My buddy saw a Carrera GT two Fridays ago on 395 by the Hilton. I didn't believe him because there are only 7 in the world or something, but I saw pics on his phone. It was amazing.

More like 1,500. But it's an awesome car no doubt. I have seen two on the road in Reno, a silver one and a yellow one.

MattR 2005-10-17 08:22 AM

One of them belongs to Dr. Funk's boss IIRC, Mr. Berry.

JonnydaJibba 2005-10-17 09:38 AM

I was just throwing out the 7 thing. There aren't 1500 yet, but there will be.

So somebody in the Reno area owns those 2 then?

Saw Duckie at Meadowood Mall. What rims are those things?

Ezdno 2005-11-07 06:36 PM

I have seen the silver one here, I watched him drive into the gated community at ArrowCreek. Those guys have Toys for their toys.

JonnydaJibba 2005-11-23 07:11 AM

I saw spooln on North McCarran at Rock or something. I couldn't see the street name because I was busy staring at the front mount. Oh and I saw a Continantal GT on 395.

Saw a blue 06 Sti at REI in Reno tonight. He had a roof vent, ground effects and my girlfriend said the doors opened vertically. I was getting in to my truck as he pulled away and stalled it. :oops:

DARKSTI 2005-12-13 12:57 PM

Saw 2 CGM '06 STI's:
1 had a Lithia front plate still and no tint on Mount Rose highway at about 12:30.
The other had tint..it was on 395S at about 12:45
I know someone on here has a CGM, just dont know which one it was :D

sperry 2005-12-13 01:31 PM

Nick and I saw a blue '06 WRX on McCarran on the way to lunch. Car had no muffler and was being driven by an idiot.

MattR 2005-12-13 01:34 PM

I think I saw that person the other day too...

Mojo Troll 2005-12-13 11:52 PM

Hummm.....had a young kid drive like an idiot in a blue 06 last week to get on my ass. He was wearing a hood with the cool lean back going on. Also had a cell phone stuck up his ass. I mean ear. Don't the 06's come with a heater?

At any rate. After working 12 hrs. I was to tired to even bother laughing at'em.

DARKSTI 2005-12-15 03:08 PM

just saw a silver STI on I80 EB around 2:00

ShawnS 2005-12-16 12:53 PM

You haven't seen Matt's new Nissan Murcielago? It looks just like a Titan.

MattR 2005-12-16 03:28 PM

It's the "Murcielago of Trucks" bitches!

That's much better than the one whose owner works at the video store on Donner Pass Road in Truckee.

DARKSTI 2005-12-17 03:42 PM

I saw a Silver bugeye WRX on Mcarran around 3:25 today, they gave me a Peace sign,

Ezdno 2005-12-17 08:35 PM

I saw a black wrx bugeye with the plates ricerboy on moana and kietzke

M3n2c3 2005-12-17 08:37 PM

Hey JC, are you back in town? I'd swear I saw your RS driving around Carson, and when I drove by it this afternoon, the cover was off and it was parked the opposite direction.

Nope. My parents went and got a flat repaired and installed a new battery so that's probably why it's moved. I'll be back in a few days.

Ezdno 2005-12-18 04:05 PM

Ok I saw a nice lil blue wingless headed out of Sun Valley about 3:30pm, anyone we know?

JonnydaJibba 2005-12-19 07:49 AM

I didn't see as many Subies playin in the snow Sunday morning as I was hoping too... it was just FWDs getting stuck on the side of the road :lol:

doubleurx 2005-12-19 09:08 AM

My wife says she saw a blue STI going over the summit towards Reno yesterday - MikeSTI that you?

Yeah, we were out driving around, but likely we both had "I smell s*ht" looks on our faces, busy listening to the snap, crackle, and pop (not to mention diff. noise) that's been given to us after our repair.

Off to the shop & insurance agent we go!

Thanks for the body shop advice, too!

Nope. I had my wife take the pic as we drove by, as I couldn't bear to look any more.

That thing is garbage. It's all riced out. Poor GC is lost under that Fast and the Furious facade.

ShawnS 2005-12-20 12:02 AM

Say Matt on Summit Ridge.

Ezdno 2005-12-20 12:32 AM

Ok which of you was eating at Sushi Teri by Toys R us tonight? Silver WRx with rims, license plate Hentzen?

cody 2005-12-20 12:34 AM

That's Steve. He's not on here, he's on wrxfanatics.com with the screen name, "Hetzen". Nice kid.

cody 2005-12-20 10:02 PM

Oh, and those aren't aftermarket rims Dean...that's what the 05's come with. :)

Ezdno 2005-12-20 10:07 PM

Ok I really hadnt paid that much attention, I just knew they were a bit different than mine.

cody 2005-12-20 10:11 PM

They look pretty cool, I think.

Ezdno 2005-12-20 10:20 PM

I guess they dont look all that different when you see them with good lighting, I would like to find a set of 17's that look just like my stock 16's It was very dark where he parked by the Sushi place so they looked like aftermarket rims to me.
