Ok well, today I wanted some new pics and decided to change my playground for once :D so I drove the 60 km from Lausanne to Geneva and was blew away :D hell, I didn't remember Geneva to be so incredibly stuffed with supercars :D
Lausanne is already quite above the average, but Geneva beeing basically the second economic pole in Switzerland is even more frantic! And when you couple this with a terrific sunny Sunday, not to hot, you can understand why nice cars were litterally everywhere! I missed tons of them just because while running toward a stoplight to get one, another one was mabye arriving from another direction and so on.. wicked :D also called paradise for car pics hunters :D

Anyway let's cut it short, here are the pics

On the road :) already the first one! Alpina!

For a moment I thought it was the same car passing by twice.. then I check the plates.. yes indeed, I spotted TWO GT3 RS in just 15 minutes! And not on a track!

An almost miss (and I already missed the same Murci twice in the previous minutes!!) Luckily the other car is an M3 and not a crappy one :D

Amazing! A white Diablo VT! I don't like the wing but still damn sexy! Is it the same spotted by dani?

I don't know the name of this Ferrari, maybe stradale can help us, but I think that it's the same model I saw in this garage in Maranello:

@ TT and dropot2: TT was right, it is a Ferrari 330 GTC. The 365 GTC looks almost identical, but the easiest way to spot the difference is look at the louvres. The 330 GTC has louvres in the sides, as can be seen in both TT's and dropot's pic. The 365 GTC has no side louvres, but vents on the upper side of the nose.

totaly fucking insane collection man

nice reverse parking by the 6 series,

does you're gf hold the wheel when you drive, so you don't crash while taking pictures!

TT
09-06-2004, 01:19 PM
LOL I was there alone and I took all the pics beside the Espada one and of course the Aplina while standing beside the road or walking around ;) but usually she just tries to act as if she doesn't notice my behaviour :D

The white color makes the cars looking older ... you've just to watch TT's topic about Affolter, the white testarossa is ulgy (that's MY opinion and I share it :wink: ) :?
