BMW Z8.
 
The wheels appear to be from Alpina. Did you happen to look to see if the car was a standard? If it happened to be an automatic, then that would mean it is an Alpina Z8; otherwise, it is a BMW Z8. Either way, cool spot. 👍

No - Alpina Z8. Much rarer, much crappier. Great spot!!

See above. Really, I see an E-Type every week. They're gorgeous, but not particularly uncommon or particularly valuable.

Yeah, and you see 87865 ferraris a day and you STILL photograph them, even a 348!!! please, an E-Type is cool.
 
I spotted my own E-Type tonight - at the same golf course parking lot as the Carrera 4S, believe it or not (it's on my nightly bike route). There were a handful of nice cars there; mostly old MGs. Besides these pics, there was a Mini Clubman, an older 911, and a Miata hard top, but they were too crowded around to get pics of. I didn't feel like waiting.

... eh, it's only a snap-photography camera. Sucks for night shots. I'll get a 'real' camera one of these days.
 
Spotted quite a lot today, most of it I didn't bother taking pics of (Bentley cont GT's, dented Bentley flying spur, F430, Ferrari 360, white Exige and others) and some I can't be bothered uploading on this PC but here is a few.

I only took this shot because it reminded me of Dougs silver 308 drive in the premo forum

And the man himself.... who seems to have spotted me!

(Yes I did go and talk to him, very nice guy)
 
There's Chip!!! You're in California?

BTW all this Z8 talk is coincidental considering I saw this one on the way to work today...

Yes that is a dog in the front passenger seat.
 
Too bad I still don't live in the STL area. There is a BMW dealership with a Alpina tuned Z8. The car had no specs when I saw it, it was just there with the windows down and they even let potential buyers (not just for this car) get in it.
 
There's Chip!!! You're in California?

Yep, in which in the first 10 minutes of leaving the airport (LAX) I saw a SRT/10 Viper and a late model orange Diablo passing quiclkly on the hwy so didn't get a close look or pictures. :(

No that was his personal shop (where he is expanding at the moment), not the shops they use in the show. He told me they finished the shooting overhaulin last december and at the moment he has had a lot of offers for shows and is considering them. He also said they have slowed down with 'overhaulin' from started by shooting for two shows a month, being pushed into three shows a month then they refused to do that many and slowed it down till the last season just shot with eight shows in six months. He is currently not sure what show he will be doing next (maybe more overhaulin) but he will be back on TV with something.


In his shop at the moment he has a 3 Hemi's (Cuda, Challenger and a Charger)aswell a 32' lincoln and some other car he is working on for the 2010 Riddler award!

That's a '67 Camaro (no sidemarkers) with '68 doors (no quarterlights) and an LS-Series small block with a painted truck manifold (fair choice.)

Tasty.
