Perhaps the other photographers can chime in but one doesn't need permission to shoot in a public space. The attention and having your picture snapped is part of the exotic ownership package. If exotic owners were as uptight as you -- all the ones I've met are the opposite: they're friendly, humble, and passionate as any car guy -- then all of the spotter's threads would be gone. Thankfully, that's not the case and there have been many instances of the owner giving compliments to the spotter in taking a well composed shot.
