Um, I actually got quite a bit of cars within the last few days, but was too busy to upload them.
So...

The first of the really bad pics I took. It's a Toyota Echo Hatchback, which I took a pic of, because this was never sold in the US. It's also a rebadged Gen I Toyota Yaris/Vitz and I never seen one of these in real life before.

You can barely see it, but the red car is a FC Mazda RX-7

Yet another bad camera shot, a 1960s Mercedes-Benz. It was rusty looking.

Mercedes-Benz SL AMG (don't know which one)

Chevrolet Corvette C6 Coupe (really awful shot)

Some cars I missed:
- Mid 70s Chevrolet El Camino; I can go hunt for it again though. It was blue and had white stripes on the tailgate & bed.
- An orange Lamborghini Murcielago Roadster, it looked fairly clean.
- A Red Dodge Viper SRT-10 convertible, probably a 2003 model
 
There were some pretty cool cars at my tech schools open house. Unfortunately I used a potatoe to take pictures of them, sorry.

MK3 Supra Turbo!

And a BRZ

Unfortunately, that's not an M3. Just a normal 3-series.
Yup, I see it now...dammit!

As for why some of my shots are poor quality, I was having a hard time taking pics of cars while on the move, my timing have been bad lately with a lot of my pics. It's also difficult to keep the camera in focus of the car when in a moving vehicle.

Especially when there's raindrops on the window! Makes me wish I had a fixed focus camera sometimes (set for like 50' to infinity.) Yeah, I feel your focus frustrations...
 
Looked on Wikipedia and saw that that gen Capri is related to the Mazda 323. The Capri had it pop up headlights up too :)

Strangers are epic! One let me rev the hell out of his Ferrari 458 today, went down to Alderley Edge, only stayed an hour but was surprised to see a few supercars in this freezing weather, pictures later.
 
Stood on a street corner for half an hour eating donuts and it turns out people do actually bring their cars out in this kind of weather... Soooo, check these out, I got to sit in the 458 and rev it which was lets say ultra funky! :D

California, very black and very alone around the back of the area. Yes the pictures are big and no I don't care about your bandwidth.

SLS Roadster, the hardtop models are everywhere so it was epic to see a change, not the weather to put the roof down though, freezing!

Not the best picture, these are all video screencaps so excuse the quality.

You don't see many of these around nowadays, 612.

And the 458 I revved to hell and back, the stripe is aftermarket and means nothing, its a trap! :lol:

Damn that's more supercars than I've ever seen in one day... and you say the weather was rotten. And you got to sit in and rev a 458. Where are you exactly? I need to plan my next holiday... I've still to see a 612, for example.
