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

[1X83Z]

I feel that way about Bentley Continentals, they're still really imposing cars even though I see them all over the place.

I felt that way until Continental number ten zillion.

Since then I've mellowed.

 

[YSSMAN]

I agree with Doug: After spending a week in Miami, where it seems every-other car in South Beach is a Continental/Flying Spur or RR Phantom, you get bored quickly. Although when I saw that one at Macy's the other day it was special because it was the first GTC I can recall seeing here in Grand Rapids...

Is that a man in a cape?

I'm including nearly every photo I took today because the Countach is such a crazy spot in traffic that it's rare you get photos of it involved with other "normal" cars for comparison. So, for your viewing pleasure...

12 photos. Same color, too. Way to rub it in.

Harry you need to come down here and go car spotting with me for a bit so you can see some non-kit cars!

Yesterday...

Maybach 57. Stock wheels, local plate BTWIII. Being driven by a middle-aged black man. Cool car.

Gallardo on temporary plates. Third spot of it this week!

DB9 Volante.

Brand new V8 Vantage.

EDIT:

Oh and also the General Lee.

Saw a rolls royce phantom earlier on my way to work. What i thought was odd about this is that it was parked in front of a small cafe and pub, not really a place you'd expect to see such a car!
unfortunately since i was driving and on my way to work, no camera = no pic..

I do. Either that or Denver. I like my privacy, but...well...it's probably worth it. Maybe I'll figure out something soon.

[under18carbon]

Nice 350Z.

 

[Joey D]

That SAAB reminds me of something Doug would drive.

It's the only Saab I'd drive!

Saw this Blazer and thought of Joey. This is how Blazers shouldn't be. I noticed afterward the cool Mini.



Infiniti G35 coupe.




Things around my town are boring. Not Atlanta for sure.

 

[Serge.D]

Rolls Royce Silver Spirit II.

 

[kikie]

Is that a man in a cape?

Nope, that's *superwoman*

 

[UnoMOTO]

Suzuki GSX-R 700 ?

Almost...Suzuki only make 750's and that bike was an SRAD model between 96'-99'

 

[Rotary Junkie]

The Blazer would sell in an INSTANT around my school...

Just for the rims.

 

[Joey D]

Wow that Blazer is pretty much god awful.

 

[1X83Z]

A month and a half ago I was extremely bummed that I'd never seen an Aston-Martin Vanquish. Now I've seen three!

This one had local temporary plates. A beautiful car. All my Vanquish spots have been silver.

 

[Joey D]

They are certainly nice cars, I saw my first one in London and I believe it rekindled a love for Astons.

Wait until you see one of these:

 

[1X83Z]

Meh. I've seen DB9s and in pictures, it looks only slightly different.

DB9? There be no DB9 in that photo.

 

[Danny]

DBS with optional awesomeness pack.

DBS with optional awesomeness pack.

Awesomeness comes as standard.

Nice car parked next to it too....

 

[1X83Z]

DB9? There be no DB9 in that photo.

The 'it' in my statement was intended to be an obvious reference to the DBS, which was pictured.

'I've seen DB9s, and [the DBS] looks no different.'

...a statement which I am reserving full judgement on until I see a DBS.

 

[daan]

Your comment was ambiguous and could be taken either way. I'm not a mind reader.

So then what do you think 'it' is referring to? It's obviously not referring to the DB9, since I specifically say I've seen DB9s and in pictures the vehicle Famine has shown looks only slightly different. So do you think I'm saying "I've seen DB9s and in pictures, DB9s only look slightly different"?

I saw this RR Silver Shadow II on the way to work this morning. It was in very good condition. I can't recall the last time I saw one of these in normal traffic and not at a wedding.


Arguably at the other end of the scale, I also saw this Daihatsu Charade De Tomaso Bianca.
