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

[ilikewaffles11]

@ilikewaffles11 Love the first gen Camry! My dad had one! Unfortunately I was too young to remember much of it, other than it was the maroon/brown color. Out of his car history though, I wish I could find a Nissan Maxima wagon...

Glad someone else appreciates it! Pretty much the EXACT same story here, parents had one as well in that exact color, and I don't remember it much. Scary how similar that is.

Am i the only one who loves a good slightly blurry or shaky "car spot" pic? it just adds authentication, A really sharp HD pic just looks like a magazine took it or a something along those lines, Kills the Spotting nature of the picture for me,

like catching the car off guard lol.

Some disagree but I fully agree.

1950 or so

996 4S... I thought this would be a normal day, as it was only getting up to 52 degrees today, so at this point, this was still good... and very pretty!

all Astons look the same to me, unless I can see a badge... and if I can't see the badge on the front, I assume it's a Ford Fusion... what is this, again?

stopped to pee again, and saw this going through the wash through the inside window, began to chat with the owner who was watching it go through. not just some sort of aero kit, but custom exhaust, too, holy hell gurgly and barky and loud! must be a hoot to drive! 1 day old to the new owner, too!

then I spied something in the distance that I HAD to get closer to (did get a rubbish long distance shot first, though, just in case...) fortunately it parked for me, Dino 308 GT4, as seen on Top Gear!

and that'll do it... ended up leaving out at least one each Bentley, Mas, AMG, Fisker, C7, many Porsches because photo quality or wasn't sure it wasn't a repeat... just an amazing day

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

Aston is a Vanquish.

thanks! and think I fixed the two errors above now...

Saturday was amazing for like 7 people.
YOU GET A LIKE, AND YOU GET A LIKE, EVERYBODY GETS A LIKE!

 

[jeffgoddin]

Thanks, I know it's late for a lot of folks, or even very early for others, and we don't get many people either here or on Flickr that are in between... Australians maybe? Rage Racer? But, to be honest, I woke up, couldn't resist and skipped work (boss is pretty flexible so far...) and spent about 8 hours and 160 miles driving around, then like 4 hours editing and uploading and posting...

Actually, I'm going to repost this for emphasis, despite the SLR being knocked off my list, this is by far my favorite photo from today...

Doesn't anyone hate it when this happens? Biker came out of nowhere

Edit: and just saw a neat car used for advertising. It's a client from where I work but haven't seen the car until now.

In my defense, they're not that sharp.

 

[Beeblebrox237]

@jeffgoddin So. Much Win. By the way, your first Bentley is a Continental GT Speed, and the Aston is a first gen Vanquish.

Is that a good thing?

 

[jeffgoddin]

No. But I think those things are neat. Still, never felt like taking a picture of one, let alone posting it here...

 

[ildd]

I think so.
Side note- that's classified as a SUV

 

[Zyla]

No. But I think those things are neat. Still, never felt like taking a picture of one, let alone posting it here...

And you can just get outta here.

 

[Dagger311]

No. But I think those things are neat. Still, never felt like taking a picture of one, let alone posting it here...

Ah well, it's been slow, and they are rare down here, so I thought someone may get a kick out of it.

I think so.
Side note- that's classified as a SUV

If that's an SUV, then my Dads' rogue is a truck.

 

[Doog]

I think so.
Side note- that's classified as a SUV

Just like how the PT Cruiser is a light truck.

I don't know what that is, but it's not stock. The E28 was only ever a 4 door, but that does look like an E28 apart from that. I love it to death, though.
