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

[Vince_Fiero]

I'm pretty sure I've seen that being the logo for an exotic car rental.

Do not say you are wrong, but this car is from Basics & Bespoke men's clothing:

That we talk about it gives it more value then I wanted to give it. The car also has nice black racing stripes, but the rest ruins it for me.
===================================

Edit: at lunch got attention from dogs in a truck, then looked at the truck:

Chevrolet Trailblazer

 

[Rue]

the Bentley turbo R is the star. you dont see those.

Cough. We have an astonishing amount of them here. They are always one of those classics that I would love to own. They are sooo much car for the money, but I think you need to own a small oil-field to run them.

Are trailblazer's not common where you are? Trailblazers and Envoys are everywhere around my house, I see those two models more than civics!

 

[Gil]

So, I was driving to work in Raytown, MO yesterday afternoon/evening and a Lambo Gallardo cabrio passed me going the other way!
If you've ever been to Raytown, you'll understand why I'm a bit flabbergasted.
I was passing a soul food restaraunt called Neicie's at the time, if that gives y'all a hint.

 

[Joey D]

I think I saw one Blazer the entire time I was in Europe and I never saw a Trailblazer...I'm not even sure if they are sold over there.

Ah, ok. The logo was familiar, but it was hard trying to read the print on it.

 

[NISM0_SKYLINE]

Pretty good day today. Although tomorrow should be amazing.

Old Rolls in a car wash

Bentley

Cadillac Coupe

Dodge something

2nd Maserati Q of the day

'98 Indy 500 Corvette

Supra

Maserati GT

Panamera

Vanquish (random)

Turbo Carrera

EPIC Subaru to me atleast.

 

[exigeracer]

Yeaahs that Subaru is all kinds of trendy. I like it, nonetheless.

 

[breakpoint]

If you want a real STI don't buy a new one like that, complete garbage.

 

[Joey D]

Some old car, it looked cool. 1952 Ford Mainline is my guess (the plate had 1952 on it).

Bentley Arnage

E92 M3 hard top convertible

Plymouth Belvedere

Mercedes-Benz 560SL with some poorly fitted rims

An unmolested RX-7, I was amazed! Typically they at least have some stupid sized exhaust on them.

Lamborghini Gallardo Spyder with a number plate that read "MYLAMBO"...thanks for that dude!

SAAB Turbo X

Ferrari F430, Dodge Neon and Porsche 911

Any ideas? It looks like Hyundai but it has a weird badge on it.

 

[RandomUsername]

Spotted this Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40(?) last night:

Sorry about the rubbish pic.

 

[Vince_Fiero]

Your pics are great Vince. Luxembourg looks like a very interesting place for spotting cars. Your GranTurismo is the 'S' version. Sound so good don't they?!

Yes I find cars not too much:

but more:

In Luxembourg.

However: Almost no Lamborghinis, very few Rolls Royces; but plenty of BMW, Audi, Porsche, Bentley, Aston Martin, Maserati and the exceptional very special car (missed recently a shot at a Renault spider coming from the other side).

And I keep extending my wish list for people spotting out there:
1) Tata Nano (will have to wait till 2012 to have it here)
2) Tabant
3) Škoda 120 S/130 RS (Sport/Rallye cars)

Hello, Nismo Skyline

That is a new International Semi Truck.

 

[Vince_Fiero]

NISM0_SKYLINE I like the Yellow Gran Turismo, never saw that color here. The nice little Audi looks alot like the company car I'm trading in on Monday.

Today, first I saw a car on the opposite side of the motorway, that I identified as a Tesla, but no chance to get to my camera.

I thought it would have been the thing of the weekend.

Then suddenly I see a Rolls Royce coming up, so grab the camera and shoot this:

Wait a minute the Rolls changed into a Ferrari 612??

Next time I can take a pic I get this:

The Rolls-Royce Phantom Ghost, with the Ferrari 612 and in between an open California.

Trying to recuperate from the exitement, I see this coming:

A Ferrari 458 Italia, which I expected to see in summer, but not this soon after release:

It was about lunch and I needed to get of at the next stop hoping they would have stopped too and yes there they were:

I tried to get in postion to have some more shots, but they were leaving already so ended up with these:

A bit later I saw a Rolls-Royce Silver Seraph (Some claim Bentley Arnage)), next time I post there are not a lot of Rolls-Royces around here, I'll have to be more carefull.

