Seattle Spotter Thread #7

That would be me getting new Michelin Pilot Sport Tires on the 360. Between TimF40 and me the original Pirellis went 11,060 miles. Lets hope the Michelin's do better.
BTW I can highly recommend Joe the owner of the Tire Factory in Redmond. They matched the Tire rack price and handled the 360 with kid gloves. They let me wash the rims inside and out during mount and dismount and put the car on 2X6 boards to raise it up so the two poster lift arms would fit under. It is a true sign of professionalism when a shop lets the owner hang out with them while they work on your car. The good guys know they are good and don't care what you see, and those not so... well you get the idea.

Not an exotic but really got my attention, A silver toyota FJ Cruiser convertible that looked like a factory option in U District. Did a quick google search but not much came up. It looked really good

 

Yeah that is pretty odd. If you do spot it again, snap a pic (if you can).

Saw a brand new red 430 that still had Ferrari of Seattle paper plates on it down in Burien, WA yesterday of all places. Also saw an Audi S5 down on 1st st in Seattle on Saturday. Not an exotic, but man, it looks sexy.

 

A new black 430 spyder with what looked like a red interior on FoS paper plates.

 

Lot of good money in Burien...have a few Lambos stuffed in owners Garages there..

 

Black Maser QP at Metropolitan Grill at 5:30pm today.

 

I grew up in Burien in the 90's, I remember there used to be a champagne-colored Diablo that would drive around. I think it was owned by a Dentist in Normandy Park, I would sometimes see him or his sons driving it.

 

There are some NICE Ferraris in the "Burien" area (Normandy Park, Seahurst, Three Tree Point, etc..) too.

 

I lived in Three Tree Point and now Seahurst, i really like the area.

 

For you all that where wanting to see what that FJ looked like here you go...

Yeah that was it, just in silver. I never got a chance to snap a photo of it as I was standing at a corner on 45th ave in the U district at night when it went by me. Like I said it looked factory. The fit/finish of the soft top looked more solid then say a Jeep.

 

Ummm I miss something? What's the big deal?

 

Red 355 GTB (I think, maybe GTS) with a woman driver in Gig Harbor Saturday. Anyone on fChat?

 

I saw Mike on A St. SE in Auburn on Friday night. Beautiful Maser!

Also saw a black Flying Spur on Denny Way near the KeyArena on Wednesday, and a copper Flying Spur in the SuperMall parking lot yesterday.

 

Spotted a black 360 spyder on I405 sb in line to get on 167 sb around 1:15 pm yesterday.

 

I saw Sam in his 328 today at 11:40 am on the roundabout in Lacey... going from Pacific to Golf Club Rd.

I was on my way to lunch... Sam, next time you're in that area, you should check out Paco's Tacos. EXCELLENT taco shop.

Titanium F430 on 15th NW in Auburn yesterday afternoon- around 5p, as well as a silver DB9 near Qwest Field around lunch time, and I think the same DB9 parked on 2nd Ave in Seattle around 930p last night... Oregon plates. Anyone?

 

Audi R8 black in color on the West Valley Highway heading south on Monday (I think).

 

Silver 550 on the streets of Tacoma

 

it's probably that same guy that owns the 275 gts

 

An AWESOME Vantage V8 (Navy Blue) parked on the west side of the KeyArena tonight.

 

Beautiful black 330 driving around my neighborhood in Puyallup. If your a member, I was the guy walking the german shepard.

 

Late Friday afternoon, black SLR in Magnolia. 7pm, red 430 spider in front of Capitol Grill. 8pm another red 430 spider in west Seattle...

 

A Red Diablo just drove by my apartment going pretty fast. It sounded amazing. haha. It was going southbound in South Everett.
