Fancy cars

On Sunday, we were cruising home on the Garden State Parkway from the Jersey Shore when a Murciélago and an M5 caught up with us. Too bad the camera was in the trunk of our car.
The Lambo was a <span style="text-decoration: underline">bright</span>, slime green. The Beemer was a dull grey.

Other than obliterating the speed limit, they weren't really doing anything wrong; no crazy driving or cutting in and out or anything like that.
The passenger in the Lambo was using a video camera, so my guess is that they knew each other.
We paced them in the Accord for a while, until Mrs. Copilot got nervous, and then we let them go.

Later, heading north on Rt. 206, we saw a black Ferrari 360 coming the other way. Ten minutes later we saw a red Ferrari 360, also heading south. We were very near Gladstone, NJ so my guess is that the red one was from ~The Stable~ (they have one for sale right now).

Yesterday we saw an Exige near Hamilton, NJ, but no surprise since it was in front of ~This Place~
 
Boy - what a difference between your neck o' the woods, and northeast Connecticut!

I head out on the highway, and am surrounded by boring egg-shape vehicles, punctuated by the occasional 40 year old clunker, or 30 year old farm tractor pulling a hay wagon.

(But I love it anyway...)

Tom:

We have those too. Lots of "gentleman's farms" in the Gladstone area (it's our horse country.....Jackie O. Used to live in that area).

The US Equestrian Team is also nearby. Lots of tractors there.

As well as fancy-pant cars, we also see a lot of shiny King Ranch Duallys (seems like a preferred vehicle with the NJ horsey set).
 
Nial,

Almost sounds like the two cars I saw -
Lime Green Lamborghini & a Red Ferrari.
