 1 XKE Coupe, greyish-green (definitely not BRG), getting on SW-bound 121 with me at the Carson St. on ramp....gorgeous, but not too-perfect. Exited with me at Riverside and got back on 121 NE. That was about 2:50 this afternoon.
    Dang, them Limey cars iz purty.

    Before I forget (again): Tuesday afternoon in one of the Eastern SMU parking lots - Bright (REALLY bright) Yellow Maser Gran Turismo. Got a couple of pics, but the camera won't sync to the computer at the moment.
    Quattroportes are becoming almost common, at least from what I'm seeing.

    Yellow 360 coupe in front of Stuart's Paint & Body on Plano Rd most of last week. Caught a glimpse of a black one a few days ago parked next to it.
    Gorgeous graphite colored Exige at the same shop as the 400i on Garland Rd. near the Arboretum yesterday and today.

    No, it's in the shop at British Auto Specialists for some minor repairs so I think Jeff (BAS owner) was probably checking out their work.

    Woo havent been on in a week. Been busy since im out for summer. Ok here are my spots:

    Yellow Gallardo Spider with matte-black rims at Galleria yesterday
    Black Gallardo Spider going opposite way on Forest today, guy with long hair and sunglasses
    Blue Gallardo Spider going opposite on Forest 30 mins. later, ive seen this one around, it is a daily driver for some lady. it is NOT the baby blue Gallardo I have seen at car shows, but a deeper, more Azure color.

    On Wednesday, I passed a Maserati 4200 GT. Midnight blue/black on Preston.
    The usual handful of Bentley CGTs. An uncommon Bentley was a Continental Saloon, not the Continental GT.
    Saw a 80's Rolls on Preston as well.

    Visited some friends at RAC and saw the plethora of goodies there, but they really dont count as spots, now do they =D

    Well, Im off to lunch, Il update on anything I see while im out.

    Oh,and there was also one of the new,facelifted 997 Turbos,silver,on the ramp getting onto 35W north from 30 east,around 12.

    I managed to get pics of both the Arnage and 911,but both came out crappy.
