Spotted a Red Ferrari Enzo (is there any other color for a Ferrari) and a Red Saleen S7 on Saturday.
The Saleen was located just outside a local Starbucks where it was getting more pictures taken than a lot of movie stars during Oscar night.
What a day for cars, very rare to see but is nice to know that there is still money in the city.

Spotted a beautiful 993 C4S driving around today in downtown Calgary. It was bright red with what looked to be black interior. Totally stock. Looked fantastic. Again so nice to see some older porsches vs the everyday boxters, caymans, 996's and 997's!

I had mine out yesterday and today....before the winds shifted from westerly to northerly. Saw a red Testarossa and red 360 Spyder yesterday....a nice vintage pale yellow (not sure as it was from a distance) 911 a few days back.

we arrived japan few days ago for a 6 wk. stay to renew my japanese residence visa and as final "check" towards making a decision as to whether or not we will relocate back to tokyo next yr. (have lived in japan for the greatest part of last 14 yrs).
spent this afternoon in omotesando area (upscale shopping area) & great for car watching (among other things).....here's a few snaps taken in a period of about 90 minutes....area is full of daimler AMG product, 996's/997's so did not bother with those.....regrettably not a lambo in site (unusual), and yesterday was up close with a new maserati vert but no camera.....
absolutely stunning, new out of the box GT R....& while i prefer it in flat black, have to admit this was nice.....saw several older ones prowling the street
tin topped vert by renault....the french cars and italian, particularly new alfa romeos popular here
this one kind of interesting a toyota imperial, built strictly for the domestic market, and soley as a chauffeured limo. formerly powered by a big 8, now powered by v-12
beautiful 993 turbo, either on its way to the shop, or new owner
1st of 3 bentleys
absolutely pristine 964.....followed by another bentley
same corner, opposite side.....spectacular baby blue bentley vert
2nd best sounding car of the day, very nice 68 ( i believe) camaro ss
of course.....ferrari
and for interest a "billboard truck" full bore truck/tractor rig, pure white which drives around -same route in omotesando-shibuya shopping areas in this case advertising a new music release
have a few cars i want to see while i am here (964's primarily) and if schedule works out with my wife (my japanese is not good enough and will require some translation help) will try and get to my favorite porsch tuner shop in chiba "rauh welt" to see if any builds in progress......
