[FuegoTurbo]

Nice shots 8)

One of the sexiest cars ever? > a Jaguar Type E :wink:

[Darkel]

Another Geneva trip :fadein:
The Brabus rims on the S-class are great.

A sunny day, finally ! :D

[adamwich]

Thanks a lot TT

Great pictures!

[mindgam3]

thanks for the photos. that e type is STUNNING! ;)

[Fleischmann]

Wonderful cars !! And how surprised I was when I spotted an E-type in my hometown!! And my bro mentioned to two stadning near this club called "Jazz cafe" close to me. but when I got to the palce, the cars were no longer there :/ And I saw a mustang 71'a lately and there is a 645 on german plates standing 50 metres from my house everyday :D:D:D

Cool pics as usuual TT :D Thx a lot :D:D:D

[TT]

Indeed it amazing, but Type E aren't that rare on the road! It is simply marvellous! And marvellous to see people not only using a Murci as a daily drive, but also a classic car!!!

[skituner]

thanks TT
great pics as always

[callen]

great pics TT, i love the E type, i only just saw my first ever last month some time, and it looks stunning in person. i love the turbo cab as well....there seems to be an endles supply of exotics and high priced autos in geneva! :D

[budagboy2]

Great shots as usuall, TT do you have anymore pics of the rs4 in your sig? those rims look sweet

[dingo]

Great pictures man....love the Murci, that girl behind it in the 2nd pic is giving you an evil look. :D
You are spending alot of time in Geneva lately, will have to move there soon. :wink:
How much time did you spend there to get these pictures, and do you just walk around the city looking for the cars?

[TT]

Great shots as usuall, TT do you have anymore pics of the rs4 in your sig? those rims look sweet

Sorry Mike, not even an highres.. it was taken time ago when I was not really an high-res freak, and anyway quality sucks... pretty strange: I never saw that car again in the past months :(

How much time did you spend there to get these pictures, and do you just walk around the city looking for the cars?

Uhm.. the tipical Geneva mission lasts 2 hours. I just drive there, park the car and go around the usual places looking for something to shoot ;)
And usually I do that around noon, so in the 2 hours there is also a little break to eat something :)
Anyway it's always a pleasure, not only for the cars, but also because, despite the heavy traffic, Geneva is a nice place to have a walk and just look at the lake :)

[aks]

woah TT, the E-Type was way before my time but the curves on that thing are beautiful!! i've never seen one in Sydney :(

[cho_888]

i love the s-class and the Z8 they are sick. the SL 55 seems like a commodore over there but i still love it!

[possessed_beaver]

nice pictures, what are you're thoughts about the evo 8?

[TT]

Well, not sure what you would like to know, but the fact it is VERY rare compared to the Impreza WRX makes it a very desirable car IMO! Not sure if around here you can have any of the various FQ models, and no idea about prices or if they are officially imported or just grey ones, but for sure there must be something that makes it so rare! I'd say 50 WRX and 1 EVO

[sikx5]

thats a awesome S-Class...and the murci...always a pleasure...thanks for the pics TT :mrgreen:

[CSedl87]

I love the first shot of the Murci, it's yellowness just stands out, gotta go change my pants now... And Geneva what a gorgeous city. We stayed at the swissotel last year in July. The techno convention, and the big fireworks display was going on. Alot of very nice cars there. And good pics TT!

[Stikz]

sweet pics tt, thanks

[mclaren_Gt]

TT you look all this cars in the same day?

wow i have to go in my vacations :D

[dingo]

^ if you read TT's post on the previous page he said that he spent 2 hours in Geneva to take these pictures. :wink:

[SPEEDCORE]

Some nice cars, but the Murcielago is my fav :D

[TT]

^ if you read TT's post on the previous page he said that he spemt 2 hours in Geneva to take these pictures. :wink:

Yup a 2 hours holyday in Geneva should be ok for some nice car sightings ;)

BTW today I was out in town (Lausanne) and in 15 minutes time I saw a red 512TR (blurry pic) and a superb black 348 (better pic) ;) not that bad afterall :D

[dingo]

Another good day in Switzerland by the sounds of it, looking forward to your upcoming post in this section. :D

[TT]

Well, the next post will be Friday for the rental TT ;) and in there also these two prancing horses ;) then you will have to wait for Saturday and the Supercar Rally 2004 special ;)

[frozzu]

As usual the pics are great. Thanks TT

[Daggernite]

TT nice pics! Do you do any professional work? or is it a hobby? you have a good atitute, and good skill in taking photos, but the real hard part I found when tryin to take pics of cars is you have to find them first, and then if there on the move you got to keep up to them. Sometimes there gone in a instant before you can even turn your camra on!! how do you get around that problem?

Im just trying to say good work man!

HAHA thanks, and indeed it is just an hobby. Of course I wouldn't mind to have such a job :D but not sure I really qualify...
You can just imagine anyway how many nice pics I missed just because I was 1 second too late or just 5 minutes too early in the right place...
It's just about luck usually :D

[Ford Capri 2.8i]

Thanks for the pics TT of course .....and naturally it wasnt a bad day for you, of course not....apart from the usual beauty of the 911, the merc SL, the 360 Modena.......the E-Type was greatest surprise of this topic for me, it just looks astonishing.....and one of the most beautiful cars ever for me certainly....the other two good surprised were just the brabus merc S class....it looks great in black....and the Maserati Ghibli as well....once the maseratis name is not in the best moment, i think that the Ghibli in question must be on sale in a good price and it will be a very interesting chance to buy it as far as i know .....BTW TT do you have any clue how much the maserati costs?

Finally....of course that you werent capable of following the 360 modena with your 320...if so...you must have been a professional driver on racetrack rather than the JW moderator

[TT]

No clue, it was sold already or just arrived and still no price tag on it.

[Ford Capri 2.8i]

No problem....there are some ads which have the price of the cars among other details about the description of the car whereas others have basically the phone number and not much much more.....thanks anyway TT

[martin100]

This must have been an awesome day for you seeing all these outstanding cars :shock: All the SL55s and Bentley GTs... I almost wet myself when i see an SL55 once or twice in a year :wink:

[dingo]

martin100, are you sure you live in Germany? I would have thought that SL's and nice BMW's would be very common, they sure were the last time I was there. :wink:
