Is this an M5, or just a normal 5 Series?

GTX or Road Runer

Unfortunately mate, it's just a normal 5 series. You'll recognize the M5 by that typical diffuser covering the exhaust pipes completely at their top and their sides. Also, M5 has wide chrome side indicators bearing the M logo. Finally, look for M logos on brakes :)

Not sure if this qualifies as interesting around here, but they are a rare sight in these parts.

It does, definitely - it's always nice too look at one of those tiny rockets. If you see anything unusual/rare/awesome in your opinion or if there's a kind of story connected with your sighting, feel free to post it here ;)
 
How's this for a spot? :sly:

DOUBLE COMBO!

DB9 and GTX (?) The Plymouth is certainly a rare car here in the UK.
 
believe it or not, just out taking care of business, and this is what I saw today:

Nice Fairlane, don't see many of these, liked the details in the badge



California


Viper, probably same one I saw the other day, but better pic


Chevelle


M6


Alpina V8 Roadster



Flying Spur


??? Jeep/Willys?


details on this appreciated also, Ford?


No idea, but awesome!


nice old Trans Am


custom Mustang GT, 550hp under the bonnet


California Special


XK140


very nice XJS


Oh God. OH GOD!! Splooge! E-Type!!! My first, obviously.

Correct me if I'm mistaken, but it doesn't look like an E-Type Jag to me.

Do an image search, yes it is an E-type, but the convertible is admittedly quite a bit more beautiful...

Personally, I think the coupe is far better looking than the drop-top. Not to say the roadster isn't beautiful though.
 
Karmann Ghias are always nice! But seriously, you're in SLO? If you just hunt around a little, you'll find better stuff there (or within 20-40 miles) than almost any place else in the US.
 
Well I did see a group of 3 Gallardos on Hwy 101 last year while moving in, and an R8 driving around on campus last week. Didn't have a camera ready though. And a few vipers downtown now that I think about it. :lol: I just never have my camera ready.

And I only have a bike here so not really around cars and traffic that much anyways.
 
As if the standard Phantom wasn't long enough...

Anyways, here are my spots from the weekend:

Is it in front of the Jag? If so, it's a Hyundai i10.

I heard in our local news that Toyota Philippines will be having the "86 Sightings Motorcade" where they will drive 86s around our neighborhood.

They will arrive my area on May 26! :dopey:

^ Mind you, this is no coverted-to-LHD van, its 100% pure JDM!!! It had Canadian plates though.

^ All three Scion xB generations in taxi form! :lol:
 
^ I know, my bad on that one...but seeing the 2nd version of the 2nd gen is a huge improvement and its days are numbered. I consider it as an another gen. ;)

-> I took these xB shot because its rare to see them together other than some Scion meet. :indiff:
 
jus1029
L300: 👍

xB taxis: :yuck:

BTW, there are 2 2nd-Gen xB's and 1 1st-Gen xB.

I don't know the model admittedly but it looks like 3 different gens to me, the front of the first two is different in a number of ways.

But perhaps I am misunderstanding!
