Wow @ the Koenigsegg.

That might be the only car that I'd really be interested to see these days.

I used to live in Stamford, CT, and thought we had a lot of Italian exotics around there. But Scottsdale, AZ, is totally off the hook. I see a Ferrari or Lambo pretty much every day, as well as many more obscure exotics (been seeing an orange McLaren MP4-12C around lately - beautiful).

Check out these pics from the recent Scottsdale Polo Championships "Horses and Horsepower" event (you will have to suffer through a lot of photos of girls between car pics... sorry): http://www.flickr.com/groups/1763920@N25/

If anyone is in the area, there's a group called Scuderia Southwest (https://www.facebook.com/pages/Scude...59339130752249) that hosts an exotic car hangout the first Saturday of every month at Gainey Ranch in Scottsdale. A normal day might see 10-20 Ferraris, 5-10 Lambos, some rare Porsches, a DeLorean, vintage Jags, etc, etc. It's totally awesome.

Couple more pics....

Here are a couple of the Phoenix Coyotes Paw Patrol cheerleader squad in my 328:


And another from the track day two months ago:

^^^Yep, Scottsdale has a ton of nice cars. I used to have an office in the are of Raintree & 101 and I would generally see at least one exotic each day.

Funny coincidence, I worked in Stamford and lived/worked in Scottsdale! Check out the first post of this thread, I started it when I was living in Mesa and working in N. Scottsdale at the time. Exotics were so weirdly common there. Now that I live in Nashville, um, not so many exotics running around lol. Oh and awesome photo ^ by the way!

Not sure if that would jog your memory... They're very sweet girls -- I'm involved with Big Brothers Big Sisters and they came out to help us at this fundraiser.

I know, right? yeah, it WAS a mall, and that's how it is here... some of these (Chinese) folks don't really see their cars as "exotics" like us everyday folks do

I saw one at the mall by me once, but it was valeted outside The Capital Grille where I'm pretty sure they parked it there for it to be on display. The "common" Mercedes', Jaguars and the like usually go into the blocked off valet spots.
