Spotted a gray Ferarri 360 on Hillsborough around 6:45 yesterday.

Also, while this is NOT an exotic in the normal sense of the world, I've never seen one in this country before. So I'm throwing it in anyway...on campus yesterday...Nissan Micra. Mexican plates. Kinda cute little car.

a camry on i-40 the other day

5/11/2007 10:19:39 AM

I know its not an "exotic" but I saw a Supra TT yesterday. Probably the first one I've seen in NYC in the almost 2 yrs I've lived up here.

5/11/2007 1:08:07 PM

^^lmfao. I was like..."wtf... is he tryin to say GTs are everywhere?" there is indeed a camry in that pic.

5/11/2007 1:13:38 PM

lol @ camry

5/11/2007 2:04:44 PM

that gt will get pulled over for a busted tail light

5/11/2007 9:50:02 PM

could be changing lanes to blow the doors off the car in front of him?

5/11/2007 11:51:36 PM

Maybach 57

That mofo is huge! (forget the 62... that's a truck!)


And today passing by a showroom, saw the following: Maybach, Phantom, Murcielago, Gallardo, 612 Scaglietti, Quattroporte.

5/13/2007 10:52:10 PM

yeah i see a maybach every now and then in charlotte.


btw i find my sightings impressive since i walk everywhere

5/13/2007 11:10:46 PM

not too terribly exotic but:

07 Gt-500 and a 06 911 Turbo on I-540

5/14/2007 1:18:26 AM

this was like a month back, but I should've posted it. In a span of maybe 2 minutes on I-540, I saw a red z06, yellow z06 and a viper srt10 coupe in blue with white stripes. awesome.

5/18/2007 9:50:58 AM

^wouldn't classify cars we see everyday as exotic. besides, do any of these things even cost over 100k? a loaded viper is like 93k at most.

5/18/2007 9:58:40 AM

i count a viper as the bottom end of exotics.... you could make an arguement for the z06 but since it really doesn't look much different then the base vette (even though its wider etc.) i wouldn't count it.
i also wouldn't count non turbo 911s either.

5/18/2007 10:04:27 AM

i wouldn't count turbo 911's but I would count GT3, GT3 RS's

turbo 911's are just boulevard cruisers

5/18/2007 11:52:24 AM

I didn't know the Z06 was any wider.. I know with the c5's they weren't, only a few engine mods, (slightly different heads and cam basically) and some suspension mods..and some brake ducts of course for the rear brakes that are the only obvious sign body wise.

5/18/2007 12:02:21 PM

C6 Z06's have a lot more changes over the base model, moreso than the C5.

5/18/2007 1:17:29 PM

tons of exotics over here in london. to the point of where american cars are more exotic than about anything else. ive seen about 5 ferrrais today, but only 1 american car, that being an srt-8 magnum. seen one harley too. and a police 3 series beemer persuing a runaway ducati. motorcycles riding agressive as hell trhough traffic, i cant beleive i havent seen one run over by a double decker yet

[Edited on May 19, 2007 at 2:50 PM. Reason : need my camera cord ]

5/19/2007 2:50:22 PM

c6 z06 and shelby cobra (kit) and hundreds of camaro SS's, chevelle's, malibu's, and stingrays at lake wheeler today

5/19/2007 11:02:03 PM

911 GT3 RS heading west on Hillsborough at Gorman, about 5:15 PM. Made me

Obviously not this exact one (I wasn't quick enough with the camera phone), but this exact color scheme:


F'n sweet!

F430 on Cary Parkway

6/10/2007 12:28:50 PM

Got that beat!



Schumacher's 2002 World Championship F1 Racecar. I had to take the photo through the glass at Ferrari on Park Ave, they wouldn't let me take any photos inside They also had an 599, a F430 Spider, and a new Maserati Gran Turismo coupe, but again, no cameras allowed inside.

6/12/2007 10:58:04 PM

Got that beat! (sorry for the extra high-res)










These pictures were taken at the Ferrari Challenge race a few weeks ago and that is an original 250 GTO. 1 of only 33. The owner lives in California, has owned the car for 25 years and has driven it in over 140 events!

The other cars inlclude an F50, 288 GTO, 599 and several others.

6/14/2007 10:14:30 AM

Sweet, Ferrari red Xs!!!

