Hold the phone... Is that an M3 Evolution? Utterly amazing spot if so. Stupendously rare and a pretty penny. Mark my words, these will hit the $100k mark in the next couple of years.
 
I dunno. Is it?

If it is, it's not only my first M3 E30 spot.
 
One of my best days for spotting today, and I was only out for an hour and a half!

I'm going to put my pics approximately from least interesting to most interesting.

Proof that a truck can be lifted and still look good.

I wouldn't post either of these by themselves, but I seen the opportunity to get them both in one pic so I got it (Cayenne S and Raptor)

My first 500 Abarth! And just a couple weeks ago someone posted one and I asked if they sold them here!

I thought this was a Ranchero but the badge looked like it said El Camino, can someone confirm which it is?

This was in a garage with some old motorcycles. Sorry about the terrible pic, but does anyone know what it is?

My first Evora on the street! I think I may have seen this one at a car show, but not sure. He pulled right up next to us.

2 Audi R8's in one day?! That's twice my yearly average! And it's only April!
 
Yes your Ranchero? Is indeed a Chevrolet El Camino 1973-77.👍

Dat blur? Might be a 66 Chevy Biscayne?

Behind the glass? Could be a '54 Olds? Im' totally guessing.

Green/Unknown= Buick

Blue/Unknown=Olds

I'm sorry to say, but that's actually a V8. Still a great spot though. 👍

April Fools! :p Albeit a few days late.

What now? I'm confused :lol: They were both V10s. You can tell the white one was a V10 by looking at it and I could tell the red one was a V10 by the exhaust note and when I looked back it at, it had the dual circular exhausts, not the quad exhausts like the V8. :confused:

Edit: After a little research, it turns out that it was a V8. He must have put V10 exhaust tips on it. And I thought it sounded like a V10, but it's not like he was going fast :lol: Thanks for the ID, though!

1976 Pontiac Grand Prix SJ


1967 Firebird


2nd gen Firebird


here's an oddball. Pontiac Can Am 1977, only 1200 made? 1/2 year production run? Missing its Trans Am hood scoop.




CLS55 actually dined at Frankie's tonight


Quattroporte... that's blue, right?


sometimes I like when photos come out fuzzy, as when shooting at a distance at dusk. old Ford.


here's that gt500 sitting still. yup, 2013.


and a 2013 BOSS 302


sweet 1968 Charger R/T


very shiny El Camino, from a distance...


E92 M3, what's up with the black tip spoiler?


Audi RS6 C5 being held up by potting soil...


and a B7 RS4!


all while delivering pizza
 
Maybe the M3 Spoiler is part of some upgrade package because most M3's in Tokyo have that thing. I don't mind it, it actually looks pretty nice.

RS4! That's a car I've only seen once in Japan. And that's saying something. One of the most undersold but most amazing cars if you ask me.

Love the "All while delivering Pizza's" comment lol. Guess I need to get a Pizza Delivery Job.
 
New Nissan GTR, Lamborghini Gallardo, Tesla Model S, BMW M6 (I see one at school everyday, so no real biggie) and a Convoy of New Vette C7's. (The photo creds for the C7s go to my friend) I will upload the pics soon, don't you all worry.

and a 2013 BOSS 302

:drool: The red on that GT500 is stunning, and so is the Boss. 👍

I noticed they both have similar plates too. The GT500's plate says 'IS FAST' and the Boss' plate says 'IS BOSS'. :p
 
Of course the one day I dont have my phone on me, i saw two beautiful cars, in less than five minutes (dont want to name any names, cause I dont want to get yelled at for no pics, but ill just tell you they were nice and one of them made me want to drive it. Really bad.:drool:)

Oh, and by the way, what a coincidence crash :lol:
 
The front bumper on that 350Z is rather... unique. I've never seen that before. A mini GTR? :lol:
 
So mad I couldn't take pics on Sunday I saw a C7 Corvette. I'm dead serious it was the real thing, I think it was a famous NBA or NFL player.

^We all have those moments, but I find it best to avoid posting here without pictures. Or else people will attack. :p

Basically. Never really liked them on any other cars... But those bumpers are mostly known to be on Infiniti G35s (aka Nissan Skyline 350GT).
 
Sorry for the quality, iPhone picture... Anyways, I saw a white Ferrari 458 Italia today! Owned by the same man who owns a Porsche Panamera Sport, and an Audi R8 Spyder. Enjoy!

BTW, is this a legit M3? It had a double-pipe exhaust.

IMG00121-20130403-1051_zps57770368.jpg
 
Definitely not a CSL, I think it's a regular E46 with a custom dual exit exhaust. The pipes on an M3 are closer towards the center of the rear bumper.
