No offense, but that's not really worthy of a photo IMO.

It's certainly not as rare as some of the cars in here and no offense, but Portland doesn't have tons of exotics like Phoenix. In fact our Lamborghini dealership just closed down so...

The reason it's rare is that people here buy GCs, beat the crap out of them and then ditch them. The 5.9 was very rare to begin with so this is how it plays out in terms of rarity from least to most:

Beat Up GC > Mint GC > Beat Up 5.9 > Hen's Teeth > Mint 5.9

CTS-V coupe looks like all they had was a ruler and a pencil in the studio the day the final design was due. The rear end is hideous.

I actually like the look of the coupe.

How do you know that was the first one made? Usually those cars go into museums right away.

The owner of the dealer (who was driving it) had all these papers saying it was the first one. Also, the vin confirmed it, I checked myself. Also, there was some etching in the leather, but I couldn't make it out, but it seemed out of place, this one was definitely the first. But they have it marked up +20 grand from the 72 grand sticker price.

The nice cars are out now and of course I've been missing them all.

Saw an Aston DB9 yesterday and an F355 Spider two nights ago.

Apparently people in Northern VA love their 5 Series GT. Second one I saw this week.



Dealer has been stopping by my work recently trying to sell this Tesla. He's been parking it outside during lunch breaks



My office is also next to the VW/Audi building at Herndon, saw the new gen Jetta, sorry no pics. Also saw a R8 yesterday, again no pics.

OMG R34

I saw this today while I was being dragged to the zoo by my girlfriend ...





Look at the tires on this thing!...



I got to drive an Audi S8 and this on Friday night:





Remember the guy with both the white and black Corvette ZR1's? He came up on Friday night in the white one. I asked him why he never drove the black one and he said he sold it

I wouldn't normally take a photo of just another 911, but this one in person looked sick. I guess maybe it doesn't translate as much in the photo, but I liked it.
