Saw this yesterday heading round the back of Edenmore and through Milbrook....not exactly Ferrari territory, first I've seen in my many years of living and growing up in the area.
Sorry about the poor pic, was a beautiful looking GTB. Know it was a GTS that Magnum drove but since yesterday have had the theme tune running through my head - showing my age.........

Was in London for a few days and some of the "Rich Bhoys" in Dublin look like kids compared to the fellas there! Some smashing exotic cars but the Alfa below was the nicest in that I'd seen all the others on here before and plenty driving around....actually got sick of seeing Bently GTs.

Couldn't get a front pic of the Alfa as he floored it from the lights ...the sound was fantastic....and the Merc (well the paint/finish more so than the car itself!) looked smashing in the flesh.

I believe that most of those matt black finishes are "plastic wraps" which I think makes it more pallatable, i.e. you can rip it all off & it protects the paint while it's on there.

I think that Alfa is spot on, in that first picture it looks savage.

+1 on the Alfa.

The matt black looks savage on some cars, think it just needs the right lines. Lambo's in particular look class from some of the photos that have been knocking around. My 2cents worth anyway

Passed a white Audi R8 on Saturday morning heading out of Abbeyleix towards Dublin and then again last night (pretty sure it was the same one) on the M8 heading back in towards Dublin.

I saw the led running lights coming behind me and just though uh oh better pull out of this lane. Fantastic sound from it as he went past. Unfortunately no pics, didn't want to be pulling out my camera at 120km/h

saw a silver one in comin into kilarney on fri night pulling some james bond overtaking moves. looked vicious.saw it again in muckross park hotel car park when we were heading into the pub, a good looking girl in a gym gear was getting out of it sat night. guess it wwas down for the weekend

Blanchardstown...

Cars confirmed;

Imola Red BMW M5 (E39)
Imprezza STI Type UK
Audi RS4 'Black Edition'

And the Boxster S above.

Should be one or two more, but haven't 100% confirmed.

Needless to say, they'll all be very shiney. It's from 11AM - 2PM.

I have no idea what this is, other than it was old (on a ZV plate) and sounded absolutely terrific..

It's a Bitter CD, small German manufacturer (from Berlin I think). They built that coupe and a later model, both based on big Opels like Diplomats and Senators. MD of a company I worked for in Frankfurt had a later model, an SC a very classy car.

Out of the three this would be my favourite! The other two have no "soul" imo!

Agreed...if the engine from the Corvette could somehow be shoe-horned in there

Saw Porsche Panamera in nice color with English plates on M50, it's turn on Sandyford, no photos, because it was too far from me, but i don't like Panamera it's like Mercedes S-Klasse or BMW 7er

Yellow F430 Spider with CS wheels buzzing around Swords at lunch on a private UK plate. Also probably the same Panamera last week, dark blue, on UK plates. Sorry no pics...

Last night I saw a red Corvette parked in the Dublin Bus depot near Bull Island. It was the older model (late 90's-early 00's). No picture as I wasn't driving, I just caught a glimpse of it as we passed.

Also saw an '03 or '04 Merc CL500 in black near Sutton - nothing special, but this one had chrome Porsche 911 Turbo wheels
