Today I finally saw a black Lamborghini Diablo! These things are super-rare in Australia, and it's possibly my greatest sighting ever. Other than that, I also saw a C5 Corvette Convertible (another rare car in Aus).

Well Ive been seeing a black Countach in my area. I have a feeling the who owns them owns both. What area are you in?
 
The 1st however, just looks like a car coming off an uncovered carrier. But I might be wrong.

He's a young kid in Russia that finally found the right CGT in New York. He got a pretty good deal on it so he got it shipped over and it ended up being delivered looking like that, a month late as well. He took it home in that state and a few hours later it looks like it was before it was shipped out.

In a month, it went from this:

He's done some pretty questionable things and has a weird sense to him, but he's fond of trackdays, so I'm sure this thing will get its share of flogging once Moscow thaws in the Spring.
 
Just came back from a day in Macau. Throroughly underwhelming to be honest. Anyway...

- Toyota WiLL Cypha
- Bright orange Honda Mugen Fit
- '98 Toyota Origin (Apparantly built to mark 1,000,000 Toyotas built)
- BMW 750iL with big wheels and a questionnable sticker addition

I live on the Peninsula; the Diablo being sighted on Frankston-Flinders rd and subsequently turning into Frankston hospital. 👍
Perhaps he's a neurosurgeon...

I have to make the obligatory "If it's in Frankston it's stolen" comment.

That Toyota WiLL is outrageously odd and awesome at the same time...

141% Agreed.

Ha, I have to agree with you there; The general appearance of Frankston and it's crime rate is continually worsening. ('BLKLAM' was the numberplate by the way).
 
Correct me if I'm wrong, but the WiLL is the same as the Toyota bB/Scion xB, right?

Some are, but there are many Wills that aren't shared outside of Japan.
They are just Toyota chassis though, with different styling.

As far as I know, the WiLL VS is the most popular. And that's just a Corolla in disguise. It was created so that people who are under the age of 25 will be interested in buying a Corolla. Tricking them into buying one, if you WiLL.
 
The ist was the one that I was thinking of that is also a Scion, but that was badged as a Toyota not a WiLL :ouch:. There are only three WiLLs and none are shared with the Scion. The Sypha and the Vi are Vitz based and Chris is bang on with the VS (Darth Vadar's helmet) being based on the Corolla.
 
I saw a few WiLL Cphas today. I also saw an asolutely ridiculous amount of Ferraris. I haven't checked my camera but I'm thinking it was around 20 different Ferraris including no fewer than three 599 GTB's in Rosso Corsa. Must be the end of year bonuses coming through. Pics later...
 
These aren't very recent sightings, only happening within the last few months or so, but they are interesting. One day I was driving home from school and I saw a black Aston Martin Vanquish going through an intersection. Not being the biggest fan of them in games, I was awe-struck by how awesome it looks in real life. Extremely sharp lookin car. I saw the same car a few weeks later heading down the other side of the highway.

My other sighting was an old early 60s Jaguar XKE. One of the best looking cars ever made, imo. It was headed down the other side of the highway as I was heading to my friend's house.

Oh, and I found this sitting in my front yard:

Found a cool new way to share my pics. So all these Ferraris I saw yesterday afternoon. Highlights obviously were the yellow Superamerica and the three identical but separate 599 GTB's. Just a shame I couldn't get a better picture of the SA. Apologies if a couple are repeats going in the opposite direction.

Was there a mob hit going on? What the hell is a Fleetwood doing in Scotland without some kind of mob activity?
