    This is a little late, but I saw a Lamborghini Gallardo on West Broadway, about 2 or 3 blocks east of Alma as I myself was taking the 99-B bus from UBC back home. Go public transit! :)

    Several 996TT's, in downtown and gastown.

    A red 360 spyder on robson. Middle of saturday afternoon and the guy trips really slow away from the lights then lets rip in first gear. Sounded cool - but bit of a wanker.

    A red testarossa (i think - didn't look like a TR) down by the waterfront after work one day. The testarossa has been the coolest so far! :)

    Oh - and I saw a reaally fine looking japanese girl driving a dark green S500 up by chapters on robson last weekend. Wow.

    I couldn't see anyway to approach her - but damn I would've liked to say hi.

    Saw a Yellow Lamborghini Gallardo blasting the onramp onto the Arthur Lang Bridge, heading into Van. I've seen the cars in the show room but they looks soo much better on the road..




    Also I'm looking for someone to share the Ferrari Experience with me. ..

    Well, if none of your Canadian brethren will come through...I am bringing a contingent of about 20 Americans with Ferraris in June...we'll definitely hook you up! :)

    I may even come up before then.

    there was a silver maranello parked right across from where my house a couple days ago. It was at night, and it was raining at the time. I might post some pictures of it later on.

    I love the Murcie, but for some reason, it doesn't look good in Red. Maybe if I saw it in person, it would be better, but in these pics, it doesn't do it for me...

    I don't care about the colour as much as I care about the car. I just want to have a seat in the drivers seat.

    8am, on pender and howe, I spot the rarest car within BC. It might not be the most beautiful or fastest but for sure the rarest. So there I am walking down pender to get to my building and I see a Peugeot 206 Hatch pull over and it had Euro plates on it. I wish I was rich and could bring such a car over. Just for people that don't kow, you can legaly bring over any car that is insured overseas for a max period of 1 year. Then you have to get insurance here or ship it out. And getting it insured here would be next to impossible. I want a nice car..

    I've seen a light blue Peugeot coupe in and around Vancouver with french plates on it. It was the coupe model that's bigger than the 206 but smaller than a 607.

    I've since seen it with a BC plate covering the french plate! cool sighting nonetheless!

    It could have B.C. issued consulate plates on it. I remember at an auction a few years ago, I saw an old RHD Mini with consulate plates covering UK plates...

    And back in Montreal (the mid '90's), I saw on several occasions a BMW Z1 (the one with the unique doors that slid down into the sills). That was really neat!

    Yes, they are neat! There is a Z1 that runs around here in Toronto. It came in with foreign plates, looked to be from the middle east somewhere. Now it has regular Ontario plates. Don't know how he got such a car to pass but its here. Very cool car.

    Happy Spotting!
