spotted a carrera gt!

i was driving home today on sepulveda and i kept hearing this piercing high-pitched howl, and thought it was some sports bike. i heard it screaming thru the traffic a few times and then the generic car in front of me moved away, and there it was, a Porsche Carrera GT in GT Silver! i thought it might've been leno's, 'cuz i think he was the first to take deliver to one of these. but it wasn't, just this guy. it was sooooo wide and low, much smaller than it seems in pictures. and it made some SWEET sounds

these things are still quite rare, i was very suprised to actually see one on the road. think it's probably the most perfectly engineered super car ever, and it's beautiful too. i think it looks best in guards red

Saw one in dealer and another on street. They are really sweet but seem smaller than Ferrari. Nice to be able to afford. It's one of those cars you don't want to crash due to CF panels. Saw one cashed and it was pretty much taken apart for rebuilt.
