You can distinctly see the Bentley Logo.

I know........but from a distance it's hard to tell whether it's a Bentley or a Rolls Royce.

Saw this a moment ago, a BMW 2002i

I think these are not that common, as this is the only one I've seen so far, quite a few 2002's though

07 plates. Imported car?

Possibly......since the law has changed to make importing cars easier now.

I've seen a Ferrari 348 in a student parking lot a while ago at a local university here......many Porsches, and tons of Merc's and BMW's........Rose Garden users should know what I'm talking about :D
 
I went to see the c30 yesterday.....amazing car! It was also there in pearl white with brown metallic spoilers and rims....so cool.....and I saw an Orange new S3, a cool S8 and a RS4 Wagon ;D

argh, typo, I saw a S3, a RS4 Wagon and a S8 :D (was thinking faster than typing ^^)
 
there are many more that others and myself noted spotting, but didn't take pictures of, but you can read about them in the thread i linked.
http://www.thewolfweb.com/message_topic.aspx?topic=299667

i didn't bother posting more common cars like evo, s2000, m3, m5, sl-55; cars seen at the nearby race tracks; or pictures people didn't take themselves (like stock footage).

there are a ton a modified 911's in the area that i wish i had pictures of to post for y'all. i live in an area that has the highest concentration of persons with phd's in the world, a professional hockey team, a few major universities, and major divisions or headquarters of hundreds of corporations. research, textiles, technologies, and banking are the main source of wealth. so, there are a ton of affluent 20-40 year olds who like to buy really nice cars.

see? not all of us southerners are simple-minded rock throwers.

hahaha! i never noticed the parking, but you're right! people like to protect their investments, so i can't get mad at them. however, it annoys the piss out of me when i see something like a honda civc double park.


oh, and my apologies to those with dial-up connections.
