    Just back from lunch. I was headed to a local eatery when I spot a yellow Gallardo in the oncoming traffic. In my mind I say "Gallardo," then turn my focus back to my driving. Half a second later I think.. GALLARDO!!! and turn my head to watch it glide by, astonished at my initial ambivalence.

    When a very rare automobile doesn't immediately raise my attention, I think I'm spending way too much time here dulling my senses. ;)

    Not jaded here, despite FChat: my 328 still gets me excited every time I walk out to the garage.

    In real life, even the Southern California version of it, I don't see many Ferraris or Lambos unless it's at some kind of car guy gathering or over at Bobileff's shop.

    Well it's not like it was a Ferrari or somethin'. ;)

    Same exact thing happened to me today with the same exact car. Stopped at a light and I see a yellow Gallardo with yellow rims drive by. Took a second to realize Lambo, and then wished it was an F430 instead. Yet when I see an F430 I consider running after it.

    Try living in Boca Raton Florida, you'll see how jaded you get. As an example, yesterday (Sunday) I saw three Ferrari spiders (one 430 and two 360), Half dozen Bentley continentals, dozens of Porsches (I am not kidding), and a Murci convertible. Thats was only until 1pm (When I arrived home and didn't reallyu ride around for the rest of the day.
