Not out yet! I can at least snap an early 90's Benz here in the apartments if it comes down to it.

I met a pro ball player at a local restaurant and felt the same way. In the end I said screw it and took a pic of his bently GT (as I think its called, a little coupe bently), never heard from him, I guess he don't care. ;)
 
I really don't car either. If you don't want people taking pictures of your car, then don't take your car out in public.

I could have asked for permission but they owner didn't look like a happy chap, so forget it. I don't want to get into trouble, really! :scared:

I agree with astros. But then again, I don't want to get into trouble and acused for this, that, this. I'm still young and don't want to go to the police station, what more the jail :lol:

I already got some shots, so I'm happy. I'll try even better next time!
 
Well hey, this won't be the only round. There are plenty more to come. So if you don't get everything, there's always next time. 👍
 
My pics are up a few pages back without any changes. Can't believe I'm having trouble finding an old Mercedes. They're usually all over the place.

Yeah mate. I am not going to add anything anymore because it's already too late to do so. The JDMs are nowhere to be found and neither the Golfs. Until the next round! :cheers:
 
And lastly, here's my old Mercedes. That makes everything for me, aside from the bonus car.

It was fun!
 
Mind the double post, but the leaderboard is up, and the winners for round one are myself and Joey D. Joey D and NISM0_SKYLINE both receive a point for most expensive Ford with the GT. And oskierox get's the point for oldest Mercedes with a W113 SL Class circa 1963.

Normally if we have a tie for winner, I'll just flip a coin to decide who get's to pick the categories for the next round. But since I don't want to pick again either way, Joey D can go.
 
Woo, third! You did miss spell my name :p

Mercedes is a nice winner, great looking car.
 
Was wondering how the winner is determined, anyways. Say someone finds every car on the list, but someone who finds an old Mercedes or Ford doesn't find them all. It's a little confusing since some categories are specific and some aren't.
 
Round 2
Due: Friday April, 20th

1.) Any street legal electric vehicle (hybrids and plugin hybrids do not count).

2.) The vehicle with the worse power to weight ratio. (Measured in horsepower per pound.) (Must be a car, pick-up or van, no semi-trucks or other specialized commercial vehicles.)

3.) That bling bling! Any vehicle with 20"+ aftermarket "dub" style rims. (OEM wheels will not count)

4.) The green (as in the colour) vehicle with the most torque. (Measured in ft. lbs.) (Must be a car, pick-up or van, no semi-trucks or other specialized commercial vehicles.)

5.) Doppelgänger, find another vehicle that that looks like your own. Please provide a pic of your own vehicle if we don't know what you drive. (Vehicles must be the same year (or generation), colour, and trim level as your own, modifications will not affect the outcome)

Bonus Car

MINI Countryman Cooper S

**The S has a that additional scoop thing on the lower part of the grill, the Countryman Cooper does not. Hope that helps!
