Yes I want to do a poll on who seen highly exotic cars. I start with the most recent I saw a 1999 Ferrari 360 Spider outside of my jobs parking lot. This thing was silver color. Even as he was taking of the lot you could hear his massively powerful V12 engine growl. It was a high rev type growl with a shit load of power behind it. When he let go of the accelerator the car backfired with small blue flame. This thing is not to be mess with. I got in my car and I went to chase it by the time I got outside the parking it was gone <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sad.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':('>. I would of been happy getting smoke by it that would off been a honor in my book :biggrin:

That's not the only beast I seen. I also saw and got stupid with a blue Viper in highway traffic. Well I let you guys fill the rest. A Ferrari Modena a anther yellow viper and anther yellow Ferrari (husband and wife combo). I saw a guy buy a lombo too at a auto show. I also saw a Austin martin DB7.

on my way home from Hot Import Nights in San Mateo i stopped behind this car at a stop light waiting for it to turn green..as me and my friend was talkin and lookin i around i notice the car in front of me said &quot;skyline&quot;..we both looked closer and #### it was R32 Skyline...so big brother skyline was going same way as we were and we just stayed in back of it lookin at it...and as we hit the freeway ramp...the BIG CIRCLE lookin thing that goes into the freeway...there was two lane...two slow cars in front of the skyline and no one in the other lane.....now you do the math...2 lanes + R32 Skyline + Slow cars in front of Skyline + no one in other lane = Skyline gonna take off like crazy...so yeah the skyline downshifted and took off like MADDD ASSS CRAZY....you could see the massive grip it had...and the speed...#### it was fast...i didn't chase it cause sadly that was the day my Stalling/Idle problems started...surprise i made to san mateo...if my car was okay i would've played with big brother skyline..

I see exotics come out from their holes at Lake Tahoe every week or so. . . can't name any names though

Well... I go to beverly hills everyday, so... In the last 3 days I have seen 3 Ferarris, an Aston Martin, 2 Lotus', and one car I couldn't identify... oh and a Blue r32 gt-r, but that was in monterey park.

Well...let me start my list of what I've seen: Almost every other day I see a Red 360 Modena around campus. Owned by a 19 year old kid that is a DBA (Database Administrator) from what I've been told. His dad is also a doctor, so I'm sure that comes into play.

There is someone around here running around in a brand new 911 Twin Turbo...

Speaking of 911 TT's, a guy that used to go to school here had a '97 911 Targa...he comes back one spring break from Cali with a custom twin turbo kit, Gemballa wheels and wing...Pushing near 400RWHP...Unbelievable...He took me for a ride and I literally almost pissed myself. I've never been in anything faster yet. He raced motorcycles for fun...HAHA...I'll see if I can find the one pic I have of it...looked so plain, but when he took off it sounded like a jet! Funny thing is, his dad came from Singapore and drove his car...said, &quot;Bah...too slow!&quot; I later found out why...His dad has a Koenig F348 in Singapore...Check it what that is here:

<a href="http://www.supercars.net/cars/[email protected]$Ferrari%[email protected]$F348a.html" target='_blank'>http://www.supercars.net/cars/[email protected]$Ferrari%[email protected]$F348a.html</a>

And these are the cars I've seen while out driving (around Lafayette, Indianapolis, and Chicago):
Esprit V8 Turbo, 360 Modenas, Diablo, Vector M12, 308GTS(WooHoo Magnum PI!), 360 Challenge, and an Elise...The Esprit was near Indy, same with Diablo, and the rest were all running around Chicago/Oak Brook area.

Not to piss on your corn flakes tigre, but the Ferrari 360 (Modena or Spider) doesn't have a V12, it actually has a V8... The 550 and the 456GT are the V12s.

But getting back to the exotic topic, I used to live in Plano, TX (Dallas area) and there was a specific area of plano where all the football and basketball players lived (Saw Deion Sanders, Michael Irvin, Michael Finley, Troy Aikman a few times) .... so just imagine the number of exotics I'd see everyday, it was heaven for me <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>

the 360 modena is equipped with a 3.6 Liter cinquevalveole V8. It has variable valve timing on the &nbsp;exhaust side, and it is rated at roughly 400 hp. I believe it makes about 260-270 ft-lbs of torque.

Back to cool cars, some fuck at my old high school just turned 15 and a half, his parents went down to symbolic, and got him a 360 F1 Spider. His dad drives the Bugatti Veyron (you've seen it in the papers, that black and red monstrosity with the Quad Turbo W16 that puts out 1100 hp). &nbsp;His mom drives a BMW Z8 with the Hartge 7.0 Liter engine conversion. Needless to say, i will probably forced to steal them just cause they have the phattest cars i have ever seen! hehe.

my good friend and i were out one night, and we saw an old mafia friend of his that used to have a clk, now he's got a ferrari, i beleive it's a spider but it's from 1997 so im not sure if they were 355's back then, he was having trouble with it after a week so we were helping him out, he siad if we fixed he'd let my buddy drive it but we couldnt.

how the fuck were we supposed to diagnose a ferrari, never touched one let alone sat in one and ghawked over the engine bay

the bugatti veyron is a one-off show car. &nbsp;i was under the impression that those weren't for sale.

anyways, say an f40 in japan. &nbsp;sounded like a fighter jet. &nbsp;my jaw just dropped

Dude...You really think his Koenig wasn't modified? :biggrin: &nbsp;From what one of our friends told us, when he went home (S'pore) to visit and they met up with Chuuan's (Dude that had the 911) dad, they were checking out the 348 obviously. &nbsp;He said that the car's boost gauge and tach almost worked in sequence...That's how crazy his dad is...

LOL James...That's why I didn't list it in my list...I don't consider the Viper an exotic...maybe an exotic POS...:) The new ones aren't too bad though...Chrysler is one of the only domestic companies that aren't really too bad. &nbsp;Not like Ford having to stick their dong in Jag's arse and piss with all of their cars. &nbsp;Chrylser actually learned from Lambo instead of screwing it...

I used to Caddy for a guy that worked for the network( NBC or ABC can't remember) He had 7 ferrari's one for each day of teh week. He loved his silver......456. I think it was, anyway I was in love with his 355 F1 Berlinetta!!!! Too many ferraris to count in the bat area. did see a tight F40 though. BENTLEY drop top, Viper RT, Ford Panterra, Lamborghini Diablo and Countach( Lambo dealer in Palo Alto) etc...One astin-martin vantage also. God I love exotic cars.

The other day I saw one of the coolest cars ever, a Caterham Super 7. &nbsp;It was yellow with a black nose. &nbsp;Today I saw a bunch of turboed 200sx's and some sentra's, one turbo KA and one SR 240. &nbsp;Also my car put out some interesting numbers to the wheels, 120 hp and 140 lb/ft torque.

I went to the same highschool as onebadM5 and there is always phat cars rollin around la jolla like S55's and bentley's. It helps when there is an exotic car dealership two blocks from my old highschool which doesn't mind if you go in and look around. &nbsp;Once they had a porsche GT1 and a Ferrari F50 all raced out.

goin to a buddys house, i see this yellow splotch pulling up fast in my rear view, me thinkin it was an integra type R, i slapped my D21 into 3 from 5th, while doing 65,
i see it getting closer, so i &nbsp;punch it like a mad man, i start hittin 75, then 80, and all of a sudden whhhhhhooooooooooommmmmm, a fuckin ferrari just blew by me like i was still.
what kind it was i have no clue, i just saw the round tail-lights in the back, adn the lil horsey, and that was it.
i felt like an ass after that... how could i mistake a Ferrari for a freakin Integra Type R
