Default I just got back from America's Monaco..

So today i just got back from my holiday trip to Miami Beach.. I took 3 memory cards (256,128,16) and filled them to the brim. In 3 days time weds-friday i saw a large amount of Ferraris, Lambos and Beautiful cars!
Heres the count... 7 360s (black,silver,red): 1 575 (red), 3 Gallardos (Yellow, dark blue), a Biturbo 900hp Diablo, a Vanquish, 3 997s, a 356, a few modified Porsches, Some muscle cars, Tons of AMG Cars, a smart car, 2 Vipers (yellow rt10, silver srt10), 2002-03 saleen mustang, Continental GT, alot of bling cars including a mini on 20s, an old convertible on gold 24s, a few japanese imported vehicles (RHD Supra MK4, Celsor) and the rest have slipped my mind.. alot of pics came out a bit dark so its gonna be a little while till they are uploaded but here are the ones that are already up.. enjoy!!!

PS I didnt take pics of all the cars listed above, only about 75% of them sorry only 1 gallrado pic still had alot of great shots so enjoy!

Last 22 pics of the 997 are new..

Very nice sightings!! Too bad most of the pics are just too blurry you should have used a tripod, but it seems most of the cars where moving... why not more pics with daylight?

Still, thanks for these pics!

yea sorry about the blurryness of some of the pics.. most of the night pics were taken last night, and quite frankly taking a a tripod wouldent of helped bcuz mst of the cars were on the move.. its hard to find cars during the day, they mostly come out at night.. and the smart is "exotic" only bcuz its not sold in the US and its was from quebec.. other than that the smart is poo.. I nearly laughed my ass off in front of the driver bcuz he said that he paid 22,000 canadian (apprx. 17,000USD) for it..
yea as for the blurry night pics, its hard to keep the cars still and i didnt use that much of a flash bcuz my cam takes forever to get ready for the snap shots when the flash is enabled..
ps the blurry day pics like the gallardo's were bcuz i had to run across medians to snap the pic while the car was driving by.. the gallrdo was probably doing 35-45mph in that pic.

The 997's need to be seen in person to appreciate their differences from the 996. I've seen one in person and i dreweled all the way home. Thnks for the pics.
