Before I get chewed out on this, I showed my dad the hot rods. He said a Plymouth like this one:

And a 57 or a 58 bel-air.

Now they are in rough shape, so it's hard to tell, but you have to admit, the shapes are similar.
 
I know nobody cares about no pic sights, but after I picked my car up from the shop, a saw a blue Lexus LFA. The guy driving it looked really familiar. I think it was a boxer or retired NFL player, but couldn't figure it out.

I also saw 2 Continental GT's on the street but then again I saw 3 more at the shop so I didn't take a pic :lol:

I care about them 👍. But pics are better :lol:.
 
I found a video that has some info on that Batmobile I saw a few weeks ago. The afterburner is functional (although not hooked up) and the .30 Browning machine guns do fire.



Some other cars I've seen and their owners in there too that you could probably care less about unless you're from around here. :P
 
He's likely telling the truth. Mario Williams bought a LFA when he was with the Texans & he's still seen in Houston during the off season.

Whoa, wait. Where did you see this?
Or did you post that from someone else's spot to prove I wasn't lying? :lol:

If they're cars like the LFA and bentleys we want pics. You'll get heat for not providing them.
I understand, but when you see 6 Bentley Continentals in 1 day you forget that you're not supposed to see them. I've actually seen 3 where I live in the past month (one was posted). I posted 2 of them in the Showroom thread.
As for the LFA; I had to use my GPS and didn't have enough time to go to the camera. But as my original post said, the dude driving looked very familiar. I didn't see the license plate and he was wearing sunglasses, but it may well have been the Texan's #1 pick back in 2006, as McLaren suggested.


edit- I will say, however, the guy looked lighter(skin color, not size) than Mario Williams and had a yellow tattoo on his arm(among others). Don't remember shape, but the sun was right on him...meh. I'm more concerned with who's driving it than the actual car :lol:

I posted it to back up your claim of seeing a blue LFA in Houston. That's the only one & it belongs/belonged to Mario Williams (athletic figure, usually seen in Houston during off season which is right now).
 
A nice spot today.
BMW M5 F10. Nice chrome color. :D

According to the "Dragtimes" and "UNLIM 500+" decals, this car is a participant of the Moscow drag racing series, Unlim 500+.

And a Mustang coupe today, too. Not a special version, but 'Stangs are rarity here.

You're either 3 feet taller than you were last week, or sitting on Danny's shoulders.

And I spy a Montego estate back there. :eek: :lol:
:lol: I was in a coach. I didn't notice the Montego, must be someone's old company car that they never gave back (this was at JLR in Gaydon).
 
Gunmetal wheels and chrome lights makes me think DBS too
It was definitely a DB9, unfortunately the photo is terrible. The chrome lights, bootlid spoiler, and gunmetal wheels are all features of the newer dB9s (the wheels being optional).

I know when the DBS stopped, the bits became options but colours, parts and picture made it look like a S. Never saw that green in the DB9 brochure, picture bit blurred though :)
