A bit blury, but I'm almost certain its a 1977 Toyota Celica GT Liftback

Extremely rare, and it looks like its well dressed! I gotta see this car in person some day...
 
Why have the calipers got Audi's RS badge on it? Does Lambo use Audi's Carbon Ceramics or something? :dunce:
Lamborghini's Carbon Ceramics are cross-drilled, not slotted & much bigger.

Not sure why the owner fitted Audi RS calipers. The pad could be a Brembo pad, but the Lamborghini caliper is more than enough for it.

Yes, that's it. It had those chrome vents in the C-pillar. Saw it in KLT heading towards Shatin if that's any help.

A few more that I was to tired to post last night. Nothing special but I thought I'd add them for diversities' sake. A couple of Kei cars I thought Cano might find interesting. Pics are grainy as hell as it was almost dark and all the cars were traveling.

Some very good spots here. I like the clever Mini lookalike, except it prolly has none of the Original's charm.

Joey, look away now:

Daihatsu Mini rip-off with rip-off minilites = rip-off win

Absolutely! There are loads of these around, mostly with all the rip-off Mini bits (which are factory options). These are way cooler than the BMW Mini IMO. They also they weigh nothing, have a pokey little 660cc turboed motor and cost about as much as a footballer's haircut. Also, being made in Osaka, Japan they're bullet proof and simple to work on and modify. It always brings a smile to my face when I see one skitting around with the little dump-valve whistling away. Awesome! I would love a stripped out one to frang around in.
 
I've heard nothing but fade stories about Murcielago brakes. Maybe he's trying out a new combo of some sort.
Perhaps the caliper fades (I haven't heard that), but the ceramic pads are absolutely top notch. The caliper shouldn't be any worse than the RS caliper though, seeing as both are Audi-developed.
 
Not bad... And a .7 litre turbo.. :lol: I could imagine the looks I'd get for having one here. Bet the mileage is impressive though.



Cheers,
Jetboy
 
yes, Evo VI...

Of course it's an Evo VI. Sorry, typo. :dunce:

Page 1000 coming up very soon. We need some ultra-awesome spots for that one, eh! Dac_Xint, it's my day off tomorrow what are you up to? We could go for a massive HK trawl.

I could identify a 30 year old celica, but this just loses me :D
Seen a few of these around but never paid much attention...

It's some kind of Toyota. I just saw a red one but when I took a photo of the back it came out blurry.

Sounds good, time & location? I'd be happy to come into Sai Kung and go from there, but I'd have to get there pretty early. Could crash at a friend's place tonight though

In process of sending you a PM.
 
Smart car with some body kit. Not sure if it was anything special. Brabus maybe? Not sure.

Right, Rue and I went around the island yesterday and saw several dozen tonnes of lovely metal, here's some of the stuff I took pictures of, and Rue will show you the rest I didn't catch. Sorry I know this is a big post, but we can feel glad that its not on the 1000th page milestone :P

Nice work, Paul. Your pics came out really well despite the low light we had. There are a few cheeky spots in there that I didn't see go by. Here are mine...

That's all folks! Here's to the next 1000 pages! :cheers:

Isn't that a Nissan Pao?

Yeah, that is an oddity! I can't find anything on Google about an LTD GTS-351, much less any sort of GTS-351! Not to mention, I can't find any vehicles with that style of side stripe. It's possible it's from an Australian Ford, perhaps someone down under could chime in. Whatever the deal is though, it's a sweet looking car!
