Did You See Anything Good Today? [Read First Post]

[Danny]

Ha. No way does that do 90mph.

 

[Nightmage82]

ok enough bentleys please. they are neither beautiful, nor interesting, nor rare, not british. they are bland poseur cars.

here's one for you all, have a go at this:

 

[McLaren]

Beautiful? Opinion
Interesting? Opinion although they do hold the world's fastest production sedan last I checked.
Rare? Depends.
British? Um, they remain in Crewe, Cheshire, United Kingdom. Being owned by VAG doesn't make them any less British.

As for the Spyker, good shot, but I too have seen the car here as well.

In your opinion, right?

 

[BigdaddyGT]

Dammit, saw an F430 today but I didn't get to photograph it.

The Conti is as British as the Veyron is French, and by the same reasoning. Make of that what you will. It's intentionally vague.

I consider them British if they're being built in the United Kingdom, but that's how I view it. If the Veyron was produced in Italy like it's predecessor, I'd considered it Italian. Again, that's just how I view them.

A couple of people have defended the Bentley photos since this remark but actually I'm the first one to rally against them. However, I posted them on the grounds that it was, indeed, all I'd seen in the last couple of days.

Since the Continental GTC is still pretty new - it debuted about eight months ago - and is the most expensive of the three, I'll still photograph those from time to time. However, I no longer photograph the coupe and sedan for the reasons you gave. For the same reasons I have stopped photographing various other cars that more than a few people would consider exotic.

But because we're friends Doug has decided to shoot and post ITRs, any JDM vehicle he may run across, and pre-facelift NSXs. Only manual coupes.

He's also added the NSX Alex Zanardi Edition to his MUST GET PIC list.

 

[Rue]

This is apparantly a regular occurance in the area near my house. Why the hell haven't I been there before?!



I didn't take this video, but I'll be there as soon as I find out where it is to get something on this thread. Watch this space...

Chaser, that's not a SV. That looks more like a SE30. 👍

He's also added the NSX Alex Zanardi Edition to his MUST GET PIC list.

I mentioned how ACR Viper is my favorite Viper. Zanardi NSX is my favorite NSX. I'm starting to think my crush on BBS wheels may have something to do with this

2006 Audi A8L W12 - airbags never deployed... uh oh Doug.

Fine!

No! That list is reserved for the best - of which no NSX will ever be. I mean come on - that list includes Saleen S7, McLaren F1, Aston Vanquish, ... Dodge Viper coupe...

You never know the circumstances behind those - remember, airbags won't deploy if a vehicle is not turned on. That could've been easily hit while parked.

I'm just messin' around.

 

[1X83Z]

I'm just messin' around.

I know! But do you get my point? Every time I hear an 'airbags didn't deploy' I always wonder if that was the airbags' fault, or if the details aren't being completely revealed...

 

[ceiling_fan]

Since a lot of people submit photos from their phones an off-topic question: I have a RAZR and I'd like to know how I can send my photos to my email? Or however to my computer without using hardware.

I had this problem, and felt like a dumbass when someone told me how to do it. Instead of a phone number (or contact) when you send it to another phone, put your email address. I actually added my email address as a contact so I don't have to type it every time. Hope that made sense.

I don't know if this falls under the category "Did You See Anything Good Today?" But it's interesting nevertheless. An American in Belgium. With a Nissan Maxima 3.5L and Georgia plates




@ Danny: I did drive when I took this photo!

 

[Tommi]

Whilst i was on holiday in Devon for 6 days i saw these:
Aston Martin DB9 Volante

2X Aston Martin V8 Vantage
One had the reg no. V8 007 AM (which i thought was pretty cool)
15X New Jag XK's
5X New Jag XKR's
About 20 Porsche 911 Carrera S's & Carrera 4's
911 Turbo
911 GT2
Audi S4

Audi RS4 Saloon
Ferrari F430 Spider(he gave a cheeky little blip of the throttle to the 360 driver)
Ferrari 360 Spider (blipped the throttle at me - must have been the Ferrari hat)

Slow shutter speed or what?!
Ford mustang convertable(old)-looked great in orange and black!
Lamborghini Gallardo roadster & coupe
Mercedes SL55
3x Mercedes CLS55 AMG's
2x Mercedes CLS63 AMG's
3X Ford Focus RS's one was racing a Wolf Focus ST!

Buy a cable to connect it to your computer, mine cost me like $7 or something.

Plates on that Maxima are from Cobb County - just north of Atlanta - my girlfriend lives there and I go to college just two counties away. That's ridiculous - I wonder what the story behind it is. Thanks for the photo! 👍

Germany, obviously close to Belgium, has a high number of US bases. The town i grew up in in the UK had Menwith Hill close by - a lot of the guys there imported their own cars in from the States.

Saleen S7? You mean like the one the owner let me sit and shift gears in? I almost got stuck. Also, I should have chosen the F40 sitting right next to it...

No pictures, of course. But that's because it's just an S7, and that was about 2 years ago.

 

[YSSMAN]

You still haven't seen a Viper Coupe? I've seen several, although I've never been able to get my phone out quick enough. I mean, I know we're suckers for American cars here, but you see them every once in a while.

...I do wonder if I'll see an S7 next weekend for the Grand Rapids Dream Cruise...

The totals are...

12 Dodge Viper GTS (including 2 GTS-ACR)
12 Dodge Viper RT/10
12 Dodge Viper SRT-10 (including 1 Hennessey Venom 1000TT)
0 Dodge Viper SRT-10 Coupe

It's ridiculous.

I live in Denmark - We don't get cool cars... This'll have to do and I like it very much !..

 

[Brett]

Really pretty cool spot! 👍 I have seen one running around Norman in yellow and is right hand drive. I have yet to take a picture of it though.

 

[Tornado]

Spitfire!
