Thumbs up Spotted These Pair of EXOTICS While Having Dinner...

About 10 min away from my house is "The" spot to eat, drink and hang here in Plano: The Shops Of Legacy
As I was about to valet, caught this Murci and rare White Saleen S7! Pic was taken on my phone while moving, but you get the idea.

There is also a electric blue S7 roaming around here as well. It's exhaust note has to be heard to be believed.

Nice encounter, they must must be loud. I drove past by gallardo and old school lambo in Rowland Hts. several times and they were loud. Imagine for those who are inside driving it, be popping their ear drums.

I don't think I've personally witnessed a S7 yet. Saw some nice late model Austin Martin (1 coupe and the other one a convertible) with LED running lights last night in Santa Monica.

The S7 makes the Murcielago look plain if that's even possible

We ate at Mi Cocinas last night/saturday. And yes... I am either eating or drinking here every week and there is ALWAYS at least 2 or 3 exotics. Porsches and Ferraris are guranteed! But as the weather improves Lambos, Astons, even McLaren SLR are representing.
I agree 110% that the wheels on the S7 are just dirty. They need to have a lip design. The car is extremely wide and very long indeed. In the entire Dallas area there are easily more exotics here in a 7 square mile here in Plano probaly than in the entire state.
There is this one Pearl Murci w/ deep lip wheels around here that is just nutz!

Neither have I. I used to live in Westchester and Exotic citings were pretty frequent, particularly in the summer, but never an S7. Here in MD, not so much.

that S7 reminds me of Bruce Almighty when he moved all the cars to the side and took off down the middle of the road. They should have replayed that scene a couple of times...woulda improved the movie's ratings.
