Is that the facelifted California? Mother of God it's hideous! It was better pre-facelift.
Seriously? I never really liked the California myself, but the California T looks pretty good.

Oh and Bugatti :drool:

Edit, saw Kingjosh's reply without looking at the photo properly, you're right @Clark
 

Your Jag is an XKR as an 'XKR-R' doesn't exist (for that generation).

And by the looks of it your F430 is better than that, looks like a 430 Scuderia 16M Spider. 👍

Oh. Well maybe it's the color. I saw a white one and red one and person and they looked good.
 
Pretty sure that's a normal f430 spider. The 16M has duel exhaust that exit higher up in the bumper. That f430 has quad exhaust that exit near the bumpers corner.

Yeah you're right , it just has the rear black fascia like a 16M.

That's embarrassing, the tricky bugger driving the XKR had the badges on for an XKR-R, can't believe I missed that, thanks for pointing it out!
 
Won't be too long though. Last I was told by a dealer employee, sometime around Fall since it's not an entirely new model.
There's a few in Italy. Don't know if this is a car someone actually bought or not.
Not my photo.

Okay, here's what I've got.

69-70 Impala.

Ford being photobombed by a pole.

Wheels need to be black (Also, poles hate me). Different Ford, but near the first. Probably a club or something.

I think this is a Lincoln Continental.

I would like a bunch of these posts but I'm in hicktown stuck with less than 3g internet... so I'll like stuff when I get home.
 
okay, done editing now, the rest from this afternoon, two big highlights, FD and race 4th gen Civic!

kept the NASA Glenn Research Center in the shot, just because. And indulge my laziness, I worked twice as many hours this week as I have since I was a farmer two and a half years ago, and got two-thirds the sleep as well... Nova or Chevelle and year?

then I stumbled upon the Aventador, parked as a customer at the local Porsche dealership. I've driven past it over 1000 times, and never an interesting customer car before. He was in to get 991 Turbo...

I've been passing on taking photos of them for a while now... eventually you'll get used to them, they're everywhere. And still driven by old men...
Surprisingly, I'm not at that stage yet (despite living in an area full of corvettes). Once I actually see them every other day like the C5s and C6s I see all of the time though, I'll stop.


Speaking of which:

My 3rd C7 Stingray and it's a convertible at a Mcdonalds drive thru. :3

A nice and clean Pontiac G8

CTS-V and it's BLUE! I didn't even know they came in that color.

A very clean Foxbody LX and it reminds me of my father's own 5.0 LX.

Alright, I went to the old repair garage that I saw further downtown this time since there was noone there and I found quite a few abandoned cars behind the fence.

This older Chevrolet truck is a Suburban right?

Volkswagen Scirocco

and another old truck next to it.

This car though is the real reason why I stopped by here, I've seen a glimpse of this old car months back here thinking it would be something neat and I guess I was right. This Mercedes 300SEL is in surprisingly good condition.
