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

[ilikewaffles11]

I go by this dealer every morning on the bus, and something unusual caught my eye so I decided to finally go check it out.

E39 M5

This is what caught my eye, I never knew that there was an S6 with a V10.

RS4

Seen this Model S here a few times, thought it was gone

And an E93 M3

Model S again

Friday night cruise in. There are finally a lot of cars there. Before the weather wasn't nice enough.

 

[disinfected]

You guys are going to be in for a treat when I get these pictures up from a car show I randomly happened across this afternoon. Especially if you like a little car called Enzo Ferrari.

 

[McLaren]

A 650S was there as well.

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

Quit teasing and post the damn pics.
Saw this 1/4000 top banana Daytona at a Dodge dealer.

 

[Doog]

Whoever owns this must be the original owner. The ugly dark red plate was killed off in the nineties (though you can still get it for an extra cost), but the fact that it has two separate stickers, rather than the single sticker they use now, leads me to believe this car's been in one person's hands for a while. #pedantry

And suddenly I regretted driving the Lexus today.

Surprisingly, it was a TDI.

I spy a radar detector.

I have no idea what this is.

Hood-pins are always fugly.

One of the better-looking aftermarket radios I've seen.

Here's part one of two. I'll upload all the American cars tomorrow. Which will probably break internets everywhere.

*Note: The lighting on cars located on the black/red carpet was way too bright, as a result stuff is wrong.


BMW Z8!


The cutest little car

Miata-based Ginetta

I thought this was real until I saw the V8 engine with a carbon fiver cover on it...

Absolutely loved this car in GT5

1800 HP Twin-Turbo Gallrdo

I'm so jelly. Even the NY Auto Show won't top Mecum.

I've only seen Mecum on TV a couple times, never been to an auction of any kind before. Best decision I ever made...

 

[GregTheStig]

Full disclaimer: I didn't see these two cars today, or even recently.

I took this at the 2010 Petit Le Mans at Road Atlanta and pretty much forgot about my photos from there until now, including this one. I dug up a crappy photo of two of the rarest cars I've ever seen. A Panoz Esperante GTR-1 road car (1 of 2 ever built) and one of the handful of racing GTR-1s behind it. Panoz is located just down the street from this track so I may have to see if I can catch a glimpse of this car again some day now that I have a good camera, but I thought you guys would want to see it anyway

I have another 178 pictures but they aren't what I would consider "good" (blurry, weird lighting, somewhat commonish cars, etc)

Yea, I made a thread on it in the auto News board.

I don't even think of opening this thread on my phone. I've got pretty good internet at home, and it still takes a while once the page starts to fill up with pictures. I usually open a new tab and come back once I see the page has stopped loading. I imagine we haven't seen the worst yet as more and more people head to car shows now that the weather is nicer.

That white Dodge has some weird fins on it... I don't think I've ever seen that before. Anyone know the model?

I guess it's a 1960 Dodge Matador.

I hate how long these pages get.

 

[RandomCarGuy17]

I hate how long these pages get.

Same here, it gets annoying to have to wait 3 minutes for the page to load and then scroll through the huge thing of pictures.

I'm afraid that I'm going to make this page longer. I decided to check out this BMW & Mercedes dealer that was in a nearby town. I was hoping to find a f10 M5 there, but alas no. I did see some other BMWs there and one or 2 other cars.

and I finally have pictures of an e63 M6

Hmmm, I think I've seen a M5 with M colors on the grill like this back in CT once.

An e93 M3 Convertible, a first for me.

Ah, another SW20 MR2. Nice! Well, except for the trunk.

Just noticed this right after the MR2. Another first.

Yet another first, a M235i

Closer look of it in the showroom.

Of course my first time seeing a 4-Series has to be a Convertible one.

and then I see a Coupe.

This is getting crazy. You guys seriously need to post your photos as thumbnails if you have 25 pics or more. It shouldn't take my laptop forever to load one page.

@GranTurismo916 (and everyone else) is that better? I can't do anything about @Doog though.

Damn this page is long.

@GranTurismo916 (and everyone else) is that better? I can't do anything about @Doog though.

I prefer it when people upload big photos so that I don't have to click every single one I want to look at, so I do the same when I post.
