Sounds like a good day! You know spring is here when the Ferraris and Lamborghinis bloom.

Here's my list for the season so far around Minneapolis, MN:

1 yellow Lamborghini Murcielago
1 black Bentley Continental GT
1 blue Maserati GranSport coupe
1 yellow Dodge Viper coupe
2 Lotus Esprits (1 yellow, 1 red)
3 Cadillac XLRs (1 red, 1 black, 1 gold)
3 Crossfires (1 black SRT-6 coupe, 1 white roadster, 1 gray coupe)

The only Ferraris I've seen so far were parked outside of the local Maserati dealership: a yellow 355 and a yellow 360 spider.

I presume that if you see a lot of Ferraris and Lamborghinis in NJ, you must be close to NYC. For those of us in the Midwest (excluding Chicago), they're pretty rare. I don't see many XFs here but there are too many BMWs, Mercs, and Audis to count.

Hmmm, I've only seen one 'exotic' since I've been in MI (6 months).
Last week I was coming home at dark and saw a Ford GT. Great thing was, the guy was driving it like it should be driven - haulin' ...



Pic above just for reference.

Andrew, I enjoy your pictures and I must say I am impressed with your camera skills "in traffic" I have actually been eyeing up possible shots while driving around and could not help but notice the "window" of opportunity is rather small in a Crossfire.
