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

[Rue]

Excellent spot on the Aeromax Serge. 👍
Rue: Why'd you take a photo of a Jazz in the rain? Also, the people who bought the Cayenne Gemballa Biturbo has no taste!!!

I guess an M5 would've been more appropriate, but I thought that a lot of the Americans on here have a thing for the Jazz.

And I agree, those Gemballa Cayenne are offensive.

Doesn't Richard 'Hamster' Hammond have one of those Morgans?

Great M5 pic!!!!!

 

[harrytuttle]

Nothing really special in this post, other than it's the last I'll be making having used a Canon camera. After years of frustration, I'm done with Canon. It was probably accelerated by the fact that I broke my SD600, but at least it pushed me to get a camera that doesn't override my settings, assuming I'm some kind of moron for not having the flash on. Goodbye, Canon; hello, Panasonic!

But in the meantime:

Chevrolet Nova 307

Some nubmers just roll off the tongue and evoke images of awesome engines: 289, 327, 396, 427.... Note how 307 is not one of them.


Studebaker Champ

Neat little pickup. Immaculately...restored, I'm guessing, rather than original.


Dodge Challenger RT 2009

A friend of mine said he saw the new Camaro driving across the parking lot. I figured "no way"...and I was right. Vaguely similar cues, but from a distance of 300', through tinted office-window glass, and a handful of trees, I suppose you could confuse one with the other. Like My Cousin Vinny: "Troo dis screen...and dis window...wit dis dirt on it...and all dese bushes...and 1, 2, 3, 4...5 trees! Through all dat, you saw dese defendants?"


Auburn boat-tail

Or, at least I think it is. This is the best example of how Canon can screw up a reasonably good night shot. This is also the last example I'll be posting.

 

[Bones Brigade]

put it on full manual?

 

[exigeracer]

I'm dying to get my stuff back into this thread and my collection in the photography section, but silly computer problems are hindering my show and tell. I've seen so much over the last two weeks!

If things go as promised to me, then I should have a pile of updates within 24 hours, including a couple derivatives of this SLR/SL63 combo and a seperate 722 session that I threw down the other day.

 

[Smallhorses]

Didn't see this today, but a couple of weeks ago on my way home from work in Davis, CA. Forgot about it until I connected my camera up to send some pictures back to my parents.
Not necessarily "good", but rare and unusual.

Nice spot on the Morgan Serge.

I love that car sooo much, I love the design, its so different, and when you would see one at the stop light, you don't expect it run rings around most other sport cars. Its a awesome sleeper!

Nice job on the research on discovering exactly what the car is! 👍 Even more props to the excellent spot!

Thanks guys. 👍
Sorry no pictures,imageshack dont work for me.

From Saturday:

Ferrari F430 Spider

Lamborghini Murcielago

Lamborghini Murcielago LP640

BTW Serge, that Morgan spot is really, really cool.

Funny how Mexico actually makes a better car than America for once!

Actually, the Mexican Super Bee based on Valiant Dusters were also better than the equivalent 318 US Demon or Dart Sport with a 3.53:1 posi rear diff, hood scoops and hood tach as no-extra-cost standard equipment, standard Tuff Steering Wheel and Console, tinted windows and buckets at no extra cost and a more powerful 318 ci engine (270 hp to 245hp more or less) thanks to a more aggressive cam profile. And the exclusivity of being a car only marketed in Mexico.

Of course, I’m talking about the 318 cars, the 340 Dusters and Darts were on a different league, but we never received an engine larger than 318 ci (later 360, but that was when the 318 and 340 had been retired).

I’ve been in a pristine, 34k original miles 1974 mexican Super Bee (belongs to a good friend, pic soon) with A833 4-speed and it still peels to third! The engine and everything else is stock and original, they are awesome cars, more or less cheap and relatively easy to find, and have strong street creed in Mexico.

That's what he was doing.

[bondy_1625]

Dang, was that just luck that you stumbled across that or were you going intentionally.
The black/orange GT3RS is my favourite colour combo, looks awesome

I was just lucky,I did not now that they were comming to that place.
One day I was taking pics of cars there and there was a car who was open
with a GPS on the passenger seat and I said that to one of the waiters who
works there.
And now again I was just taking pics of a Porsche when that same waiter told me to come back later,because there where between 30 and 50 Porsches who where gonna come there.
I took 42 photos and made 4 vids of them.

Is it Ford "Kah" or "Kay-Ay"? I've always wondered...

I didn't see anyone respond to this, so: it's "kah," named after the way the English pronounce 'car.'

My spots today were a Plymouth Prowler (my second in the last couple weeks) and what I think was a Roush Mustang.

 

[Rue]

That GT3 RS is pure badass! One of my favourite cars of recent years, I just love the OTT colour combos on the RS's. That RSR is a peach too, Serge. Hardcore 911's rule all!

 

[zonderf]

V8V

4 door M3

I'll also add to Serge's Porsche sightings with a 997 GT2

 

[Rue]

GT2. Nice! Seen plenty of 996 GT2's and a 993 GT2, but I've yet to see a 997 in the wild. Good spot!

Agreed. I believe even Patrick Dempsey has chosen that combo for his GT3 RS.

 

[stumpydino]

i dont say car like kah iv heard the ka spoken like initials k a

 

[TheCracker]

None the less it is pronounced 'ford car'