I'm sure they're nice though. Ferrari celebrated their 50th Anniversary in the US a few months ago up here in Manhattan, and somehow I completely missed it all

6/14/2007 1:19:19 PM

wish i still had the pictures of the lotus, maserati, corvettes, benz, porches, beamers, and other vehicles i drove while valeting

6/14/2007 1:33:40 PM

Maybach 62, 997 911TT, Bently GT coupe, Maserati GT Coupe on West Side Hwy yesterday.

6/23/2007 9:16:31 PM

Saw these in the same parking lot, all latest gens:

And I was thinking to myself which one I would choose if I was being given one as a gift. Probably M5.

What Lexus? And you mean it was all modded and shit?

6/28/2007 11:48:31 AM

not sure if it has been posted, but there was a bently coupe over at fresh market a few days ago. parked between other cars (not way out for space).

6/28/2007 11:56:49 AM

saw this vantage racing an infinity G35 this morning on the way to work. sounded awesome.


i see this maserati around all the time, i think it lives near me:


saw this thing in the parking lot at the movies the other night, i'm not sure what it is:


sorry the picture quality isn't the greatest, they are all taken while driving with my phone.

8/6/2007 10:21:44 PM

Just moved into a new neighborhood in lower manhattan. tonight while talking out the dog on a walk I walked past a new Rolls Royce, a new Bently sedan, and then an F430 Spider drove past me twice and then parallel parked, lol.

Think I'll like this neighborhood

8/6/2007 11:11:00 PM

red E46 M3 CSL....the real deal. this isn't really an exotic but it's the first one i've seen in raleigh.

8/7/2007 1:28:12 PM

^nah I'd say that's exotic since they were never sold in the US.

8/7/2007 1:38:41 PM

Saw this:

http://seriouswheels.com/cars/top-2006-Wiesmann-GT.htm

One of the most beautiful things you can lay your eyes on.

8/9/2007 4:04:58 PM

soooo pretty

8/9/2007 6:34:40 PM

Not an exotic, but... I saw a new Z4 coupe today on I-40. MAN those things are hooooooot.

8/9/2007 6:49:34 PM

so i made a trip to charlotte and back to raleigh today

on the way back i saw a car i've never seen before...it was a masserati...it looked pretty cool...looked expensive and shit and the dude had some hot bitch in the car.....i had never seen one but i had heard of it...it looked super fast....i really wish there woulda been something on the road that was a comparable speed to it....idk what it is about rare cars but i wish i could race them to see which would win....anyone know something similar in speed to one of those?....i was told it was "brand new looking"

[Edited on August 11, 2007 at 5:54 PM. Reason : it had dual, dual exhaust(4)...like a set of 2 on the right and a set of 2 on the left]

8/11/2007 5:53:12 PM

did we get an aston martin dealership or something? ive seen so many vantages lately.

also there is a guy that lives off weston parkway with a gt3, i see him driving every now and then

8/11/2007 6:39:20 PM

ive seen two astons this past week also

^^ are you saying that it had "quattro" exhaust "porte"s ??

8/11/2007 6:43:07 PM

i didnt know the technical term ... it had 4 exhaust pipes...2 on the left and 2 on the right- the person riding in the car with me said he looked italian or something...had nc plates

i need to google that brand and see what kinda symbol was on the front of the car...looked kinda cool but i couldnt make out what it was

8/11/2007 6:46:25 PM

what is this?



There's a guy that runs a business out of the storage building place I was at over the weekend and he has one...guess he's making an assload off some ink cartridges.

8/11/2007 6:58:42 PM

^^ DRUNKNDRUNK, YOU HAVEN'T SAID IF IT HAD 2 DOORS OR 4 DOORS

Is this what you saw: http://www.rsportscars.com/eng/cars/maserati_quattroporte.asp ???

Quote :

"^^ are you saying that it had "quattro" exhaust "porte"s ??"

Aha, neat, but quattroporte means 4 doors



^ Ummm... some kind of gheyed up Merc... isn't it obvious it is a Merc?


[Edited on August 11, 2007 at 7:02 PM. Reason : ]

8/11/2007 7:01:20 PM

I know it's a mercedes dip shit I'm asking what model

8/11/2007 7:01:42 PM

it is an SL-Class, dipshit

SL 350
SL 500/550
SL55 AMG
SL 600
SL65 AMG (very unlikely)

who knows, since it is gheyed up from the front, and we can't see the label at the back.
