These next few are really badly taken; I was in a taxi van and it was parked outside of a hotel in Monnaco.

SLR (couldnt see if it had the McLaren badge on it ):

Looks so Out of place, but I guess they all have to get gas somehow.

What a sight. Only if that Mini wasnt there.

Aside from the M3 right in front of me theres a Carrera GT behind the pedestrians. Damn pedestrians. That car sounded amazing as it cruised down the street.

One of my Fav. cars of all time.

Yet another Continental GT. Frankly at this point I was getting tired of Bentleys.

Is this an Azure? Im not sure what it is.

SL600 AMG

This one was more for the noise the car made as it traveled between the bldgs on one side and the mountain on the other. Amazing.
3 ferrari's traveled down the road in a span of about 3 minutes.

There were a ton other cars I couldnt get pics of, my camera phone is pretty slow. I saw a few Maserati's, SL Black(s), CLK Black, RR's, A8's...I just cant even remember all of them. Monte Carlo has a shitload of rich people.

that sl600 amg is just pathetic, the guy just feels inadequate and tries to fit in, the poor man of the rich people perhaps

anyway nice trip you had there
 
there were plenty of cheaper mercs there, I just didn't bother taking pics of them.

But yeah, you really cant fake being rich in a place like Monte Carlo. Hell I couldnt even get into the casino.
 
The Ferrari you couldn't recognise is a 456, as is the one you're referring to as a 612.
 
And that's an Arnage, the Brooklands is the coupe.

Nice cars, and yeah Bentley's get boring fast. They're pretty ugly to start off and rich-ish people (and completely tasteless properly rich people) buy way too many of them.
 
Oh, and in the CGT shot, that's no M3, it looks far too large.

Anyway, real nice sightings!
 
I actually had the Bentley problem as well when i was in London for a few days. Saw so many of the things that after a while i just went "oh, a Continental". I did photograph many of them though, even if i didn't really get a kick out of seeing one. I'll upload photos soon to my sightings thread.
 
lol, looks like just another day in Monte Carlo then.

it really is supercar central, I was there years ago with my uncle in a lowly Astra estate, and it felt like every other car was 1,000,000 better than ours...

Also, in summer you get super cocks in priceless Armani suits sweating like bastards because they have to drive everywhere open topped in their Porsche turbos, while phoning everyone loudly.
Air con doesn't seem to work when you're stuck in a traffic jam, with the top down...

Did you go through the famous tunnel? I thought it was ridiculously long. If you've ever seen an F1 race there, they zoom through the tunnel and it takes them something like 10 seconds, in a real car, at a normal speed it's more like 2 minutes...
 
naw, I didnt. I was one level less than you...went there by BUS =\. My grand uncle lives like 10 min drive/bus from Monnaco, since I was visiting him we went there a few times.
 
I love the look of the Arnage sedan. Seems to stand out enough to be noticed as important, but no enough to make people think that your just another rich douche (Rolls Royce Phantom)
(gets ready for flames)

I agree.
