So yesterday I saw a nice Bentley (Flying Spur, I believe) drive by while I was asking to grab lunch. I tried to snap a pic with my phone, but was too slow to get one. But I've often thought "I should start a thread on the forum with cool cars I see when I'm out and about", so that's what I'm doing. Of course, everyone is welcome to post pics as well, but let's make it cars you actually see in person rather than something you've found online etc. Here's a terrible pic of an Alpina B7 that I pass by nearly everyday at my office parking garage. I've always liked his license plate "QK PNZR": Attachments:

There's also an Aston Martin Vantage (V12 S model, I think) that one guy keeps in the same garage, but it almost always has a cover on it. Next time I see it "naked", I'll snap a pic. And next time F1 comes to town, I'll be sure to get pics of some of the cool stuff that shows up in town with that circus. In the meantime, I'll try to be quicker with the camera when cool cars cruise by.

There's a guy near me who owns a DB9. I laugh every time I see him at the supermarket because he parks it as far from every other car as he can get.
I saw a Gallardo on the highway a few days ago. I was surprised because there was nice wintery mix of freezing rain and snow. I know I would want my $200,000 car covered in road salt.

There's an Audi that parks in my street, used to have the number plate SD12 ZZN - always thought it was quite cool for the D12/DDZN mob - alas I never got a pic of it and the car now has a personalized plate on it.

Speaking of Gallardos in the winter, i sometimes catch a glimpse of a student, doesnt look older than 20, going to a community college, driving a 2011 Superleggera As for cars ive taken pics of, heres some Elegys from a few weeks back Attachments:

You'd think the local drug dealer would keep a lower profile.

I think theyre part of this group, Canadian Sports Car Club, CSCC, though my buddies refer to it as the Chinese Sports Car Club, for obvious reasons. The Gallardo owner is also part of CSCC. Hmm... Maybe i should move my business to China.

Saw this McLaren today when walking back to the office. It's a pretty crappy pic from my cellphone, but didn't have a ton of time to get a good one. Also thought the valet guys at one restaurant had some fun lining up these triplets:

Saw a lambo murchielago (spelling?) in town last week. Didn't get a pic as it was swarming with kids but the number player was "4321 GO".
Once goodwood festival of speed and the revival kicks in I should get some epic pics of cars into town as goodwood is only a mile away.

This one's a bit different than the usual, but I couldn't resist. Yes those are 26's, or so says his sticker on the window. I will now try to recreate this car in GTA with a surge and SUV rims. If only there was a "raised" option for suspension. To be fair, when I stepped outside the hoke depot store, I could hear the rattling of this car from the monster stereo pounding away. Also, he'd done a conversion on the doors so they opened up instead of out, similar to maybe an 80's lambo door. Wish I'd been able to capture that. Attachments:

nothing special today, just an Infiniti G35 with a body kit, typical ricer stuff, pink wrap, neon, gold rims, being driven by a clown.

Finally saw the Aston Martin in office my garage with the cover off. Here's a shot: and saw another one out just a day later. not quite as nice, but the license plate made me laugh: I hate to think how much the first guy pays just to own that thing. Each of the two reserved parking spots he's taking up are at least $250/month. So $500+/mo just to park/store it, then add in insurance, fuel, upkeep, etc. but I guess you don't spend $200k on a car if you have any financial worries.

Polaris Slingshot I saw this on the road the other day. We'll pretend I wasn't driving when I took the picture. Not cool car, but I saw it on Independence Day and the colors and condition just screamed 'Murica to me.
