Today I saw the most exotics I've ever seen in one day and only managed to get one picture.



I also saw a red Ford GT, 2 360's, a F430, a Murcielago roadster, a Phantom, a new XF-R, and brand new M6. The car gods were looking down on me today.

Legit how, though? It was a Corvette in Caddy's clothing without any of the Corvette performance. It would never survive today.

I've got a bit of a backlog here so bare with me.

This is one of several private warehouses of a local dealership magnate and it's kitty corner to my work so each time the weather gets nice, chances are the door is open and something rare and Italian is out and about. Thankfully the guys who are lucky enough to be in charge of these amazing machines are totally cool. They answer questions and don't mind people taking pictures so long as you're respectful.

November 27, 2012 - He loaned his Enzo to a company looking to make a scale model of it. The guy you see in these pictures is applying small pieces of 3M blue painter's tape to the extremities so the digital camera has points of reference.







Two days later....four guys came to unlock the warehouse and take the F50, Testerossa and the 308 to the Ferrari service department across town for what the guy in charge told me was "winter maintenance".



The F50 looks high here because the nose is adjustable so it can go over driveway ramps and speed bumps.


Check the license plate...


A peek inside.


Totally unrelated but I saw this on the road in the rain last week. I believe it belongs to a local basketball player.

As much as I love the F50 (& that Miura), what a spot on the Diablo GT! There's less than 5 of those in the US, & probably the only yellow one here.

Alright folks...well the sun was out today and guess what? A few more exotics trickled out into the light.

Diable GT - The caretaker told me this is actually one of only two in the United States. Out of the eighty produced, fifty were road-legal and thirty were track-only cars with this one being imported without the engine to skirt emissions laws.

















There's a DeLorean back there!!


After the GT came out, this followed!!!!!

Per Wikipedia, the world's most trusted source for reliable information, the total production figure stands at 19; two pre-production vehicles and 17 customer cars.

My pleasure. I'd be a fool to see this and not share it with other gear heads.
