To help end the topic, the CL63 AMG of the C215 era did not sport a V8 engine as I believe Beeble correctly said. It did indeed, have a NA 6.3-liter V12 & was stupid rare.

The car spotted in this thread though, is the CL65 as illustrated by the bi-turbo emblems & a different placement of the V12.

The CL63's V12 insignia is lower, has dual exhausts, & sports 5-spoke wheels. To my knowledge, it also has a different tail lamp design & I believe this is due to the CL65 coming into production later.
This is a large picture, so I'm linking it.

Yeah, I noticed the wheels, too, said something on the hub I don't remember, not normal Porsche wheels for sure.

Ooh, a Volvo C30...

But, even better than a normal C30...

R-Design, one of the members of my extended family has the thing. First one I've seen, might be the last one.

Got a lot more of some other rarities, but apparently ImageShack says the pictures are too large (the ones here were done with my phone, and the ones I can't upload are done with my actual camera.)
 
an original 30's Morgan 3 Wheeler.

Dude awesome! I highly doubt it's a 30s original more like anew one, but it's still a fantastic spot!

And this one I'm hoping will make Cano's eyes pop a little. I'm going to guess '32 Chevy, but only give myself a 10% chance of being right.

Cano will be all over that.

DEAR GOD whatever it once was kill it with fire!!!! Quick!!! Get it out of it's missery!!!

I sure, SURE hope it's fiberglass. Altough I don't think so. Poor Model A :cry:

Hahaha! Well, not quite the reaction I was going for... but you know how little I know, I see a chevy bowtie on the engine and assume it's a chevy body. It was just so clean and looked like a rather expensive job. Oh well, guess I'll have to burn it.

And yeah, a local spotter actually pointed out to me that it's an original Morgan, I'd labeled it as a new one initially, because what are the chances, right? After looking closely at photos I had to agree with him. So yeah, my favorite spot ever.
 
Awesome video!!! Even if it doesn't really belong here, I enjoyed watching it!
 
So here are some shots of that BMW I spotted. Was walking from work to meet my mom at the gym and spotted this in the estate:

nice spot, but that car looks ridiculous, in my opinion rat rod only suits vintage American cars.

How'd you get a Mustang out of a Comet lol? I mean yeah they look a bit similar to the Mustang II but still XD

I've seen Lightning's around before, though not very common.

I was driving, the sun was in my face, and the back looks like a Mustang. I knew it wasn't a Mustang when I seen it had 4 doors, though. I guess I just got excited because I seen a classic car, which are still rare this time of year. :lol:
 
Please, when I type what I have seen, whether I post a pic/video or not, please trust I do not lie about it. I understand the rules and sometimes at the moment it may be too late to snap evidence, even with iPhone at the ready. I'm too old to make up stories. I post to share to the automotive community. Enjoy.

DAT RATROD E36! 👎:crazy: The man who owns that BMW must be cubed!

From last Saturday to today,

There were some others I've missed. Audi RS6 Avant, Hyundai Equus, Porsche 911 Targa, etc. :ouch: No need to quote that line and say "read the OP" or "pics or didn't happen". I'm just saying. That's all.
 
^ There's one here in the Okanagan valley, only one I've seen in my life. It regularly attends car shows here. Very cool cars.

I believe it was imported, but don't quote me on that.
