After 5 days in SoBe for WMC, saw every imaginable car other than...you guessed it!
An RS4!
I am not even counting M3s and C63s, those are being frawned upon by vallets at the Mondrian and Delano ;-o) But seriously, saw some wicked rides, including a SL65 Black Series (which I thought comes later in the yr), Alfa 8C Competizione (ditto), Carrera GT in Matte Black, Novitec Rosso F430 Scuderia, and of course a myriad of 'plane Jane' F430s, Murcis, Gallardos, Benteys, etc. But no RS4, sedan nor cab. Granted, it may not fit the non-all weather needs of the avg Miami resident, but still a bit surprised not to see at least a 'vert. So the RS4 def seemed more exclusive than the plethora of exotics on display.
Had my friend's B7 S4 Avant whip for the weekend, not bad at all. I think the V8 roar will be missed in the V6T B8 S4 (and the Avant all together for our shores)...

Yes, I was caught too often in the dilemma of which exotic models I rubber neck after - those made of steel or skin? WMC ends up bringing the best talent, hands down...

Big vinyl wrapping business down there in Aventura/Ft Lauderdale...surprised there weren't more matte black cars around sobe. The Conti GT is named the Beverly Hills Camaro, I wonder what the most common exotic is down there? Probably the same...conti GT...or the SL65AMGs, which I strain to call exotic. Nice find on the black edition though; only seen one of them out here in LA. It's the only version that looks good in its current skin imho.

Indeed, was Bentley-galore, most with chrome oversized rims which brought feelings of nausea... Probably the most seen 'exotic' was the Aston, generally Vantages ('verts mostly), and DB9s. But still a plethora of 430s, Gallardos, and GT Contis

Exotics in SoBe are a dime a dozen. Saw 23 bentleys in 4 days there once.....
I always wondered....what if you took a top-of-the line Honda Accord, debadged it, put a high-end grill and some nice wheels, whether or not it would draw attention. People wouldn't know what it was. Honestly, an Accord is a rarer site than a Bentley or Ferrari.
FWIW, I only saw one RS4 when I was there last year. My exotic car of choice is still an Aston Martin. That will always be a rare bird.

I was down there with mine. It was parked out in front of the Versace Mansion on Friday night, but they wouldnt let me keep it up there! Had them bring it back out front all day Saturday. As usual, many, many compliments!

The RS4 is worthy of being displayed there all night and day - you should have insisted on them not moving it at night! ;-o)
