Hmmm. I don't think I'll be entering this week.
We don't get license plates from any distance here, so I'm out of that category.
As for the red car - the only remotely valuable red car I've sen is a ~$NZ100,000 E-Type Jag. Easily trumped by a near new Porsche or Ferrari.
Fast blue car - ain't seen anything special in that department either.
Can't even remember the fourth category...
Maybe I'll have more joy next week.

Why not submit anyway just to find out!?

I've had a hard time finding everything, but I plan on posting on Monday. I was really mad the other night because I found a good example of a fast blue car, but then I remembered the modification clause, and I had to give up...

No one's done so yet... although we do have two good blue contenders.

Similar to daan's post, this isnt that blue but it does 0-60 in 4.5sec
You can tell its not silver by comparing to the silver civic and the silver LS430 beside it
ok I got a pic of another sky-blue car. And this one is faster

Hmph.
Well today I saw a blue turbo Porsche (that'd be faster than a 360, right?) and a red late 90's Porsche.
Didn't have time to get a photo of either, even if I did have my camera.
Roll on next round!

My bad, I didn't get a good look at it and the two look very similar. It definitely loses to the 360 then.

Okay, my entries:
MOST VALUABLE RED CAR:
2003 50th Anniversary Chevrolet Corvette; About $50K brand-new, priceless in the hearts of many...
FURTHEST LICENSE PLATE:
New Mexico to Grand Rapids: Nearly 1500 miles
OUT-OF-PLACE:
A 1993 VW Fox GL Coupe; Extremely rare, furthermore in good shape, and its parked outside my Job.

OK, I'll get my finals up.
I was away for the weekend and didn't get any spots.
Most valuable red car - R32 Skyline, non-GTR.
Furthest License Plate - Victoria, BC, to New Mexico: 2927 KM.
And that's about it, folks.
(PS, I was calculating from Victoria, BC to Roswell, NM because it was generally in the center of the state, and on the map.

Most out-of-place car- Gallardo in front of a Mazda dealer.
Now, that's not quite right is it Danny
That Gallardo is obviously in a car park next door to a Mazda dealer. JCT600 Mazda in Leeds i believe - which happens to be next door to JCT600 Ferrari/Maserati/Lotus/Lamborghini dealership. So your Gallardo is outside a Lambo dealer - ie not 'out-of-place' at all

Depends where you stand Dan.
:/
Also, there's a Lambo dealer there? I missed that altogether!

MOST VALUABLE RED CAR: who autocrosses a 360? Some wealthy Michigander, and Joey D got the spot. I personally can't tell the year or transmission of that car, but 360 Modenas are averaging $142k these days, easily beating the (admittedly valuable) Skyline.
MOST OUT OF PLACE VEHICLE: who autocrosses the largest car since stagflation? What the hell kind of autocross was this? Joey D gets this one too - anyone who's ever stood next to - or fully laid down perpendicularly inside of - a Caprice Estate knows why.
LONGEST DISTANCE: western states came up big this week; who knows why. I'd submit that Bubble Bunny's 300C SRT-8 spot could be a contender in 'most out of place,' too, but it wins this on virtue of distance. Who knew mormons liked speed?
FASTEST/QUICKEST BLUE CAR: I've seen silver 360 Modenas, and I've seen light blue ones, and Bubble Bunny got a photo of a blue one, edging out daan's 911 spot. When I created the category I was thinking 'true blue' but I suppose you can't argue with technicalities.
So Joey 2, Bubble Bunny 2 - for a tie! I'll let you guys figure out what happens now...
And by the way Danny - nice try attempting to fool us on the Gallardo spot.
