Default The chase is on for an F430! [I finally got it!!!!!!!!!!]

ok, i've mentioned that there was a yellow Gallardo running around town and that the guy was just driving it while he waited for his F430 to get delivered. Well, today the Mercedes service advisor got a call from him saying that he has taken delivery of the Ferrari!!!!!

He plans on going over to the guy's house soemtime this weekend possibly so i'm going to try and tag along if i can for a photo op.

Keep an eye on this thread for the update

the service advisor said he was going this weekend if he got the time. I gave him my number so he can call me before he does. Hopefully he remembers

I saw two red ones today in Geneva. Not the same car, one of them had ambassador license plates on them.

Funnily enough, I also saw a silver Aston Martin DB9 following a speeding Silver Lamborghini Gallardo!

Too bad my arms were full and had no camera on me =(

Well... not the first time I see cars like these, so it's not all lost time :p

Good news, but unless you actually have pics this probably isn't the right section yet.

don't know where the hell else to put it :bah:

I figured i'd just post it up here since i'm 95% confident i'll have the shots this weekend. If TT thinks otherwise i'm sure he'll move it and then move it back later :bah:
