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

ildd · Sep 7, 2014

Because photos are too mainstream (and take 3x as long to upload)

RandomCarGuy17 · Sep 7, 2014

I had a few more cars to post, but I didn't feel like it yesterday. So, I'll post them today!

1956 Chevrolet Wagon. The front reminds me of the Ford Fairlane from that time period.

I think this might be my first 1974 Roadrunner seen.

My first Oldsmobile 88

Another Z31 300ZX that's also red.

A clean EG Civic

I saw this 300ZX twice within the last 2 weeks, but missed it both times.

A Supercharged C6 Corvette GS

NOVA!

A couple more GTOs

This is one that interested me, a track day modded Ford Focus.

Probably the first older Cadillac I've captured a pic of in a long time and it's long! It also seems to have hydralics on it.

Yay, a Mini showed up!

A track day built Nissan 240SX

A Corvair Wagon? Well, that's new to me.

An Impala equipped with hydralics.

The last C2 Corvette I saw there.

So yeah, it was a great car show and I'm definately glad I went to it. If it wasn't so hot outside and if I didn't have something important to do later; I probably would have stayed another hour at least and probably taken a few more pictures of other cars that were there.

I sure did!

Any day I see my favorite car is a good day.

New challenge, get video of them leaving.

Doog · Sep 7, 2014

As you can see, the show was rather empty since there were dust and thunderstorm warnings.

Arizonians for scale.

So nineties, it hurts (in a good way).

At that point I opted to leave, because the sky looked like this:

Yes it's time for more Cars and Coffee! Not a huge turn out, but good nonetheless.

I know I have pics of this already but I mean, just LOOK at it! It's so beautiful! It was even with the exotics!

The Ultima I posted a little while ago, this time with everything closed thank god!

Don't see these everyday

Jaguar S-Type R by ilikewaffles11, on Flickr

From Detroit on manufacturer plates oddly, don't know why it was in PA. Maybe some reps from Dodge taking it to a whole bunch of shows around the country or something?

Dodge Challenger R/T by ilikewaffles11, on Flickr

Dodge Challenger R/T by ilikewaffles11, on Flickr

Nice color

Audi R8 V8 by ilikewaffles11, on Flickr

This was awesome, definitely deserved a spot with the exotics I think! Very brown and for sale for 25K!

Buick Riviera by ilikewaffles11, on Flickr

Can't get enough of these new M3/4s

BMW M3 by ilikewaffles11, on Flickr

Lots of new DB9s showing up at each event

Aston Martin DB9 by ilikewaffles11, on Flickr

Tons of Vipers as well

Dodge Viper SRT10 by ilikewaffles11, on Flickr

First time seeing a 997.2 Turbo S hardtop, perfect :drool:

Porsche 911 Turbo S (997) by ilikewaffles11, on Flickr

Always love to see a 928! On phone dial rims no less!

Porsche 928S by ilikewaffles11, on Flickr

Rather nice Celica GT with some rally mods and Team Toyota Europe stickers and the like. Parked next to my dad's Alltrac later on, unfortunately though has the stock 2.2 5SFE motor, still nice though.

Toyota Celica GT by ilikewaffles11, on Flickr

These are relatively rare no? Can't remember seeing one anytime lately.

Pontiac Firehawk by ilikewaffles11, on Flickr

Chevrolet Camaro Z28 by ilikewaffles11, on Flickr

Obligatory photo of my car, headlights stayed up today.

Surprisingly, I was the only Supra in the whole show today. There's usually quite a few MK4s to join me.

Toyota Supra by ilikewaffles11, on Flickr

Glutorange, yes please

Audi TTS by ilikewaffles11, on Flickr

Chevrolet Corvette Split Window by ilikewaffles11, on Flickr

Gahhh stupid overly bright sky ruining this shot

Ford Fiesta ST by ilikewaffles11, on Flickr

Another clean FD, though those lug nuts drive me insane.

Mazda RX7 by ilikewaffles11, on Flickr

Odd seeing a yellow SRT10 Ram

Annnnnd this one is to dark :grumpy:

Mercedes SLS AMG by ilikewaffles11, on Flickr

Tried to get the color on this a little better than I did at that show in June. Didn't work. This picture doesn't do the color justice, it's absolutely beautiful.

MedigoFlame · Sep 8, 2014

Had a great end to August with the Lime Rock Park "Sunday in The Park" Concours event. First time seeing some amazing cars up close.

