    This morning on I-12 West near Hammond I was passed by a Mercedes S55 AMG with Saints plate # 2 on the back. Who Dat?! I assume Tom Benson has # 1 so this was probably another member of the family/ownership. Dat who! :D

    As I was headed east this evening I saw a gorgeous black Bentley Arnage on the back of a car carrier in Baton Rouge on I-12 West. Later, a red first gen Viper coupe near Mandeville.

    I've actually seen a black S63 with the #2 Saints plate.

    I assume a Benson.

    I guess everyone was out enjoying the weather. I saw a red Lamborghini Gallardo on West Esplanade in Metairie around noon. Then around 5:30 a red Viper in Mandeville on Causeway Approach.

    Today on the way back from Perdido Key we spottedwhat looked like a huge Corvette club cruising Eastward on I-12 heading towards Mobile. Some really nice cars. One with an emerald green paint with brighter green stripes really stood out. Another with a Rob Ferretti-style GT1 wing on the back looked kinda cool too.

    Then I spotted a little Lotus Elan cruising I-12 E right around Denham Springs. I have only seen one of those in the showroom back when the Lafayette Merc dealer also had Lotus (loooong ago).

    Then back in Lafayette I saw the yellow Elise looking real good, with what looks like a Reverie wing on the back now (I've spotted this car in the past on this forum I think)

    It feels like the summer fever has finally broken! Looking forward to more quality spots next weekend during the Fleurobahn cruise!

    1st photo : I can play the plate game. Of course this has to be a Benson. Have not seen a consistency nor many times of this vehicle/plate. This was at Atlantic where I enter the airport to maintain the planes.


    2nd photo : Sorry for the quality. This was taken the other night when I was at KNEW for a detail on a citation 10.

    Nice spot.

    Lamborghini Academy is hosting an event in BR? Could you tell what was on the door decal?

    I believe it is an old "bull run" sticker.

    Several classics headed towards MS for Cruisin' the Coast.

    Silver Cobra replica on HWY 190 in Covington this afternoon.

    Later saw a red Alfa GTV6, sharp!
