Usually I don't have the time or presence of mind take pictures of cars outside shows and meets, but this one was just mooning me at a car park, and I couldn't pass it by without snapping a shot.

A little teaser of what I found during my Italy/Monaco/France trip. Help identifying all the cars would be nice. Sorry for the bad quality, my phone was al i had with me at the time, but atleast i can se a Saab 96(rally), Renault Avantime, a lotus Seven (or a caterhem), a golf(rally) and a Ferrari.

More pics and vids comming when i get the photos from my sisters camera. I have a few really nice spots^^

Here's something for fun, maybe, going with the Flickr thing.

Sometimes I check the Popular tab, then Views, to see what my most viewed photos are. Some i can understand, but a few are quite surprising to me. So, I thought I'd share and see what people think.

And I thought it would be interesting to see the same sort of list from others here. Not sure if non-Flickr users get the same sort of list from their host site, but anything you may have in the same spirit would be okay to post, too.

#1, 35 views, this one especially blows my mind.

#2, 27 views. This one I can understand, fuzzy unidentified photo that people are trying to see more closely to help me figure it out. But it also underscores how surprised I am at #1, the next closest has only 80% of the views!

#3, 26 views. Also somewhat surprising. Yeah, new Porsche and the best one yet available, and maybe an early spot of it for most. But still, over 997 GT3 RS 4.0?

#4, 24 views. Also surprising, not a great shot, but I'm happy others checked it out, I myself consider this one of my most exciting spots to date.

#5, 21 views. I labeled it a Ferrari at first due to my poor memory. The actual 250 Lusso photo only has 10 views so far...:(

austin healey by spotterjeff, on Flickr

#6, also 21 views. Surprising this is my top Ferrari...

ferrari f355 spider red by spotterjeff, on Flickr

#7, 20 views. Also surprising this is by far my top AMG...

#8, 20 views. Glad this made it up here, sweet car. Though being added to the Thuderbird group by the admin on Flickr probably helped.

#9, 19 views. Now I can see this topping my Ferrari list (though it didn't) since there's almost none of them around in my area. And the other place I post my spots is an Ohio thread on Ferrarichat.com.

#10, four way tie with 18 views each, the LFA front view, the Esprit rear view, Alpina V8 roadster rear view, and CGT/NISMO GT-R R35 front view.

Anybody else want to share? Or comment?
 
I think the white Dunno = Citroen Visa Rally

The green Who the heck knows = Simca 1000 race version
 
The White 'Dunno' is a Citroën Visa Chrono.

The Green 'Who the heck knows' looks to be a Simca-Abarth Rallye.

*edit* tree'd!

The Fiat 124 is a Fiat Abarth 124 Spider (or replica)

I think it might take into account views through other websites. i.e. if someone put that MR-2 into a 'Questionable Mods' thread, Tumblr or Facebook group, it would get many views and they would count towards the overall hits. It's an interesting thought. I am going to have a look at mine...

Way out in the lead is this Aventador with 4,000+ views...

Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4 by R-W-P (Rupert in HK), on Flickr

and in second place is this view of Hong Kong with nearly 2,500 views...

It's then ALL cars down to place number 128 with this little Lego fellani with 300 views...

As I said, I think it is based on how many people link back to your photo in other places, hence why my car photos have many more views than my non-car pictures.

Love your WRX SPhilli91! It's perfect!

Uugghh, being a bug duece fan i have to say that rear bumper and taillight cover are kinda ruining the car...although that snorkel does make for a very cool looking modification
 
I had no idea Nissan made a 300ZX convertible. Nice spotting.

300ZX are everywhere in New Zealand but I have never seen one of them.
 
Thought this was interesting...



and here's one for Cano. not sure what it is, but this spot has also sported a Morris Minor and Karman Ghia, so I figure maybe this is interesting, too.

Aston Martin DB9. I final got a shot of it. Seen it many times. Its pretty dirty but good to see the guy drives it a lot.
 
NISM0, you mis-spelt 'Challenger', mate ;)

(sorry, I'm a grammar nazi)

Great set, I especially like the Mach 1 shot 👍
