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

[harrytuttle]

It's got a roof pod. That's classic. They bought a track machine and put a roof pod on it. That would be like a ski rack on a Porsche...oh wait didn't Doug already see that?

I didn't even notice that. I thought it was on the car in front of the Mini. Well, shows how I take most of my photos: shoot first, look later.

I'm not close to Silicon Valley.... Yes there are tons of rich people but 90% of them keep them in there garage.

Seconded. I'm not far from Greenwich, CT, Rye/Bedford/Scarsdale, NY...basically, one of the richest areas of the world. Hardly anything but luxury SUVs are on the road. Why? Not sure. In the winter, I understand, but this summer has been downright spectacular weather. There's no excuse not to drive what you own. This area just isn't that flashy. It's not that they don't compete with each other, they just hold their cards close to the chest.

Wow, I photographed that very same ferrari and a few other exotics at a grocery store a few blocks from my house! I'll post the pics. Where did you take this picture?

Old Mills Inn & Spa, this afternoon at 1pm.

The Audi does it best simply because the wheels on the Esprit suck.

Thanks! I like how they all parked at the starbucks parking lot but they all went into a restaurant beside the grocery store!

Also, that 360 Spyder had nearly the same plates as the yellow 360 coupe except with the "c"s and "k"s switched around!

I just had a bowel movement.

That is very awesome looking! 👍 Is the sideblade also black or carbon fibre? I cannot quite tell by that picture. Either way, the all black looks wonderful.

 

[Dazzla]

Saw my first Shelby GT500 today, the supercharger whine is amazing in person!

Looks like carbon fiber, having seen the option on a black one (and a red, and a gray one) before.

Useless fact: The cost of shipping only, via UPS; next-day-air, insured, and cross-country delivery of carbon fiber R8 sideblades costs ~$250.00. And that's if you put in one (not-over-sized) carton.

A little nod to our Australian friends' racing heritage in that photo I see!

 

[CyborgGT]

Nice Viper photo, exigeracer. Very professional-looking. 👍

I'm actually starting to see some quality rides in this one-horse (or should I say bull?) town:

Acura NSXs:

Audi RS4

987 Boxster S Limited Edition

996 Carrera

Corvair Corsa

Mercury Comet

 

[Rotary Junkie]

Nice spot on the 'Vair!

Be damned if it ain't a nice example.

 

[Danny]

Isn't that GT3 RS Orange?

 

[McLaren]

Isn't that GT3 RS Orange?

Yes, it is. It was a limited edition model of only 500 units.

 

[CyborgGT]

Yikes! I just looked into it: 250 base models, 250 S's, and more horsepower. Sweet.

 

[Turbo Lag]

Audi RS4

That looks absolutely fabulous in that colour 👍

 

[Bones Brigade]

i saw a couple cool autos in some inopportune situations.

Ford GT, white with blue stripes, looked amazing, so low and wide. was driving home with the girlfriend after just making her quite angry over some things said at dinner. wasnt really a great time to flip a u-turn and chase down a car for a picture.

E60 M5. First i've ever seen. I had just ran to grab a bite to eat and didnt bother taking anything but my keys, so no camera of any type on hand.

 

[Casio]

Special version with the wing or is it an after market thing? Either way this thing was turning heads....

 

[McLaren]

Just an aftermarket spoiler, but since the car is already a track machine from the factory, it may just improve the car even more.

 

[CyborgGT]

That looks absolutely fabulous in that colour 👍

It was pretty bright out, so I had to lower the exposure, and I think I went a little too far. But yeah, the car looks great in that color.

I just had a bowel movement.

Having now seen Casio's Superleggera spot, I know how you feel.

Looks to me like CF... only thing that ruins it is that white license plate

Gorgeous car

 

[Tornado]

I did see something interesting today. A Corolla AE86 with what appeared to be a rotary engine in it.

And a Cooper Clubman S (though I didn't get a picture of that).

 

[Cano]

Been a while since I checked this over, so lets move back...

Yesterday...

m0d3n4

Legnum VR-Phwoar

GT3 RS

chaser_fan

E500 (E550 in US) complete with Shaolin monk

And one more cos I think it's mean...

This post was awesome, the Legnum and Chaser seal the deal, but the Ferrari... oh man, I normally dont download the pictures posted here unless they are very special cars, I can get into Ferrari's press site and see a stock 360 Modena, but this thing is incredibly bad-ass, its amazing, I'm officially requesting each and every shot of this thing in the highest res possible, man. NOW.

[

For Cano.

hahaha I love when Serge says "for Cano" and posts a beat up old car, that's what it's all about. We need closer shots of the Fiat, those things rule.

Large haul today; I went on a 3+ hour bike ride around town. These aren't particularly rare, but I liked 'em. I saw my first street Aston today, I think it was a DB7 Volante, but it was going the opposite way, so I didn't have time to take out my camera. I tried following it, but lost it.

SLK 230 / GSX-R600 / M5 / R32


M3 / YZF-R6 / C6 conv / XK8 coupe


Ford Fairlane / SC Targa / XJ6 / Mustang


C3 Stingray (amazing sound) / Ram Daytona / C6 Z06 / '76 Mustang and some Chrysler I can't ID


Chevy Corvair 95 / SSR / Carrera 4 / Chrysler New Yorker


Nova / 912 / ForTwo / Thunderbird


Thunderbird / SL 500 / Miata hard top / Taurus SHO


Anyone know what these are?

This post was randomly awesome, partly because it's like something I would post, but of course, without all of the newer exotics, but the real highlights is the Mustang, come on, look at those slicks! also the pair of 41-42 (I think) Chryslers and the Corvair puckup, that one is specially rare.

got damn, I need to post something...

 

[CyborgGT]

Haha. Yeah, that day I pretty much thought "I'll just snap anything and everything I like."

 

[TopHat]

Sorry for not having pics, but they pale in comparison to some of the spots here. All I saw today in Huntington was a Porsche Cayman S (complete w/ red graphics on the side), a Jaguar XF, and a Aston Martin DB9.

I really like that Comet BTW.

 

[Cano]

Haha. Yeah, that day I pretty much thought "I'll just snap anything and everything I like."

got damny your latest post is awesome too, the Comet and the Corvair! we need MORE from you.

The red NSX is pretty interesting, was it supercharged or turbocharged?

 

[bergauk]

Haha, theres a white 65' Comet Cyclone in my driveway. Maybe I should put the fender bac on and shoot it

 

[CyborgGT]

Honestly, I do not know what kind of boost that NSX was running. The owner was nowhere in sight, and even though he left the hood open, I wasn't going to go peaking around in his car. It's akward enough when people look at you wierd for photographing random cars, you know what I mean?
