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

[Crash]

Poor choice in wheel selection then. The normal color or black would look much better.

That looks kind of like a gray powdercoated wheel that's gotten dirty...

 

[Rue]

I think the M3 wheels were bronze.

 

[Cale]

The fronts are definitely dirty as hell.

Spotted this pink Ka recently in town:

I thought this was the "Did you see anything good today?" thread?

It's definitely the colour and not grime, I barely remember ever seeing a dirty car in Hong Kong in the ten or so years I've lived here.

Lol yea well the owner obviously thought it was a good car...

Fantastic posts as always. 👍 Sometimes, I can't believe how many nice cars you catch over in HK.

Not to be super-picky or anything, but I don't know if that's a real M5. I clicked on your flickr stream and I guess someone else has commented on that already. But like that person said, that E39 is suspect. It's got the wrong mirrors, it's sitting too low (for stock anyways, it looks like it's got coilovers), it's hard to see, but I think it might also be missing the little M5 badge on the black door stripe molding, and the interior rearview mirror and rear headrests may be the wrong shape.

If it's a clone though, nicely done one, it's pretty spot on to the real deal. If not, then Alpine White M5s are rare, and that's a fantastic spot. 👍

I like how there's also a Porsche Cayenne with mainland plates behind the BMW.

Throw back to Le Mans '06. I found this picture yesterday and it made me laugh, and want to go back to Le Mans and hunt all the parking lots.

That is actually a TVR 350, not a Sagaris. The styling of the 350 is not quite as aggressive as the Sagaris. Any TVR is a great spot though.

 

[NISM0_SKYLINE]

I realized that as soon as I posted it. I changed it on Flickr and thought it carried over, I just didn't bother checking back. I was hoping it would change though, I changed it as fast as I could too .

Yes, the Le Mans car parks are an event in themselves. So many incredible cars parked there it's unbelievable. You could spend a whole day in them.

What car is that?

I know, I've only come to realize that after we went. Back then I really wasn't into spotting as much, now I can't believe I didn't even bother looking.

What car is that?

It's an RX-7 with the Veilside body kit from F&F Tokyo Drift. I'm not really sure if I like it or not, it looks well done usually, but it just looks so weird, it's like some of the Re Amemiya cars.

 

[Cano]

wow, awesome post Rue!!! I love looking at the freaking hot tuning scene over there, it looks like japan some times. That black Chaser is awesome, and the EVOs, and your context-pictures really help.

 

[NISM0_SKYLINE]

It hit around 36 degrees today, so I wanted to go out and see what we could find, and we did pretty good. The best car I saw was an awesome Rat Rod, but wasn't able to get a picture.

astrosdude91, wicked post mate. Do you realise how rare the Turbo S is? They made less than 200 of those bad boys. They pumped out more than 400 HP too and that's a flat nose conversion. Deadly-cool piece of kit.

 

[Liquid]

My weekdaily 2 hour, 2 train journey to University was more enjoyable today when, having got off the train there was a purple Jaguar XKR parked in the Station Car Park. No pics I'm afraid, but it was marvellous.

Thanks! I was just told that is was a flat nose with those pop out headlights. So it makes it alot cooler spot.

It looks like a Toyota AE111

What's this?

Toyota Chaser?
