Default Cars of Laffayette, LA

So ZfrkS and I took a ton of car pics on Saturday, spent the whole day lookin for the best ones. This all started when we went out for ice cream and on our way home this fire red Ferrari went screaming past us going the other direction, and we both looked at one another and we were like "Holy shit! We gotta follow that thing!" We never did find the red one, but we found others. So it turned into an entire day of lookin for the best photo ops we could get. Here they are, in no particular order.



These are all of the same, although you may have figured that out



After all this, we were feelin the heat (90 degrees ferenheit...yikes!!!) and we were gettin tired and hungry, so we went home, had dinner and curled up on the couch for movies. Great day in my mind!

Nice Glamour shot with the Z06 and why would you put that cover on a Corvette? Sadly I'm jadded when it comes to 911's although the TurboS Cab is a rare sight. And gotta let the Ford Guy come out now; Fuck Yeah Ford GT baby!

the Z06 was in a perfect pose too Almost as if the owner knew someone would be taking pics of it that day Wish i had gotten a shot of the nose badge on it. It was a 50th Anniversary Edition (that was the only pic i was able to weasel the camera out of her hands for, except for taking her pic in front the 575M

the dealership was closed :cry: i would have loved to get closer, but i think maybe it had to do with the fact that it was Sunday, maybe sundays in louisiana are different than in washington, because ours are open on sunday.

I think I missed something here, but were you in LA for business or pleasure Aleighy? Washington state sure is a long ways away. Anyways you guys did end up seeing some sweet rides, that 575 is to die for, I have only ever seen one in the wild and it was a 550, close but not quite. Thanks for the pics!

That was the same 575 i posted a wihle back. She spotted it first and i thought i was going to have to stop her from leaping out the window the Turbo S was driving by us as we were on the way back to the car from getting pics of the Ferrari. It quickly turned from walk to dead sprint and a few prayers for the light to stay red long enough to catch up to it

Had we caught up to the first Ferrari though, i'd have had to put my shameful ride in the what you drive section just so that i could 1 up TT's Enzo, MC12, 430 chase
