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

[DKX]

I really like the last pic with the F430 and H1.

Amazingly both sets of rims on them work well with them and actually look good.

 

[Rue]

Great spot on the Q1. There's a guy on another forum with a Rossian Q1. IIRC it's the same guy (from Washington) with the Verde Ithica Murci SV in the Sexy and Mean Cars thread, but I need to go to the other forum and check. If I'm not getting my wires crossed, then I wonder if it's his?

 

[McLaren]

We have a silver one here in Dallas. However, rumors are going around that he's already selling it after less than 4 months of building it.

Meh, I was wrong. It's another guy on that forum but I can't find him. Oh well.

Yes! Completely the opposite to how the last 430 looks. Ugh!

Expect some interesting spots from me later ...

this is awesome!!!

 

[MinoltaMan89]

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:

Old post, but I happened to see one of these today. Does anyone know if it's real or not? I wasn't aware that they made a convertible.

Also, great spots Rue, as always.

 

[Turbo Lag]

Bloody hell there are some epic spots on this and the last page. 👍

I totally missed this the first time around and just saw where someone quoted it but I saw one a few months back when the Bullrun came through town.

Also with today's spots

996 GT3

430 Spyder

ugly all blue R8

Gallardo Nera look alike

 

[E38]

Is the number plate taped onto the rear of that orange Zonda?

 

[MinoltaMan89]

It would appear so...I doubt it's holding it on though.

 

[Dac_Xint]

I've been away for quite a long time, been very busy with work, so I'll just take some time to comment on some of the posts that caught my attention on the last few pages...

Great spot! I'd love to see these in person again, I have a soft spot for the europa. And I really like that black 612 with the huge black rims, very classy.

Blown 1977 Holden Torana V8

Holy hell this thing looks cool!

I've never heard of a Rossion Q1, they look like a very generic supercar kit car... are they good cars?

RUE Love the Eunos Roadster, that's some body kit! and the Pajero too! Zonda & Lambos looks amazing as always, and the M5 sports wagon is rare here!

All in all, really nice activity despite the crapy weather. Here are some of my spots so far in February. Click on the smaller thumbs for bigger picture

Legacy


Brabus

Toyota Mark II


Quattroporte

Guy on a bling crotch rocket


Toyota Mark X & Century


Then, some spots in Macau, I wasn't too huge on the gambling, so went out for walks most of the time.

Cool Jazz


M3


Civic EF, there are so many Civics old and new there it's insane.

Same goes for the Suzuki Swift Sport


Nice red 2

Liking these Civic, and a lovely Supra


Back to Hong Kong, this beautiful Celica ST186 GT Four RC on rally O.Z. Racing rims... Carlos would be proud.

R32 with nice after market rims


More interesting Legacys/Legacies


Best looking Cayenne I've ever seen that isn't in black, someone please identify the body kit for me?

Seems like someone bought the classic RUE and I saw a while ago, this car is now in pristine condition, very well restored completed with white wall tyres!

More pics of this thing in my gallery, check my signature for the link.

Lastly, a nice SS-III


And a very special matte black Delica early model, the L-300 on off road wheels

 

[Rue]

Hey Paul! Good to see you back in the thread. We must go out this week if you're not too snowed under with work. I literally just saw that Cayenne a couple of hours ago but got the worst drunken shot ever (yeah, I'm still me). Nice work on the Skyline spot, btw!

 

[Brett]

I've never heard of a Rossion Q1, they look like a very generic supercar kit car... are they good cars?

Rossion is an American company that imported the Noble M400 and then changed up some items on the vehicle.

 

[homeforsummer]

World's worst photo of a Porsche 968. I don't normally snap Porkers, but I can't remember the last time I saw a 968 that wasn't at a show of some sort.

Would drag racing count? If so I have a nice one for you

 

[homeforsummer]

Two things spring to mind in that instance. The first is that if you've seen it at a drag race, then I didn't personally see it, nor was it on the road. So my comment would still apply

Feel free to post the pic in the imports thread though.

 

[Rue]

I have a massive hangover and couldn't sleep, so I tried to forget about the pain by coming up with a little side project: DYSAGT Trumps!

I plan to make a set, adding to it every now and again with great spots from the thread. Anyone that would like their pics in, let me know which and I'll add them.

This seemed like a great idea at 4am :S

 

[homeforsummer]

Heh, awesome idea. I'll see if I have anything decent to add. I know I've got a Ford GT, Plymouth Prowler, a Pullman Merc, a Citroen DS Decapotable, a Stratos and the first DYSAGT Evora to chuck in there if needs be, probably my best spots so far.

 

[Cano]

oh man FINALLY a freaking M5 wagon. I've been wanting to see one in this place forever and ever. Awesome. And of course, all the other spots from Rue and Dac are immense, specially the in-the-street classic Skyline!!! amazing!!!!!!!

The mud dragster is not a 32 ford, is a 34 Ford, haha

 

[zonderf]

560

GT3

awful Maybach

 

[Rue]

That LG LP is so nice!

Great! That's one on board. Can you PM me the pics with a rough month/year when you saw them and I'll add them. Anyone else in?!

 

[McLaren]

Rossion is an American company that imported the Noble M400 and then changed up some items on the vehicle.

Somewhat. Rossion was working on M400s & M12s a few years ago, but when the production stopped, Noble sold all the rights to Rossion which allowed them to start building "their" versions of the M400. It keeps some of the M400's strengths, but a lot of the work is Rossion's own.

They are very good cars though, if owners' words are to go by.

 

[Rue]

Are they not built in South Africa?

 

[McLaren]

Are they not built in South Africa?

Noble's are (or were?). Rossion, though, was importing them as kits as that was the only way to legalize one in the states. They're located in Florida, now.

EDIT* Noble appears to be building the M600 in England now & just outsourced the M12/M400 to South Africa.

 

[Dac_Xint]

Rue what have you been drinking?

I'd chip in but I'm not sure what qualifies, maybe some novelty cars from my gallery that will trump any super-car with some weird value? You're welcome to pick anything from my gallery.

btw thanks for the info on the Rossion, this place can sometimes be better than wiki.

And thanks Cano! (btw your message inbox was full so I couldn't send you any more messages)

zonderf that Maybach really is awful... truth be told I can't remember seeing a very good looking Maybach, they have a very odd stance and profile it almost makes them look cheap.
Anyone willing to challenge my opinion with some amazing pics of this flop by Mercedes?

 

[Rue]

Rue what have you been drinking?

Cheap white wine and Corona. Not good individually, but mixed seems to poke the right side of what's left of my brain.

I can nee do it c'ptain!

Love that Mazda 2 in Makkers. When I get my camera, we should do a Macau spotting trip sometime.

 

[nk4e]

Have you guys ever been threatened by the owners of these cars?

 

[Rue]

Everyone whose car I have taken a photo of has been thoroughly decent. I think generally someone who doesn't want to be noticed doesn't buy an orange Zonda or a yellow Lamborghini. If an owner doesn't want a one of my pictures of his/her car on the internet, they are more than welcome to let me know and I will take it down. If I drove a nice car I would be proud for someone to take a photo of it.
