Do you have any shots of the Maybach? Anyway, let me know what else you see, and if you have time you should try to make it out to Oak Brook. ;)

Lamborarri, Thank you very much. Also I am still in the area and I have mainly seen things like E63 AMG's and BMW M5's due to the time of year. However yesterday I saw a 2016 Maybach which was a nice surprise!

I have to give an L/F to the best IL spot I've seen a shot of so far in 2016. Did you spot anything else while here?

And I'm not sure how I feel about the color, looks like a piss yellow in my eyes.

Ok thanks for cooperating, I'm not mad btw. And here's just 2 minutes worth of looking for your quotes:

"I was surprised to spot a Heritage Edition on an average Thursday afternoon because very few owners drive their fancy cars during the weekdays."

"The roadster I spotted had an interesting silver-green color."

"Honestly, I still can't believe I finally saw a Koenigsegg here in the U.S."

"...at least I saw the Agera R over at Beverly Hills on that unforgettable day!"

"I was so lucky to see it in Beverly Hills two weeks before Car Week!"

Sam, I do admit that I have been bragging several times and realize it has become a habit, but honestly it will not continue anymore plus I also realize nobody likes to see someone doing that. It's understandable you and other people have gotten annoyed for some time and I want to apologize for excessively bragging.

Great spot! I like the color, but I don't think photos do justice. I wasn't sure about the green though.



@King_AM: To me it sounds like ExoticSam is trying to say is that he feels like you're usually bragging in your comments and its bugging him. Or atleast thats what I got from it.

That's not entirely true ExoticSam and I do not care about showing off or topping off what others see. To be honest I enjoy sharing pictures and like to comment as well, but that doesn't mean I always comment on photos of cars that I've seen before. For example, there's plenty of cars that I have haven't spotted like the Lamborghini Countach, Jaguar XJ220, and McLaren F1 but still commented on those spots.

I also do NOT consider myself as someone who is superior to others just because I have a very high rank and have seen many exotics. It's my passion to find and take pictures pictures of exotics plus there's nothing wrong with that.

Sam, it is not my intention to show off but to simply share my pictures. That's all.

Ok, Ashoor, I've been wanting to say something for a while, and you only comment on shots of cars that you have seen. You ALWAYS comment that you have seen one the type of car or something even better, just to show off that you are in California and see lots of exotics and can top what other people see. It annoys me SO MUCH. Sorry, but it's true.

A very nice shade of puke yellow! XD The color of the top actually saves the aesthetics of the car.
