NoVa car oddities - Goodspeed - 05-07-2006
Well i'm up here in the DC area for a few days, and already have seen quite a few rare and interesting cars....
First I saw an FD RX7 that had its roof chopped off and had a custom convertible top in place, parked next to a tiny 60's Austin Mini....
Next I saw a complete VeilSide 350Z coming out of a Nissan dealership, had the whole body kit, wheels, and graphics of the original car
And today, I saw a white R32 GT-R in Merrifield, hauling down the road sounding great. I know theres a white one in Alexandria, I wonder if this was the same car...interesting how I saw a very rare and now illegal GT-R before I saw any form of Supra haha
I'm sure this is nothing to those of you who live up here, but this was an interesting two days for me 8)

i've seen more supra's in H-burg than i have here in nova.
the rarest car i've seen on the road here in northern va is a bright yellow Ferrari F50 and a grey RHD Skyline R32
there are some ballers with some serious money and connections in northern va

lol you should have gone to the euro meet then which was today near me
- Goodspeed - 05-07-2006
Yeah I didn't know I was going to be coming up here, kind of a spur of the moment thing. And today I saw a TT, so seeing a Skyline and Supra in the same day was pretty cool
Oh and I've literally seen about 20-25 E46 M3's since I've been up here...

those are f-ing hot
i like the new M-Coupe (hatch) and i can't wait till that comes out. I'm hoping my mom can convince the BMW dealership that it's for me so i can test drive it. That or i'll convince my mom to test drive it and for me to also test drive it.

I want an M3.
Bastard Nova kids.
- Feersty - 05-07-2006
Saw a orange Lamborghini Gallardo the other day. Saw the new M roadster and an E30 M3 with dirtyass rimz at BMW of Sterling and a new M5 at BMW of Fairfax. M3 is dime a dozen round these parts...
Nothing too rare though lately..

I spotted an F40 on Rt. 7 outside of Purcellville about a week ago.

A doctor in town has a Panoz Esperante GTLM. Red, supercharged and beautiful.
- Jeff - 05-08-2006
I saw...well...nothing. Outside the 63' Chrysler 300 I drove the other day I haven't seen anything interesting in weeks.

On a side note, my parents rented a Chevy Uplander minivan to help move my stuff out of the dorm....tell me this doesn't look like a manatee...

... I won't tell you that, because it is not true.
It simply looks like all the ugly ass non-Corvette Chevys.

I didn't see who was driving it, but it was parked in the basement garage of an office building in McLean. It was a kind of pinkish-red in color, with chrome wheels
