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

[jeffgoddin]

Damn Dac, looks like you found a great overpass to stand on and just wait for awesome cars to come to you. There is no place like that within 500 miles of me at least!

Maserati

M3

a Porsche I don't remember seeing before, a 968 I believe

Delorean, been a long time!

and then, I'm like, OMG, an SVX! Looks like hell, but still, it's the first one I've ever seen!

But, before I can get back in the truck, I realize I've just stumbled upon the Ohio SVX meetup spot, because 5 parking spots further up here's another, much nicer one!

What started as a slow day had turned rather interesting!

Final capture, Z car

So, I was pretty happy with the day as I was getting back close to the farm, and then the whole day went to **** when I missed the big fish passing at 55mph... Arrgghh! Some 50's Porsche roadster racer with super cool decals all over like something unique and special. Foo! Okay, just checked, it was a 356 of course, and I've already captured one here so I guess it's no big deal, but man it looked cool going by.

Paul, I was there that day and I was standing a few bridges further towards Central than you. I have pics of exactly the same cars including the Western guys in the Porker...

Nice SVX Jeff, always wanted to try one of them out.

 

[MedigoFlame]

Great spottings! Another small correction, that Porsche "968" is actually the 944. ^_^;;; Like the Delorean and the SVX. For some reason the SVX has been pretty controversial in it's styling. Some saying it's one of the ugliest cars, but I do like how different it is. Found one on craigslist in my state, so tempted to....possibly look into it.

Arty shot of a Scag at speed, thought it was quite nice that the only part of the photo in focus was the main detail of the big Ferrari.

[FordMKIVJ5]

Spotted this fantastic beauty on my way to the shops on my day off...for sale for £1500 too! So tempting, need a loan

[PICS]

I love MG Midgets. Looks like such a clean example too.

 

[Racedude]

Found these yesterday:

Datsun 280ZX

VW Kombi (Type 2):

As I said before, I have many more in my phone, but I can't them up just yet.

P.S.: Viva Mexico.

 

[Dac_Xint]

At the plate on the silver 993.

Almost HUBAHUBA

P.S.: Viva Mexico.

(In news anchorman voice) This photo was taken of the suspect just minutes before agents arrived and seized a sizable amount of illegal substances.

Nice panel, Racedude. They're much harder to find than regular Transporters.

[jeffgoddin]

Sweet 2002!

This post is a mixed bag...

XJ12 with rims!

R32, my first

M3, the last that I'll post here unless I come across one that's exceptional. I'd never seen any M's until recently, but now it's over a dozen M3's, and three today... now I'll have to work on finding an M5 or an M1 (do that have an M1?) Oh yeah, Ferrari in the background, but I posted that car previously. Still nice to see it.

Almost home, I was turning a corner and caught something that looked like a convertible Beetle out of the corner of my eye. Did a double-take, no, that's not a Beetle, have no idea what it is, better go see. '51 Crosley Super Sport!

Amiable owner comes out (as I'm in his drive) and as we chat I notice a couple more in his garage. Nash Metro:

And a '27 Model T, with half it's owner:

Finally, Caliente, needing some TLC:

PS, for bonus points, what kind of vehicle do I drive? Notice the mud on my tires? Yeah, I'm a farmer, and it's been raining for weeks, my field's a mudpit. Arrgghh!!!

 

[Rue]

Brilliant pick n mix as usual Jeff! What's the betting that's the first and last time we see a Crosley Super Sport in this thread?!

BMW 2002 by - Icy J -, on Flickr

IcyJ, great find! Got all excited at first but looking at the body-kit more closely it seems a bit odd. The flares are fine by me but I don't like the fibreglass skirts. Wheel arches look like this...

Tell us you took more pics...

I feel almost embarrassed to post such a mundane car in a 993 Cab. but should give the post some content...

[Cano]

Great post Goddin! That guy sure has a stash, the Crosley is very very rare. Also, that 2002 is very awesome, though I concur with Rue, those sideskirts look way off.

 

[Rue]

Btw, like the plate on the M3 Bimmer Jeff. Didn't catch a look at the driver did you...?

Now, here's something you don't see often (excuse the stupidly high-exposure). A luxury Japanese mini-van in matte grey, with leather quilted panels, AP-racing brakes and a pink interior. All wrapped up in a Spiderman theme. I like it...

... sue me.

Is it possible to keep your car too clean?


Porsche 997 Targa by R-W-P, on Flickr3

Few more while I'm at it. Too much post-pro? Snapped them out of the front window of a very bouncy bus.

Okay, not today, but last time I was in Monaco / Cote D'Azure:

 

[ScouserInExile]

And some more:

 

[ScouserInExile]

And again:

 

[ScouserInExile]

This one was slightly odd, because it was parked in an horrendous area of Manchester, where I was worried about leaving the car I paid £800 for:

 

[ScouserInExile]

And me sat in quite an interesting car:

my wife had a go in this one:

 

[jeffgoddin]

Goddin, you drive a ford F-150 9th gen

The Murcielago is still one of the sexiest exotics ever made.

 

[xNEVER-ONEx]

Its because it has arguably one of the greatest profiles on a production vehicle ever. During its time, I think it was the lowest, and widest production car.
