^That picture doesn't work, well for me it doesn't.

Also, I read in Car and Driver I think, and it had a map of gas prices around the world. Western Europe by far was the worst, and Venezuela was the best at (US) $00.06 per gallon! Also, an unrelated fact - Ghana still uses leaded fuel in their cars. It's also about the same price as over here.
 
I love my job.

Only downside to the LFA is price...

Spotted an Evo in its element today, only had phone handy since... you know... snow=no cars, right?


And then I spotten my first Mazdaspeed6... and I snap shots of anything Mazdaspeed


Looks like we're getting a white Christmas after all!
 
OMG, you saw an LFA. Major jealousy over here.

Not a great picture but pulled up just as I was going back in from break at work. Snapped this up quick.

Not sure if serious.

There's a 997 GT3 and a GT-R in the parking lot too.

It's serious. Major crisis if I saw an LFA. :drool:

What is it? Sorry I don't know my Audis, unless it's an R8 or TT.

I don't actually know. I am the same R8/TT/Thanks PD. Otherwise I'm not too good with audis. All I know is some Audis are expensive. Even if they do look the same.

Sounds right. Did you google the plate? :lol:

I googled the plate and it turns out its a A5 Sportback 2.0TDi (4/5 door version - whatever way you want to look at it).

And R1600Turbo; I'm so jealous right now - I've had an obsession with the LFA ever since it came out and not once, and I'm not sure EVER, I'll ever see one. There is only one Lexus LFA in the UK (that I know of) in Pearl Blue and its on the other end of the country.

That colour is perfect, that car is perfect (to me, haha). Seeing that car would pretty much make my year. :)

I thought those were illegal over here? Looks like someone has turned it into a car that's almost worthy of the Questionable Modifications thread. Anyways, great spots everyone! 👍
 
AFAIK the R33 is legal, but the R32 & R34 aren't. And yeah, I wasn't to crazy about the rims. My mother was more curious about driver being on the other side of the car. :)

Close to my girlfriend's home there's a car collector who's apparent passion is to let the cars rot:

This one I saw this morning:

The first pictures are dissturbingly awesome. You all know I'm fascinated by abandoned cars, but they are also saddening. But the '70 GTO!!! What the heck is that car doing over there? It seems to be fairly complete and well optioned too! Awesome car, I hereby officially ask for more pictures, including profile and rear, if you ever encounter it again 👍

I hate the LFA, but it is still one hell of a spot. It's supposed to be pretty rare in America, nah?

Ugh, you really really like to show your true self. You've gained the honor of being the first person I'll nominate to a GTP Darwin Award.
 
Um... I don't want to harsh on you buddy, but this is the DYSA Good T thread. Volts are everywhere nowadays in the US. If that was the first you've seen, or you really love electric cars or something, say so, and we may be able to sympathize with you... but just a dim pic of a volt, not too exciting.

Haha, call me stupid but that's actually the last thing that would come to my head when looking for a car :D

If I want to find out what car am I looking for, this is my answer ;) A few minutes of comparing pics and there we go!
 
We saw this guy doing his Christmas shopping at Tesco, he was driving round the car park and the noise was phenomenal. He stopped to let us cross in front of the car, the front end is sublime.

^ Jaguar F-Type's already out on the road!? I must be behind...but wow that looks great! :eek:

What's funny is with the way you said that, some people might take it that your job paid you enough to get a Lexus LFA. :lol: Nice spot!

Have to say that I'm the same when it comes to Mazdaspeed. Love the Mazdaspeed 6. Always enjoyable spotting the red one that's in my town. Maybe I'll get a picture someday. :)

I thought they weren't available until next year, but this one was registered on Dec 7th. I live quite close to the MIRA facility and work quite close to the Jag factory though so I'm used to seeing all sorts of stuff out and about, I just usually don't have time to photograph them!

Damn nice F-Type, needs to be produced in hardtop form though, would look so much nicer and pay more homage to the original E-Type.
