I've been on a Tesla/Maserati streak here in New York. I never see Lamborghinis (only seen a Gen1 Gallardo in my life, other than in auto shows) and Ferraris (Only seen about 6 or 7 of these in my life; I can recall a Ferrari F430 Scud, a Ferrari someoldthinginawalmartparkinglot, a 458 (x2), a 599, an F430 Spider, and a 360 Modena, 2 of which I have pics in this thread). Although, these spots are spread out between 6 years.

I rarely see ferraris or lamborghinis, although I do quite often see maseratis as I proved in this thread already (I posted a Quattroporte and a Gran Turismo, now I need to find a Gran Sport). If I choose to, I probably could flood the showroom thread with pictures of various Porsche 997 and 991 911s that I've saw from 2 trips to the dealerships alone and a few audi r8 pictures as well. Which reminds me, I might make another trip there again to see if they got anything new such as hopefully a 911 GT3 or 991 Turbo.

The funny thing is, I do sometimes have interesting sitings, but I don't post them. I just wish I could find more supercars, I should try finding a rich neighborhood I guess. Well, here's a few interesting car pics from my past:

BMW M3 e36

I've seen quite a lot of Audi A5s and S5s, German cars are popular where I live.

From yesterday and today:

An obligatory Audi, here an Audi S5 convertible.


Just because it`s an Alfa Romeo and a GT.


THIS really looks like a fun car. Never seen before. Maybe more suitable in California?
Quadix Xingjue Buggy 800 4x4 - yes, it`s a Chinese product. Available for about 9k Euro. Top speed: 90 km/h


 
I was in Okinawa for a few days before I went to Tokyo, where I wandered around Shinjuku and Shibuya for another few days.
Nice! 👍 I was living in Shinjuku but wandered everywhere in Tokyo.
For those of you in Tokyo. I'd suggest going to Azabu Juban, Ginza, or Omote Sando if you want high end stuff.

Shinjuku had some high end stuff too. For example that F50.

Finally found my camera. Turns out, it wasn't hiding...

These spots were both in my neighborhood, and both at the same house, actually.

Chevelle? With (assuming the emblem on the hood is correct) a 496.

Corvair?

Yes, 1971-72 Chevelle. And that would be a 396, not 496. And yes, a Corvair,

Also, that Delta Integrale in Japan :0
 
Let's see, in the wild over more than 2 years of spotting now... one black Gallardo, one orange Gallardo spyder, another with Strut body kit, another but 2nd gen and yellow, another spyder performante, one Murcielago, and a 400gt 2+2. That's 7 total.

And yeah, Lancia ftw!
 
I went to The Dorchester hotel on Park Lane in London today. The place people usually post Zondas and Agera R's. It's the middle of July and they had 3 BMW 5 series' parked out front :lol: Literally, that's it. My luck for car spotting in the past 2 or 3 years has become terrible. I turned up in the winter there once and posted a CC8S, as far as I can remember the only one ever posted in this thread.
 
help, Monte?


hey, the black pinstriping is in focus!:lol: Malibu?




dammit, I hate Jags, but these are beautiful. I love the hood ornament's shadow.


my 2nd 458!


this fellow was parked at work


hasn't had it on the strip since swapping to a big block. notice the helmet!


this one's for Cano. You know what this is.

For shame, don't make that mistake again!

Edit: one other story no pic spot from tonight... Coxster S, with the hood popped going down the freeway. Noticed it looked odd coming up behind me (I went a little slow because I wanted to ID the Porsche.) Alongside I saw clearly, hood popped up. After thought, should have honked and made a hand sign that indicated hood popped. Hope nothing happened to him.

An American car, on German plates, found in Cornwall...

I'm amazed at how well the late-model Lincoln wheels work on this thing :0

1967 GTO, 1969 Chevelle (:

HOLY HELL. The 55 is awesome, insanely mean, I love the small-hole bare-magnesium Kidney Beans with white-walls at front, very period-correct. And the fact that he isn't using colored AN fittings for his carbs so the period look doesn't get broken. Tunnel ram, too. Cool as heck.

However, the Hurst/Olds is just another level of car. Holy 🤬 that thing is amazing. One of the better, most memorable spots of the thread for me. What's the story, Goddin?
 
That isn't just any Astra. It's a styled-by-Bertone Astra.
Oh my, that changes everything.
Never liked this model of Astra, and because of it's price they're all over the place driven by youngsters with the most awful body kits slapped on their cars.
