    Anyone know who owns that crimson (or dark dark red?) Saleen S7? I saw it on Tuesday driving on Hobart road just past where the paragliders land. Stunning car, I couldn't see the driver very well through the dark tinted windows but the car itself sure caught my eye in a hurry. I was in the silver E55 going the oposite way, I live right out here on Tiger Mountain. First time I've seen it, although I have seen an F40, a blue 360 modena, a red one, and a few 308/328's out here just in the last few weeks. I saw an Enzo over on east lake sammamish a month or two ago.

    :)

    Kevin,

    I saw the same Saleen last Sunday just outside of Wenatchee,
    at the Monitor pedestrian overpass, pulling out of Tom, Dick
    & Harry's. Pretty Cool looking Ride!

    They were part of some Car show that was held somewhere
    in the Wenatchee vicinity. A 55 Chev 2D HT, a few Street Rods/
    Muscle Cars. They were dispersing, some East, some West.

    It must reside in the P-Sound area.

    Cool, glad it wasn't just a figment of my imagination :)

    Thanks for the response Chuck, and were you there to see the car show or on other business? You must have talked to someone to have known why they were there?

    Joe,

    I think I've actually met you before. Last summer when we had the meet ups near KK in the Fred Meyers parkinglot, you were down there sometimes right? If you're the same guy, you brought your 308 once or twice and that one night you were talking about cruising with your busa club or something to that tune. My buddy had the black/red R6 and I had the S10 with the 350 swap. Don't know if you remember or are same guy...

    Kevin,

    We were on our way back from Bellevue after test Driving a
    couple of Cayenne's at B-P. Just happen to be passing by,
    seen a few Muscle Cars, scanned the lined up and Wham!
    Saleen! I don't know where the Car Show was, but many
    of them take place throughout the area this time of year.

    I think the F40 you've seen near Tiger Mountain is probably me. I don't live too far from there, and pass the parasailing landing site at least three days a week either taking my daughter to school or running to Issq on errands.

    Joe,
    Honestly I'm not sure if the meets are still going on. I would think so because that group is pretty tight knit but I really have not been by there since last summer. I plan on checking it out again soon though, I've been to some of the east valley meet ups in over the last few months.


    Steve,
    I figured it was probably you that I was seeing.. I don't think there are any other F40's out this way.. atleast not that I've seen. Georgous car you have, and great area we have around here to drive it on. How's the car treating you? I'd assume you got the feel for it's brutal nature by now? I remember you talking about it when you first received the car.

    Oh and I sent you a PM.
