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

All I got today:

Note that neither has a closed roof.

Damn that must be getting seriously frustrating doug, how many SRT-10 verts have you seen now? When (if?) you finally see one i can see you making a huge fuss about it. Big, bold, red letters and all

 

[Rue]

as I said... some shots turn out alright with HDR... some don't.

Well those ones certainly did. Very nice! I'll make sure I take my mini tripod out from now on. I'll go down to the neony areas and try and get some shots of cars if you fancy collaborating on a few.

Seventeen, a total of FORTY SEVEN TIMES.

This guy comes in the store all the time. He finally drove his DeTomaso Pantera again. He had the decklid off getting painted, I didn't even think to get a shot of the engine bay. Next time he drives it I'll get some more pics.

He also has a Cadillac Allante.

Lmao. But I insist you keep taking pics of every Viper you see. Forever.

I bet the day you find a closed roof, your camera will break.

Nice spot on the Pantera 👍

Shame it's spoiled with such oversized wheels, especially since it's a nice stock looking early model.

You've seen one small block Cleveland, you've seen them all.

The front view was a real fuss to make halfway decent, but the rear came out nicely. I'm currently HDR'ing most of the pics I took in Paris, since the overcast skies make it look awesome.

I'll gladly HDR your pics as well... night shots are a bit trickier, hence why I resized them so much, but I'll have a go at any... your neony pics look awesome without retouching anyway, so HDR'ing them can only make them look better, me thinks.

If you can get daytime pics, with overcast skies, that would be awesome too.

Do you keep a list of how many times you've seen certain cars?

 

[McLaren]

Doug, have you at least seen any of the '08 convertibles?

 

[Serge.D]

 

[Venari]

Nice two tone!

 

[bondy_1625]

ugh, thats a nasty mkIII astra, i used to drive one of those so that really makes me cringe..

And on the XK, i dont thinnk i've seen a new look one on the road yet, only the new XKR. :|

 

[1X83Z]

Do you keep a list of how many times you've seen certain cars?

Yes - a very long list. I have for some time. It includes the URL to the best photo of the car, the plate number, the location, the date and day of the week, and the number of the model that I've seen.

Doug, have you at least seen any of the '08 convertibles?

I don't believe so but I also don't believe I know what the changes are.

 

[Turbo Lag]

Also, is there a place to see every single one of your spots? Id love to see em all 👍

 

[McLaren]

I don't believe so but I also don't believe I know what the changes are.

Mainly a different set of standard rims. The hood vents are also a little more "flare" to them.

 

[JCE]

Its not a VR4 and its not even an SL--but it is still a beautiful car to look at.

 

[ND4SPD]

Mainly a different set of standard rims. The hood vents are also a little more "flare" to them.

I believe they also got a new colour as well, snakeskin green. Oh, not to mention an extra 90hp.

Pictures don't do this colour justice, it's much nicer and breathtaking in real life.

*Note the new hood vents.

 

[Brett]

The '08 Vipers received multiple new colors, four to be exact (I think), with the colors being Blue Metallic, Snakeskin Green, Very Orange Pearl, and Violet Pearl.

Also, is there a place to see every single one of your spots? Id love to see em all 👍

Well, there was this one:

And about 740 others.

No, presently no such place exists... this thread is as close as it comes; it's got probably about 60% of them. I'd love to create something where I could catalogue them all, but I'm so pressed for time that I can barely browse this site let alone create another. I've given it serious thought in the past, though.

I should have a website up by mid-summer, Doug. If you want, I could see about hosting your photos on it, since I plan to buy from whoever offers to most bandwith.

 

[nd 4 holden spd]

What is this Porsche?!

 

[Rykon Zero]

A modified 914.

 

[nd 4 holden spd]

Oh, modified, so it's not an actual model made by Porsche.

 

[Revheadnz]

That Hijet you spotted is ridiculous Rue 👍

Parents used to own one of them, I recognise the rear window, just a bit different to the other vans (Suzuki Carry etc).
It was easily the unsafe feeling vehicle you could ever ride in. Your legs were the crumple zone and it would be caught and chucked about by gusts of wind like a paper bag.
Good thing they sold it before I learned to drive, I probably would have flipped it.

Standard one for reference

Bandwidth isn't the problem - it's designing a cohesive website that looks good and functions

 

[Turbo Lag]

Damn, i would've loved to see all your spots.
