I am sitting in traffic with a big ole SUV in front of me, but I kept hearing this loud, race car sounding engine that seem to be eminating from in front of the SUV. It didnt sound quite like a V-8, more of a smooth roar than a lopey idle. The light turned green and sound started to change and get much louder. Finally the SUV turned off the road and there in front of me was a Lamborghini Diablo VT. In Black. The rear wing is the highest point on that car and it was level with the door of 2003 Cavalier coupe! It was really the sound of the engine as the driver changed gears which couldnt have been past 2nd gear since the speed limit was 45mph, but geez, anyone down the road who recognized that sound would know the devil was coming there way. I still think it looks great for an exotic. It was the sound of the engine that was the real attention getter! I hadnt seen one in a while, so it was pretty cool to see one again. Anyone else seen one lately?

I saw a Ford GT and a Gallardo over the summer. Those were the best two cars I've seen in person....its amazing!
i saw a cavalier yesterday
i got to drive a 04 sunfire, man what a beast. 0-60 in like WHOA. I almost ran outta fingers counting the seconds. it was INtense.
Neat, I saw a Ford GT in Lauderdale last weekend.
I need to win the lotto.
How many steps to heaven, Doc?
...Ah, metaphysics.
I've driven a Diablo, but it's not for anyone over about 5'9". Masterful piece of automobile engineering I must say.
If it's not network news, it's probably the truth getting out.

I touched the Ford GT at the NAIAS. I drooled on a Gallardo at the mall the other day. I've seen nermous Ferraris. Also saw the Enzo again about 2 feet away at NAIAS.
I <3 ferrari the most still.
there's an old guy that comes to the car cruises in west pa and he owns multipul ferraries and other exotics and a red with white stripes ford GT. All his cars are beast. I have yet to see a lambo though.

Stock... and loving every minute of it.
Saw a older Ferrari and a Diablo, same street, within 2 minutes of each other. What more can you expect from Cocoa Beach though? lol

I saw a chevette with a lift and 33s
bwaaahahahahahahaha!! ive been laughing for about 5 min at that
I see Ferrari's, Lambourgini Countach's and Diablo's and Porsche 911's and everything else every weekend in the summer, since I live just near the exit of the 401, where they all get of the highway and head to Mosport for the weekend and they all eat dinner in town, and since I work quite aways away, I get to see them on the highway also, when they are going back to Toronto, and I am heading to work. I passed a Ferrari 348 one day, when I was doing about 160km/h, then all of a sudden, he dropped it down a gear, and took off, never thought doing 160km/h I'd feel like I was standing still
But I do have to say, I love Ferraris the most (355 spider especially), and also the Countach looks so much better then the Diablo in my opinion.
Aww, man, I thought you were gonna post that you saw the blue devil. THAT would have been the shiz.
Someone in this neighborhood has a Yellow Diablo
I think the coolest thing ive seen on the road is a Lamborghini LM002. If you dont know what this is, search. it is ULTRA rare, i almost wrecked my car looking at it. Someone around here has a Continental GT too
I've seen an LM002 only once and that was one parked outside at Lamborghini USA (their US headquarters at the the time) in Jacksonville, Florida back 1987 or 1988. Any vehicle weighing 6,000lbs that can hit 124mph (offroad) is pretty scary and cool. Sort of a Hummer on steroids.

yeah, they are awesome. I saw one driving around here one day, i couldnt believe it, as i had only seem it in Robb Report
I've seen a Ferrari, Lambo Murcelago (sp) a Bently Cont. GT (twice) tons of BMW 7 Series, and Porsche 911 Turbo (twice)
And I live in Michigan. Gotta love M-59, Troy and Oakland County

Theres a guy where I live who drives through town in his Lambo Gallardo. He even parked it once on a side street next to a ford taurus to go to the bank. It's like his daily driver.. the bastard.
There's an Aston Martin DB7 around here and it seems like everyone has a turbo porshe or a vette.
