August 29, 2010 was my one-year anniversary on Car-Parazzi! Thanks for all the great photos and comments!

Was there a real model called the G600 produced? I saw what I thought was a G500, until I looked at the badges, which said G600 AMG and V12 Bi-Turbo. Thanks.

I came home after school today and my mom told me an envelope from Jaguar had come in the mail. I had been waiting for a brochure on the XJ. Instead, I found the brochure plus a letter from the General Manager of Jaguar Product Planning and a copy of Ian Callum's book Ian Callum Design Inspiration, personally signed by Ian Callum! I have had few moments in my life as surprising!

I got back from my vacation to Mears, Michigan last night. I didn't see any exotic cars while there, but I saw a few classics and some off-road vehicles on the Silver Lake Sand Dunes. My dad and I rented a Jeep Wrangler to drive on the dunes. After two failed attempts, we got to the top of a 350 foot dune. I put some of the pictures on my Flickr.

I'll be in Mears, Michigan until next Saturday. I'm not sure if there are any exotic cars there, but I'll try to get a shot of anything I see. I'll look for great exotic cars from you guys when I get back.

I got a strange new fish called a ropefish a few days ago. My tiretrack eel died about two weeks ago, so I wanted to get something close to an eel. The ropefish is about 11 inches and looks very much like a snake. It is also called the reedfish and snakefish. If I get a good picture of it, I'll put it on my Flickr.

I saw my first one today. I'll put some pictures on Flickr tonight. Are they becoming common in your area?

I've gotten some car photos from the street, dealers, and Cars & Coffee on Flickr now. www.flickr.com/photos/ferrari599fanaticphotos/

I've been working on uploading some of my pictures of things other than cars today. My page is www.flickr.com/photos/ferrari599fanaticphotos/. Although exotic cars are my true passion, I think most of my best shots aren't of cars because of the difficulty of coming across a decent background. These shots are all from the last few months because most of my pictures are still on my old computer.

What do you think about the styling on the 2011 XJs? I went to see one for the first time today at Tom Wood Jaguar, and I think the black C pillar looks better in person than in pictures. I don't think I would get it in a light color, but black looks great. The interiors are beautiful, too. One I saw had carbon fiber instead of wood, which looked very nice.

My family got a new iMac yesterday. We got Aperture, so my pictures should be better now that I have access to a real editing software. I also got a ride in a California yesterday, which means I've now ridden in two Ferraris.

My friend saw a Veyron in Carmel, Indiana and talked to the owner. Turns out he has another Veyron, a Saleen S7, a Zonda R, an Enzo, and a CCX in Florida.

Is there a way to post pictures in forums without using another website?

I recently got a great book titled "The Ferrari Phenomenon". It is written by Matt Stone and Luca del Monte and contains lots of little known information, including many things about Enzo Ferrari himself that I did not know prior to reading the book. I would recommend it to anyone who would call himself a Ferrari enthusiast.

My dad and I took or motorhome to Ohio for Memorial Day weekend. I saw lots of nice muscle cars and some street rods, but the exotics were at dealers. I saw a Velocity Yellow ZR1, a green Viper SRT-10 ACR, and a blue Viper SRT-10 Coupe. On Friday, I missed a GranCabrio by less than five mintutes! I got a text from my friend that it was just down the street, but it had left when I got there.
