Did You See Anything Good Today? [Read First Post]

[jeffgoddin]

I can't prove the older ones, but I can and will try to get pics of the neighborhood ones.

In my neighborhood:
-Jaguar XJ
-Porsche Panamera
-Assorted A6s, BMW's, etc.

Not really "good", but if it's the best you see, go ahead and shoot it. I've had an evolution personally. I used to take pictures of Jags, Audi S's, every AMG, every M3, every Porsche, but after you see more than 4-6 of a particular model in a few months, it no longer seems worth posting here...

The other cars are all cool, though.

One thing to try if you want to find out where to find good cars, do a restaurant search in your area, and look for where the most expensive ones are, should be at least $40 per plate, $100+ ideally, and those are the areas which have the best chance of having great cars.

The other kind of "good" is rare and unusual, which can include both modern or classic cars, though usually it's cars from the '80's and before.

Haha! This made me chuckle, Jeff.

I've seen this imported Skyline a few times recently, but first got a photo of it about a week ago. It'd be a pretty nice car if it weren't for those butt-ugly rims:

It also appears to be missing door handles.

 

[Kamuifanboy]

I actually like those rims. They even look like Momo Ten-S's

 

[Carlos]

Look at that color

 

[Kamuifanboy]

Look at that color

The V8 Vantage looks good in so many colors. I've seen a light blue around town before (before I started taking pics of cars), that literally made my pants move

 

[Beeblebrox237]

They're were three right around that car. They are so common here, I don't even notice them to be honest.

Stop bragging!

Thanks for sharing the London photos with us NISM0. They were really good and some unreal spots there! When I go back to the UK next year, I will be sure to take the camera around our capital.

 

[jeffgoddin]

Thanks! Looked better than normal, I normally don't shoot Corvettes.

 

[Cano]

Nice!

Nice cable, dude.

Dangit it said Custom! and yeah, crappy shot at the interior of the Boss, mostly reflection... But nice car, still! Best Ford out there I'd say.

 

[CodeRedR51]

RX-8 Grand Am Series car owned by Patrick Dempsey? Check.

 

[Skython]

I dislike this thread! It just makes me jealous that no one has the money to get these awesome cars here in NZ, or they're rich but all get BMW's, which here only 🤬 drive, and polititians. So just 🤬.

What is wrong with BMWs?

 

[Celicaas]

Nice!

different blue Z car

Dude Z Cars are no rare in our country it's a common site along with 70's 80's Skylines


they are used for doing donughts and zig zag and drifting

 

[poolhaas]

I'm here to fill up the pages a bit, when I'm able to post 20+ cars, years would have past

Maserati


Camaro SS

 

[Celicaas]

i don't think that camaros and mustangs are rare sight infact there too much common would you agree

 

[jeffgoddin]

Camaro SS in Belgium = not common
base Mustang and GT = common in US at least
Mustang GT500, Saleen, Boss = not common anywhere

and for me, sorry guys, but every time I see an old Z car, Supra, or RX-7, I'm going to shoot it and post it here. they're definitely uncommon at this point if not rare, but more than that, I just love this period and these cars!

 

[stumpydino]

Range Rover

actually that is a lightweight, which is a darn sight rarer than a rangey

 

[WrxScooby]

Wasnt today but a while back but fits in nicely.

Audi and my Legacy

Agreed, I hope people aren't raising the bar too high.
I'd like to invite anyone here to find me 4 camaros (even this is one from Germany )

BTW: WRX, those R8's still give me the chills.

Audi and my Legacy

Not the Audi that get's my attention, that house.. That's awesome. We don't have something like that.

And the Legacy, I like that more. What's that on your mirror? And what car is on the left? That's a lot of glass on that car!!

 

[Mark II Blit]

The car on the left is a Saturn SC1.

And I have to agree with Carlos: even though the Audi is a hot car, the Legacy is much cooler.

 

[WrxScooby]

thanks a lot for the positive comments I do love my legacy and its a Rally Pig on the mirror I have them on both my Subies
