I believe that's the Hybrid version, which has the silver bumpers and body cladding. The next generation lost the silver lower section but made available a lime green paint color.

Okay that makes sense. Figured it was a hybrid.

Here's some cars I saw on vacation in August.

1956 Pontiac.

1972-ish Ford LTD (foreground) and a Ford Falcon Convertible (background)

Various 60's and 70's Ford and Chevrolet trucks, a Ford Thunderbird SC and a 70's Corvette.

Checker Marathon.

Suzuki Samurai.

'48 Packard.

I'm suprised I saw two Packards that day.

Prior to going to band camp a few months ago, the last interesting car I saw was a Volkswagen Rabbit Cabrio.

Always looks weird to see big American trucks overseas... Also, that says "The Bahrain Mall." As in, there's only one mall in Bahrain?!?

There's around 4 or so malls just behind that "bahrain" mall building in that area. It's not my fault that someone went with a generic name...:P
American Trucks like F Series, Silverado, Sierra, Ram and Tundra (Tundra was never sold officially here but it's a common Grey Imports) are popular but mostly driven by bunch of 20-30 years old who thinks they're cool driving one of these. Unlike pickup trucks like Hilux which are used for labor work and so on.
 
Some cars I've seen recently, picture I had on my computer for a while, but forgot to upload due to school and also trying the last Forza Horizon game.

I was coming home from a car show and this guy was in front of me.

I've seen this green Mustang around town before and finally got a chance to get a picture of it.

I was waiting at a red light and this blue Roush Mustang was there.

Lastly, I was getting donuts this morning and this Mitsubishi Starion pulled in.

I love the Europa! And they wear the two-tone so well. Thanks for sharing your excitement at having seen one for the first time! But we do like photos here... next time you see a car that gets you excited see if you can get a photo to share with us!

And I think I've seen 3 maybe 4 F-Paces now, actually about the same number as Model X's I've seen. Far fewer than I'd expected to see by now of either. Haven't yet seen a Bentayga, though I'm sure there will be plenty around. Also of note, the Cleveland Maserati dealership had a new Maserati SUV parked out front for the first time yesterday. Like I kinda knew they were doing it, too, but not sure I've seen a photo or read about it yet. Thought we'd see the Granturismo replacement first...
 
The only one of the newer SUVs from those 4 I've seen is the Maserati and I only saw it once in a showroom. I didn't even get a proper picture of it yet. The other 3 haven't showed their face to me yet, though I bet I'll eventually run into a F-Pace as there's quite a few Jag drivers around here.

I would have, but I didn't have my phone to hand and it was passing me round a bend, so very little chance of a photo! Next time
 
Double Posts but...

First of all, i missed a Toyota Supra MK III which happened to be parked outside of some house's while me and my brother going to a local supermarket.

After i got out, poor image quality of a Ferrari California driving at a rather unexpected place to spot.

Speaking of Ferrari's, later as i went with my brother to a mall to buy something and so when we entered the parking lot, we were greeted by probably the first Ferrari 488 i ever spotted in my life!

After i left the mall and went to eat from a nearby McDonald's (because why not?), i spotted another Supra MK III that i sadly missed, this one however seems to be surprisingly stock (At least from the outside) so i pop'd out my camera hoping to spot something and between all those 4th-5th gen V6-V8 Mustangs and Civic's with Fart cans....

Ford Raptor

Lexus LX 570 Supercharger, Qatari Registered. Apparently only 200 ever made. This is the third time i ever spotted one of these and the first to spot locally (For the record, first two were spotted in Saudi Arabia and Kuwait).

Offtopic but i wish if my Samsung Galaxy J7 screen still works or at least the repair didn't have ridiculous prices (Samsung themselves suggested it will cost more than the phone itself...like What The... :odd::banghead:)
 
Today, I oddly enough spotted a few cars without trying.

A Dodge Challenger SRT-8 392 when I was at Best Buy searching for a printer ink cartridge. They didn't have the brand I use annoyingly enough.

A V8 Vantage at a Pamera Bread, it's been a while since I've seen an Aston Martin in the wild.

One of the F-150 Lightnings around my town and I saw it at Walmart.

This C3 Corvette was a few rows away from the Lightning truck.

and I'll end this post with a MGB Roadster that I saw when coming home.

@ToyGTone give me your address and I'll send you a camera that takes decent night shots if you promise to keep it in your pocket whenever you're out where you might see interesting cars! :lol:
