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

[Wiegert]

@jeffgoddin First time I've seen one, that's for sure. I assumed non of those made it to the UK.

Interestingly enough, the same XT was featured in a PistonHeads article two years ago. Less than 5 in the entire country according to that, which is still more than I thought.

This is what I saw in the six months:

Saw this G65 AMG on my way to school

SRT 300

645i it wasn't abandoned, But it was for sale.

Dodge Ram Rumble Bee

And if you look closely you'll see a F12 Berlinetta

And a vey rare CK200

GT-R it's modified too ! (~800WHP)

And I can't believe that I saw (And missed the chance to shoot) a brand new McLaren P1 that just came out of the dealer

 

[poolhaas]

Sweet looking GT-R @el fayce

There's a few in here.

Sweet looking GT-R @el fayce

Thanks mate !

And I almost forgot about this Fisker Karma

 

[WrxScooby]

Nothing to crazy just a interesting pair and a friends shop.

Bunch of stuff from my trip to Florida. I should have a few on my parent's camera that I got when my phone died from overuse of the camera.

Carrera and a Q7:

Rolls Royce in fairly awful condition, really. The back end isn't so bad but the front bumper is all kinds of rusty:

A really ncie looking Hyundai Genesis:

S4 Avant:

This neat buggy thing:

Whatever this cool thing is:

I saw it again later that night, anyone know what it is?

Another one I'm not sure about:

Not sure about this, either:

And now the Audi family:

S8

Truck full 'o A7s:

(The next day there was an S6 parked where the Kia Soul is now, but I can't find the picture)

S5:

QS5:

AMG G Series:

I guess this technically counts, it's a street legal bar that uses bar goers as an engine and beer as fuel:

(I had a video but I guess I accidentally deleted it along with the S6)

Old Ford van:

Old Ford pickup:

Really clean Impala:

GTO:

2014 CTS in a poorly timed photo while on a tour train:

Model A:

And my favorite of the bunch, a numbers matching '62 Corvette C1:

Which was actually parked there for a raffle, it was $20 for 1 ticket, or $100 for 20. As tempting as it was, I didn't enter.

And not a car, but definitely still good and a mode of transport:

En route to home after leaving Florida I saw surprisingly little, but still a few interesting things:

BMW M6:

Lincoln MKZ

After making it home:

Old Chevy pickup:

A thing that I'm drawing a blank on the actual name of:

 

[Wiegert]

Another one I'm not sure about:

Not sure about this, either:

A thing that I'm drawing a blank on the actual name of:

MG Midget (not sure what type), MGB GT and Dodge Dart GT Sport ('68?).

No idea what that other pre-war sports car is. Could even be some sort of kit creation or replica, but it's a neat little thing.

 

[xXKingJoshXx]

Your last car is a Dodge Dart GT Sport. Awesome spot along with all the others!

 

[Minty]

Thanks for the IDs.

And I have no idea how I didn't know that was a Dart...I usually recognize them.

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

SLK 230 as I was coming home from the Detroit auto show haven't seen many of these.
Pics are up in the event thread.

 

[Doog]

Here's an awful picture of an R35- my potato doesn't like nighttime very much.

 

[RandomCarGuy17]

Is anyone up for seeing some old wild spots I took before I knew about this thread? Or should I just not bother showing them?

I don't see why not, always interested in seeing them.

 

[Rage Racer]

Tuned Evo VIII. Sounded nice

 

[RandomCarGuy17]

Alright.

Here's some old shots from before I knew about this thread's existance:

A late 90s C-Class Merc, I find it interesting just because how great the condition it's in. I don't see many older mercs that still look this clean. The owner sure has taken great care of it.

Dodge Charger R/T Daytona

BMW M3 Cabrio (e46)

Audi S4 Avant

Early 2000s Mini Cooper S

3rd Gen Subaru Impreza WRX (Pre-facelift)

 

[poolhaas]

Nice ones @RandomCarGuy17

Aston Martin V8

Maserati GranTurismo S

 

[Doog]

That picture of the Aston Martin is lush. 👍

 

[RandomCarGuy17]

Nice ones @RandomCarGuy17

Thank you, right back at you. That V8 Vantage especially is a great spot.

 

[Doog]

To make up for yesterday's potato-quality GT-R...

 

[jeffgoddin]

Minty, I also recognize an MG MGB GT in there. And nice spotting!

And that Aston! Parking lot for...? I love context (like knowing that XT was one of a handful in all of England, and a real wild spot that you turned around for, makes that spot 10x cooler)

80's 930 been sitting at a good local foreign car service place for about a week, looked nice tonight with the snow on the hood so I stopped and took a photo. Turns out, with cops watching me from straight across the street... eek! Who's that suspicious person? Luckily they stayed put when I pulled out.

 

[Sage Ages]

Tuned Evo IX. Sounded nice

Evo VIII

Evo IX was the fugly one.

Also, XXRs.

 

[Rage Racer]

Aww. Really, it's an VIII. Thanks for correcting me.

[Heldenzeit]

Mercedes 200CD. Don't see too many diesel coupes around here.

 

[Slash]

Nice ones @RandomCarGuy17

Aston Martin V8

For a split second I saw Mustang there.

 

[ilikewaffles11]

Couple decent spots today

First an SLS that drove by while at the Jaguar dealer.

Then this awesome WRB Impreza 2.5 RS I see pretty often, looked better from the road...

Went to promenades and was rather let down, only a Focus ST

And a Contour SVT

 

[Diego440]

Haven't been around here for a while, but here's some recent ones.

Jaguar

Chevy (Bel Air? Might be a repost)

Aston Martin DB7 Vantage... I spotted it last year in Chicago, but I only recently caught up with some old pics

Chevy Delivery Van

Fargo Truck

Chevy Impala

Dodge Charger

I'm sure it's a kit car, but still: Maserati

MG Somethingorother

 

[Zyla]

Not sure about this, either:

Volkswagen Type 3 Fastback. 👍