Some other less interesting things on the motorway:

Maserati Quatroporte

A copper coulored 911 4S

A Cadillac Escalade (yes common in some parts of the world, but not here):

P.S.: For Stijn, it all happened in Belgium today (but some number plates were car dealership, some Luxembourgish, some Dutch, some Swiss)

==============================================

Yes Nismo M3 4-Doors, when I spotted one a while ago, I also went to look it up to see if it sold that way, it is.

I don't think I've ever seen a yellow one out on the roads either. Yes that Audi looks a lot like the one I saw, just mine had some sportier parts, nice looking car though.

That's cool about the 4 - door M3 because I've been tricked by fakes before and I don't remember seeing to many 4 -doors.

Congrats on the 458, it may have been a part of a dealership convoy, but it was out driving 👍. I was supposed to see one in the Gumball, but I never showed up.

Hello, Nismo Skyline

That is a new International Semi Truck.

Ah, yes thank you. I remember seeing it a few times last year then it went away until these past few days.

A few more from the trip home.

Old Dodge Coronet

Uncovered Volt

 

[Cano]

congratulations Vince for the first street spot of a Italia in the entire thread. Choco intercookie.

Nice Coronet, Nismo (: the Evo and R32 from Toronto are awesome too. And that International Semi is reallly appealing to me :0

 

[Boffin]

....and your Phantom is actually a Ghost. 👍

 

[Keef]

And the Silver Seraph is actually an Arnage.

That International Lonestar semi truck is pretty awesome. I haven't seen one yet, they're fairly new and totally amazing.

 

[Vince_Fiero]

I was quite surprised again to see this one before summer:

Mercedes Benz SLS AMG

_________________________________________________________________________

Phantom / Ghost => Was in doubt, tend to agree most probably Ghost? But don´t ask me why, not a lot of Rolls Royces around here.
Silver Seraph/Arnage => Was in doubt, tend to disagree. Silver Seraph since I saw the front and believe to remember the Lady. Very close to each other from the back I believe.

The one above is definitely an SLS AMG.

 

[Rue]

OK, you win! 458 followed by SLS AMG. Game over. What an amazing spot(s)!

 

[Omnis]

I saw Vontae Davis make a left turn in front of me while I was pulling into school. He was leaving practice or something (Dolphins HQ is across the street from my school) in a black drop-top Gallardo.

 

[astrosdude91]

I saw this at the local Mobil gas station. It's the 426 version. 1 of only 135!!

This car can easily go for $350,000!

 

[Northstar]

Just glad to see it getting used as it's intended.👍

Also @ the SLS👍👍

 

[NotThePrez]

Just glad to see it getting used as it's intended.👍

And that would be emptying the owners pockets at the pump?

But Seriously, a 458, an SLS AMG, and an even rarer Superbird? You guys are real lucky.

 

[Fyshokid]

Wow, today I was in Monaco and Cannes. In Monaco I saw a Maybach, Rolls Royce Phantom and Bugatti Veyron parked right by eachother, two SLR McLaren's (one 722 and one roadster) pretty close to eachother. I also saw three Tesla Roadsters parked by eachother amongst alot of other cars.

In Cannes I saw one of those ridiculous blue FAB Design Maybachs.

Expect pictures on Friday. I probably won't be able to upload them before then.

 

[Vince_Fiero]

OK, you win! 458 followed by SLS AMG. Game over. What an amazing spot(s)!

There is no competition, it is just for fun and sharing the fun.
I did never expect these spots when I started: Mosler MT900, and within a few weeks of delivery Porsche 911 Sports Classic, Ferrari 458, Mercedes Benz SLS AMG. I´m impressed myself and this during a world wide financial crisis .

But I did like these spots of the last days just as much:

Alfa Romeo Alfetta GT (from the 70ies) on the way back from the summer house:

See also the splendid example of Luxembourgish views:

We call this a Jeep Willy Willy (I believe it is genuine):

Opel Manta GT (The real one from the film mentioned before), while trying to spot fancy cars in Waterloo, driving from my parents to the summer house:

@ Fyshokid: Yes Monaco, etc have super spots. I actually discussed planning a trip there just for spotting with my partner recently.

@ astrosdude91 Super spot, this car looks like history coming to live.
