Not sure what it is, but the tail lights are all wrong for the Alfa.

I know but the Alfa is in testing stages and would be wearing camo anyway.

The general shape looks like it or a Ferrari California...or a Maserati.

I think that it is a Mercedes SLR.

The high long crease under the window line, the strakes just aft of the front wheel and the tail lights fit. The headlights are tough to see in the camera vehicle's side mirror, but they are consistent at least with an SLR.

It certainly sounds like an SLR

Can anyone grab the frames of the rocket ship on wheels in question and post them as stills??

After pausing it in the mirror, its a late model Vette. Probably a Z06.

No its not, and no it wouldn't. My parents were in Italy a few weeks ago, and a friend of a friend has one. I've got pics of it.

Edit: In order to avoid the inevitable "Pics or it didn't happen", here's a pic. Sorry for the bad quality, my uncle or dad took it.

Buddy with the camera better pull over for gas soon. Going that fast with your fuel light on is a recipe for disaster.

Yeah its a Z06 Corvette, I froze it when it was on the side mirror and I see air vent in between the middle of the tip of the hood in between the headlights

I tried to slow this down when I first saw the video weeks ago - but couldn't get on the right frame.

c6 for sure.

Man - that guy was flying. He should be on a track... all it takes is for one person not to pay 100% attention, and to switch lanes and you have dead people.

I thought this was posted on Jalopnik recently. They did mention this was a Vette and on the Autobahn or some European road where "Slower Traffic Keep Right" was not merely just a suggestion.

Edit: Okay, here's the Jalopnik link
