at this gas station there was a white 991 GT3 as well... I parked, got out of my car, got my camera ready, and walked past the guy with the GT3, who thought he knew what I was doing, and took a picture of this instead

on the way back I checked to be sure, I've already photographed his GT3, I'd seen it parked and asked if it was the same one, it was... he was pretty confused for a minute....

Those Lincolns are very rare. Less than 3,000 made and when they were new they sold for as much as the Rolls-Royces of the day.

 

[Badasp5.0]

On the way to work this AM a very nice looking lowered 03 Cobra in Comp orange. Sorry for the bad picture. What was odd is it had New Jersey plates which is only 2,000 miles away.

[jeffgoddin]

it was blocked by cars waiting to be valet parked, and I circled around the block three times before I found a place park, but no way was I going to give up and drive away without a photo!

You did welllll that thihng has to be one of the rarest cars you'l ever witness in your spotting career. And certainly one of the coolest.

Also, I spot a convertible something land yatch at it's side. Whawazit?

EDIT: Another Lincoln, JFK-style. How come we don't have a pic of that one? Bad Goddin!

 

[jeffgoddin]

Cadillac of some sort, must admit I don't get excited by 1965-2005 or so Cadillacs... the new V's are cool, and the old Caddy's are epic, but in between, I just see too many of them being driven in poor condition, and that's invaded my perception of them...

Actually, I said to them as I was walking by to get my photos, "Nice Caddy, but I've never seen one of these!" And they didn't disagree.

Hi everyone, I'm glad I checked in, very happy to see this thread still going strong, hats off to you Cano, jeffgoddin, spotterjeff, and all the others who is keeping this alive with great content. I'm sorry I've been away for so long, long story short, the past year has been a roller-coaster for me in terms of work.

Anyway, I've picked a bunch of photos I've taken this year to show you guys. Enjoy!

It was at around this time my job went through some drastic changes, and I haven't had a whole lot of time to go out shooting. Then months went by before I picked up my camera again...

But once I did picked it up again, I feel my photography has changed a little, for the better.
Feel free to give me some feedback :-)

I went to Boston, Massachusetts today and saw these. I also saw a F-Type on the way home but I didn't get a chance to take a photo because it was so fast. Sounds amazing though.

That Golf GTI is actually a Mk.1, which was for some reason badged as the "Rabbit" in the US. I never understood why VW did that.

Don't usually double post, but this is something special. It's owned by a friend of mine, who traded in his previous Aventador to get the roadster.

 

[RandomCarGuy17]

When I went down to Tampa to see some relatives for Christmas, I saw a lot of great stuff, but I unfortunately couldn't get everything. In all, I got probably a 1/4 of every great machine I saw. This was due of course to seeing cars coming from the opposite direction on the highway for the most part and a couple of cars caught me off guard and I didn't have enough time to react.

Anyway, here's cars I did capture during my trip.

1st, a C5 Corvette Z06 that was on a car carrier thing.

I saw my 2nd 2015 Mustang down in Tampa. Though, I captured it from the back seat of my parent's car, so I had to crop. Sorry for the photobombing GPS.

Alright, I'll tell you guys something. For a while, I knew that my Uncle that lives here owned a Chevrolet Corvette, but I never actually knew what year or generation. I finally found out. It's a 1969 C3 427 Stingray, which is one of my favorite vettes. So, this was a great.

I was staying at a Hilton hotel and I this Ram 2500 Power Wagon was there. So yeah, this was a first.

Yes, I finally saw the 2015 Mustang GT 5.0! I actually ran into a few 2015 Mustangs down here, but I could only get 2 of them. Once again, I had to crop the picture.

One evening, my family and I went out to eat at a Pizza joint and I saw this old Dodge behind a fence.

Alright, my last wild spot. I saw this Mercedes-Benz CL63 AMG behind a garage that was near a Dunkin Donus on my way back home from my visit.

EDIT: Oh my lord, I can't believe all of the spots people were posting on this page alone. Great spotting everyone!
