Did not expect to see a TVR Griffith just up the road from my apartment. Had to park and walk up to get a better photo than off my dash camera.

Outside a car shop down the street from where I live, I saw these two silver beauties.

Datsun 280Z and Volkswagen Scirocco.


First-gen 13-window Volkswagen bus in background.

A couple closeups of the Z car.



A beautiful E24 BMW 6-series.


But look in the background in the left. I didn't even notice until I got home and was looking through my photos. It's a DeLorean.

Okay, I have enough pictures for a post.

I pass by this repair shop a lot and the same cars are usually in front of it. There's an early 60s Ford Thunderbird behind that Chevrolet Colorado plus a 40s car behind the Thunderbird. Oh and that gray Nissan Altima is an SE-R, which I find those interesting.

Here's a more clear shot of the 40s car. I have no idea what it is.

I'm honestly not sure if any of these cars are considered interesting in the eyes of everyone else but here's some cars I seen in the last few months/years or so while i was away from the forum.

Dodge Monaco

Corvette C6

Classic Dodge Charger

Ferrari 488

I honestly forgot... Some type of 60's GM? Oldsmobile Cutlass maybe?

20191224_201102.jpg


BMW E31

20190509_130417.jpg


Sweet Monte Carlo

20191213_155259.jpg


Tesla Model S (Tesla's are pretty rare in Bahrain)

20190210_123812.jpg


Honda S2K AP2

20190212_144400.jpg


A Right Hand Drive Del Sol (Del Sol aren't exactly rare but RHD cars overall are rare to find over here)

del sol.jpg


A pair of dusty Supra's

20200103_122717.jpg


An Evo inside a tyre shop and a McLaren 720s just happens to be outside as well.

20191107_200049.jpg

20191107_200037.jpg


An R34 Skyline (It was humid outside so sorry for poor quality).

20191115_010305.jpg


Yet another dusty car, this time is a Camaro RS.

20190709_122356.jpg


An R33 Skyline that i happened to see while i'm replacing my cracked windshield. Oh and yes, it's LHD converted due to regulations years ago.

20190623_175936.jpg


Ford LTD. This generation of the Panther Body weren't exactly that popular compared to the GM's B/C Bodies over here in the Gulf.

Ford Crown Vic LTD.jpg


Yet another Skyline, this time is an R30 sitting outside without any plates.

skyline.jpg


Speaking of old Nissan's, i saw this S30.

20190209_144914-1.jpg


And speaking of Fairlady's, Z31 300ZX.

20181225_155125.jpg


This is one of the only four different RX7's i seen in my entire life. Not a massive fan of the bodykit and the wheels but still cool to see.

Pontiac GTO "The Judge"

Audi RS6 in a world where Crossovers and Ecoboxes rule the roads. Probably one of the few RS6's in the entire region.

One of my favorite spots, an Evo VI TME outside of a small car wash/detailing place. As i find out later, it was actually bought new from the local Mitsubishi dealership in 2000/2001.

Perhaps, maybe this is my favorite car spot ever outside of car meets, C&C and motorsport events. An SLR in a surprisingly odd location where i don't expect to see such fancy cars. This is one of 4 SLR's i've seen so far. This is coming from someone who isn't exactly a huge fan of modern exotics.

An Impala in Turkey:

A Toyota Cressida GL (X80) in Istanbul. While the car itself may not exactly be that worthy of a post, it's the fact that it carries a Kuwaiti Number Plate while residing far away in Turkey that caught my eyes.

Some nice 240SX in a parking lot.

Subaru Baja, likely owned by an American who's part of the Military.

Another Tesla, this time is a Model X with some rather hideous rims.

Another Classic Camaro, this one being washed off:

Classic GMC truck:

And to top it off, a Toyota Century heading towards the 2019 Bahrain GP. This particular one seems to be owned by the Toyota/Lexus Dealership in Bahrain.

I'm honestly not sure if any of these cars are considered interesting in the eyes of everyone else but here's some cars I seen in the last few months/years or so while i was away from the forum.
Well, I would say most of those cars would be interesting no matter where they were seen. Especially that Evo 6 TME. Great spotting overall. 👍
