0 Maserati M128 GT - Mount Horeb, WI

This one is rather close to me. Really, litteraly a couple of miles away. The pictures I have here are not taken by me, but hopefully later I will have some of this one, if I can find it, on here. Here we have a 2005 Maserati M128 GT that is for sale in Mt Horeb, WI. It is going for almost $40,000, which isn't to bad considering it is a Maserati. Sadly, though, the transmission is automatic. It only has 28,600 miles on it, a 4.2L V8 engine in it. She looks to be in fabulous shape for being in Wisconsin almost all its life. And according it this car's Carfax reports its had quite a journey. It was imported from Belgium and into New Jersey, then shipped to Illinois where it was then sold to someone in Wisconsin and that's where this thing has stayed. Pretty interesting.

0 Maserati Merak - Milwaukee, WI

Ah, the 1975 Maserati Merak. If you watch Top Gear, then you may remember an episode where Jeremy, Richard, and James have to all get a supercar for under £10,000 (which is about $15,000 USD) and Jeremy showed up in a Maserati Merak. Well, here in Wisconsin you can buy one at Reina International Auto for $36,995! Why, not around $15,000? Well im sure this one here  actually works, and wont blow up, like Jeremy's did... im sure there was a reason he was able to get it just under £10,000... Anyways, here is the one that is at Reina International Auto in Milwaukee, in a nice red colour.

0 Nissan GT-R Black Edition - Madison, WI

This one I don't, sadly, have a picture of it yet. It is at Zimbrick Nissan on the East side of Madison. They have it in there showroom and are very picky, I hear, about seeing it. One of my friends said they wouldn't even let him touch it. Though according to there website, it is a Black Edition. I am hoping soon that I can go snag a picture of it.

0 Mitsubishi Lancer - Black Earth, WI

I actually spotted this thing today, as of when I'm writing this. So, I'm going to school like normal, and I pull into the parking lot, and I was all like, "Is that a Lancer?!" And Bam! It was. Now, I'm no expert on Lancers, but I don't think that's an Lancer Evo X, even though the front sorta has that style. Which, that style. I like very much, that is why I like this car. Awesome front end. Though, throughout the day, I wasn't able to find out who's car it was. Sadly, it was probably someone who doesn't appreciate the car for what type of car it is. Oh well. It was pretty cool seeing it at school. Interesting note though, one of the staff members of our school actually owns a Mitsubishi Lancer Sportsback. The SUV thing that has the Evo X front end. So that's pretty cool... but I'd rather have the car...

0 Aston Martin V8/V12 Vantage - Cross Plains, WI

Now, this one, sadly, i do not have an actual picture of. Even though I've seen it more than once. I say V8/V12 Vantage is because I dont technically know. I could be a DB9 or something, but it looks more closely to resemble a Vantage. I have either seen it going the other direction just on the outsides of Cross Plains, or at the gas station, across the street from where I work, so I wasn't able to snap a picture then. And, I've heard other people's stories from around here as well, that they to have seen this Aston Martin around here. So, I'm thinking they live around the Cross Plains, WI area. Which is pretty cool, since I live around that area as well.

0 Nissan GT-R - Black Earth, WI

Now this one is a bit hard to see. The story behind this one goes like this, while walking down the street with my friend when suddenly he says, "Is that a GT-R?" I turn a quickly look, and was suddenly like, "Yes! It is!!" And then I sorta proceed by chasing it down the street a bit, and I pull out my phone to snap a quick picture, and all I got was this one picture. The GT-R is, however, visible if you zoom in quite close, and you can see the rear-end of a black car, in front of a bunch of motorcycles, that is the GT-R. I could't tell the licence plates fast enough, if it was a native Wisconsin car or not.

0 Lotus Exige - Madison, WI

Ah yes. The Lotus Exige. Again, my friend was the first to point it out. So we sorta chased it down to get closer and get a decent picture of it with my phone. Again, we spotted this car coming back from a visit to Five Guys Burgers and Fries. It was pretty neat, as I have never seen a Lotus in person before either. The car had normal Wisconsin license plates on it, and had a younger adult driving it. Interesting enough, we saw another Lotus Exige, not 10 minutes later, heading the opposite direction going into downtown. This one was yellow though. To bad I couldn't have gotten a shot of that one...

0 Audi R8 V10 Spyder - Madison, WI

Here we have it. Just driving down on University Ave one day to go to Five Guys Burgers and Fries. My friend first says, "Is that an R8?!" And at first I'm like, "Nah, It's just one of those Audi's that have that similar front end.." But then I looked again, and then suddenly I was like, "THAT'S AN R8!" It was something special, as the R8 is one of my most favourite cars. As with many people. Many people see R8s quite often, so It's nothing special for them, but living in Wisconsin, where most people think is a super car, is a muscle car, its pretty neat seeing an Audi R8 here, and in person. So it was pretty awesome. It did have Wisconsin licence plates on it, they were dealers plates though. And we did some looking on this car, and it belonged to Bergstrom. Just recently, I checked there website again, and it was no longer there... so, it has probably been sold. Wonder where?  Maybe we'll see it again. Who knows.

0 Tesla Roadster - Milwaukee, WI

So, I will start of my new blog thing I got going here with my first technical super-car spotting. I spotted this here, Tesla Roadster in Milwaukee, WI on right out front of the Discovery World Museum in the downtown area. At the time, I wasn't as big on cars as I am now. I just thought it was pretty neat, and decided to take some pictures of it. Now that I'm pretty big on cars, I was browsing through my photos and remembered I had taken this, and I'm glad I had. So here we have it, a Tesla Roadster in Milwaukee.
