Arrow Exotic Sightings

I was on my way home from work today and saw this:



I think this may only be the second new-ish Ferrari (or any other extoic for that matter) that I've seen in person, out on the roads (not including car shows, etc.)

What have you all seen?

I mostly see a a lot of muscle cars, classics, and hot rods but not too many exotics on the roads around here. There is red Lamborgini I usually see once or twice in the summer. One of the engineers where I work has a early 80's Ferrari that he drives to work some times in the summer. I saw a BMW Z8 on the road last year. I see a lot of Porsches mostly boxsters so they don't count. A few random sightings over the years but those are the only ones that stand out right now.

Where I live it used to be John Deere, International Harvester. Now it's lots of Jags, Hummers, and quite a few Rolls Royces. Even saw a beautiful Bentley recently. The poor folks drive BMW, Mercedes and the like. The absolutely destitute drive HHR's !

Did you hear about the guy who wrecked an enzo?The cops came and the guy told them someone else was driving but the guy had a bloody lip or something and there was blood only on the drivers airbag.It doesn't even take my detective skills to figure that one out.

Car: 2004 Ferrari Enzo

Location: Milan, Italy

Description:

41 year old driver was killed after losing control of his Enzo at 150 MPH. The impact was so great that it tore the car into several pieces. Locals reported having seen and heard an Enzo being driven very hard the day before. Most likely it was the same car. Accident happened on October 30th, 2005.

It sometimes takes a tragedy like this to realize how dangerous reckless driving is. This driver, who was able to afford a 1 million dollar car, lost his life to a careless decision.

Betcha can't guess which car this is:





Caption: One morning grampa wakes up and notices there's a Viper parked upside down in his front yard.

Flip it over - I think it's done!
