^hey, you were close to me! Probably on NE 20th st? I missed a chunk of office-time today though. My manager had us go see Robin Hood today as a work event. Not a bad movie, actually. It helped to have low expectations.

It ain't like taking a SHlT while on the clock Andrew, but it was better than a sharp stick to the eye!

Yeah spotting an exotic in Bellevue is pretty much a guarantee. I mostly see Continental GT's, Quattroporte's, and F430's. And Park Place LTD and the Rolls/Bentley dealership doesn't count! I saw a Jaguar XJ220 in there once.

i forgot to put this one up on tuesday, it's not really an exotic as much as its a collector but i saw a 1964 Rolls Royce Silver Shadow (right hand drive), it was a repo and for sale at a not very nice carlot in bothel. they only want 6k for it and i really thought about getting it, it is in good shape for the most part. i'll get pics of it on saturday and add them.

^nice. Following a Blue X today (less than 1/4 mile behind it) I saw an F430. Almost plain looking now, especially with the 458 almost here, and the Gallardo looks sexier, IMO.

Followed a GT-R headed N on 405 in the dark at about 930P; do those count? I don't think I've driven behind one at night; tails looked great! There is a guy on my new team that owns a GT-R and I'm not sure that they count cause you'll see 3 or more at a meet (usually a couple old farts that own them, too!)

There is an R8 in Monroe of all places (sadly, the original model and not the 5.2 FSI). The guy works at some wine place off of Chain Lake road; across Chain Lake from Lowe's. Pretty young looking kid driving it and I've always hoped he'd give me a reason to crack it! Never has though.

I need to get a better camera phone. I almost took a shot at a ZR-1 (probably the same one, but this time driving next to him) but my phone sucks so bad.

He should have - they are underpowered for the price. Now if that were a 5.2 FSI quattro, it might give him some problems.

They are nice looking cars, though!

Yea the 5.2 V10 are essentially a Gallardo in Audi clothes. Still at there weight and topend definately not a car to play with at highway speeds unless you got some serious power.

^whereas the regular old R8 is an RS4 in more svelte Audi clothes.
