I was talking to the owner but I was also too busy at work.

Did it look basically like this?

Someone should slap that Pantera owner. Why claim it's a Ford when De Tomaso is so much better sounding?
My request: Can anyone spot a real Mustang Shelby Super Snake, I understand it is a package that goes on top of a Shelby GT500, but the normal snake on the Shelby gets the "Super Snake" around it + some more HP of course 👍👍👍.
Like this, not a picture from me:

They'll be tough to find. 2007-2009 with a total of a 1,000 built per model year makes them a bit rare, but the price tag also asked for around $75K for one as well. There's one in Dallas somewhere, so I'll keep a look out.
 
I think it's a Daewoo Tosca, but I don't know. I'm pretty sure it's a Buick LaCrosse, but with a Daewoo badge.

Yup:
saleenn2o_opt.jpg

Tuner Saleen modified the second generation USA Focus into the S121 and N20 performance cars. The S121 includes a 150 hp (112 kW) Duratec 2.0L I4 engine with improved suspension, custom body kit, custom graphics, tire and wheel package, customized interior components, and optional upgraded brakes. The 10% performance boost to the factory Duratec 2.0l I4 engine was achieved by replacing the factory paper air filter with a more freely flowing reusable air cleaner and by replacing the restrictive factory exhaust with a cat back exhaust system. The N20 offers the same base engine and other improvements along with a factory installed nitrous oxide system that offers a 75 hp (56 kW) boost bringing the N2O to 225 hp (168 kW). The S121/N2O are sold as new at many Ford dealers. There were 200 S121/N2O's produced by Saleen in 2005.
 
'Tis in fact a DTS, but you're right about it not looking right in yellow.

Thanks; fixed! 👍


Starting off with a pair of Audi's:

Audi S4 2008


Audi S4 2010



Ford Mustang SVT Cobra convertible 2004

The winter is getting to me. Even Cobra's are attracting my attention.


Mercedes-Benz S63 AMG

It's been a while since I've had an AMG to post so...here: an S63 at CVS.


Ferrari 400i

Perhaps the least special-looking Ferrari of all time. It could easily be mistaken for a generic Japanese import of the same era. Really, only the badging and the wheels give it away.


Mistusbishi Outlander NISMO

It's that elusive NISMO Outlander! 💡
 
I thought it was his at first too, looks very similar to the one in my president is black video.

It was pretty bad for a while when they both had the matching wheels and they always used to park at the same places. There were a total of 3 blue on blue Murcielagos at the same time in Atlanta and it was pretty annoying, the other one is owned by Ciara.

A few from tonight, crappy camera...sorry

2005 Ferrari 612 F1

Interestingly the owner has averaged 60kms a day in it over the last year so I'm guessing it must be a daily driver. In comparison the previous owner only averaged 1.8kms a day...
 
It seems I missed some cars in my last post
302413p_th.jpg
, picked them up now .

Maserati Quatroporte (not my favourite, but still)

BMW Z3 M-Coupe

Mercedes-Benz S600 under the snow (was parked there for more then 24H, saw the snow melting the next evening.

A Smart roadster (a just liked the idea of a super small engined, super light car)

Jaguar XF 8SV

And finally got a Nissan GTR on the street:

Did never see a lot of Lambourghinis in Luxembourg (except in a showroom), the the Ferraris seem to be put away for winter and I keep missing to get a shot at the Bentleys.
I'll dig a bit in my archives, when I have the time (so not like the tread states "today", but still).

E38 Interestingly the owner has averaged 60kms a day in it over the last year so I'm guessing it must be a daily driver. In comparison the previous owner only averaged 1.8kms a day...
So:
1) You know the owner
2) You maintained the car
3) You stopped the car and got this information out of the owner

Always good to hear about owners driving their Ferraris daily.

Chevy Colbat, Ok so I thought I remember hearing about a special edition Cobalt or something. I might just be making it up, but I thought I remember seeing something once. Anyway I have a horrible picture of it if anyone else can back me up if I'm right.

IMG_5527.jpg


I don't know....

Well the car was actually pretty clean, the wheels......no

GTO that had The Judge on it, but I'm not sure if it's a fake. Probably not, but just playing it safe.

Ahh, I thought it looked nothing like a Bronco. I asked my mom and dad while we were looking and they said yes so I went with it, oops :lol:
 
I don't know....

'32 Ford, looks like a 2WD Pulling Vehicle. not exactly the most sophisticated vehicle, tires are relatively small compared to what typically shows up...even the "first," the Orange Blossom Special, has larger rear tires. I'd guess this is either built by an amateur team and competes at local pulls, or is one of the earliest 2WD vehicles from the late '70s/early '80s, and has changed hands several times. The engine's really far forward, and (take a look,) there's no front suspension, tips me off that this (nice looking, if nothing else) vehicle was meant for pulling, rather than sand drags or other forms of dirt motorsport.

Also, someone should tell this guy he'll get better bite if the tires are turned around the other way.

EDIT: I take back the comment about the OBS's tires...looks like they're not that much bigger.
