Most likely a local of my town as I've seen it several times. A Dodge Viper RT/10 with a license plate reading "HISS." There was another RT/10 today on my way home from work in black with white stripes, but no pics so...not legit. :lol:

a few today

this had a siren and flames...


JCW GP, my first, only 2000 made?


F-Type! My first!








1931 Ford




tiny little F430 in there... a great end to a day, even if the photo sucks


a great end because not only did I see my first F-Type, but just before I saw that F430, I spotted this, my first in-the-wild 458!


mixed in the day, also

Chrysler 300 SRT-8


ZL-1


funny plate... and I don't know, maybe just the lighting or angle, but this E92 looked "better" somehow than the usual M3...


E36 M3 with some AC Schnitzer bits... not sure which ones
 

For a second I thought that was the famous Chrysler 300-Flying Spur :sly: I saw one a couple months ago with fake Bentley badges and nice spots I like that F-Type

Anyway I went to Griot's today and they moved the showroom around. I know anything not "in the wild" is frowned upon in this thread but some people can't just get up in the morning and be like, "Oh, I'm going to buy some wax and microfiber towels at Griot's today" nor see a McLaren M4A, M6A, and an M23 right next to each other. It's late and I'll post the pics tomorrow

Edit: here are the pics (not exactly "tomorrow" :lol:)
I posted some pics awhile ago in some thread of some other cars in the Griot's showroom that were also on the other side of me but didn't take new photos (consisting of a real '64 Shelby Cobra, 300SL roadster, and a '64 Jag XKE convertible, '64 1/2 mustang and a Ferrari Daytona)
From today:
M6A


left->Right: M23, M4A, M6A


A charger at safeway


The past few weeks:
a Rolls-Royce, not a new one, just kind of interesting to see around


A Ford Falcon I believe


I believe it's a '40 Ford Tudor Sedan

Going on a summer trip on Monday to Canada and a few east coast cities. I'll try and get some pics/videos if I see anything rare/unique.
 
That Charger, parking like a 🤬

When you own a car you spend good money on.

You will bloody hate it when someone dings it cause they do not pay attention or care when they open their car doors.

Cars have gotten wider since 10 years ago.
Parking bays have stayed the same.


And that F-Type is freak-en sweet.

I would hate it for someone to ding a cheap car I own.

While I was in Indy I saw a 300 with fake Bentley badges tailgating slipstreaming a Real Bentley with real badges. :lol:
 
I wish I would have got a picture of the car show I drove past yesterday, a Grabber Blue 1970 Mustang Boss 429 (likely a clone) was headed down the street.

Guess I'm lying though because I couldn't get a pic lol
 
1950 Olds :D also, I don't think your mini is a GP, it lacks the rear diffuser.

Thanks!

And, makes sense, the 2 JCW's I've seen have both had the JCW badge where the Cooper S badge is on this one, and no Cooper S badge. So, this guy got a GP spoiler and a couple of badges to look cool and slapped it on his Cooper S. Actually, smart guy, get 90% of the driving performance, and 90% of the appearance, for like $10,000 less. And it'll drive better on anything but a perfect road, which the JCW GP needs to not disintegrate your spine.

I don't know, it looks pretty genuine to me. It has all the bits: shiny metal in the diffuser, rear spoiler, apparent lack of rear seats,and the sour-spoke wheels.

Would that be a previous generation GP? Because I know for sure the most recent one has a pretty prominent rear diffuser.
 
This Corvette Grand Sport came into work today and I got a ride in it! :D




Then I saw this nice first gen Celica drove by and luckily get caught in traffic.
 
Cool Celica! 👍

My recent shots:
Impreza WRX STi, seems like it's lightly tuned.
