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

[GTMail]

FIA GT Zolder 20 April 2013

With Poolhaas as you can see from the pictures His camera quality really shows of. /jealous

Size does matter:

Sweet shots! I was at the Long Beach GP and tried to get some pictures but I got a whole lotta fence... I'll still post some from the show though.
There were only a couple of rides worth taking a picture of IMO.

Going to the Mini dealer is always a pleasure because it's next to a Bentley dealer that doubles as an used Lamborghini-AMG Mercedes-Rolls Royce-Ferrari -Aston-Martin dealer. Seeing the new Minis is a treat too, of course.

An R8 of some sort, not sure if V8 or V10.

An older Gallardo Cabriolet, a Bentley Azure and a new Continental GT.

LFA Nurb

GT40

AC 378 GT Zagato

A bunch of boring stuff that always ends up here in the backround too(way too many R8s, Ferraris and GTRs). That green Cobra is an LHD AC.

 

[Madertus]

^That looks like one painfully awesome event! 👍

 

[ilikewaffles11]

Doog, your R8 is a V8.

It was rightfully sweet! I was more in for the racing and drifting though.

Just another day at the local drag strip. This is nothing to me, see this stuff all the time.

Yes this includes a Shelby GT350H Mustang, 427 Yenko Camaro and a 1968 Corvette Stingray Mako Shark Convertible with a supercharged LT-1.

I don't kid when I say its loaded up here. All over the street in the summer. And theres a lot more pictures were these came from.

 

[Crumpet]

Awesome post

 

[nealcropper]

The only cars I stopped flicking through for was the Plymouth Superbird and the Sunbeam.

Call me a dick, but all old American cars bore me. I have no interest.

Although, that doesn't mean anyone else doesn't, so I am sure there is a whole lot if awesomeness in there.

You couldn't have described what I just did any better.

Anyhow, I have some pictures of the new QP I'll post up here in a bit!

 

[Slash]

Shame, there was some rare stuff in there. That's alright though, I know they don't appeal to everyone. I have cars just like everyone else that I don't like yet others do so I understand.

 

[xXKingJoshXx]

Epic post Slashfan! I loved all of those! (except that Chrysler 300 )

Some really beautiful cars there.

 

[Slash]

Thanks =P

Figured I might as well back up my claim that the area is full of them. I saw probably 8-9 more on the way home as well. Consisted of a '65 Mustang, '76 Trans Am, 2 '75 Corvettes, '70 GTO, another '76 Trans Am, '69 Firebird, and a bunch of new Mustangs and to top it off a new Camaro SS 1LE that was in red. Wish I could have gotten pics though.

And I guess own of the guys that was at the shop yesterday has a Ford 427 from the '60s in his garage...and they don't know yet but there is a HUGE possibility it may be a Cammer. Can't wait to find out. That guy has all kinds of cars. Got a 429 Thunder Jet too.

Not going to call you a dick as you hit the nail on the head with the last line. Not really sure why people see fit to add posts like yours, thanks for sharing with us though. I would understand better if they were all very common mundane cars but they clearly aren't, they just don't happen to be your cup of tea. But then Slashfan didn't post them specifically for you, so that's OK.

So went to the Jaguar dealer and Lexus dealer.

The owners cars, which I posted in the other thread but may as well post here aswell.

His new F12 Berlinetta




His new Vanquish




Group shot (I have pics of the others from before)


XKRS Conv he's had forever


E63 AMG, could use a wash


LFA at the Lexus dealer. The owner bought it but apparently will sell it for the right price. They said something about how it's the only two tone one in the US or something.




ISF


While drooling over the LFA, a sales person let us look at the owners newly delivered 458 Spyder.




Also, Cars and Coffee is tomorrow! And this time I'll be there for more than 25 minutes.

'dat 458

 

[tronrider345]

'dat 458

It's mine now sorry.

 

[Crumpet]

His new F12 Berlinetta


His new Vanquish

Lucky guy! Just imagine signing the order form for both of them at the same time, then wondering which one will arrive first. That there is a new level of excitement

Well, I'll try not to take offence at you calling me a dick. But.......

I seen fit to post that, because I had an opinion, and wished to express it. Much the same as you just did.

As for the cars, to me at least, they all look alike, with exception to the Plymouth and the Sunbeam. They all have big engines, and the steering wheel may as well be replaced with a slice of black pudding, for all the good it does.

As I said, it's just my opinion, and I thought that was the point in a forum, to express one's opinion.

Hmmmmm, so that's what I feels like to be wrong....

 

[Carlos]

Maybe you could share your thoughts about the cars that do interest you That's what most people do.

It's the only two-tone example period, now that production has stopped. If I remember correctly, the price for this because it's a 1-of-1 like the green LF-A is expected around $450,000.

Wow, sweet event. Big variation of cars is always good.

Never seen a Pantera myself before, looks nice along with alot of others

 

[mp10]

awesome post there, the 288GTO was my favorite from the lot. 👍

EDIT: And that E-Type

 

[Slash]

I found the black Bronco to be the most interesting other than the A/C Cobra, which by that model I think had a 289 in it.
