In town today was a silver Ferrari California and a white C63 AMG. These cars have probably been posted about before on this thread.

Isn't it a strange marketing tactic from Merc to cancel out the whole RHD market with the Brabus? Seems silly.

Brabus are independent of Mercedes they just tune the motors,id say the guy in London paid a lot less than the cork buyer for his G63!

And in the rather fetching red over backroad brown colour too.

Still confused as to why it was worth posting?

What dictates whether or not it is worthy of a spot in here then?

Nothing dictates it really.

But the common perception through the pages and pages of this thread would suggest that it typically means something rare, different, expensive, stupidly fast, unusual, something a petrolhead might lust after or any combination of these.

A red Suzuki doesn't really fit with any of those categorisations.

And if a contribution is really to be judged on merit - then see how many thanks the different types get

It's nothing more than a glorified kei car tbf.

It's different, quirky, rare in that guise and something a real petrol head will enjoy.

There never was and never will be a price tag on this forum, if that's what you're after just type super car spotting into YouTube, go have a ball.

No pics as I was driving, but I finally saw an i8. It was driving through Fairview in Dublin.

Can't believe someone went to the effort of photographing a Suzuki Ignis then attempted to post it 3 times until they finally succeeded. The fact that it didn't work the first two times was a clear sign that it doesn't belong in this thread.

Sometimes I wonder why I've stuck around so long.

My God, the guy posted a picture of an Ignis Sport which isn't a common car to see on the roads.
They are supposed to be great fun and loved being revved.
If someone posted a picture of a Fiat Barchetta would there be responses along the lines of "sure it's just a Fiat"?.

Meant to be a cool little car and in fairness pretty rare!!
So fair play for the spot and the time taken to post a rare car.

Wonder how many of them are on the roads, think I've only seen 2 in person.

Meant to be a really fun little car.

An unexpected spot in Kyoto.

Agree 100% if a car is special enough for the poster to bother taking a photo and uploading it then I'll enjoy it equally be I'll a Ferrari or a fiat..

To many arrogant pi1cks on here recently who don't know their ass from their elbows ,motoring wise..

Thanks I had a identical red one myself, hence my love for them.. Very rare in Ireland I'd say less than 10 on the road, built so Suzuki could have a brilliant junior WRC car on their hands.

Truly fun and can shame a lot of cars with twice the power and price tag on a track day or backroad .. Sexy lift-Off oversteer too for petrolheads bonus points lol, a guy on backroads.ie just bought my old one

In fairness, Davycc's not wrong imo
Rust Build Quality...All the bpm energy drink reference... etc etc.... there are many posts that fall into the arrogant uninformed style these days. Much more than before perhaps 1-2 years ago.
