    Well,folks,as far as Ferrari sightings go out here. Let me put it this way. PISS POOR!!!!!! We have more Ferrari sightings in mid Winter Chicago than Phoenix has here....and it's Sunny and in the '70's!

    First day here. We saw a beautiful Red 360 Stradale at 6:30PM at Scottsdale Rd. and Greenway. That was it so far! And we have been out running around all day,every day. Mostly through Scottsdale.

    If you are a Porschephile,this is heaven. Lots and Lots of Porsches. Too many,really. BO-ring!!! But,we have seen alot of the older,late '70's and '80's cabriolets. Including an all Black 930 Slantnose. And an old Orange 914.

    Lots of the other Sportscars. Mostly of the Asian variety. Lexus,Nissan,Etc. We saw an old Jaguar 120 or 140. Not sure. Vipers. LOTS of new C6 Corvettes. Lots of Motorcycles. Big Buck Yuppie Choppers,mostly.

    I guess that we will have to hit some of the Exotic Car dealerships to see any Ferrari's.

    And,in a few weeks. Barrett-Jackson,and a few other Auctions are here. So I suppose tht there will be quite a few Old cars,Muscle cars and Classics around....But will there be any Ferrari's....?

    O.K. Today, Phoenix/Scottsdale somewhat redeemed themselves in the Ferrari Dept.

    Right around 11:30AM. We got on Highway SR51 Northbound from Northern Av. and immediately saw a Red/tan 348TS. Looked like Brand New. Had the Targa Top off. Then, not more than a few miles later, in the Southbound lanes, saw a Flatbed Tow Truck with a '66 or '67 Red 275GTB on the back. It was a long nose.

    The rest of the day, the usual Porsches every 6 or 7 cars that passed. Lots of new 'Vettes. Thats about it so far.....

    I was in Tucson from Dec 25th until today (the 1st) and saw NOTHING. One Porsche Boxster. That's it......

    Hope Phoenix was nice, as Tucson was around 75-80 every day and SUNNY....

    Yes, the Weather was nice. But, no Ferrari's out and about. Millions of Porsches...yawn....Quite a few new Vettes,including new Z06's. Lots of old cars. But,no Ferrari's! We saw 3 all week. VERY disapponting.....

    That's 3 more than what I saw here in the last few weeks. And yes, gazillions of those flattened VW bugs around here too.
