    Paul Frame has sold most/all of his Ferraris. His company, Seitel, fell on hard times ala Enron. He resigned some time ago.

    No, I beleive it belongs to one of the sons of the lawyer Jamail. See the car everyday, outside, but the guy seems pretty active: car always park different (drives it) hood open, him working on it or something.
    Other cars are 360 spyder, cayenns S, MB 600. Not bad...
    I always considered stopping by in my Fcar to see if he would be interested in taking me for a test drive. Never dared...

    the enzo belongs to dahl jamail. both he and his brother live on troon. he is also known from his days as the singer of a band called titty bingo. today he is an attorney. he also had an 328 made of aluminum back in the late eighties. the car keeps showing up on ebay, but has yet to find a buyer. jamail has had many cras over the last several years, including an f-50 amongst others. although the time i have seen the enzo, it looks unused and in need of a wash. it is always sitting under the car port. i would be interested to see how many miles he has put on it.

    Sad to hear Paul sold most of his F-cars, he is a cool guy. He drove the sh*** out of that F50. I remember him telling me that for what he paid on the lease for that car he better drive it. At least his daughter didn't suffer as she drove an Acura while his dad drove the F50, I guess she's still in an Acura.

    paul was a true ferrari enthusiast. although he doesn't have the car collection he once had, he still has to be admired for his love of the marque.

    3 Ferraris within 1 minute. On Westhiemer near Sage, 2 yellow 360 spyders and a Red 355 spyder. But they're for rent hyping up the Superbowl. Uugh... kind of makes me sick.

    Remember Amir that P. Diddy is in town for a week. I still understand what the big deal is all about, it will be great for the businesses & clubs he's attending.

    Came out from dinner tonight in the Panther Creek shopping center in The Woodlands to find a stunning silver 456 parked right next to me! I wrecked my Boxster yesterday so this surprise cheered me up a bit :)

    Hi Rex, are you in The Woodlands, if so PM me cause we get together for runs every now and then, even wreaked Boxsters. And no, I have never seen a 456 up here.

    Sorry to hear about your mishap

    HOLY CRAP! I saw an Yellow Enzo getting onto 59 right at Kirby. I was in my NSX and that guy took off on me like I was stopped.

    Hey Ralph, what color was it?

    I saw one too near Westheimer and Chimney Rock at one of the rental places. They have all their cars lined up out front for the 'high rollers' who are coming for the big game.

    Jason I had to keep my eye on the road. I am sure that is the same
    car. I am pretty sure it was a dark brown and tan metallic. It was
    at the car wash next to the hot dog stand. It will probably be cleaned
    again on Friday. How much $$ to rent an exotic for the weekend ? lol


    Dale I have a deal for your car. We can rent your car for lots of $$$ !!
    With the money you can move up to a kit car; or a fancy 1959 Caddy