There's just too much to put up with little time being busy. Enjoy it!

I see those michigan manufacture plates on a lot of cars during test drives. I don't know why they use them.

Well I'm assuming that it's somebody from Dodge who's traveling around to various shows in various states showing off the new Challenger, as that's pre production is it not?

I just find it odd how they'd show up to a show in PA that's a good size but not like a HUGE thing.

knoxviue · Sep 8, 2014

It wasn't today but yesterday at Caramulo Motorfestival

Porsche Carrera GT

Something from the US Army

Some pics from the Muscle car masters at Sydney Motorsport park on the weekend.

RandomCarGuy17 · Sep 13, 2014

Well, I decided to check out a car show that was taking place today in a town that was over an hour away from me and I managed to drive on the first highway I've seen with a speedlimit that was higher than 65mph. Anyway, the car show was smaller than I hoped, but I still saw a few great cars there. Well, Imma post 'em now!

A Custom '51 Ford

A couple of '55 Chevrolet Bel-Airs

Well, this is interesting! I don't normally run into old Volvos such as this one.

'70 Ford Mustang Vert

'69 Camaro SS, yay!

A Ford F100 that's apparently injected with Nitroes.

and a

I also stopped by a Dodge Dealer on the way home:

So yeah, the same Charger SRT-8 Super Bee from last time and my first time seeing the 2015 Challenger in person.

Crash · Sep 14, 2014

From M Car Day last weekend.

Sorry for crappy pic.

Doog · Sep 14, 2014

One of the nicer MKIVs I've seen, though it can't quite match that green one from Cars & Coffee.

The owner of this Rapide and his wife approached me as I was photographing the car and asked if I'd like to sit in it. Of course, I obliged, and they let me start it up and blip the throttle a couple times in sport mode. Excellent car!

The owner of this 911 happened to be near and noticed me near the Rapide and asked me a couple questions about it. She was so surprised that Aston-Martin were making a four door!

I wonder if the tire gets very hot.

Don't be such a...

Such panel gaps.

That F350's hot.

*joins a Top Gear Test Track lobby*

Headlamp washers are the coolest ****, even if you're hardly gonna use them.

Sketchiest NSX ever.

What can I say, I like Civics.

Gotbeefboy564 · Sep 14, 2014

I liked the last gen Rapide but I hate the grille on the new one.

@Doog I think I need a new pair of pants now.

Dat Brat and E55 AMG Wagon!! :drool:

Edit: Some dealer pics, Jaguar and Porsche/Audi/Merc

Interesting color on this F-Type

ZR1

XKR Convertible

This was in kind of crappy shape, the previous (I'm assuming) owner really did a poor job taking care of it...

Just look at this curb rash :crazy:

Old Quattroporte

S8 V10

RS5 Cabrio

ildd · Sep 18, 2014

Will have many, many pics uploaded to the regular thread... in the meantime, here's most of what I saw on Sunday at the third annual Lamborghini Festival. Now with exhaust sounds!*

Didn't get to drive this one... Owner of the dealership I work at's 1970 Dodge Coronet. But I did get to detail it.

And my first time detailing a customer's SRT Viper. But didn't get to drive it.

RandomCarGuy17 · Sep 20, 2014

Some of my favorites from a VW Car Show I went to this morning:

My first Porsche 356 Speedster

I've seen a kit car that wasn't a Shelby Cobra or a Ford GT40 for once. XD

ilikewaffles11 · Sep 21, 2014

Small gallery from a cruise in today, tomorrow I'm going to a Chevy show so expect those at some point.

This wasn't really in the cruise but was sitting near it, I want it so badly. Very nice shape :drool:

I went to a weekly Exotics car meet yesterday, and these were a couple of the highlights:

DeTomaso Pantera

Look at all the space back there!

Porsche 356

Ferrari 330

Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint

And probably the most interesting thing of all there:

Aston Martin DBR2/2

1 of 2 in the world. The only one in the US. Yes, that's a cool $10+ million sitting right there.

TVR Tasmin 350i (best spot of the day)

Just a very clean foxbody and I don't think I see these often in silver.

Another vehicle I've seen in my neighborhood apparently, a Ford F-100 Custom

2012 Ford Mustang Boss 302

Aww, I wish this lightning F150 didn't have those silly chrome rims and that grill.

and I'll end this post with a Fairlane Custom (well, it's being called a 300 Custom on the entry sheet).
