    So I was playing around on Google Earth and of course I go and find my house. Would you believe that I can see my red 308 in the driveway! I have the only red car in the area and this is not a maybe it is for sure my car in my driveway. Way cool :)

    Rob, way cool bro. An orbital spotting. That should be on the Toronto's spotter thread. It would be the first ;)

    I've never seen that before so I downloaded it. It's REALLY cool. the one thing is, I did an addition to my house in August, and it's got my house on there "pre-addition"!!!! My cars are there (I can see my Ferrari parked in front), but it's definitely not a current picture. really cool none the less...

    BTW, if you zoom in futher, you can see the fighterjet inside the Fiorano track and a good number of the red trucks of the F1 team at the entrance of the track as well as the tourist busses in front of the Galleria Ferrari.

    Gents,

    The red blob is my 355 Spider in my circle driveway. Google Earth is fun, but the pictures aren't current. Mine is more than 8 months old, as a neighbor's pool isn't shown and has been finished for 5 months.

    The google earth photos taken here on Long Island are from April 2001. I know this because I build swimming pools for a living and checked out some of my customers houses and was able to narrow it down based on the stages of construction of a few different jobs...

    That's what I thought, maybe around 2 years old or so.

    Cool!! I would guess that this picture is about 2-3 years old..

    My parents bought the house then and the previous owners never had a boat..

    I know it isnt new because we have since moved the lift to the front of the dock..

    Before and after ..
