Around the corner from Apple in Palo Alto around lunch time today.

I really think this is my favorite color.

Just now, in Boise, Idaho, of all places! Downtown on N 8th and Idaho, storm titanium. Looked like an '06. No mods as far as I could tell. Left them a note.

Red Elise at the Golden cruse night. Score one for Colorado! See, you Californians possibly lose you big dealership and Colorado makes a stunning comeback!

PS there were also 2 or 3 Lotus 7's at the cruse!

Ran into a Storm Ti 240S at a traffic light and talked a little bit. Lots of mods I thought it was this one: 2008 Lotus Exige S240, 1200 miles - $62K Norcal

But driver said it wasn't the one recently for sale ? Pretty sure it was unless the same exact mods were done to two local ST exiges...

Yeah, I knew it was a bit of a stretch, but there was a large Lotus logo on the truck. Dunno who was actually driving, I waved and he nicely waved back to the strange man in the Noble.

That must be the guy that lives in the same condo complex as me - got all the Reverie CF bits

He's not active on this forum but I told him about it.

vienna, va - gt-r

I spotted my first GT-R, here in Tyson's Corner, off Jones Branch drive. Ivory Pearl.

Then when leaving work I followed a black Vanquish S, and the sound was amazing. It has different chrome wheels on it.
