Ok, officially there were Conti GT literally everywhere!

Check out this crappy pic.. two parked basically next to each other.. and not in a dealership ;)

Now for some proper shots ;)

I just love the E39! Can't wait for my first E60 though!

Just one M3 for the records ;)

The only Ferrari I got today :D nice one ;)

Now this is rare :D pretty rare Lorinser job on this SL!

I said yesterday this Quattroporte is rare.. well here is a new one got today LOL

Ah, S-Klass lovers would never survive to such galore! Every hotel has loads of "official" S-Klasses for their customers and there are public and private taxis and limos too! Plus the ones owned by private persons

Already spotted yesterday.. not a good pic.. but I managed to saw the driver/owner... I can assure you it was not older than 18-20...

Another nice one :D

And a limo!

Nice E55

Combo shot ;)

Some of the usual C4S!
http://www.jabbasworld.net/photopost/data/504/83Porsche_996_Carrera_4S_037-med.jpg (http://www.jabbasworld.net/photopost/showphoto.php?photo=11193&password=&sort=1&size=big&cat=504&page=)

And again the blue RS

And a Turbo while leaving :D
http://www.jabbasworld.net/photopost/data/504/83Porsche_996_Turbo_146-med.jpg (http://www.jabbasworld.net/photopost/showphoto.php?photo=11197&password=&sort=1&size=big&cat=504&page=)

And another C4S, too far away, blurry pic, so no high-res ;)
http://www.jabbasworld.net/photopost/data/504/83col996porsche996c4s.jpg

Sadly also this pretty rare Turbo cabrio was not taken proprely
http://www.jabbasworld.net/photopost/data/504/83col996porsche996turbocabrio.jpg

And now for the strange stuff: a car with US plates is RARE in Switzerland
http://img76.exs.cx/img76/9339/crapnewhampshire.jpg

Two generations, same color, side by side :D lucky shot ;)
http://img76.exs.cx/img76/5120/crapminis.th.jpg (http://img76.exs.cx/my.php?loc=img76&image=crapminis.jpg)

This one was shot for the M3.. didn't turn out very well, but check out the crystal lights on the E60 :?

Of course TT thanks for the pic......apart from the unquestionable beauty of every 911, 360 modena......and the black merc SL would be perfect indeed if it werent for the 2 exhaust system in the middle of the back of the car(apart from ugly exhaust design), they ruin totally the car....in addition....the pic of the 911 GT3 RS is sexy, and the couple of the both Merc S class looks awesome(i dont like the limousine option too much) although i still prefer the first mer S class, of the pic...meanwhile its a curious pic showing the both Continental all together on the park lot......finally, there are two cars that nobody has commented and they deserved to be commented IMO such as the jag XJ6 in front of the first merc S class, ive had the chance to ride in the XJ6 as a codriver, and simply i got a great impression of the car....and the tomaso pantera that youve added TT for today, and which looks stunning as well

Well, there's just too many Lorinser's in Geneva, where the hell are the brabus/kleeman/FAB mercs ? :wink:
But the S-class is beautiful, the driver is maybe young but he has good tastes :mrgreen:
TT
09-17-2004, 05:13 PM
There are a couple of Brabus Smart :P

09-17-2004, 05:16 PM
Lol, a smart is NOT a merc :wink:
I've got some Carlsson A-class pics :mrgreen:

Must be a tuner I think

Some lovely pics TT, I like the old & new Mini shot, and of course any street image of the GT3 RS gets me drooling. The Lorinser Merc and Quattroporte are also noteworthy.

I'm sure you have discussed this previously, but what sort of camera do you use?

In case you are interested, just do a search for "GT3 RS" in the picture gallery and you will find some more pic of the two RS at the autoX event ;)
