Did You See Anything Good Today? 'Event and Showroom Edition'

[shadow0460]

I saw a Charger with a Rumble Bee emblem a couple days ago. I rooled up next to him. We looked at each other's rides (mine is an F-150 STX 4x4 with 5.0 badging), waited for the light to change, and just drove on normally.
Also saw a Corvette C7 the other day and a Ford Ranchero for sale today.

Visited the British Motor Museum today. Remarkable place with a lot of one offs and concept cars. Great fun.

Edit: also if anyone is intrigued as to what's there and you got a spare hour to scroll: https://www.britishmotormuseum.co.uk/online-collections

Ah yes, the Peninsula TVR. I still remember driving this thing in V8 Supercars/TOCA 3! It's iconic to me.

 

[Roo]

Found a Daihatsu Midget in the paddock at Brands Hatch today.

 

[Northstar]

Mini with a v8.

 

[Nico_Ble99]

Saw this clean R33 GT-R V-Spec at a meet yesterday.

Had a goot chat with the owner, it's basically an OEM+ build. Around 400 hp, only a few upgrades and optimizations to "make the car last".

 

[RandomCarGuy17]

A car show today, I finally got a chance to test the camera on my new Samsung Galaxy S23. I saw some neat stuff at this event, but it's probably not the best car show I went to.

Note: The pictures aren't in exact order I took them in. I kinda just wanted to go all over the place.

Spoiler: cars

BMW e24 6-Series

Chevrolet Malibu

I actually kinda like how this blue 2nd Gen Camaro was modded.

But the normal look on this Z/28 is good too.

Technically the 2nd Ferrari 612 Scaglietti I've seen ever.

Jeep Grand Wagoneer

Pig-nosed BMW M4 Competition Package

Though that wasn't the only BMW M car there, because this Z3 M Roadster was there and it's in a nice color.

BMW e30 3-Series

One of the Land Rover Defenders I saw there.

A Toyota MR2 Supercharged picture I took later in the show. I took another picture prior to this, but I like this one more as there's no car obscuring it.

Also Miatas.

Though one of the Miatas is an Eunos Roadster.

BMW M5 G30

Mitsubishi Delica next to the M5.

Lamborghini Huracan LP580-2, I sadly only caught it leaving the show.

The opposite of sadly however, this Diablo was there. Marking the 3rd Diablo I've seen ever.

Porsche 928

Other than the Diablo, this was my favorite at the show. An Audi Quattro.

Toyota Supra Turbo A80

and later in the show this 5th Gen Supra showed up in a Spiderman paint scheme.

Um, more BMWs.
BMW 850i

BMW e92 M3 Coupe

BMW M2 f87

Moving back across, a Nissan 180SX.

Porsche 718 Cayman GT4

Ferrari 458 Italia

Dodge Viper SRT-10 Coupe

Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat

A Challenger SRT Demon appeared later in the show.

Dodge Ram SRT-10, I haven't seen one of these since last year.

Mitsubishi Lancer Evo IX MR Edition, I finally see a stock one that's not in gray.

The other Land Rover Defender I saw.

1st Gen Ford Broncos

Suzuki AWD Van, don't know anything about it.

Ferrari California

1968 Chevrolet Chevelle

1969 Chevrolet El Camino

Mercedes-AMG GT4, another car I only caught leaving the show.

Mercedes-AMG SL55

Mercedes-AMG GT-S

Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 1LE

Audi S4 B9

Another Ferrari 458 Italia appeared later

Okay, my last car leaving show picture, an Aston Martin Vantage. Which I realized now is a F1 Edition, I didn't even know they were selling those here.

High octane Detroit highlights include a SE30 and Saleen S7

 

[Aerocoupe]

Here's a couple of stand outs that have shown up at a local restaurant that holds weekly shows every Saturday evening.

First was this lovely '99 Midnight Purple II R34 GT-R V-Spec. First R34 I've seen in the metal, and the paint is definitely something that can only be fully appreciated up close. Was also a nice change of pace from the usual boomer-mobiles that make up the majority attendees.

And a few weeks later this nice little ST185 All-Trac Turbo was present. Sadly haven't caught the R34 again, but hopefully I'll see it around this summer.

Crazy how this car still looks modern amongst all the current supercars.

I’ve only seen two one twin turbo and this one. This is apparently chassis 001 or close to it. Lingenfelter had a twin turbo but he sold it a few years ago. I haven’t seen any other ones besides these two, both were the same red color too.

 

[ZGBox]

From the 6h of Monza!

Spoiler: Bonus pics: badly taken pictures of some hypercars in action

They’re nearly everywhere.

We don't get the HiMedic here in Australia. We do get the HiAce though but I didn't see any.

From the Jaguar event at the British Motor Museum:

One Le Mans winner...

Two Le Mans D Types...

And not one, not two but THREE XJ220s!

 

[SPhilli911]

Sorry for poor quality photo, I used my mobile phone.

Recent car show at Lime Rock Park I saw this 996 GT2 with "classic vehicle" plates (20+ years old to get that plate in Connecticut) and I feel old now.

Other notable cars are a rally Delta and Subaru 22B, which there can't be many of in the US:

 

[Northstar]

Saw this parked at Cedar Lake Speedway in Wisconsin, no clue if it's a real one (do they make replicas?) but either way it's still a beautiful car.

 

[sirjim73]

Kop Hill Climb was full of great vehicles today. Let's start with Porsches there to celebrate 75 years of Porsche...

 

[sirjim73]

Kop Hill Climb rally cars (sorry for the double post but car category is separate and also there's the photo upload limit):

And as there's one in EA WRC car list, the Hillman Avenger
