Usually, that would be enough to talk out loud some bad words, but this...

Really makes it. Your ears must have ringed really hard just now. Damn you.

also, the Impala low rider in Japan. Aaaaawesome.

Also, what is that red car in the background of the Supra picture? I'm guessing it's probably some old Ford or Holden, but I don't know old Australian cars well either.

Wow, good eye! I didn't even see that until you pointed it out. I'm not sure what that is, maybe some local can help out.

It's an australian Chrysler Valiant:

So I went to the bodyshop with my dad after work and this was there. The whole 'Christine' thing ruins it buts it's still a cool car.





 
I see a lot of them in the streets here, how are they called? I know them as Chevrolet Spark

I was showing the picture for all of you to tell me what kind of Chevy it is because I don't see those kind of Chevys around here that much

That would be the Chevy Spark. Pretty decent little car for the money, and looks pretty neat inside and out. Interior quality's pretty good but it's a far cry from the much nicer Sonic. They're starting to pop up around here recently as well.

Congrats on your first Lambo, jus! I remember mine clearly as well! And I'm, only up to about 6 total now since, so great spot!

Just curious, what are the common manufacturers of cars found in San Juan City? Not to say some of the cars you post aren't good for you, but they're quite common in the States, which makes me think, the Philippines must get mostly stuff we don't see over here, from Malaysia? Korea? China? Curious to hear.

Thanks, Jeff! :D That Gallardo is straight from the dealership!

Some common manufacturers: Toyota (except for 86, MR2, Celica, etc.), Nissan (except for GT-R, 370Z, Juke, etc.), Honda (except for Integra, Civic Type R, etc.), Chevrolet (except Camaro, Corvette, etc.), Proton Wira, among others.

We also get Chinese cars. Many Filipinos apparently praise them! :scared:
I remember we used to have a Chevrolet Lumina based from the Chinese-made Buick Regal. 👎:yuck:

(In sequencing order)
Yeah, I remember you talk about it a year ago.

Nice!

A Cressida? Pretty rare here.

I knew it was a Domani! The Accord badge behind it made me rethink.

Saw this RX-7 broken down and then it caught back up with us.

I just don't understand where all the FD's are. I've only seen one, ever.

Also, don't normally take pics of covered vehicles, and was at work/delivering pizza so couldn't stop and knock on the door (may have to go back), but the lines on this looked sharp, 80's ish, was thinking DeLorean, Pantera... any guesses?


And lastly, carspotting related if not about anything good I saw today, but I'm frequently confused about my Flicker Photostream Popularity statistics. Checked it today (haven't checked it since last fall since it's the off season here, and was surprised/shocked by a couple. Any thoughts? Also, out of about 1000 photos, with 60%-80% of them getting 5-10 views.

#1: toyota mr2 w10 burnt yellow custom body snorkel, 182 views, this one has long been my #1 so wasn't surprised today

#2: bmw m3 e46 convertible red FLA plates, 91 views... I said what?!?!?

#3: lamborghini 400gt 2+2 front, 89 views, yeah this one should be #1

#4: vw golf r32 mk4 black carbon fiber, 87 views... I like this one a lot, but still surprising

of the top 20, 3 are 991's, a pair of CLS63 AMG's, a Camaro ZL1, a Z8, my one FD, an R8 V10, another W10 MR2, CGT Supersports, series 60 Land Cruiser, and an S4 with custom plate CEEEYAA (another one of those which is really surprising...)

I've got tons of other pretty and rare cars I'd figured should be in my top 20 (40 views was the cutoff,) but none of the old Ferrari's, not the Porsche Carerra GT, etc. Just curious how views could be so random. And especially how that M3 got into my 2nd spot?!?

Possibly an Esprit? Shape matches but is perhaps a little too "upright", if you follow me.
