It's actually is a Z31 300ZX GT916, the brake lights on the red one are on the top while the 280zx picture has the brake lights on the bottom.



The first one kinda looks like a Virage to me and the 2nd Aston is a V8 Vantage. Great Spots though, I love the Gulf GT40!

I know it's a 300ZX. đź‘Ť

And I think the 1st Aston might be a DB9, but the Virage and DB9 look almost exactly the same. I'm not an expert at distinguishing Astons. :/
 
I've got an easy spot for you.:sly: There is always a black and yellow Bugatti Veyron in front of The House of Bijan on Rodeo drive if you ever go there. It was the store's owner(Bijan Pakzad) who recently suffered from a major stroke and passed. Now his son keeps it there as a memorial to him. ( This was directed to ilikewaffles.)
On topic my neighbor decided he wanted a Mclearen 12c Convertible. Look as he shows off to the fellow neighbors!

Actually, I had seen something about that and planned to search for it. If I remember correctly, it's on Rodeo Drive?
 
Yes it is. I remember the addres was 420 North too.
 
I was in the US last year; mainly New York City and some lost town in Connecticut called Farmington. Here's the best I saw there:

It can't be a DB9, DB9s have different headlights and front bumpers to the aston in that picture.
 
walking with my daughter and see this in the neighbourhood. pristine(as far as I could see on the outside) Renault

Correct. I see them quite frequently around here. Nothing special.

Ive seen two sitting still. Ever. And one if them was in someone elses photo. So it's defonitely rare around here.
 
Kingjosh your three "unmarked" similar looking cars are MGs, I think the first and third are MGBs (the last one is older or non-US-spec hence chrome bumpers) and the middle one a Midget.
 
One shot from last Friday and a few from earlier today:

Suzuki Kizashi. Not really special per se, but it's 1 of only... 3 Kizashis that aren't left sitting in a Suzuki dealership or forecourt in the UK, probably.

I also came across what I thought was the back end of an Evo V on my way home. Took a closer look and realised it was a Charisma with a body kit. :lol:

Ok cool, thanks. I think I'm going up in that area today so I'll search for it... I know I'm going up there at some point at least.
 
Nice find on the 456 đź‘Ť

The guy was driving it like a typical Mustang owner... normally I'd despise that, but you can't knock the sound of a Ferrari V8.

Too lazy to get a proper shot on this one, I guess, but it's only Turbo.

Typical mustang owners don't floor it at every stoplight.
 
If I had a car with a Ferrari V8, I'd drive like a maniac.

Found it. :p

However, along with pics I took with my camera I took one with my iPod hoping to upload it and share however the hotels Internet is HORRID. Lots of spots so far though! I'll keep at it.

Hey finally uploaded it!

Defending typical Mustang owners because they're still Fords & not because typical Mustang owners do tend to challenge everything they see.:dunce:
 
Nice spot on the Veyron but Christ that's an ugly colour combination.
 
Some Mercs I've seen around:

Dunno what this one is

That's not even the case. I'm just saying not every Mustang owner challenges everyone at every stoplight. Especially since most of them are V6's and the people driving older ones happen to be older people who are wiser.
 
V6 owners are the worst, especially women V6 owners. They think they own race cars. I can't tell you how many chicks in V6 mustangs have tried to race my GTO, it's disgusting.:yuck:

Sure, saying all might be exaggerating, but most, is pretty darn accurate in my years of experience.:sly:

Yup, if I owned a mustang, I would cruise on the streets and then do time trials on some road course.
