The Florida plate must be off of an American military car... We still have bases in the UK, right?
 
I saw the jaguar XF prototype covered in black sheets. Sorry no pictures, it was in Gaydon.
I will take pics if i se it again, I didnt have my camera.
 
I'm fairly sure I saw a 99-04 Mustang GT today. Nothing especially rare, I've seen a few now.

Except this one was still wearing Florida Plates (Instantly recognised the "Orange" plate from when I was holiday.). :odd:

No pic, but no doubt a chance to get one another time.

Crazy - do get a pic if you have a chance, I'd love to check that one out (not that I'm doubting you - just that it's an absolutely crazy spot!).

Today's spots:

Lots of these around.

S6! Sorry for the shaky photo, I was headed somewhere and late.

Local plates on this Viper parked in a loading zone in front of a construction site. Sort of odd. Never seen this one before - good shape, as they usually are. Still looking for the new coupe.
 
Have you seen an RS4 yet Doug? And I'm sorry if you have and posted it in here I don't follow this thread as much as I should.
 
I forgot to post this one. Saw it during my visit to Holland a couple of weeks ago. I'm not sure how real or not it is, since it had a badge that said Alpina on the front, but a badge that said 335i in the back. Had Alpina rims too... anyone want to shed a bit more light on it?

Seen many - including two today, although I skipped pictures as they've gotten common. My first RS4 spot was a year ago next month. Here are some past RS4 snaps:

Have a few more too but you get the idea.
 



Its one of the display cars of gumball rally...but heck...i was walking back home when i saw it up on the bridge..so it counts:dopey:



this as well..but i have no idea
 
Yeah I do, I love those cars soo much. Only seen one in white.

Coincidental - I've never seen one in white! I love them too - fantastic cars. I keep confusing RS4s for S4s though - the S4 has similar modifications. One thing I love about both products is that they're not that dressed-up from the models on which they're based, which cannot be said for many 'tuned' cars, like Volvo's R line or Chrysler's SRT models.
 
One of my favorite cars of all time, and I saw it today! I'm actually pretty happy about spotting this since I don't normally get to see these.

Datsun (yes it said Datsun) 280Z

Yeah very subtle styling but still looking very nice. Nicer then cars that are dressed up... like you said for example the SRT models.

Don't get me wrong, I love the SRT Chryslers - but there's something to be said for subtlety like Audi does it.
 
Yeah I know, my father owns an SRT-4 and I like it very much. When I do get my license and get a job and actually have some money I plan on buying it from him when he's ready to let it go.

I saw one today - they're so quick - their styling is a little over the top for me, but it least it has (a LOT of) go to back up the show. I wish they were more common.

Except for the Front wheel drive part but I guess Chrysler couldn't do much about it. From what I can see when someone drives it it's certainly a handful in the corners while accelerating.

Come to the Detroit area, there are like mice...they are everywhere and they annoy the living hell out of the general public.
 
Well when you are laying in bed at midnight and hear BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR pssst BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR (yes I live on a main road) they irk me. Also about 90% of the SRT-4 owners I've met are complete tools they think they are awesome because they drive a Neon with a turbo in them. I actually had one guy try and race me and then called me a p***** when I refused because we all know how uber fast a Blazer is and I was just being scared and not street racing him.

Hang on a second. You "wish they were more common"? Woah. I personally know five people who own Neon SRT-4s. One of those has about 350 hp (and an electronic exhaust cutoff :lol:) and two have about 280 hp. It's become a joke with the people at the meets I attend. We've had a group of 9 SRT-4s before. I distinctly remember there being 3 Hondas there. There were only about 40 cars in total.

:lol: Well they're relatively cheap - you've got to expect that. I agree - the owners aren't always the best - but I respect the car so much, front drive and all. It's just such a damn good value, and it's so quick.

Hang on a second. You "wish they were more common"? Woah.

I see one every week maybe - usually less frequently. I saw one today, but prior to that it's been several weeks. Maybe it's a Denver thing, but they're nowhere. Which is funny because I used to make fun of GTP for having so many SRT-4 owners.
 
Oh I agree they are fast as hell, although they aren't nearly as good in the corners as I thought they would be, and they are very cheap. The ACR is decent though.
