    I saw an extremely shiny Buick Grand National today, it was really REALLY loud.

    Do they come in anything but black? Never seen a non-black one.

    EDIT: Just remembered the dark gray Gallardo I saw yesterday, an old lady was driving.

    Quick answer! NO! Only factory color. Like the first year Judge was only Orange. Special order second year Judge was silver and I've seen one white one.

    The Langer has a modified GNX. Shagnasty.

    Seen an Audi R8 over and over again in town. Actually come to think of it, haven't seen it for the last couple of days - may have been arrested cause he was driving like a loon :p

    Ferrari (not sure which one) in the town-center car park 2 days ago.

    Aston Martin DB9 blocking me from my drive briefly last night.

    Oh and (this may not count) a Jaguar XJ220 a few years ago in purple. That was a special day. I was on a bus and it followed behind so I could have a good looksee. If I had lots of disposable money after an Aston...

    On a related note to jhanlon303's post - anyone seen a '69 Judge recently? MMMMM. None round here in the UK, but I'm sure some people in the states must have.

    I can't remember if I've ever seen one of those but I'm jealous that you saw one recently.

    I saw a Muira a while back which is just about my favourite car ever.

    There's a 69 Mustang that lives just up the road from me, those are pretty rare around here. I saw yet another Gallardo today, but there's a place near me where I regularly see 2 Ferrari 430 spider, Bentley GT etc..... its the HQ of an old people's home company! *******s. :p

    Gallardo is the most produced Lambo ever. Something like 5000 in the first 3 years. Just the numbers of them made probably accounts for so many sightings. It probably accounts for so many being wrecked and banged up. Lots of Gallardo wrecks on the web.

    We have one in Westminster. Best chance to see it is breakfast time 6AM - 7AM at Burger King by my house. Dude owns the franchise! [​IMG]

    While driving home from Wickes yesterday, I saw the best numberplate ever, although it was on a Mercedes Estate... :S

    It was: "PWN 3 D"

    Awesome.

    Saw a brand spanking new Jag XF at the shop yesterday. Good sign of brand new-ness: garage plates on it. Meaning it's so new that the registration number still isn't made out. Think 1 week old MAX... and yes, i do think it's pretty. ;)

    Time for a thread revival!

    Sitting in my mums house yesterday i heard a meaty engine rumbling outside so a look out the window revealed...... a brand new Skyline GTR, 3 Lambo Gallardos, 1 Murciealgo (i think. was much bigger than the other lambos) and what looked like an AC Cobra replica! :jawdrop: They stopped for a couple of minutes while the driver of the lead car (GTR) ran into one of my neighbours houses then they all took off with one of the loveliest noises i have ever heard.

    It just goes to show - you do so much work you earn enough to buy a Lamborghini, but then everyone assumes you have a penis visible only under magnification, and then worse there's a recession and you're so broke you have to start renting porn and returning it before work.

    Truly, you cannot win. :sigh:

    Saw a Gallardo chasing after a 360 CS on Sunday. The 360 sounds poo in comparison to the v10 lump in the Lambo. Insane :D

    The Gallardo we see early in the AM for breakfast at Burger King is the Franchise owner here.
