Yes, against the rules I know. But a couple of weeks ago one of those 500 drove though my street. The sound of that Alfa is just stunning. Combined with its look, makes it one of the sexiest cars currently.

I wish that I could have heard its roar.

I generally don't post photo's anymore. Unless I see something rare. And I can tell you, that I have found 1 of the 500 in the world. And it's sitting on the back of a service truck bay in true Alfa style :dopey:

Truly is a beauty to see in person.

Alfas are just sexy!:drool:
 
I was going to get a book for college, going up there I saw a 1966-68 Mustang... white with blue stripes. Looked like a 15 year old driving it with his dad in the passenger seat... learning stick I guess. Would have taken a picture but didn't have my phone out... and I was going 20 MPH over the speed limit sooo... yea.
And, coming back I saw a Bentley Continental GT in black. He was sitting at a redlight perpendicular to me.

From now on i'm just going to keep my phone out of my pocket at all times...
 
It helps if you find a good permanent place to keep it while driving within easy reach. Then start practicing the quick draw and shoot, it takes a while to get good at it. I still miss half the shots I attempt... have been fiddling with using movie mode, higher chance of capturing a decent shot, but no chance at a good shot due to reduced resolution...
 
Damn my phone camera is messed up and today was a great day for cars. :(

Thanks! Couple more shots on my Flickr.

And thanks also playnthru for following up on those IDs. Henry J, cool! The Chevy is local, I know where it lives and see it out a bit. Did catch up with the owner just after he'd parked, and a very appropriate owner indeed! 35ish and tattooed, with his lady, cool couple. Car needs work but I like where he's going with it.
 
Not too up on my 911s, but found this one today.

Nice, I like the color scheme and the spoiler on it.

Also, not that unusual of a car, but today I was driven in a TSX Sport Wagon loaner because my mom's MDX had transmission problems. Pretty smooth ride, and good looks. (Note: none of these pictures were taken in the TSX, they were all after we picked up the MDX).

Only in New Mexico will you see a Ferrari next to ranchers pickup trucks.

So if the car show that I went to today is a pre show does that still count as a event? Got alot of pics plus a few surprises. I'll upload the pics in a bit after I upload them to photobucket.
 
In reverse chronological order, I spotted this Elise on the way to work:

This old Porsche cabriolet and Jaguar downtown on Monday:

As well as this Ranchero.

I took a trip to Niagara the day before and spotted a '70 Road Runner, a '40s Willys, '55 and '57 Bel Airs and even a Batmobile replica, but they zipped by on the highway before I got my camera ready.

Cars that weren't at the show today.










Rest will be in the event thread.
 
Seems to be trend, little "special edition" cars. I kinda like them.

Renault Twingo RenaultSport - low-budget adventure, only as an example that even the guy on Main Street can affort a "sports car"... :lol:


Renault Clio RS - a little more serious than the Twingo.


Seat Ibiza SC Sport Limited (only 300 pieces for Germany), so quite a rare find - hit the market in 2010.


Not a trend but a classy sports car - Ferrari 328 GTS - awesome sound as well. That was Ferrari when I was like... 18 or so in the late 80ies.

Now that I have a phone with a camera, I can finally participate :lol:

So, yeah, came back from a bit of shopping :scared: and came across two nice things. The first, a V8 R8:

But, parked close to the city theatre (which happens to be just around the corner from where I live), I found this beauty basking in the sun:

Small world indeed 👍 What town did you take the picture in? I suppose Düsseldorf or something along those lines, judging by the amount of nice cars you caught?

Düsseldorf indeed. Some crazy cars can be seen there.
 
Ugh, I can never find the AMG SLs. I see a lot of the normal ones, but never an AMG.

Easy guess, I suppose :lol: The background in the 997 pic seemed way too similar to the Kö to be anything else 👍 Expensive part of the town, so whenever I go there, it's scrawling with nice cars. Sigh, I wanna go there now :lol:
 
They look like a reflection of numbers painted on the ground to me. (I hope)
 
Dont know when I drove past him he had a ton of chrome bits all over also a hood scoop :)
