It's not.

The hood that's got wouldn't fit over the V8 in a M3, so that's wrong along with the wrong mirrors, side emblem on the fender being too thin & the vent it stretches over isn't color matched. Add in the fender arches being too small in the front, as well as the front bumper being completely off.

Ah, really, thanks for clearing this.

Now, that's what I shot yesterday near my university:
Porsche Cayman S

Your 996 is actually a 997 :)
And did you black out the blue BMWs plate in photoshop or did the guy actually do it himself? Because I have noticed another plate in one of your photos that was taped over with something, don't know if that's common over there.
 
Oops, my bad, really 997 :ouch:
No, I didn't black out this BMW's plate. Perhaps it was removed, I don't know why.
As far as I know, some people tape a part of their plates to avoid being recognized by police cameras (in case of exceeding speed limits, for example). But if police stops them with the plate taped, they'll be fined $160. If a small part is covered with a white tape, this would be just less visible to a naked eye - and a camera can't notice that.

a few from the past couple days...

Supra!


GTO


FC


California Special


Monza? Spotted this same car last year, but only got a bad rear end shot and wasn't able to positively ID it. Cool car when it's driving.


CTS-V tuned by AMS? This guy drove like it anyway, but it may just be a badge...


and best of all, I spotted this today, my new car!




well, needs a spot of paint on the hood from sun, sat for a year. But, it's lived all its live in South Carolina until this April when the guy I bought it from found it and trailered it up to Ohio. Then he dropped a clutch/throwout bearing in it, master cylinder, timing belt, seals on both ends of the transmission, swapped all the fluids and greased her up, distributor/plugs/wires... etc. He made her run good. (Oh god, I'm already referring to it as a her. But what else would a Fairlady be?)

And then his sailboat cost him more than he had budgeted, and he needed to come up with $1900 this week. So, he sold it to me for $2500. With the promise that, if I ever get tired of it, he'll buy it back.

1986, NA with most of it's 160hp still in there I'd bet, 2550 lbs (and it may get lighter...) And with the same engine mount as the z32. Was well maintained, but has 186,000 miles on the odometer, so if the engine ever needs to be replaced... and I have $800 or so... I can drop a VG30DETT in this car.

And not a spot of rust on it, solid body, great springs. I got lucky!

Haven't posted in a little while. Mainly cause I haven't seen anything "Great" but a couple of good cars.

Someone was in the car so I expertly, like a spy, took a photo in my cars window of the BMW.

Also once you delete a photo from an iPhone is there a way to get it back? It seems I've deleted my picture of a Ferrari 430 at KFC.
 
From my recent visit of a Bavarian city, just spotted pictures on my SD card. :lol:

Audi SQ5 with a Porsche GT plate??? :lol:


Bentley Continental Flying Spur Cabriolet



BMW M6 Cabriolet

Just because it`s you, my friend. These are the worst pictures I`ve ever seen. :lol: And who`s the guy behind the bus shelter?
 
Well guys as I have said before I live not very far from downtown Detroit. So in result I see a lot of cool cars. Today, I got to see my favorite car from the Big Three driving down I-94.

That would be the new SRT Viper.
Such a beautiful car. I am so glad they got back to that real Viper look. I always hated the look of the 2003-2009 body style. So I am happy to see this car.
 
Really? I always hated the look of the original Viper. The car looked really small to me. The Viper GTS-R was always the good looking one to me.
 
This crazy clean C5 Z06 on CCW's Tuned by Leathal Performance. For those of you not familiar with Lethal Performance they tune some of the badest LS based cars in Texas and this one I'm sure was no exception...

Firebird/Camaro?


Tesla!

I'd seen this guy doing stupid **** on the road around here before, last summer (this is out by where my farm was, had to go out to get some stuff... also means I drove the F150 maybe for the last time so I could get a big freezer etc stuff that we needed but wouldn't add to the sale price of the farm.) That was a big parenthetical. Anyways, stupid drag Fox body, now for sale. Was pretty fast when I'd see him out, that's why I never got a pic before.


SVT F150, Hooah!


And just a couple weeks after seeing my first 500 Abarth (but only getting a crappy photo of it) I see another, this time sitting still!






and a nice old Chevy van, 1960's?

M3

I was making a right turn off of a major road when I saw him waiting in the turn lane to get on the road going the other way. So after making my right, I turned around and got into the turn lane he had been in, ended up getting cut off when he made it through a yellow light. After going a few intersection past where I lost track of him, I gave up and turned around.

Then I just glanced over and saw it sitting in the parkig lot where I took the photo.

This being richie highway, I had to turn around again to get on that side of the road.

Finally got the picture, though. I've always felt BMWs look much more impressive in person, and this definitely does. Gorgeous car.
 
On the way to pick my mom up from work in downtown Detroit. I pulled up to the intersection and I see this sitting next to me.

Very nice 1970 Dodge Challenger which I believe is Plum Crazy Purple in color. Beautiful sound that thing had.

Good place to seem some cars, despite some or most being... a waste, Saturday nights can really display some nice stuff. 👍 Then again I haven't been around there for a year or so at that time.
