Do you not see the similarity. The silver one is an older model.
Have a gander at this

Their cars in the 50's and 60's must be some of the most beautiful ever. That 1960 convertible is simply gorgeous.

After that though, it all goes rather pear-shaped for me.

There were a few classic cars in Dundrum Town Centre today, a few old Rollers, MG's, Merc's and a nice black Corvette (74 I think). They're probably still there if anyone is in the area and wants to see.

On the Champs-Élysées last weekend, stunning.

Nice... I'd imagine that the driver needs a towel to clean the forehead marks of the windows and drool off the body

Do-more

No pic unfortunately but I met a red SLS AMG on the road here in Sweden yesterday, first time to see it.

Shortly afterwards I was passed on the motorway by a 911 GT3RS, moments later we were both passed by a white Mk 1 Skoda Fabia estate which was more brown with rust, I'm sure the Porsche driver was impressed.

Quite a few Porsche Panameras on the road here also, dreadful looking blob of a motor car.

Awesome car, although I've just heard someone describe the 458 as a pimped up MR2 !!

star-pants

Saw it the other day just past Dundrum Garda Station, couldn't get into the carpark to take more/better shots, but it's still pretty

I snapped this on El Camino Real in San Juan Bautista

Need to change my trousers after seeing that 458

Snapped in a traffic jam. Any idea what it is?

I could be wrong but I'm pretty sure that in that yellow and black colour scheme it's a Hertz rental.

In kilkenny yesterday....

how did they go from making beautiful cras to absolutely hideous ones?

Eoin

That looks terrible from that angle.

Not one for taking pictures but had to take a picture of these 2 beaut's that I spotted in London this weekend.

Bugati Veyron
Mercedes SLR Brabus

Bit crazy looking the two of them!

Aside: London is stocked with a1 cars, it got boring seeing astons and bentleys after a day or so

KingIsabella

who wrapped them in tin foil? :O

Are you implying that there is an angle that makes the 5series gt look good?:eek:

there was a recent thread on this, someone posted an image of a turd with a BMW badge, with a slogan "we know that some people will by anything". Pretty apt imo.

Dunno whether this is actually a production car or just a road legal track car.

that's a radical racer, didn't think they were road legal.

Saw a 2008 red GT3 on the M50 yesterday. One of the best looking cars Ive seen.

EDIT: Heres me in the car!

blastman

I didn't get a pic but I could have sworn I saw a McLaren SLR pass me yesterday (going in the opposite direction) somewhere on the M1/A1. Is there even one in the country or am I going mad?

Hey guys,

I'm not sure if anyone will remember me but I used to post a lot in this thread under the username 'AJ!'. I haven't posted here in a long time but I think this is a good excuse to start again.

Ferrari 458 Italia









One of three in Ireland.

Porsche 997 GT3





Ferrari California



Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano



Ferrari 575M Maranello



Ferrari 612 Scaglietti



Nissan GTR



There were five in total. Three on the forecourt, one in the showroom and one in the service department.

This M3 was finished in 'Frozen Grey'. This picture doesn't do the matte paint any justice.



Porsche 997 Turbo Cabriolet



Audi R8 V10



All of these were taken on Boucher Road, Belfast. There were too many cars to photograph, every time I turned around something else was passing by. On the way up to Belfast I saw a brand new red Boxter Spyder with the roof attached. I was behind a dark blue Panamera Turbo for a minute before I saw the GT3. I saw five or six Panamera models during the day. There was a gorgeous GranTurismo S in the Ferrari service department too, white with carbon fiber accents. I didn't manage to get a picture of the new X6M that was ahead of me in traffic either.

Still, the only car I wanted to see was the Italia. The rest were just a bonus.

I know that's not really a first post but..bloody hell, I'm going to say it qualifies as the best first post ever!
