showed up at my market today


wth?!? another SLS!



and perhaps the best supercar I've seen to date, LP 570-4 Spyder Performante






California


and a Hybrid!


small block chevy...
 
^ Edit: on second thought, I think it is a California judging from the exhausts which I can barely see :)

And that's a sexy Lambo :drool:
 
Since the Concours show I was going to today is actually tomorrow and they are just racing today, we drove an hour to this lodge and this is all we saw. Since I figured I'd get pictures of stuff on the way out, I missed out on a Porsche 356 and a Shelby GT500. Not a new one, an old one. But the Shelby was on a trailer so it'll likely be there tomorrow.

I'm pretty sure that's a 599 not a California.

Those 3 arrows in green/white/red are pretty cool! Haven't seen that before. Cool car too 👍
 
Well from our suite in Vegas we could see te top of this garage some nice stuff down there haha

Sweet, my first then! Looked great from the front but by the time I got home I had forgotten the details and this shot isn't much to go on if you're not familiar, plus I'd assumed it must be a California at first glance since I've seen a few of those around, and knew that 599's are uncommon or practically nonexistent here (as I commented in fact a few pages back!)

Woo hoo! 599! That makes this spotting day one of the best ever for me then!
 
I'm not too happy. I didn't take a picture of an MC Stradale as I considered it to be "just a GranTurismo" - Which doesn't make any sense, as I photograph any Maserati anyway. Also saw an R8, and a black 458 on the way home.

The main place to see nice cars was closed. Do you know why? So some idiots can walk around with a golden torch for that big sports day coming up this year in London...

Even so, saw these. :dopey:

GranTurismo in a car park, there was a black one that left as we were entering. Also a batch of AMG's, M's and Porsches that I fail to find interesting.

An M3 CSL, believe they made 4000 or so?

And this lovely cherry DB9 :3

Just a couple spots. :p


Very clean SL600; looked immaculate. No imperfections at all. Nice!

Kinda hard to see, but this is a GMC Yukon XL, in matte black. :dopey:
Sounds dicey, but it actually looked really nice. The look kinda suits it.

A Porsche Panamera. Another crappy cell pic (Remember the GT?)

Also...

An Alpina B7. It was in a bit of a hurry, and my DSLR was pulled out just as it went out of sight. It was adjusted very poorly

okay, okay, was going on my recent memory of rewatching Wangan Midnight, for some reason I thought they kept referring to this version as S31, but yeah, now that you smack me on the head a little, that was the Devil Z, the Z32 was this one.

Still, pretty clean, right?

Yeah, not enough Z32s in Hong Kong for some reason or other. Going past the bar whilst waiting for my flight last night.

Let me put it that way - they say it's a miracle to see one of those.

Wow, really? The owner of a garage local to me has one..... Along with a mint escort cosworth, and a lancia delta integrale lol. Will have to try get some snaps

Amongst other things today.

Seen this once before being chased by a black 599GTO but I was driving the other way and was caught off guard so I am glad I found it again to take a pic.

One rarely sees a Murcielago out in the wild in Sydney (I think I have honestly seen like...3 or 4 in the wild) so an Aventador is kinda a big deal. Ferraris seem to be a bit more whatever but Lambos always seem a bit rarer in the city for the most part.

Car gets extra points for colour matching brake calipers, number plate and engine brace, all in orange. Boss car.

Pleas excuse the rather bad phone pic.

I spy an E63 AMG ;). Though I don't blame you for missing it in front of an Aventador :lol:.

Most of them are stored away or only driven on circuit, that's why it's pretty special to see one of them on the streets :D

AMG Merc's aren't rare though ;)

Usually this one would get a second look form me as I rather admire the larger 63s and they have a habit of making a birlliant noise off the line. Also this one was sporting some really nice black wheels and some carbon fibre add ons (not an in-house job though) but yeah....matte black Aventador is matte black Aventador lol.
