Second 959 spotted in the US!
The first time I saw it (photos 5-10), I was riding my bike around Marin County, and ended my carspotting ride with a quick check of Woodlands market. Low and behold, I saw the sweeping rear wing and biked as fast as I could to cross the intersection. It was perfectly timed, so | rode right in front of the car, and then stood at the corner as the driver smiled at me. I snapped some photos as he went around the corner heading back into Ross, and immediately hopped on my bike and sped as fast as I could to catch up with it. I was two cars behind it and probably gained about a hundred yards up on it. As I followed it into Ross, however, he didn't slow down (it's kind of hard to bike as fast as a car that's supposed to be fast) and I lost him around the corner by Ross commons. I considered riding up Lagunitas Drive and hoping he'd slow down but I gave up because I was both tired and had some photos already.
A few days later, I was notified that the 959 was hanging out in San Anselmo (photos 1-4), with the owner (who has been spotted eating dinner here before) at Valenti and Co, and came over to take some photos. Anyways, still cool to have been able to see this car in the wild twice in only a few days!

Thank you so much! I was hoping that first one would turn out well.

Epic capture for sure. She still looks amazing. Especially in that blue dress.

Mental! What a spot and what a story! These are the spots that make carspotting all worth the while! Amazing spot and pictures!

Thanks I totally agree. It was so fun even though I couldn't catch up on the bike -- chasing it was definitely the highlight of my day!
