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

[Turbo Lag]

well sadly, I was on a bus, so I couldn't yelp with joy. I heard it was there by my dad - but knowing him, he could've meant F430. These cars were at the supercar club.

Anyway - you have the supercar club in Melbourne right? That's where the Ford GT came from. I believe you spotted one in Melbourne? Red with white stripes? I think it's that one. As for the F40, a friend's dad (who's into cars....and DSLR cameras - so he has pics) went in and asked - it's not even theirs (the supercar club) but it's been loaned to promote a Ferrari track day at eastern creek. I'll see if I can get the CCR while I'm there too.

The first time I saw an F40 was when I was 4 playing soccer. I knew exactly what it was (I could identify a Dodge Viper when I was 3) and it was going full chat past the pitches - with the sunset's light directly on it. I moment I've never forgotten more than 10 years on.

Yeah there's a Supercar Club in Melb aswell, no idea where it is though. The red and white GT is indeed the one I saw. I've heard of a black Koeniggsegg in Sydney, I've seen some photos of it too. Good luck on finding these things, you'll be well rewarded when you do.

That is a DB7.

And that Micra must have a kit on it. Hell, it looks like it came off of a old Mini!

I saw a subaru like it on autowp.ru

No sir. Didn't you say it was a 73?

 

[Glanza-V]

I googled the merc yous were talking about and the merc I got a pic of looks like the one I got on google ?

The one you have looks like a 320. There's a pretty big difference between the two.

Funnily enough, there aren't any Subaru's on that websites pics and the image link clearly says it's from Wikimedia Commons. But I believe that's an Impreza.

 

[Glanza-V]

Go on autowp and go to the imprezas and keep looking and youll see a impreza "casablanca" ?? :S

Sounds rather strange...wouldn't see how the body kit from that could fit on a MICRA...

 

[Glanza-V]

I suppose, i just mentioned the sccooby because there in a similar style.

That's a Nissan Verita, which as you guessed is based on a Micra.
I found out what it was after googling "nissan micra retro", and one of the sites that came up was this forum. Interestingly, our very own niky appears to post there so if I hadn't told you what this was he probably would have!

And that Aston has been ruined by that bodykit.

Today was heaven! Yes... all these pics were taken in just ONE day in Long Island.

Here's some photos from sunday's local rallysprint event:

Glanza-V, how did you mistake a SL320 for an SL73? The body's different and the badge is there and everything. So disappointed!

Whilst people are posting pics from shows and showrooms. All these pics were from Saturday/Sunday...

 

[homeforsummer]

Fantastic pics, Rue 👍

Some nice shots, Rue! I'm suprised the MGBs and Elises (in Britain) made it into the thread though, there's quite a few about. Did you go inside MB World?

From the weekend, a very 70s Rolls...

...and a steam engine:

Sorry for the teeny weeny pic, but that was shot with an 18-55mm lens on a bridge a quarter mile away.

Nissan Skyline R33 GTR (at least, that's what the badge said):

What was the car behind it?

Oh,thanks, Was curious about the car , its weird.

What was the car behind it?

Hyundai Coupe (Tiburon for non Europeans).

Yes, that's a real GTR (nice colour too!) - great spot! I have seen so quite a lot of Skylines since being back. The MG's made it in because I like them and I haven't been to England for 4 years so they make a refreshing change to the endless R34 GT-R's, Ferraris and Porsches of Hong Kong. My dad would be disappointed if I didn't photograph the MG's as he's quite the enthusiast. I have a model of that steam engine!

Yes, I did go into MB World, but wasn't particularly enthralled. I did love the 300SL, 600 and the AMG E-Coupe though!

Thanks for the comments on the photos everyone.

Pretty much the only non-normal cars I see around where I live are a red, Porsche 986 Boxster S and a Mercedes-Benz R171 SLK (I believe it's the SLK 55 AMG, but I could be wrong.) Sorry, no pics of either.

 

[MinoltaMan89]

An SLR 722 Roadster!👍

older Camaro RS

 

[CyborgGT]

Saw an AMC Eagle at work today. I can hardly believe those are so high from the factory! I'd have to put some swampers on it if it were mine... oh yes.

That Vantage is godly 👍. What a beast.

Yes, very nice though I think Roo has posted it before.
