Car Spotting Scavenger Hunt Redux. Round Nine on now!!!!!!

[ildd]

Ok, serious question. What if you find a car that is horribly modded, purple, and has a GT badge? Like, it's the most hideous thing you've ever seen. Can that count for 3 categories?
jk. Here's my purple car (Toyota Camry) and British car. Mini Coopers are too mainstream.

In addition- here is my "GT" car and "tasteless" car.

The world famous Versa. And it's purple.
So I just need to find an Evoque and a really fast car...

 

[xXKingJoshXx]

Maybe it's just my computer or eyes but the car next to the Versa looks more like it is purple than the Versa.

 

[playnthru]

Yeah that GS(T) Eclipse whatever looks purple to me?

I don't know, I'm slightly colorblind when it comes to purple if you think the Eclipse Is purple then I guess it is

 

[Beeblebrox237]

The Versa looks blue to me, but that Eclipse is definitely purple.

I want to apologise to all the colourblind people here, I didn't think of the fact it would be difficult for some of you to differentiate a dark blue from a dark purple. Sorry about that.

It's no problem, lol. At least for me, differentiating purple from navy is hard. But that's the only 2 colors (and everything in between) I have problems with.

It's not easy, and it's not helped by the fact that we're seeing it through our screens and a camera lens, which significantly changes how it looks.

 

[motortrend]

OK I found a car that is definitely purple, albeit a very dark purple and it didn't help that I spotted it at night, hopefully this is enough

The color name is dark currant, here it is in sunlight where you can see the purple better

Also I thought the questionable mod one and the evoque were going to be the easiest ones since where I live is full of Evoques and ricers are pretty common everywhere but I've had the hardest time with those. I'll go spotting tomorrow and see if I get one.

The GT badged car can't be that hard, I'll just have to keep that in mind tomorrow.

 

[disinfected]

So I could call this a GT badged car, yet, change it if I get something better?

This doesn't need to be changed. You don't get any bonus points for a different car that is called GT. Bonus points are only on the purple car.

 

[Rage Racer]

Let's try my luck. Old spots (over a month old) count?

1. Purple chrome Infiniti QX

2. Fastest car - GT-R.

3. Tasteless mods - this.

4. GT car - Audi R8 GT.

5. British car - AM DB9 Volante

6. Bonus car - easy.

 

[ildd]

@Rage Racer old spots don't count

 

[Rage Racer]

@ildd
how old? What's the limit?

 

[ildd]

@ildd
how old? What's the limit?

Anything since Monday.

 

[GranTurismo916]

@ildd
how old? What's the limit?

It has to be taken after the themes are given.

 

[Murcie_LP640]

If a top speed hasn't been disclosed but the car is similar to one that has, does it count?

 

[GranTurismo916]

I now have:

Fastest car - Cadillac CTS-V Sedan (198 mph)

Distasteful Car - Impreza (black hood, extra spoiler on the back)

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

Ironic that your distasteful car is a Subaru. That's a really bad pic if a cts.

 

[GranTurismo916]

Ironic that your distasteful car is a Subaru. That's a really bad pic if a cts.

Yeah, the pic is really bad. But I know it's a V because I've seen that car many times. 👍

 

[playnthru]

Isn't that a STi spoiler though? They made one similar that came off the roof.

 

[ildd]

If my Raptor pic didn't count last round, the CTS-V shouldn't count...

 

[playnthru]

It's a bit blurry, I can't really tell what it is honestly.

 

[GranTurismo916]

If my Raptor pic didn't count last round, the CTS-V shouldn't count...

Fine. But I know it's a V.

Oh well.

It still looks like a CTS to me.

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

Still think this won for distasteful car.

Nothing compared to the Versa

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

Um that's a Harley division f250 not my Hyundai.

 

[xXKingJoshXx]

I know I already have a purple car, but I got a better one today. I would've got a better pic but we were in a shady area and I don't know how potential drug dealers would react if white guys were taking pictures of them...

@Beeblebrox237 Just confirming, if a car has a top speed of 186mph but is electronically limited to 155mph (E39 M5, in my example) would the top speed be 155mph or 186mph?

--

So I have a purple car, GT car, British car, tasteless car, and whatever spot of mine from this week that is the fastest will be my fastest car. No Evoque yet, though.

 

[motortrend]

^ I asked that a few posts ago and was told that te limiter counts as the top speed.

Today I saw a Mustang GT which will be my GT car. I saw an evoque but it was going the other way. I have no idea why but I haven't seen something truly questionable, which would usually be great but not now. I'll see if I post them all up together tomorrow if I spot something else

 

[Murcie_LP640]

Still wondering about mine. Because I got a pic of a HSV GTS but they didn't disclose a manufacturer's top speed.

Theoretically if the aerodynamics aren't that different it should be about the same as the Camaro ZL1 as it weighs a little less than it and has the same engine and gearbox, but not my call.

 

[Rage Racer]

Okay, bonus car today out of my window:

Fastest car: BMW Alpina B7 E38 (over 280 km/h)

 

[Beeblebrox237]

It would be 155.

Difficult. 180 seems plausible for it, so I don't see why I can't let you have it.
