I took a picture of this because I had no idea what it was. Thanks to @Wiegert I now know it’s a “Brenthon.” It’s a Kia with Brenthon badges, for people with luxury car tastes on economy car budgets.

So my neighbour restores old VWs (Beetles, Transporters, etc.) as he's retired and clearly loves it. And then tonight, he turned up with this:

I didn't get the chance to talk to him about it, but it looks to be a really good condition barn find! I'm going to have to see what the deal is. I mean, yes please!!!

The previous DYSAGT thread just asked for people to say what they'd seen. It led to some pretty outlandish claims, and, well, rather devalued the whole thing.

So, now, we have a new thread, and new rules:
  • Please, only list cars that are interesting in some way. We don't want to see anything run-of-the-mill listed. In the previous thread, people announced having seen a BMW 328i, or a Nissan 240SX. These sorts of cars are not interesting, unless there is something specific about the car itself that makes it unusual, like seeing a new model on/before launch day, or a particularly good custom job. Cars worth less than $20,000 US when new will struggle to qualify as "interesting".
  • Don't just state the name of the car. Give us a picture at least - even if it's a crap one from a camera phone. If you can't show us the car, how can we believe that you saw it? And don't just replicate an image from Supercars.net or the vendor's web site: we want to see THE car that you saw.
  • Give us some context. Don't just post up a pic of a car and say that you saw it. It's much more interesting if you give us some context. Where/when/what you were doing when the sighting took place, for example.
  • Dealerships and Manufacturer/Tuner sponsored car shows do not count. This means that a race meeting/track day/concourse show/owner's club meeting does count. However, everyday "traffic" sightings are more interesting.

Please feel free to use the Reputation system to display your approval or otherwise of someone's claim. And please try to resist the temptation to slow-chat.

In game:
Yeah, a nice green livery on a 458 Italia. I didn't, get a great look as I was not on my A game.
He got a nice view of a Found On Road Dead Rustang. I love Ford trucks but their cars have always sucked in game and in real life.
But yes, the earth tone green/tan Ferrari was a nice change.
Also saw a GT2 throwback black 787b. Make sure you get it!

Outside game: the last of the 13th Gen F-150 STX. Mine is gray, occasionally I see red or blue and those really pop.
Someone around here has an '80's Skyline, too. I see it near East Wharf at Lake Hefner sometimes.

Speaking of Maybach, I saw a Maybach SUV parked up across the street from a famous pub in St Kilda, called Hotel Esplanade Hotel. Light blue over pearl white. Thought it was some normal SUV until TB brought up the brand. I guess Mercedes want it to blend in, but goodness, it looked so basic.
