Other Random Car Sightings [Photo Required]

K?belwagens are awesome.
 
I just realized that I think there is a SL65 Black running around my town. I saw it, but I thought it was a normal SL65 so I didn't bother with a picture. But then I noticed the flash body kit, and doubted myself. I need to go on a search tomorrow. Its the second or third time I've seen it running around.
 
^ Nice parking....

In his defense, if I had a pristine 1984 300ZX Anniversary Edition (rare when new, even rarer now), I'd probably park the same way he did. Those fender flares and side skirts are literally irreplaceable.

Also, he was parked way out in the boonies of this particular lot.

There was much more car porn infront of my eyes during this weekend, especially in Monaco which seems to be Maybach heaven, but the heat, the "make-another-picture-of-me"-posing-infront-of-every-shitty-landmark-crazy girlfriend, the marvelous lens-magnetizing topless eye candy at the beach, the fecking large yachts, the damn dead bugs on the windscreen, les gendarmes and around 18 other excuses prevented me from photographing them.

Yup, I was thinking the same. That's how I park too; Big, Lazy, Greedy and Miles away from the building.:lol:
 
lip, how do you keep the camcorder not falling off the dash during cornering or braking?

Have a look in here. To prevent the whole cam flipping over to the right when cornering hard, I attached some double-side velcro on the left side of the mount, which also holds the remote control.

There were a lots of these, almost more than standard 911s.

Bentley GTC on the move.

Brothers in a line.

The new E-class coupe. Sorry, but this can't match A5 in beauty.

A DB9, only Aston I saw whole week and it wasn't even in Italian plates.

F430. I'm just loving that rear diffuser, makes the car looks so low. Well it is low.

An old-school Ferrari on the move. I know I should identify this but I don't.

The only supercar I was able to spot. What a beauty it was, my first LP Murcie, damn that pole ruin both of my shots.


And as a bonus, some Italian style parking :mrgreen:

Just saw a car I can't identify, I wasn't able to take a picture as it went quite fast but I can try to describe it, if anyone knows what it is...

Well I only saw the back which looked like a 90's 911 964 (or something, but it wasn't one anyway).
I don't think it's mid or rear engined as I don't recall seeing vents on the side.

I know it's not much informations to describe it, do not hesitate to post photos of cars you think might be it, I may be able to identify it :)

Well, the standard 964 don't have vents on the side but only on the bonnet, even the 964 Turbo don't have them. The first 911s which have vents in the sides are the 996 Turbo so you could have seen a 964 or 993.

Ok, thanks for the precision, I guess I didn't pay enough attention to all those Porsches pictures I looked :-D
But I don't think it was a 911 anyway, it didn't have the radiator grill at the back, it had a big aftermarket spoiler instead :-D

Damned, this is killing me, I hope I'll see it again :-/

Top looks to be a fairly rare 1957 Ford Starliner.

Bottom is a '62 to '66 Chevy or GMC panel van that someone installed some big ugly windows...
