Definitely not the prettiest Continental, but it is the biggest.

I'm good friends with the manager of the dealer, and he let me go out and start it. Being my first time starting a carbureted car, and being 32 degrees (Fahrenheit, 0 degrees Celsius) outside, I had some trouble getting it to start. He actually said I could drive it, but I didn't really want to, being 19.5 feet long, and all.

Dear lord, that's just gorgeous.
My absolute favorite American luxury coupe right there. (The Mark Series) Thank you.

Very, very old. Not sure if I have posted these before. They are from 2006.

It took me a while to get what that second pic was.

 

[ilikewaffles11]

Saw this ZL1 at a small Chevy dealer. Didn't expect it to be there.




Then went to a used exotics dealer i've posted stuff from before but went I when they were open for once.

944 Cabriolet, a bit overpriced.


Ford Countours SVT, don't see these well, ever.


Porsche 924 in really bad shape.


Porsche 944, don't think it's a turbo.


Porsche 928S.


BMW 6 Series, love this!


And finally, a Ferrari Testarossa! Which has been there forever but I never went when it was open so I never got to look at it.

BMW 6 Series, love this!

Wrong, in so many ways. I want to post it in the questionable mods thread...

An E24 is a beautiful thing, this looks like a bad, unfinished, plastic model kit of an E24...

.. good spot anyway though, there aren't that many 6's about these days.

What are those other cars next to it?

There's a Corvette next to it, there's a mirror behind them.

I don't really see what's wrong with the 6 Series. I don't like the wheels but that's about it.

I don't really see what's wrong with the 6 Series. I don't like the wheels but that's about it.

To be fair, it looks like it's just had a respray and the trim hasn't been bolted back on yet. It's missing the rubbing strips on the side (common for people who mod 6's to this), the bonnet badge is gone, it appears to have no windscreen and is missing the chrome and rubber strip around it, the water drainage channels are missing from around the doors/windows, trunk spoiler appears to be gone (pretty sure late models with plastic bumpers all had wings), and there are no stripes/vinyls/decals along the side, which is uncommon. And, somethings up with the door handles.

... aside from that, the wheels look rubbish (bet he calls 'em Alpina's!), the side skirts look rubbish too... I just hate it. The 6 is pretty much my all-time favourite car and I'm going to get stroppy whenever somebody doesn't keep 'em original (Got my eye on you Dennisch )

Porsche 924 in really bad shape.

Prety sure that is a 944, as that horrendous thing on the back wants us to believe. I guess it could be a 924 Turbo but given they are more scarce than the 944 that seems unlikely.

I'm not going to rape my car!

Last Friday, I went with my dad to the 2012 Manila Auto Salon. I took so many car shots (with my dad's iPhone).

*Yawn* I'm getting tired of this. Why not just check the rest via Flickr?

@jus1029

The editing on some of those pics make the cars look like models. Not that that's a bad thing, I think it looks cool!

@Icj J

On that last pic, do you know what the red car is to the right of the Murcielago?

It appears to be a Gallardo Supperleggera.

[xXKingJoshXx]

Oh ok, I see now. It looked like some sort of late 70s early 80s exotic-ish car.

 

[sems4arsenal]

some stunning cars here

@jus1029 is that the actual Tokyo drift RX-7 or a replica

 

[jus1029]

Those two are just replicas.

 

[sems4arsenal]

they look stunning though

Yeah I thought it was an M1 or something, deceptive!

 

[ilikewaffles11]

Went to the Porsche/Audi/Mercedes dealer.

Another pic of the beautiful 911 Carrera


Cayenne GTS, neat color but the 21' wheels kinda ruin it for me...


New Audi S7


The rest is cars in for work. Starting with a Mercedes 380SL.


Audi S4


Panamera 4S


My favorite, a beautiful Porsche 944S2!


I quite like how this picture came out.


Audi S5, lots of Audi 'S's there.


And lastly, a CLS55 AMG

 

[Tyger]

I quite like how this picture came out.

With a US-reg bumper you could sit down and eat your dinner off, but still a sweet car, and great spot

 

[Rue]

Love that modified Cappa at the auto show. I saw a similar one here a while back but couldn't get the camera out in time.

 

[WJHMH]

DFW FCA toy run.

 

[Tyger]

Great spots but hope you got more pics? Other than the main subjects and sundry Corvettes and recentish Ferraris, I spot a 328, another 328 or 308GTS, a series 1 NSX, a BMW 850i, two much older Bimmers (2002 and something else?), trying to figure out what the white car is but might be "just" a Maserati GT...

 

[Doog]

I'm normally not a Ferrari person but man, that color.

Screw the Ferrari, look what's next to it!
