The red truck is a Jeep, but I don't know the name.

I believe that particular truck was sold as the apache

Jeep J10 "Honcho." Considering there are probably only a dozen left in the U.S. that haven't rusted into the ground (If the Wagoneer is any indication), seeing one in Europe is a great find. Relatively speaking.

Thanks for the car info guys.:)👍

Wouldn't those taillights be illegal? The covers looked like carbon fiber.

Crossfire, IS350, Excursion limo (when renting a limo, you're charged for gas, aren't you?), MR2 Spyder, Cayman S.

I believe those wheels on the 7 series became the optional upgrade when they freshened the styling recently.

+1 Stock but not standard.

A bit of brisk draft and that cart could easily make a 12,000$ crack in the Lotus... I'd be worried.

It'd have to be a mighty brisk draft to do that damage!!!

I doubt it... it's pointed at the wrong spot so the draft would have to swivel it 15 or 20 degrees AND move it 8 feet.

A front or rear clam replacement runs up a bill of 12,000$ on the Elise. It's an expensive piece and expensive labor. The fragile fiberglass makes it easy to crack and hard to patch up.

Cayanne GTS, whatever that might be. I hadn't seen one before so I figured it was a new trim level:

The Cayenne GTS is better than the S, but below the Turbo.

Cool spot on the Bullitt Mustang (although I must confess I really didn't care for the movie, the car was awesome)! 👍

Isn't it a N/A v-8 with everything else from the turbo? I never pay much mind to the Cayenne and before I knew it they had a crappy v6 model and a turbo s...
 
I don't think I have seen a Viper that doesn't look mean :p

Very good point! 👍 This picture just struck me as one that made the car look more mean than normal.

I dunno... I've seen em patched and look perfect!

I'm glad I actually have time now to do this, really starting to rack up the spots.

New Chevy Traverse, I wasn't in a good position for photos so wing mirror ones will have to do.

Today I was siting in the car parked in town and a Mercedes S Class drives past, not unusual, theres loads of them around here. But this one had a Barabus badge on the back, is there even such a thing as a Barabus S-class or is that badge just stuck onto a standard S-class??

You mean Brabus. Brabus is the company who tuned the car. They'll pretty much tune any Mercedes, S-Class to C-Class. They're very well known, and have made quite a few insane cars.
Many M-B dealers offer Brabus packages as aftermarket parts.

I knew who they were, spelt it wrong though :dunce:. Its probably just a Brabus body kit. I was hoping it was an some insane 700bhp S-class, probably not though. :indiff:
 
Went cruising Woodward Ave. tonight, first time this summer actually, and saw some pretty nice cars. However, before hand I hit up Oakland University since the Concours in happening Sunday (yes I'll be there with camera in hand). No one was unloading anything cool, although there was a bunch of new Hyundai Genesis since they are going to do some test drive thing with them.

Now onto cruising with the first spot happening pretty much as I started, a Fahrenheit GTI. I love the colour of it.

Next up was a Prowler.
IMG_0317.jpg


Followed by a Viper GTS which had some aftermarket goodies on it, sounded pretty mean.

Next was a stop off at Auto Europe, an importer in Birmingham. They always have a couple cars out side but inside is amazing stuff. They had probably 7 Morgans and even a Morgan Aero! I couldn't get photos of it but here are some I could get, mostly outside. First up was an Austin Mini 1000.

Then an old school Land Rover Discovery.
IMG_0325.jpg


Finally a Mercedes-Benz G500 Cabriolet, I have to imagine they are somewhat rare since I've never seen one before now.
IMG_0329.jpg


Then inside there was this, it had Lotus badges on the rims but I doubt it was a 7.
IMG_0330.jpg


Then there was this, a Corvette Z06 Club Sport. It had a G plate on it which mean in transit. I don't know if this is some special model or not but it looked to have a GM barcode on it.

A Z06 Club Sport is news to me. I figure there would have been some news about it like the Ron Fellows model. That, or I missed a thread by YSSMAN.
 
It's not uncommon for one of the car markers to bring a new model down to Woodward and see what sort of "street cred" it gets. ACR Vipers were running around down there before they were officially shown.

What else could it be?

👍 on the Mini and ClubSport!
