Re: whats the rarest car you've seen on the street?

I've seen an SLR McClaren on the streets of Charleston, SC.

I've also spotted much old school muscle with rare options.

Porsche Panamera coming back from testing at the Nurburgring.

I did not have a camera with me but here are some early press photos.

Really? one of my dads friends owns a Noble M12 GTO. Just saw it the other day while going to Walmart. I believe the color of it was Azure Blue. But anyway, sightings are very usual around here. Neighbor owns a red NSX-T. Other neighbor owns a shelby cobra recreation (replica). Another neighbor of ours had an orange Gallardo. (I could try and see if I could get photos). Now recently, I saw a Red Ford GT. (with white stripes). It had red rims with a chrome outer 'lip'. This was around the Florida Mall Area. Very interesting combination. Lots of Jag XK's and XKR's around Orlando. oh and also saw a Black Nissan-GTR in Orlando the other day. Hood and roof-line were very glossy. I have a strong feeling it was the Spec-V edition. Now, the rarest car I've ever seen is a Bugatti Veyron and a Rolls Royce DropHead Coupe. Both spotted while on a vacation to Miami. Now, as soon as I saw the front of the car (Veyron), I searched for my camera and before I could snap a picture, it was gone. So far, I only know of 4 Bugatti Veyrons in the South/Central part of Florida. One of them is a Pur Sang Edition, another is a Red/Cream (ext.), with two tone red/cream interior. And the other two are Black/Black veyrons. One of them owned by music producer and buisness mogul Scott Storch. Sorry for the long post, but there are actually some interesting cars here in Fl.
Locations: Central/South Florida.
Location Bugatti Veyron:around South Beach

Sorry the quality is so bad, I had to zoom in to get a better picture. (both)

I'll try and get some more photos if I have time. Buti n the mean time, here are some photos of cars that you could usually see around Fl.






Hope these pictures aren't too big.

Re: whats the rarest car you've seen on the street?

Saw a Lamborghini Reventon in downtown Vancouver last week. Dark gray, totally evil looking. Took my breath away.

Also saw a Lotus Exige the other day, I didn't even know they were legal here.
