Did You See Anything Good Today? [Read First Post]

[Nicksfix]

Pretty sure it's a '63 Galaxie, the grille is wrong for a '64. I think the squarish roofline is throwing people off, however the Galaxie was sold in a "boxtop" variant, which I think this is.

The Thunderbolt also doesn't have that grille.

Thanks for the clarification.
I'm not the biggest of Ford guys, but it did get my attention. It's a nice ride for sure. 👍

I don't think I have posted these yet. Know I haven't put anything up lately, but I am moving to Dallas at the end of the month--spotting is going to get a lot more exciting compared to OKC.

Rapide

GT-R and CGT

ISF

S63 AMG

Model S

Flying Spur

6-Series, someone might be able to better fill in what type.

Not rare I'd imagine, but the first I'd seen of the new MKZ. Impressively good looking new car.

Model S

Seen a few of the MKZ's. They look so much better in person.


Also, gotta move to Dallas.

It's definitely a looker compared to the bland original.

M6 Gran Coupe, just started selling them here... and I've yet to see a regular 6 series Gran Coupe.

Should have seen the guy who came up to it after I took the picture. The BMW stereotype is real.

 

[Sage Ages]

2 small ones today.

Supra (STOCK!! Did these come in cabriolet/convertible form?)

Yes. Everyone forgets about the targa version.

 

[disinfected]

The targa roof was standard for the turbo models after 96 if I'm not mistaken.

 

[RocZX]

late 40's Mercury? (I have no confidence in this guess...)

It's a 1950 Buick Roadmaster.
The portholes or "ventiports" (as Buick calls them) always indicate a Buick.

old tow truck!

that looks awesome!

Or someone with no taste who's been to the auto parts section in Wal Mart.

That's actually just a regular 6 Gran Coupe. The first BMW M6 GCs in Dallas should be arriving end of this month; they just had the official US launch in June.

SV by FazerfanFIN, on Flickr

This is actually a LP640 with an aftermarket spoiler & exhaust.

If it isn't the real thing, the parts must not be aftermarket because the shape of the spoiler is identical to that of the original.

 

[GTMail]

The spoiler location is off. On the SV, the spoiler is hinged on the rear deck area between the tail lights. The paint is also incorrect I believe. It's also hard to tell if it's a real one because the sign covers where the SV logo should be. Exhaust is spot on though. It's hard to tell if it's a real one.
EDIT: Yup, it's just a LP640. Just Googled a SV. The rear diffuser is completely off.

If it isn't the real thing, the parts must not be aftermarket because the shape of the spoiler is identical to that of the original.

Because an aftermarket company can't completely replicate that shape at all?

 

[Fazerfan]

Thanks for the correction 👍 ! I think LP640 is good enough.

 

[Kamuifanboy]

I guess you are correct then.

Surprising to see a Lamborghini in Tokyo with aftermarket parts. Anything that expensive is usually left alone or has OEM parts on it here. Guess that guy wanted to be different.

 

[McLaren]

That's a bit surprising then, as Japan itself has, by far, one of the largest modified Lamborghini communities in the world. And I mean well beyond just exhausts & small kits.

You can take your super cars and shove them where the sun don't shine as I saw this beauty today and I'd take it over a Lamborghini or Ferrari any day!

It's a nice car, but that's your opinion of it

I'm with you there. Drool over these every time I see them on the street =P

 

[The Stig Farmer]

That shape of Mustang is really growing on me. Great spot 👍

Dammit GT5

 

[xXKingJoshXx]

Great spot 👍

An even greater spot considering it's not in America. I'm guessing there's not many Mustangs over there?

I just love seeing American cars in other countries and vice/versa. When I was on a cruise in the Cayman Islands I seen 2 Ford F150 SVT Lightnings going down the road with eachother; one red, one blue. Also seen my first Peugeot (I believe it was a 307CC, may be wrong though), my first A class Mercedes (two in one spot, actualy), my first Renault (can't remember what type), my first non-2CV Citroen, and a few Lancias (all of them new rebadges except for a classic one which I won't go into detail with since it would be considered a good spot)

I could've cared less about the nice weather and the beautiful ocean. I just loved seeing all the cars we don't get over here.

Oh, and an overabundance of Jag XF's too.

Mach 1

I'm loving that spot 👍 Especially to see one in the midlands

Only ever saw one or two Older Generation Mustangs in the Midlands.

 

[FordMKIVJ5]

Outside of car shows, they're very rare. You're more likely to see an Italian exotic than an American classic, that's for sure.

 

[RandomCarGuy17]

Yeah, I can easily find 1971 Mach I mustangs at car shows, but finding them in the wild is a bit difficult.

 

[CyborgGT]

It's a LAMBORGHINI!!! No, just kidding. International Harvester. I like 'em, anyway.

 

[Zyla]

I love the wheels on that Porsche.
