Did You See Anything Good Today? [Read First Post]

[gt5fanatec]

I mean, compared to the Shelby GT500s usually considered cool in this thread.

I have to agree, but maybe for different reasons. Here in the States they're all to common to be considered a good spot.

That white porsche with the black stripe is a cayman R, I think. Overall, great wild spots.

 

[MedigoFlame]

Not entirely sure what this is... Spotted this two weeks ago but haven't put the pictures up. Not a good angle.


Willys?

 

[Tornado]

Yeah. It's a Jeepster.

Spitfire, and add a couple of MG's in your imagination for good measure, little British cars were out today for sure

dang slow camera again had me screaming "take the shot! take the shot!" had to wait for this... any ID?

I'll guess it's a model A sedan. To hard for me to tell though, purely a guess?

it's a Honda Accord. The ugliest one they've made IMO. That body style was produced between 1998-2002. I don't know if you already knew that and were just fooling around with the name. :lol

Pretty normal day for me, mostly stuff I see on a daily basis.

Found it hard to believe at first but you're right. All 500 sold out (duh )
Nice pictures.

You`re quite sensitive. Yeah, I was a bit fooling around. I guess I have to repost the Honda in another thread.

Thanks. 500 units only, many disappointed collectors worldwide.

Nissan GT-R:

The owner and his gal pal turned out to be having lunch at the same pizza place I frequent. I finished before them, started to get in my car, and did a double-take to see this parked beside mine. They came out as I was taking these shots. Turned out the guy bought it about 2 months ago and that, by his account, the car is far from stock. Various engine, turbo and exhaust mods have brought it to over 700 bhp and dropped the 0-60 to 2.5 seconds. The matte finish is a wrap over the factory paint job. This was the first GT-R I've seen in the flesh and the owner says it was only the second he'd seen. He says there's at least one other in this area. Having now seen one I can understand why they don't get the love from the masses the high-end Germans and Italians do -- the exterior is very much in keeping with Nissan's design language and can be mistaken by the casual or inattentive observer for a G35/37. But it's a fabulous car and had an engine note driving away that even a Merc or 'Vette would have trouble matching.

Pretty normal day for me, mostly normal stuff I see on a daily basis.

Fixed. Not a whole lot out of the norm there. Especially the old van.

Anyway, spotted on Saturday night at the car show:

 

[playnthru]

Sweet a converted goat I'm guessing. I've seen one here a few years back. A guy up in San Jose did them for a while.

Real deal...AWESOME!

 

[CodeRedR51]

Negative, real deal.

Nice Fluffy wheel

Thanks it's my moms haha.

I'm not being sensitive, just trying to be informative.

I apologise in advance and don't mean to sound like jerk, but most of those pics are a) terrible and b) not showing anything that really qualifies as 'good'. A BMW 320i? A Subaru Legacy? A picture of an empty parking space outside Pebbles? A Saab? A colourful flowerpot?

Let's try keep it to the "did you see anything good today" thread", not the "I saw some cars" today thread 👍.

I apologise in advance and don't mean to sound like jerk, but...Let's try keep it to the "did you see anything good today" thread", not the "I saw some cars" today thread 👍.

I agree, and not to pick on any one member, but the quality of the content is decreasing markedly in this thread. I know it doesn't rain Ferraris and Paganis in all places in the world, but the point of this thread is for photos of truly interesting cars, something that's rare, very new, unique, or possibly unusual. Or just really damn cool.

"Unusual" is going to have varying meanings for everyone; basically, if it's a vehicle you might only see once or twice a year, that would be considered rare. Also, some vehicles are unusual finds in some places, yet sold in the thousands elsewhere.

A Corvette driving around in Australia? Probably rare! Not so much in Bowling Green, Kentucky. An Espace sighting in Arkansas? That's unusual...but definitely less so in Europe.

Let's also try to get the car as the subject of the photo; try to fill the camera frame, and try to get a good portion of the vehicle in the shot. If you're using a cellphone camera, try to hold it steady.

Above all, quality trumps quantity; not every day features an interesting car for most people. While I don't think we have to make hard rules for this thread, see the first post in this thread for details of what's worth the trouble of posting.

Camaro SS

Ford Fairlane 500

Not really that good, but definitely rare: ARO 4x4, which is a Romanian car

If you're only expecting Paganis, Ferraris and such the thread will be dead in a matter of weeks.
You're right about some photos being way too unclear for the car to be seen, not going to argue with that.
As far as quality goes, sometimes I have a DSLR with me but I doubt many people here do so I'm not going to make any remarks if it comes from a cheap cellphone.

I think stanced cars qualify as a good spot, especially three in the same place.
