Had the pleasure of watching the owner (self-driven, not chauffeured(!)) parallel park this beast.

Only in America are the street parking spaces large enough to easily fit a Rolls-Royce.

From Hawaii, of all places.
 
So hopefully I'm not being too off topic with this post.

I came accross some pretty cool vehicles today. A train transport loaded up with 20-ish Leopard 2A5 MBT's, as well as a couple of M113 and Piranha APC's. Sadly, it started moving shortly after I came up on the platform, so I couldn't line up a proper angle, nor did I have time to focus the camera properly.

Don't know where they were being taken, but not something you see every day in Denmark :D

Yeah, excuse my previous silly butt-hurt post...

Weather today was nice in the midwest, as Gotbeef knows. Still doing the 5 at a time thing on Flickr, so not everything from today, a bunch of classics, a pair of Vipers, and some more. Let's start here:
sick nissan 370z by Jeff Goddin, on Flickr

had some freeway fun, spotting the 370Z cruising up behind me, hung with him for a little while, then realized, hey, that's a 240SX, cool, now there's three of us! guy in the 240SX was going nuts, lol, 370Z did shift down into third and smoke the tires at 80mph for us, good times!

1st time this car's been seen by anybody in the area, yay! I love Cali's and the T's even better!

just before the circle he was weaving vigorously to warm up his tires, just after this he nailed it, interesting to watch the immediate change in behavior when the computers adjust modes, rear end shifted out noticeably

from yesterday, mind blowing combo given place, day/time, and weather. 50 degrees on an overcast Monday morning in a working class town. Mind you, at 7:30am same day less then 1000' from this spot on my way to work I was stunned (and so proven still amateur as a spotter for not getting a photo of it) by a GT-R.

what has everything? very cool RR there! I usually tone down my excitement for some of your spots which I figure are outside the British shop you have in town, but damn that's rare!

And, off work today, nice weather, decided to drive some roads I've never driven, waaaay outside of town. 50mph curvy and hilly country roads? Yes, please! Made a map of a few golf courses out that way, and it paid off.

@jeffgoddin ,That roadster is Sebring MX or another kit type car based on a Healey mk3000. Most are powered by small block V8's of American origin.



The Rolls was in the shop for major repair from December until a few weeks back. This was first time i've seen it in daylight.


what has everything?
Check the plate on the C7 posted above mine. Yeah, her!:P
 
So, drove some nice country roads I've never driven before yesterday, and out in the middle of nowhere I spot a little MR2 in a driveway. What the heck, I turn around and pull in. Wow glad I did! This guy may have a problem holding back (7 kids, too) but it was amazing to see his collection! Where to start... Oh, and any help with ID's would be appreciated.

Thanks! It was an amazing experience for me, glad to share!

Now, I've gone and done something silly... As I was only uploading to Flickr 5 photos at a time twice a day, I'd amassed a backlog of over 150 photos... I realized that I had exactly two of many of the models, and thought it would be fun to upload them all as a giant batch... nothing too special, but I hope you enjoy!

Would be welcome in this thread, considering how many tanks are posted there :D

Well, something I have is...

I could see more big boats in the garage that the blue srt6 is by so I asked if I could look at them but the guy said that I couldn't by law or something like that so I guess these are part of a private collection.
