    Yesterday on my way to Ashville... a red 328 on 40; on my way back... the ugliest p.o.s. I have seen in a long time - a Chrysler 300M limo. FUGLY!! What a waste of time, money, and resources. It even had the huge oversized chrome wheels and the "Bently" grill. God that thing was horrid.

    While I was in Ashville, I did see a full-size Chevy truck sitting on 44" tires. The thing looked like it was going to roll right over top of the Toyota Camry in front of it at the McDonalds drive-thru.

    It was a nice day, so I decided to head out on the bike and go check out some cars. I was expecting to see the two Porsches as I had seen them on the way home earlier in the day, but what I saw at Mercedes in Cary was the real icing on the cake. Top to bottom are as follows:

    Porsche 993 and 996 cup cars
    Mercedes McLaren SLR
    Maybach 57
    Merdeces CL65

    I don't have pictures, but also saw a silver 246 Dino and a 1990 ZR-1 with under four thousand miles on it. I went to Mercedes hoping to see a CLS 55 with no luck, though pretty much every other AMG model was on the lot.

    I saw a few of them but didn't take any close looks. As to who would buy one, I would assume someone who needs a minivan but wants a Mercedes.

    Hooray, I spotted an "exotic"! And in a very unlikely place, too. Yellow Lotus Elise going north on 701 between Elizabethtown and Clarkton. I'm pretty sure it had SC plates. Maybe going the backway to Raleigh?
    I have to say it looked underwhelming on the road.

    I spotted a black 348 with a carbon fiber roof today -- it was headed down I-40 in Greensboro. The dude driving that car looked so cool.

    Blue Viper GTS at D&E Dodge in Wilmington today, as well as a red Viper at a dealer across the street and then a silver 360 Spider in the Baskin Robbin's parking lot with FCI plates. Those 360s sure look boring in real life...

    Saw another red 550 on Chatam St. in downtown Cary yesterday sometime in the afternoon, probably the same one. Also saw a beautiful XKE convertible at North Hills last night.
