I went on holiday recently, I went to 2 places the first being the Gower in Wales (Near Swansea) and then Shrewsbury. Surprisingly, I didn't see that many supercars/sportscars. The Gower only offered one car, being my first ever Nissan GTR sighting!

But possibly one of the worst photographs I've taken.

Shrewsbury offered, well...I'll let you figure it out.

Morgans. Lots of 'em. These were the only ones I caught with photos, in total I counted seeing 6 Morgans in Ironbridge, over 2 days.
 
What did you think of it on the road? The rear of the car looks incredibly awkward in pictures, but I will withhold further judgments until I see one in the flesh.

I thought the front end looked really good and the back was just plain awful. I was hoping I would like it when I saw it in person but it was a pretty big letdown.

As for why it was on the road already, the North American Headquarters for Porsche is here in Atlanta and that was where the car was headed. We usually see the new models a few weeks or months before they hit the dealers. A few weeks ago I saw one of the new 911's but couldn't get a picture of it.
 
Great spot on the Panamera Zonderf, wonder when I'll be able to spot one in Hong Kong.

A few more from my trusty 30D

had to post one, just love these things. Yesterday a Matt Black one parked outside my apartment building, but I couldnt catch it in time when I went to pick up my camera... douh

Indeed they do: There is a white S5 that occasionally does a pickup at the back carpark of my school and although I believed initially the white to be too bland for such a car, it has since grown on me. :)
 
I don't usually post without a picture, but I think this warrants a mention. Yesterday afternoon I spotted a Ferrari 250 GT SWB Berlinetta going in the opposite direction on a flatbed truck. What an unbelievable machine! I couldn't believe my eyes. Will post my feeble pic later.

Absolutely beautiful bit of machine! Maybe in the future, the car will be powering itself down the road and you will be able to snap up a picture of it.
 
Hello Rue

Not to correct you but that is not a R34 but a R33, to make the picture even better that you took was it is a rare LM Limited edition R33 GT-R V-Spec.
 
Time for a rare appearance in this thread. Earlier today after my blood pressure checked, I saw and heard... a black Audi R8! I've seen the R8 road car in countless pictures, but never seeing (and hearing) it until checking out that car as it zoomed by. BEAUTIFUL car!
 
There is no way that this can be anything than a traffic jam of cars waiting to get to a prestige/supercar meeting. If not, then oh-my-god:



What members here live in London? 💡

Yeah, I know. Had a bit of a brain-fart. Unfortunately it's not an LM version, I was a definate respray in a different blue but the camera doesn't really pick it up.
 
Badly parked Superamerica, at a garden centre of all places. When the owner returned with several plants a group of elderly women were greatly impressed with the boot space :lol:

Toronto provided some pretty cool and awesome spots, but doing my client running on Thursday before I left yielded some good results as well.

Gallardo Spyder, parked right outside work too.

Yup he has, I actually took a lot of his suggestions on where to car hunt at so a tip of the hat to him.
