Went to Italy for a holiday a few weeks ago, got some snaps of interesting cars, will sort through them and post soon.

Missed a ZR-1 on the street yesterday. No way I would have expected seeing any kind of supercar when going for some shopping in winter with snow everywhere! :scared:

Besides, I see a weirdly coloured Bentley daily at my workplace now. Looks pretty interesting, but not a big fan of that colour, and I still think a Continental GT Speed looks better. :P
 
^When I see a Continental on street, it's either black or silver-ish. Like people here in Poland couldn't see the point in having more than two colors to choose from.

Nice to see one in this color combo, looks neat c:

And believe me, there's a LOT of CGTs in Warsaw's centre. A day without seeing one of those is incomplete ;)

Anyway, maaaan, there are so many claims I can make, why can't I manage to pull out my phone on time in 90% of cases :C
Whatevs, here are some recent spots from my city I actually CAN prove:

G-Class AMG! Even the 'normal' G Merc is a very rare spot here in Poland!

GT86. This very car is being long-distance-tested by the Polish edition of Top Gear!

Awesome old 911 (what model, exactly?):

Aaaand a Maybach 57, I was sure I'd never catch one of those in Poland. What's more, I saw a 62 a few days before that spot!

Not sure if I posted this one here, an awesome Fiat 125p:

Im starting to hate this thread.

Everytime Im out being a responsible driver there's an exotic waiting to be caught by my iphone! But no, Im trying to do the right thing and so my phone never makes it out of my pocket as that R8 passes me.

Just the same, great pics everyone, that rear view of the gallardo was great! 👍
 
Wasn't sure where to put this.... Was on the freeway and saw this:

It's right hand drive and the front I could best describe as a 70 chevelle. Any ideas?
 
Saw one of my favourite cars today, Nissan Juke Nismo. Fantastic looking car:

I think the Porsche was just known as the 911 Carrera, it shared the whale tail with the 3.3 Turbo but was normally-aspirated, praps a smaller engine, and without the fat a....flared rear arches of the Turbo. Lovely car!

Plus Polski Fiat! Later known as FSO? Great clean example :)

I must be one of the few people who simply doesn't see the point of this car, but then IMHO it's a terrible looking car in the first place. Different strokes for different folks I guess!

Blackbird.
Nice a rare find in California. :P

A Holden ute in California? Do many Aussie cars find their way to the US?

Thanks you for information on the 911 c:

And yes, that oldie was later known as FSO (Fabryka Samochodów Osobowych - "Family Car Factory"-ish). People here don't seem to apreciate them nowadays, you know... That's too bad as it's getting legitimately hard to see one of those today :C

I also have pics of Akropolis 1800 versionof this 125p, I'll post them here as soon as I'll find 'em:)

For some reason I really like the looks of that thing, but I HATE the basic Juke. No idea why :D
 
I know what you mean, I like seeing 80s cars in good order now that were so common when I was a kid but so rare now, like Ford Escorts and Sierras, Austin Metros, Maestros, Montegos etc. There is always a risk such cars will effectively become "extinct" because they have no value to collectors, which seems so sad.
 
Found the 125p Akropolis 1800 pics! Man does that make me smile :D:

This one is by far the cleanest 125p I've ever seen. But as I said, it's getting bloody hard to see them recently. I remember how many of those there were on the roads like 15 years ago!
 
Im going to the Grand Rapids show tomarrow Ill take pics and maybe take some videos of some of the cars that are there.
 
Errrrrm, rue? I don't want to be rude, but that taxi is obviously touching the ground! You can even see the pressure bulges on the tires! Lol.
 
Just come out of the dentist and this was sat on a street opposite.
