Sorry for no pictures, couldn't get the phone out!

Today I saw an immaculate Dark Maroon Subaru SVX. I'd never seen one before, and DANG! They are some real good looking cars.

Looked just like this:

Harry, the 355 is a Berlinetta (GTB) the one with the targa roof is a GTS. Same as on the 308, 328 and 365 models. Hope this helps.

Thanks, Rue. 👍 I'll get studying these now....

I have my doubts; GT3 RS wing, odd alloys.... It's got the right bodykit, though, and it otherwise looks correct. The "half cage" is an option on just about all 911's. Probably a modified GT3, but who'd do that?


Audi RS6 2002

This, however, I hope is not fake. Because if it was, then it's in need of some serious exhaust repair. The thing is, I caught this thing out of the corner of my eye and was moderately excited to get it on film. Of course, I was blind to the rather obvious stand out at the other end of the parking lot:

Ford GT

It's onle the second one I've seen, so I was all fumbles with the camera. The shots aren't bad, but in retrospect I should have gotten out of the car. In that neighborhood, in that strip mall, I can't imagine who'd have driven it there. Can't be any of the shop owners; the Blockbuster there is the headliner, next to King China Buffet....
 
btw, great photos exigeracer! Keep 'em coming!
 
Saw an Audi A8 and a Porsche Cayenne. Slow day. :D
 
Mitsubishi Evo 9 RS

I think *Mclaren*'s mate(I think it was him) on FChat bought the white zonda f from that london showroom, as it has been seen at a house in rochdale, and a freind took some photos of it and a veyron at a pub in lichfield. I'll try to get a picture off him when I can.

I'm assuming those places are in England, correct?

I rise in favor of DB9 condemnation.
 
Jaugar XK.

Incidentally, so is the red car on the right.
 
Perhaps the first T-Rex I see outside its native Canada... never seen one with a windshield before, that's a first too. Since it's registered as a trike over here, and since it uses a bike engine, you need a helmet to drive it at all times.

Supposed to be the same here in the states, or so dealers have said.
 
Jeez so many good cars in America.

Today I saw a few great cars, but a highlight was a Ferrari. Seeing a Ferrari is usually only a once a month thing over here.

 
Triumph Spitfire:


My first clubman, go me...


Spoke to the owner of this, i drove past and thought 'Subaru?' never seen one of these, just said '1800 AWD' on the back.


First time i've seen this paint on a bike, looks pretty sweet :)


This thing sounded real throaty! Pontiac Trans Am:


Shot of the day, almost missed it, total luck shot, pointed sideways out of the window while not even looking that direction, driving...

Missed:
FD RX-7 in black, very sexy.

The man driving was not wearing a helmet which surprised me strongly - I'm sure it's not a requirement in Georgia, but you'd think you'd want to - the thing has no doors and is VERY open and low to the ground. One day I'd consider owning a T-Rex, but I'd NEVER drive it without a helmet.

Are they registered as a car or motorcycle? In Michigan if it was registered as a car it would be illegal to drive one with a helmet. Although I agree with you though, it would be far safer to have a helmet, not only for event of a crash but for flying road debris as well.

The Subaru is called a BRAT here in the states:

And is called just Subaru Pickup here, and the regular version is called the Subaru DL. Incredibly common, especially in the poorer areas now.
 
Today.






The men that you see in the last picture is the owner.
He even talked a little bit with me about his car.:)
 
I think he did:scared:

*mclaren*, yes those places were in england.

EDIT: I saw an SLR and DB9 on the motorway today cruising together, and a gallardo superlagerra. Pics tommorow.
