Nick: I'm in downtown Raleigh every now and then, but I've never seen anything there. Man, I really need to get out more! @flacolp-700: I agree with Nick, tell him to get an Aston. Maybe the new Vantage GT. That only costs $100K, which is cheap for an exotic car.
Yea the dude that told me that lives in north raleigh and he said he sees exotics all the time! He has a pretty big house himself!
He said that he might think about a low end exotic like a 911 or maserati!
Not sure if you're ever in downtown Raleigh, but I did see a 360 Spyder at Benchmark Auto at the corner of Davie and Dawson St. I think the owner owns the repair shop, although I haven't ever seen it there before.
Yeah I haven't seen it in a loooong time. I'm starting to wonder if he sold it. I would see it occasionally driving around in downtown Raleigh near the Wells Fargo Bank and along Hillsborough St in NC State, but I don't think I've seen it in about two years.
I've never paid much attention to it either, I just heard it was going to go to NC this year, so I looked it up and found out the info. But yea, I'd pay more attention to it if it came to places where I could see it more often.
Same here Nick. I never really think about it much because it never goes anywhere that I'd be able to see it. I didn't even realize it was stopping in Charlotte until this morning when I read these comments. Really hope you can find a way to make it down though, looks like it'll be awesome. If you can't, keep an eye on my Flickr page because I'll definitely be uploading some pictures!
I always forget about Gumball 3000. I'd clearly like to go and try to meet everyone, but I don't think I'll have a chance to : ( Hopefully all of you have fun though!
@mazdafreak Yea, there are a ton if cool cars in Virginia. I see exotics basically every time I go up there. You should head up there sometime! @cargame_parker I'm sure a lot of NC spotters will be there. I know I will! @nitsud I see you found the info yourself!
So where exactly is Gumball going to be at the NASCAR Hall of Fame? I'd really like to go see it. Are they just going be all be parked out front or something? Also, do you guys know what time of day they'll be there?
There is an 80% chance of me heading to Atlanta for Gumball and will
probably 100% go to NASCAR if we don't go to Atlanta. I will try to meet some
of you or see some if you again if your there
Virginia seems to have some awesome cars. I haven't been there in years, but I remember my dad and I drove up there one weekend because he needed to buy something, and I saw a white Corvette ZR1 on the way there and grey Ferrari F430 Spider on the way back (both just outside of Virginia Beach). There are a couple of people that have uploaded some INSANE exotics from Tysons Corner...I'm gonna have to check it out sometime.
So C&C isn't starting again till September? That's sad. There have been several very close calls with spirited exits lately; a new 911 GT3 literally flew over a speed bump a few months back, and there was this awesome looking modded out Corvette Z06 that almost spun out when he was leaving the plaza. I imagine you've seen what happened in Charlotte - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZybirPJjl-g (there's a bit of language in it as a warning if your parents are around, lol).
