    I had quite the sighting at school today (BYU). Black 599 F1 with a yellow steering wheel and a gray R8. I'll have pictures later.

    Another rare sighting. I was down at my friends performance Dyno shop in Orem and the shop next door had a R33 Skyling GT-R and a Sylvia.

    I know a spot is much more exciting with a picture so I took this with my camera phone. I saw this as at the jazz game tonight (valet parking in front of gateway). This is about the 15th one I've seen in Salt Lake. I am still kind of surprised they don't have a bentley dealership here.

    I know I'm the only person on the planet that feels this way but I don't understand the excitement over the R8. The looks don't work for me from any angle. The 599 on the other hand works for me from every angle.

    Join the club, I absolutely despise the looks of the new R8.

    Nice pics S Brake. Around here there hasn't been much at all. As for the R8, I saw one in person and thought it looked okay. I've seen worse, but I've also seen better. And the price seems steep, I'd go for a 911 instead.

    Seen two - one was yesterday on the showroom floor (the other on the road in July). Frankly, I like it, but I don't love it. It's, in my book, a very cautious design: Audi didn't want to polarize anyone with their first entry so they went with something that looks like they think a car like this should. Basically, they didn't move the game on at all. In my view, cars like this should make you go crazy with excitement. Sadly, very few do anymore. Even Ferrari's recent designs are less and less daring and more and more toned-down.

    I miss the styling of cars like the Lamborghini Diablo. :(

    Saw this at the jazz game tonight. There was also a black bentley gt in there. I guess everyone must be going to Denver for their Bentley's. I figure we don't have too much exotic spotting left with the weather turning, but only time will tell.

    Well, I hope you all enjoy this little treat. Definitely not my choice of color for a lambo, but it sure was a sight to see in real life. Spotted at Valet parking at the gateway before the jazz game. (Hint) probably the best place in all of the utah to see nice cars. Anyway, this probably wraps it up until next Spring. If I see something I'll be the first to post it. But with the weather changing I am not counting on much. That is, unless I make a trip down for the Sundance festival and get a few pics.

    Nice Lambo. Riley always takes cares of the exotics. Ask the Valets whats been in the money spots. They'll know.

    I will try and post when a collector in Logan will show his collection. It is an amazing collection.

    Dreaming,

    You're correct! It is an amazing collection. When he displayed it over the summer a few on the board went and took pictures. Look for a thread a back in June that was started by Yoda. There are plenty of great pictures in there.

    Saw a silver 612 heading south at the very end of South Logan near Providence on main street today. Very surprising to see in December, but the weather has been pretty good here lately (we have very little snow but I've heard Salt Lake area has gotten a lot).

    I have it on good authority that there is more money in Cache Valley than you would ever guess. I would feel safe saying more than 5 less than 10. Although I only know of a couple personally.

    Of course you own couple... rather nice vintage ferrari's yourself... (and are located in the Cache Valley, according to your profile)
