Yeah sorry, there is horrible wifi connectivity here so I couldn't upload the small version.

Now that I have decent internet.

R8 out in the middle of the desert heading out from the Tiger Woods Dubai golf development.

PS: I love that street name.
I saw that one last week, too. Asking price on the window is (or was) $16K. Looked to be an SC in good shape. Would have to be a fresh engine/tranny rebuild from a reputable shop to justify the asking price...

Quite a speed bump. Looks like the R8 drover is having 2nd thoughts about going over it.

Two spottages. One on Jones Branch Drive near Sallie Mae. (Tysons Corner) Wednesday at 1PM(?). Silver Carrera. Subtle exchange of waves. (Pleasantly surprised that a new 911 owner would recognize a 944. Maybe he just loves old Mazdas.)

Second, Swinks Mill Road at about 6:45PM. Red 944 (either turbo or S2). No wave, no acknowledgement despite my light-flash. Turbo guys think they're too good to wave!

Maybe it was a 944 drover who just bought himself a 996?!?

Sweet Amethyst 964 near New Carrollton Metro today heading toward DSI Electronics for the Tech Session Saturday, March 21. It’s going to be center stage for part of the Tech Session taking it early cause I also wanted to get the car detailed as a suprise for her b-day

And the other guy had just bought the 944 and was trying to get the heater to turn off.

More like methadone for guys who are too tall or fat (or straight) to drive the real thing (a Miata).

Today: 2 944s (both running!) ; 1 996 C4 cab who tried to get away from me (I was in the minivan) but he couldn't.. seems he had trouble holding his cell phone to his ear, while shifting and turning at a traffic light

Yesterday: Red 914 in South Riding
