A GT-R.

Also passed by an Evo VIII before I saw this, but didn't get a shot.

Often found parked next to our summer workplace in south Wales. Either this is one of the few that never ended up in London or managed to escape the capital:

Great post! As a fellow central American (not to be confused with Central American) spotter, I can really appreciate how much fun it must have been to be spotting in China! Land Wind 7, lol!! Nice Brabus find, and I'm not going to bother to look it up but probably nice find on the last mouthful, too!


Um, the cool car in the first photo is the boxy thing to the left, whatever that is. Unless you've never seen a BRZ before. And Roush. And not sure that is one, really.

Daimler SP250! 👍
Nice call!!

Not sure but they looked like they were from Brabus.

I appreciate the spotting moment here, on the highway, camera focusing on something on a parallel path, hard to get sharp like this, nice job!

Detroit spoils my spotting. I barely see anything on the west side.
I knew that was coming, lol! You spotted so much amazing stuff in Detroit this summer, man, wow! But back in Grandville... Like when I spent a few months in San Francisco, and now I'm back in Ohio...:(

Well, not all sadface.

Recent Spots​

Nice! I like the Landy, different. And the ASC, dang that's rare!

Now here's my recent stuff, not too much as I've been working a lot at inconvenient times for carspotting, and it's still too hot. Pretty soon there will be a few "last chance" weekends that should be pretty good for spotting, then the cold dark winter...

Nicest Supra I've ever seen, last Friday at a Golf Club (weird, a club is both a membership association and the thing you hit the ball with...)
toyota supra mk iv by Jeff Goddin, on Flickr

also at a golf club, lol, still haven't seen too many of these, I like the idea, and looks sharp, too. also last Friday, I had Friday and Saturday off and put about 400 miles on my Z just cruising around spotting. Not that I saw much, but I was driving, so it was good.

just like this photo, it's at a crossing of a little river that I waded through just creekdipping or fishing for smalleys regularly as a kid.

one of the older Chevies I can recall spotting, 1932, the Friday before last, cruising around country roads.

Unimog!! Unfortunately, it appears as though some art studio has gotten ahold of it...

first one of these I've seen, 1958 AMC Rambler

yeah, yeah, yeah, it's a cheap car in rough condition... but it's only the 2nd Celica All-Trac I've ever seen, and so it is AWESOME!!!!
all-trac rough but alive my 2nd spotting of a toyota celica all-trac! st185 by Jeff Goddin, on Flickr

And oh yes, there was this, on my lunch break last Tuesday. Yes I take the hour to cruise though a nearby fancy shopping center, golf course, and then back down Lake Road (along Lake Erie, on the west side of Cleveland where schools are good and home prices are high...) And then quickly scarf some Taco Bell before clocking back in. No, I usually don't find anything, but you never know. This was at the shopping center, my first S2 Esprit!

On. Fire. Wow! Also at a golf club, and I've seen this car once before at a gas station, and this photo does it much better justice.

here's my super clean 2002! Neither me nor my local spotting buddy have ever seen this car before, so very nice surprise!

Attention! Now, this is a good one. Willys Aero Ace. I had no idea Willys even made sedans, or, well, cars vs jeeps and wagons. Turns out they did, though not many, first one I've seen.

To go with your one owner Supra @jeffgoddin how about a 1985 with 8200 miles? Came into work the same day after the rain passed and I had to change the oil on it. Very nerve wracking trying not to spill anything! Completely immaculate

Kind of cheating, was sitting on the road where a cruise goes on every year getting something watching the cars going by, and caught my first new R8 that wasn't part of the cruise along with a few who were

Also @jeffgoddin to add to the Celicas.. Which by the way is one of the coolest spots in here in quite some time imo
