Well... spotting a rare car in Helsinki isn't as impressive as seeing one in Oulu (Sorry yanks, you propably have no idea what we are on about when speaking about places in Finland ). But nevertheless that Carrera GT is a very nice spot .

Anyway... I got wondering... The DB9 had studded tyres on it. Does some tyre company really make that kind of tyres as serial production or are they custom build?

A few I found lying around on my computer, some of them aren't "random":

Looks a bit boring in silver (wow, my arm )


Looks exactly like Hammond's one



Rice?




Hmm

^ I think he's talking about the bodykit on it... but what's retarded about the plate? It's one of those things dealers hang off the back when you go on a test drive.

Never seen such a thing. I figured they just had a couple cars, 1 of each model, with trip permits.

I don't know anything about motorbikes, but this Yamaha looked nice:


Honda S2000 (Notice there's a Mazda in each picture )

This is where I took the picture of the Jag XK120, so probably the bloke is a car enthusiast

Tuned Elise



Crappy phone shot doesn't show the massive diffuser it had



Oh, and this beauty








On a side note, with all these camera phones.. why don't they just take a simple Pocket camera and build in some phone functionality into it?
Or are the newer camera on mobiles really getting better?
