originally posted by t. Are you anywhere near Houston? There is apparently a 599 GTO running around there

 

A few hours from Houston, but we got some 599 GTO's here.

I am told 2 Enzo's & a Lambo SV.

Quite a few Lambo Murc's, Gallardo's of all colors & makes.

A few Countach's, Spyker's etc....

 

I try to catch what I can!

 

We have a Bentley dealer here who also deals with Aston Martin & Lotus, so you can catch some nice ones at the dealership and at local shows.

 

We also have a Ferrari dealership but carries mostly recent models.

 

Then we have a few speacialist type dealers who can get you just about anything your heart desires if you have the coin of course.

Sometimes they have some pretty classic exotic beauties on their showroom floors if you can catch em'.

 

There is alot of $$$ here & alot of toys, but some prefer to be more private & never take their toys to local shows so I try to see whats out there the best that I can.

 

More pics as I can hunt them down!

 

As a side note, back in the 90's I must have seen every color of Testarossa's made they were everywhere here! Now you can pick up a used one for around $45,000.

Yea, I'd been told by people on Flickr and on XBox that there was a lot of cash in Texas, but in a more discrete way than places such as California or New York. I hope you get to see a 599 GTO, if there's one about you'll have plenty of time to find it, trust me you can hear it coming, that noise.. :drool:

 

Ta da!

I am sure that's true. You don't see Ferraris & Bentleys parked everywhere downtown but granted there are alot of cool toys here.

 

Underground Racing 1000 Hp Gallardo, F40, Enzo's, a SV or two.

 

The night I was at the local Need For Speed event saw a lowered Ford GT with GT40 dress louder than you can imagine! Owner must have wanted to emulate an original GT40 closely!

 

To give you another idea of the toys round here....

Here is a local lunch get together meet-up....

Yes! thats a REAL Lime green SV not some kit car, and no it's not just some random pic I took from the web.. it's local toys for sure!

originally posted by tdu66 @ madpioneer, thats a Ford GT Heritage

 

Yeah I have seen & photgraphed one with the Heritage package, but this paticular one had old style honeycomb rims lowered & sounding very raw like a race car not your standard GT sound. Made to look like an old one, wish I could have taken a pic but alas I didn't bring my camera!:sulk:

Awesome photographs, I know :p

 

 

I got the feeling I wasn't meant to be in the car park though because it was a private yacht owners club car park so I just took what I could without being seen and left.
