Excursions fit in Italy? I don't mind them here, but can't imagine trying to park one in europe....

Great catches TT. That E55 shot is gorgeous, and I love that limo in front of the ski mural too. The RS6s look beastly as ever too

This winter car gallery is really nice ! The RS4-RS6-E55 pics are my favorite. :D

The black Mercedes limousine is badass. With a car like that, I'm sure the owner sells drug. :lol:

Nice work TT! :D

The E55 pic is sweet, and the Maybach, wow! Even though the Maybach looks a little bit dorky hahhaha. Does that GT3 look-a-like have turbo wheels?

TT you forgot to post the picture of the Cayenne on this page

TT you forgot to post the picture of the Cayenne on this page

Right, but usually I post only some of the pics in the topic since anyway (hopefully), ppl will see the other ones by clicking them :P

... Does that GT3 look-a-like have turbo wheels?

Nope.

Very nice pics. I love the ones with the cars in the snow. And the pic with the Maybach and the little lights in the background looks gorgeous, just like the Conti GT a coulple of weeks ago.

unless the GT3 had a carphone installed aftermarket, it's a fake
you can't have navigation or carphone in a GT3, so no antenna on top :idea:

Wow nice sightings, i love the GTA. just on a slightly related topic does snow ruin paint after a few days?, id imagine it frost burns the gloss?

01-20-2005, 10:20 AM

I am no expert for the snow matter.. but what ruins a car more than snow during winter is for sure the tons of salt threw on our roads. And when it's not salt it's tiny little stones wich usually fly around when cars pass and hit yours...

The snow itself, the one coming directly from the sky onto your car is water afterall, so no big deal IMO, and never had problems with it.. anyway it won't stay on your car for weeks :D

the E55 for instance, you can see it in my previous topic, with much more snow, and in this topic it was just 2 days later :)

No, the snow itself will not do any "damage" (also if frozen on the car), but as TT says the salt and the tiny crushed stones they use to prevent from too icy streets are are awful to the gloss of your car.....

speaking about gloss and shining ...

please have a look at the Maybach from the other side

this is another masterpiece from TT, respect to the photographer

01-20-2005, 11:09 AM

LOL thanks dude, but actually I had just two or three possible angles to take pics of it since it was parked between two other cars :D so it was basically luck :D

why didn't you blow the car in the back up :wink: , it really disturbs the ambiance

these pics challange me - I'll to try to catch some cars the next time I?m in StM, (maybe in front of the Palace Hotel or so)

Yeah it's a good idea, in the summer you can always spot some nice cars, but not as many as I always hope. In front of the Palace I actually saw my ONLY Porsche 959, it was ages ago, it was white and I wasn't into car pictures back then :(
