spotted some nice exotics today - Honda Prelude Forum

PreludeDude01 · 01-24-2007, 12:22 PM

When i get sick, I like to take the lude out for some long drives. I just pick a road and go with it (Preston Rd today). Lucky, I spotted some real nice exotics. I took some pictures with the phone, but i have no way to upload them, so I'll just google them (same color, etc.).

Aston Martin DB9: always parked outside a business in the back of my house.

Ferrari 360 Modena:

Lamborghini Gallardo: brand new, parked on Preston and Frankford Rd

and the surprise of the day:
Rolls Royce Phantom: tried to follow it to take some pictures, but lost it in the housing area.

I'm still awaiting to spot a Enzo or and F40 someday. Sad to say it, but spotting these time to time encourages me to work harder in school and life. I realize that money isn't everything, but these just make you feel so good inside. Anyone agree?

^^I feel you on that Shawn.

Dallas has a ton of nice cars. A simple drive around Dallas, and if you keep your eyes wide open, you'll spot some hot rides.

I have seen all of the above before and an F40. The F40 was hawtness. Sounded so sweet.

Seeing an Enzo would be really difficult. So few were made. Extremely limited production. But I guess the F40 was like that too.

I did see an Enzo at the auto show a few years back.

Yeah there are a ton of nice cars in the Southlake area! Ton of porches, I saw an red enzo at starbucks and the guy let me sit in it. There are two Ford GT's one is red with white stripes and has numbers on the side and the other is yellow with black stripes. Its fun cruisin with them. Oh and more vipers than I can count.

PreludeDude01 · 01-24-2007, 02:29 PM

^ wow! you are lucky to get to sit in one.

Hell, I would have an orgasm just sitting in one. Really, its not the price, the "oooohhss" on peoples faces, the women, or the looks that really gets me, its the power and the hard work that is put in some of these cars. It's like the saying "making the impossible possible" with some of these. I mean, who would have thought that someday, some automaker (Saleen, Caparo t1, etc.) would create a car that would make enough downforce that it can drive upside down (theoretically speaking that is), breaking 200mph (even 250mph), or +1000hp on a daily driven car. There is no reason why, but making it possible is what encourages me. I know for a fact when I get out of college (less than 11/2 years to go), I hope to put the same kind of effort into the Prelude (like Billy does on his). I know there are always going to be people asking why and there's no point, but it's the feeling you get from your creation. Anyone get what I am saying? I'm not that good at saying what I'm thinking. It's hard to put it words.

ha my friends dad has a carerra gt.

and snotsnake knows the guy in rockwall area who has an enzo.

^ Yea, I have been in his garage before. The same guy bought his wife a DB9 that is at that house too.
Around my house I've seen a Noble M12, a white with blue striped Ford GT, a F430, 2 H1s, MANY 911 turbos, and a twin turbo S2k with about 50k in mods (if that counts).

I work for a valet company at D'l Friscos in fort-worth, and I got to drive all those cars already, they are very nice :P

Here is a pic that I found of one of them,

That's the kind of job I need

Sebastian (sp?) - How's it going man? What have you been up to? Haven't seen you around here lately. Then again, I haven't been to any meets. Yeah, I remember you telling how you get to drive these cars at the ONE meet i came to. How did you get that job? Are they hiring?

Dude, when did you get the 911?

Damn guys, I really should get out more.

snotshake · 01-25-2007, 07:28 PM

Tom is also a valet, IIRC and I'm sure he's driven all these cars too.

I'd be down for a job there, but, I still need to get my license crap fixed

Each time I've gone to Ft. Worth, I've seen your car parked at that bank near the stock yards or at least I think it's your car cause there's always a Prelude parked over there
