    Down in the Southpark area of Charlotte last week. Stumbled upon these on Wednesday. Portofino with a random Urus in the background, and an F8 Spider. Didn't realize these were being delivered yet.

    Also saw a silver Portofino with the top down driving past the Crabtree Valley Mall in Raleigh on Friday evening, but was not able to get a pic due to traffic.

    ^wow great catch, it isn't very often that you see a pre-458 Ferrari in white!

    Couple of sightings from this past weekend in Raleigh. The red F8 was parked in North Hills on Friday night, and I'm pretty sure it's the same one I've posted on here a few times. The white one was parked in front of Sullivan's in Glenwood South on Saturday evening, and is one that I had not yet seen around.

    Saw what looked to be a black 550 or 575 on 147 in Durham at about 3:45pm today. It was headed towards Durham near the interstate connector construction zone, and I was driving in the other direction so no pics this time.

    I stopped at a light behind a BMW 1802 Touring. Red two door coupe. I don't think I have ever seen this model. Guy driving it had a Viet Nam vet sticker on it. Six Forks and Durant 3:00 pm today

    Was in Charlotte this week. On Wednesday night, I saw a California T parked behind the Whole Foods in Southpark, and just down the street was an F8 and Portofino parked at a restaurant across from the Southpark Mall. On Thursday night, saw an incredible collection of exotics at a restaurant in Ballantyne - a 488 Spider and FF will be of most interest to the F car crowd on here, but other cars included a several "normal" Huracans, a Huracan Performante, two Huracan Evos, several Aventadors, an Aventador SVJ Roadster, a Mercedes-AMG GT R Pro, a Mercedes C63 AMG Black Series, a Dodge Viper ACR, and a McLaren 765LT.

    Had to wipe my eyes and check again in Hillsborough yesterday. I assume this is part of the Ingram Collection, out for a leisurely countryside stroll. (a)Wish I’d been in my 348 to join him, and (b) wish my 348 was an F40 so that I could’ve stayed with him had he decided to stretch its legs.

    Woah :cool:

    I think the Ingrams have a red 959 and a white 959 S (1 of 27 or so produced). Pretty sure there are two silver 959s and maybe a black one in the Triangle as well. Incredible to see one randomly driving through Hillsborough.

    That’s a crazy number of 959s for this small of a market. Imagine if there were an equivalent number of F50’s in this market (sim. production numbers).

    ^the owner of that just recently bought it, sold his 991 GT2RS to make room for it. He also has a 458 Speciale and a Carrera GT and some other cool cars.

    I just bought a 458, but had seriously considered a TR. Seeing that one made me second guess my choice. It was perfect.

    This showed up on IG shortly after C&C. Really cool vid with views from both cars (TR & GT3 Touring):

    A few sightings from the past few weeks.

    Saturday, May 15th, in Charlotte:
    -Rosso Corsa 360 Spider cruising up Providence Rd at the 485 interchange at about 2:30pm. Sounded like it might have had a gated manual.
    -Grigio 488 GTB sitting at the light at New Town Rd a couple hours later. I was driving back up Providence from Waxhaw, didn't see it in time for any pics.
    -Caught a glimpse of a red 488 GTB in the valet at the Southpark Mall a little bit later. Didn't have a chance to take any pics.

    Saturday, May 22nd, in Raleigh:
    -Rosso Corsa 488 Spider at Perry's a little after 9pm.
    -Nero California T at Sullivan's about 9:30pm.
    -Blanco F8 Tributo parked a few blocks away on Glenwood Ave around the same time. Same car that I've posted on here before.

    Sunday, May 23rd, in Cary:
    -Grigio F430 F1 Spider with red interior at Whole Foods a little after 7pm. A silver brand new Audi R8 Spyder pulled in and parked nearby as I was entering the store.

    F8s sure have become pretty popular among Ferrari buyers in Raleigh. Friday night in Glenwood South, never seen a Ferrari in this spec before:
