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

[nealcropper]

I just made a terrible translating mistake, that's what it means In Polish and Italian, words (correspondingly) "sympatia" and "simpatia" mean "a poaitive, friendly attitude towards someone". I made one hell of a direct translation there "False friends" got their name for a reason...

Ahhhhhh ok.

 

[Madertus]

How rude of me, I forgot to thank you for kind words on my little story c: Also, I bought the first issue of the magazine because it was the only one I was missing. Haha, I still remember getting the second one 5 years ago; bought it since I had nothing to read during vacation. Never thought I'd meet the man responsible for the best car mag in years. To top it off, Cinque is by far one of the kindest and down to earth guys I've ever met.

No problem! I wished I had your kind of enthusiasm for anything. It seems as you get older you lose your lust for life, or at least I have.

I need to asses my life.

It's amazing where a quick conversation on a forum can lean you.

Wow, just... wow. Daring colour combo on the LP640, not sure what to think of that
And all those Aventadors

Originality done the right way!

And yeah, all dem Aventadors... I'd kill to see even one of those accelerating from street lights, but four... I doubt I'll even see four LP700s in my entire life

5...look carefully, one of the orange ones has yellow brake calipers and one has black ones

I saw those two orange Ventas blasting past me at around 7am. That white one came past later, but that yellow one must have stayed in the car park. Would have liked to have seen that! Good shots, IcyJ!

Here goes one of them when it was down my way...

Well happy with that shot!

niiice...but you had a car man, use it! LOL

 

[Rue]

I mean I would have liked to have seen on the move out in the hills. I'm not really keen on the car parking areas at either end of Bride's Pool Road for photography (don't get me wrong, I think your shots are great), but I much prefer trying to capture them in motion and clambering around in odd places. I'm odd like that...

._. Oh.

5... I'd get a brain cancer.

Awesome photo's Rue 👍

 

[HumanDestroyah]

Hit the San Diego Autoshow yesterday. I kicked it off by driving the CTS-V Coupe which was fun and sounded great. Not so much a car for big guys though. I didn't take too many pictures since my cellphone was on life support. So here's my favorite of the show, apologies now for the quality.

***Bonus Interior Shot***

 

[Rue]

IcyJ, you got any more pics of that stonking red BMW 635CSi?

 

[jeffgoddin]

Good eye, almost said something too. Love the old 6 series, have only spotted a few of them, one an M!

 

[Cano]

Thirded for pics of the 6!!

Hee Poolhaas, where is your Audi?

 

[avens]

#1434 sounds like a good day. "Yeah I was walking home and stopped by the ring. Saw 2 sls' amg and a 370z almost crashes".

 

[Cano]

Haha, the Kadett is awesome.

 

[poolhaas]

Hee Poolhaas, where is your Audi?

Didn't think it would fit the thread ()


@ Avens: the 370Z was drifting, pretty good actually.

 

[MedigoFlame]

Awesome posts on this page! Stopped by the BMW dealership with my friend while he dropped off his parent's X5 for maintenance and pick up a loaner. Spotted this in the back.

Although I think it's an M3 sedan, something seems odd about it... Maybe it's just the wheels.

 

[aadil717]

Yeah, the wheels don't look pretty - must be her/his winter set.
