Ok, since i spoted at least 3-4 FTO per day, & drive one as well, it isn't exciting as spotting a supercar. So i thought i start one
Today Lamborghini Gallardo, yes the one that haven't launch in Oz yet! And NO its not a Murcielago.
Yesterday, Ferrari Stradale Challenge (He seem to be around the area all the time), Maserati 3200 GT, SL 500 (2003 model)
Last wk, Lamborghini Diablo SV 6, 911 Turbo (996 Model), Morgan Aero 8
Ohhh & i saw them all either from my shop or on Clarendon St (Vic) as i go home.
Anyone else spotted supercar??

recently no but last year i've seen:
1. Diablo at Footscray (i know what you're thinking, WTF is a Lambo doing @ Footscray)
2. Ferrari Enzo at the international motor show
3. Ferrari 360 Modena spider at Doncaster and Alexandra Ave
4. yellow NSX (with white wheels and GT wing) along Burwood Hwy
5. one horny as hell red Porsche 911 GT2 @ Abbotsford
6. SL500 (2003 model) @ Williamstown
that's all I can remember and no, I'm not making this up! i know what i saw...

Well the NSX with GT wing is now got black rims & NOS. His brother got a JDM spec 4 door Type R running T04 turbo!!!!
And the answer for the lambo in Footscray, it could b the old lambo that Mark Philo use 2 drive when he was in Footscray???

i assure u, Phillo would have no reason to drive that thing at Footscray... he'd be too busy cruising around his home turf @ Williamstown picking up latte-sipping chicks...
word has it that he has sold them all and last time i heard he bought an Audi or something...

If the Maserati 3200 GT is the same one that the vampire chick drives in the Underworld movie, then I always see it on Glenhuntly Rd in Elsternwick.
I've also seen a Lambo Murcielago on Warrigal Rd once.

Yeah it could've easily have come from that direction. Don't think they are many in Sydney, let alone Australia!

Yeah, I also noticed a couple of mature age ladies behind SL500s. SL500s are getting quite common these days also. Not really in the Supercar class though I guess.
Once I also saw a SL55 AMG in down town Parramatta.....that's right Parra! NOI for those that live there
Hard-top convertible is definately the way to go though...pimpin'!

i spotted a nice dark blue one of those turbo porches in mosman when i went to the zoo on saturday,....
honestly there must have been a porche convention, i saw about 10 porches ranging from the turbo, down to carerras/targas and some boxters....though the ferrari on the way home was the highlight
oh and i wanna go shopping at mosmon automotive...drove past it when i missed the zoo turn off....lovely ferrari and porche combo parked out the front....wonder what id get for a trade in

saw a red Ferrari 360 Modena Spider cruising past Fitzroy Gardens last weekend as i was coming out of the Garden show... the owner/driver looked like Luigi LoL...
Sounds heavenly though'...
also a silver Porshce 911 Turbo parked @ Flemington (Racecourse Rd).
oh and lastly a black Diablo flying along Eastern freeway on Sunday... good to see a car being driven the way it's meant to be driven - HARD.

I saw one of these (I think) on Blackburn Road Mt. Waverly around lunchtime, he was driving it like he, er, 'borrowed' it.

Last Friday lunch time on York St, Sydney heading south, a black Bentley Continental GT! Damn! It had the number plate " GT WO".
First one I've seen on the road. The elderly gentleman driving it gave the W12 a little fang as well. Sounds like a beast! The wheels are massive but the car has pretty big arches though.
