People please read the Thread title:
Did You See Anything Good Today? [Read First Post]
Then do this: [Read First Post]

Then you will notice a post should be like this:

I was visiting the inlaws and went car hunting near Hyde Park London and saw:

a Ferrari 599 (well accompanied):

an Aston Martin DB9

that constitutes a post about cars that most members appreciate.

Not all of us have cameras at the ready when we see these cars. I never expect to see anything nice that's why I don't have any pictures of anything I see.

Okay, so these may be commonplace in most of the Western world but here in Hong Kong they're pretty rare, so I'm going to post it...

Nope Rue, i've only seen maybe 2 in 18 years in Ohio. And 0 in 5 months in Tokyo. Definitely rare due to it's age!

 

[Cano]

You came to Mexico and never let me know!

There is no point of saying what you have seen, if you don't make photos of it. Reading what you have seen is pretty boring.. So please, if you see something good, try to make a photo and post it here. If not, enjoy everybody elses photos 👍

Another day, yet another Lambo...

Not very common here. And that is the best kept beetle I've ever seen, in real life or in a photo. Ever.

 

[poolhaas]

I must admit, this was a Beetle enthousiast meet with a cameo of my car all the way in the back

 

[Rue]

Classy...

Rue puts drugs in his camera to make everything look shiny and cool... I mean, SLS is cool already, but dat?!?

PS still giddy I actually saw one in person. and at that moment there was another car freak shooting it at the same time as me!

 

[Kamuifanboy]

i didn't take this photo. But This is off my friends Facebook. He owns this which has 607HP and a E63 AMG.

ps - I do see it on the streets quite often, but I don't feel like taking a picture because I know him and if he saw that would be a bit odd.

 

[Rue]

The SLS grows on me more and more. This sat outside my office window at the moment...

Tempted to go down and take a wide-angle shot of the front head on.

Tempted isn't enough, sir. The car was sick enough to go down and ask the guy for a peek under the hood and inside. 15 minutes.


Never again.

 

[SuperShouden]

Nice Ferrari's Icy J. And a nice GT-R and Bentley behind the 458, as well.

 

[McLaren]

Classy...

Rue, I'm sure you've posted it before, what camera did you upgrade to again?

 

[Rue]

I didn't, I've been using the D80 since I went DSLR a year ago. Upgrading isn't an option for me at the moment, I will shoot this thing into the ground then hopefully get a 2nd hand D700 later.

Some more from last weekend...

[AMCNUT]

Rue, you have an awfully good vantage point - your photos are amazing!👍 Are you a professional photographer or is it just a hobby?

 

[Cano]

That Lambo is awesomely crisp-clear!

 

[Rue]

Yeah, it came out nice and crisp and I didn't lose a lot of the detail which tends to happen with photos of white cars. Thanks for your comments AMCNUT, I'm not a professional photographer by any stretch of the imagination, but I would love to do something with photography one day.

A few more from last weekend...

Matte Aston Martin DB...

Maserati GT

Audi R8

 

[jeffgoddin]

Got a lead on where to look on this new side of town, and on a sunny but freezing day, this is what I found:

F360

Very well kept AW10 MR2

GT-R

M3

why?

Evora?

997 (I think) Turbo

old Porsche with its top down...

SVX, also in excellent condition for a 90's car

 

[theotherspongey]

A blurry picture I took of a Maserati 3200 GT (Don't believe me? Look up a picture and look at the wheels):

370z Roadster:

A Porsche; don't know the exact model:

There are other cars that I saw (Ferrari BB 512, Nissan GT-R, Lexus IS-F) But the pictures are extremely blurry due to the bus I was riding on (It was bumpy and moving fast) So I won't post those.

 

[astrosdude91]

A blurry picture I took of a Maserati 3200 GT (Don't believe me? Look up a picture and look at the wheels):

I believe that's a Quattroporte.

 

[RocZX]

A Porsche; don't know the exact model:

That is NYC.

 

[theotherspongey]

That is NYC.

I went there for a trip.

I believe that's a Quattroporte.

It was a coupe.

 

[Guml8all]

It was a coupe.

Are you sure? That really really really looks like a Quattroporte..

Anyways..

Blurry pics of:

Cali

360

Sorry for the quality :/

 

[jeffgoddin]

Getting desperate in the winter months, now shooting things I would've passed over not that long ago...

Old muscle

M3

C63

old M5, really like the vanity plate!

 

[Cano]

Old muscle

Yeah, 1967 firebird. However, the really relevant part of this car are the wheels. It's wearing an extremely rare set of Motorwheel Spyder magnesium wheels. They are a rarity to see on the streets nowadays.

 

[jeffgoddin]

All I know is I spotted an old muscle car that looked especially good from a distance. Wheels were certainly part of it. Thanks for the education! And, how the hell do you know this stuff???
