Today I saw two NSX's a black and red one. I saw a black GTR and an old Scirocco with some awesome looking wheels. I saw a hella flush Miata and a ratty primed one. It's like everyone in Knoxville thought it would be a good day to drive there toy's to work or something.

I've seen quite a few NSXs lately. They are on my track rat bucket list.

Man those cars get prettier every time I look at one.
Oh and I forgot to mention a very very clean looking Dodge Stealth R/T

Given the Scirocco and hella flush Miata content I almost thought you were in my parking lot at work.
Then I realized you said "in Knoxville"
Then I realized my wheels would never be described as cool looking either.

I saw a C6 Corvette at Harbor Freight, that was the highlight of my day.

Saw an NSX heading the opposite way on a trip to Philly Sunday. Girlfriend surprised me with a trip to the Simeon Foundation auto museum.

In reply to EvanB:
i got cut off in the rain by a C6 z06 on my way home from work, does that make me cool too? is it ok that i was hoping he'd hydroplane on his bald summer tires and slide into the SUV in front of me as he was dive bombing me across the solid white line from the off ramp?

That's totally ok, I would probably hope the same thing in that situation.

A phantom drophead coupe pulled up beside me on the 401 highway today. Dude driving looked like Christopher Plummer, with a long white scarf.

I spotted a Boxter Spider in the lot at Lowes a couple of weeks ago. I was just about to snap a pic of it when the owner walked towards it.

Has the NSX depreciated to less than $5K yet?

There's a guy driving a red Noble around my home town. saw it once a couple weeks ago and then once last week. very cool.
Please tell me the NSXs are still expensive. I don't have anywhere to park one, and I kind of still like being married.

No, and I doubt they ever will. It seems a good one sells for at least $20K and prices seemed to have bottomed out there.

This is probably the rarest car I've seen on my daily commute in 2011. Driving through Birmingham on woodward I get to see some odd cars - Morgan, Lotus, etc. But the exhaust note alone on this one made my day.

I picked up a load of stuff at Harbor Freight in my E36 M3. I filled up the trunk and backseat. Either I'm really, really cool or just plain sad.

I just took the Panamera turbo S to Value Village.

Wow, I haven't seen an LFA yet. There's an exotic car dealer nearby so I see lots of Astons and some Veyrons.

FTFY.
And totally jealous you saw an LFA in person. I would've quite literally drooled.

This is what i sometimes see two doors down from my townhome.
'Bastard also drives a GT-R every once-in-a-while. I suspect he's a car salesman or something and that he doesn't actually own them.
