Did You See Anything Good Today? 'Event and Showroom Edition'

Did you find everything in the live arena a little quiet? Certainly made the Quattro seem a little boring, even with Stig at the wheel.

I'm not so sure, there were a fair few 9's and 10's there! (Pirelli blonde )

Yeah they didn't seem to really push too hard in the arena this year, they seemed to have spent most of their budget on Murray Walker and Jenson Button. 👎

No idea about the Ford GT, I only got photos of the front of it but it says something about it on the sign in the photo I posted.
How's this for more photos anyway?

Fiat, Evora, Morgan, Zonda :drool:

Such pleasant machinery.

zonderf · Feb 3, 2010

Is that Zonda purple? Either way, it's still awesome! What did you think of the LF-A in person, I'm trying to like it but having a hard time.

Dac_Xint · Feb 3, 2010

Those are some sweet cars, the Gumpert and Quattro really floats my boat

Brett · Feb 3, 2010

I really like the TVR. My semi-obsession with them may have more to do with TVRs not being readily available in the States. I love the aggressive styling and the extreme form following function of the brand.

Boffin · Feb 3, 2010

Sagari look awesome IRL. There's a gunmetal grey one here and sometimes I catch a glimpse of it.

However, I definatly wouldn't want to own one. Not with their terrible terrible (like old Alfas ^ 10) reliability issues. Give me a Wiessman (spelling?) anyday.

The Zonda was midnight blue.

I found the LFA suprisingly underwhelming, to the point that parking a white Supra in the same spot would have probably sparked more interest from me!

I can't put my finger on exactly what it was that I didn't like about it, maybe that as a static display it is fairly boring to look at in contrast to the other cars at the show. Oh, and the wood screws holding the spoiler on! :dopey:

I loved the Lexus when I saw it, but the stand was very poor. It appeared to just have been shoved onto the back of another stand with a few bits of info stuck onto the wall and nobody looking after it! It was very bizarre.

I quite liked the Abarth stand myself, the lovely ladies handed me a leaflet on the brand (as if I needed it!) while I was peering into the 500s.

What's the story on the F-150 Harley-Davidson Edition? Looks like it says "Nirvana" on the rocker panel, but I can't read the rest.

Moglet · Feb 3, 2010

It's the name of the company who's promotional vehicle it was; 'Petrolhead Nirvana'.

Vince_Fiero · Feb 4, 2010

Had to go into a special shop "Toys for Boys" CT-Cars in Howald Luxembourg, after a near accident today, to cool down.

Very cool: Maserati MC12 (looked at the things in the back; F599; Panamera, ?DB9?)

They have much more (did not take pictures), but not as special as the one above.

My issue with it is that for $400k I can have something that looks a whole lot better and has similar performance, like the Carrera GT. The LF-A is rather boring looking and most people wouldn't recognize it if they saw it driving down the street.

Cano · Feb 7, 2010

all those Rally cars, the Morgan with yellow wheels and the Hudson pickup are awesome. Noice stuff lately in here!!!

Rue · Feb 10, 2010

Awesome spots above! I love the Callaway Vettes. Moglet, all your shots are top-notch. It would take all day commenting on each amazing car, but I especially like the Audi Sport Quattro, LF-A and the Morgan is incredible!

A few mobile phone pictures from a used car dealer yesterday:

NISM0_SKYLINE · Feb 10, 2010

Is that the same dealership you've posted before? That place looks huge how many cars do they have? Amazing and awesome all at the same time.

I know that's at a dealer but holy ****! Pretty much every limited production Lamborghini since the Gallardo all in the same place. I also like the GT3 RS and Scud with the 16M stripe parked side by side.

Same same. The place isn't that big really. Just one floor of a multi-story car-park.

Nice pics, Vince. V12 Vantage looks hawt in white! Now, I have a feeling we're going to see some Mustangs round here

Vince_Fiero · Feb 19, 2010

Whoow

Rue, are you the real mentalist??

Came across some Ford Mustangs in the local shopping mall:

Up to the specialists to correctly classify them, they are models from 1965 up to 1972.
