    Hi All,

    Last weekend I had to take a drive to Upstate NY from NJ and suddenly spotted a nice red Testarossa on I87. As much as enjoyed it looks (it passed me and quickly disappeared, working its way through traffic), I realized one simple thing - not only Testarossa and other Ferraris look as beautiful as they do in general, but they really stand out in terms of looks if you watch them going along with the traffic flow, amongst other, let's say, more mundane cars. Sleek and low, they always make a strong statement on the road, especially when compared with other cars. It's kind obviouus, and yet it struck me as an observation.

    Hence my question: with as many great pics that we can see on this Forum (Showroom threads and others with pics), did we ever have a thread specially dedicated to Ferraris in traffic, on the road amongst other cars? IMHO, it would be a nice one to have.

    Anton.

    Gentlemen (and ladies if any),

    Wonderful pictures, thanks so much for responding, makes me proud of having spawned what turned out to be such a spectacular thread! Too bad I didn't have my digital camera with me when that Testarossa passed me on I87 last Sat. Please keep those great pix coming, many thanks to all who have contributed and to all those who will.

    Anton.

    P.S. Which reminds me that the only way to get a similar shot of my Esprit in traffic is to have someone drive behind and take a shot - not a frequent event.
