    On the way home from the event at Seattle Center, I was almost all the way to Silverdale when a 328 went by headed south just below Silverdale at about 4:45 PM.
    Can anyone tell me who it was?
    Thanks,
    Byron (also 328)

    Actually I think that was me Byron. It was just before Chico right? I saw you and waved. I got a couple free hours before heading back to work and went out to a friends house to take some pics and then out for a quick drive. Wish I would have had more time, what a beautiful day!!

    thanks, wish I had seen you better. I was concentrating on a driver in front of me that was undecided about changing lanes.

    I just barely recognized you. You were coming around the corner after Austin Drive.

    Here's a couple pics from that day.
    This guy has the coolest yard. In the background is a hand-built dam that his Grandparents built around 1920!! Just downstream from that was the machine shop/mill/power plant. They reportedly had the first electricity in Silverdale and all driven by a water wheel. I need to get some more pics of the whole place, it's pretty amazing!

    I thought I would dust off this thread to say I spotted a Red 599 going toward silverdale yesterday. What a great looking rolling piece of art! you could spot it a mile away and tell its a Ferrari. Well done to the new owner, look forward to seeing it around. D

    Well, I haven't seen any 599's around and it's not a Ferrari but....... I have been seeing a nice red NSX around town lately. I was headed up Kitasp way last night and we both turned to check out each other's cars.

    This thread was dying from lack of use but it's back again. I've now seen a yellow Lotus (not sure if it's an Exige or Elise?) a couple times on Hwy 3 heading north. Actually spotted it twice in as many weeks.

    Also spotted a beautiful black 308 today leaving the Chevron on Kitsap Way in Bremerton. Funny thing about this one is I think it's a guy I used to work with and who may live within a mile or so of my house. I'll have to look him up and see if it was him. It'd be fun to find out there is another 308 right down the street!!

    Spotted a nice yellow Aston Martin sitting in line at the Kitsap bank drive through in downtown Bremerton. Didn't get a good enough look to tell what model it was though.

    Few and VERY far between posts in this thread. This one was not actually in Silverdale, but did spot a nice red TR in downtown Port Orchard yesterday. Looked like a new owner, it was still on temporary plates. Someone at work told me they saw (probably) the same car about a week ago.

    Saw a red Lotus Esprit heading north on Kitsap Way about 4 this afternoon. No it wasn't Lee, well at least it didn't look like him unless he's grown a white beard!

    It must have been the nice weather yesterday or something but I caught glimpses of a few cars...

    A red 355 parked at MaxRPM in Bremerton
    A yellow 360 at a body shop on Wheaton way in east Bremerton
    A nice yellow Lotus on base at Bangor.

    It was a good day yesterday!!

    Was two cars behing Alex from RPM in one of his monster turbo Porsches as he got on Hwy 3 going north today. He goosed it just a bit on the on-ramp. That thing sounded plain ole wicked!!

    I haven't been to this since it moved from downtown. I've been working nights but am back on days now so will have to plan to check it out next week. Since I broke my arm I haven't had a chance to get the 308 done, but maybe I can get back to it in another week or two.

    I'll see if I can find you!
