The '97 Prius? I don't think that was in GT4... The first Prius in GT4 was the 2002 version, I think. I thought the car I saw this morning was a rare sight, since it was an 'S' reg (1998), and had a Japanese dealership sticker on the rear window...
 
Saw this in my small town today...I know nothing super cool to some of you but it was neat to me! Sorry for the cellphone pics but it's a Carrera 4S.

I didn't know there was a '97 Prius either. There's two in GT4... the 2002(J) and 2003 Touring Selection(J). In America those models are known as the 2003 and 2005 versions. Trust me, I see about 80000 of them daily, especially because my dad has one.
 
I'm going to say this is a fake AMG, but hey, you never know



And a big thank you to Imageshack for resizing my pic smaller than I asked it to.

The Prius came out in 1997 in Japan, but it wasn't sold until 2001 in the rest of the world. The 1997-2000 model looks quite similar to the 2001-2003 model.
 
Don't know about "Good" as such, but I saw something unusual this morning - a 1997 Toyota Prius, which I didn't know existed... exactly the same as this one...

That first generation Prius was featured in Gran Turismo 2. It was a fun, yet boring little thing.

That linki won't let me see the image full size. What number did it say on the left? SL350, SL500, SL600, SL55, SL60, SL65, SL73?
 
That limo has to be one of the strangest looking I have ever seen. It's horrible! Nice Mustang. It's a shame I will never see anything that cool here.

That's what I meant with Imageshack resizing my pic. The car had a SL500 badge... I'm thinking AMGs usually have the SL55 or something with two digits, but this one being an older (pre-AMG Purchase), mebbe it counted? Or then again, since it had a FOR SALE sign, the owner was probably trying to jack up the price with a fake AMG decal.

Anyhow, I cleaned up my camera and here's what I found on it:

A Daimler



BMW Z3 M Roadster


Nissan 350Z Roadster


undescript Mini something


BMW 1602


Smart Roadster


A couple of older American cars I forgot the names of


another one of those Mini things


Ford Mondeo ST220


Porsche Cayenne S


Lexus RX400h


Ford Mondeo ST200


Honda Civic Type R


Jaguar XK8


BMW M5


Ford Taunus
 
Is that 'undescript Mini something' is an Austin 1100?

Just now on the way to the minibus home...

Audi R8

The first one I mean.

I saw this too. Honda Crossroad Mugen Edition. I think these are Japan market only...

Actually on closer inspection I think could be a Wolseley Hornet as well, although they are pretty much the same thing I believe.

I call it Mini Fugly... close inspection makes you think out loud "WTF?" The parked one (blue) didn't have any badges, and I didn't really check the one in the parking lot since it was in a dark part.

Great photo!!

Actually, there are a couple around in Oakwood.

I was giving you crap - there's no SL65 on the generation he posted (R129). The SL65 is on the R230 style.

Either it was a slow day, or you decided to post the weird stuff. I'm guessing you don't see either as often as you see CGTs.

I saw two Continental GTs and a Flying Spur today and passed on photos for those cars.
 
A co-worker (who remains unknown) drives this hot Alfa...which I have no clue what model it is. If I have more time next time I need to take a shot or two of the interior.
