In a tale as epic as the Carrera GT itself, Doug DeMuro recounts his rise to car spotting royalty. It all began in Denver, Colorado, where a chance encounter with the Carrera GT sparked his passion. Armed with a digital camera, Doug set out to prove his sightings to disbelieving friends, kickstarting a hobby that would soon consume him. Denver's transformation into a hotbed of luxury dealerships only fueled his obsession, setting the stage for his future reign as the king of car spotting.
Venturing to Atlanta for college, Doug found himself amidst a perfect storm of automotive greatness. The mid-2000s saw a flurry of exotic releases, from Lamborghinis to Ferraris, igniting Doug's fervor for spotting these automotive gems. His feature in Automobile Magazine solidified his status in the car spotting community, leading to the creation of the popular website, Chasing Exotics. However, as life beckoned with a job and luxurious company cars, Doug's focus shifted, and the golden era of car spotting began to fade.
Despite the changing landscape with the advent of smartphones and global car spotting trends, Doug's passion for special cars remains undimmed. From chance encounters with Maseratis to unforgettable sightings in Monaco, his love for automotive treasures endures. While the days of being the undisputed king of car spotting may be behind him, Doug's enthusiasm for spotting unique rides continues to burn brightly, a testament to the enduring allure of the automotive world.
