Yesterday ( Saturday ) while we were driving North on Roswell Road we actually caught a glimpse of a Porsche CGT. She was well ahead of us in heavy traffic and we were fast approaching a green traffic light. The CGT made that light and It now came down to us making that green. Luck was on our side and within minutes we managed to get into a position a few car lengths behind her at the Weiuca traffic light. The Porsche was sitting in the left hand turn lane. I Immediately decided to pull into a empty bank parking lot on the corner of that intersection. The now stopped Porsche was waiting to make his turn. I jumped out of my car and waited. A few seconds later the car came into view and I did manage a few pics. Fortunately this was not the end to this story. a few minutes later while driving North on Lake Forest Drive I was able to pull along side the driver at a stop sign. I asked the driver if I could take some photos? With a huge smile and most importantly with a huge yes we immediately parked and I took a few more shots. A huge thanks goes out to that Gentlemen for allowing me that privilege.

Incredible spot! Just an amazing legendary icon! It looks stunning! Congrats on this awesome catch. Also I had a great spotting day this afternoon and found 6 American icon muscle cars including bad$$ dope blue C6 Z06, a white C8 Convertible, and this black stang/SS combo. My 2nd C8 in like 5 days. Thanks

Thank you very much, Remon, Thom, PcArzenal, Lange, and Moritz for taking the time to comment.
Hi Thom. The hard part was telling her that I was taking the shots, Lol. Please give our best to Yvonne. I do hope that she likes the new house? A huge congrats on your new purchase. @thomcarspotter

Whoa! This is incredible. What a stunning find West! The Carrera GT is one of the best cars ever in my opinion. Love the story and the fact that the driver made the stop for you. This is why we do carspotting!

Hi Lucas. Honestly, this is why I have been spotting and posting up my shots for the last 20 years. There is nothing that compares to the adrenaline rush of a spontaneous catch in the wild. Thanks for always taking the time to comment, buddy. @LucasH

This is already your Carrera GT #9, unbelievable. In more than 8 years of spotting I managed to see one drive by, unable to take pictures of it. I am not particularly a big fan of it, though, but it is certainly a car that stands on top of the automobile food chain. The silver Acura is yours, by the way?
Horse-Power - 28-03-2022 om 12:57
Thanks for taking the time to comment, Joos. The car is not mine, however she does allow me to chauffeur her around on the weekends. She most definitely has been a great spotting partner over time, so it's the least that I can do. Shopping and fine dinning are include, Lol.

You've spotted 9 Carrera GTs and I've never even seen one on road! Need to find one
