Not an AMG model, just a regular S Class with a fancy exhaust, in Lugano

And this was probably my 10'000th 996 ;)

I absolutely love blue Porsches, and a C4S is also a nice base :D sadly the light/shadows conditions were crap.

[No.1]

Very nice 190E 8)

The 987 (didn't know that before Thx :wink: ) looks great in the pic, and even better in real life. It's a tightened up design, and the few that i have seen (all S's so far :? ) look a little mini-CGT-ish :D No bad thing.

The backdrop on the first S-Class pic is amazing.

Another great update TT... keep 'em coming :D

[dingo]

The Boxster is very nice, especially in black. I saw my first one this week also abd was very impressed with it (no pics though :( ).
I agree with you on blue 911's - very appealing. The RS4 is great and I am still waiting to see one over here :?
Thanks for the update :wink:

EDIT: just noticed the 2 M3's in the background of the 987.....you didn't miss them did you?

[topgeartom]

Very nice TT, i love the RS4 pic, and the locations on most of the pics look really nice. Ive been to both Lausanne and Lugano i think ( some time back)

Well I saw them of course, but in that trip to my family I saw so many cars that I didn't stop for two "regular" M3, especially since a couple of witnesses were already pointing at me after the Boxster pics :D

[komotar]

The 190 16V is one of the meanest coolest gangsta mercs ever. I just love the car!

Ofcorse I'd be happy to see a tenth of the Audi RS models you see :?

red suits the car really good.

Too bad about the bad light ( 4S, beautifull colour ). I hate when that hapens. I like it bes when it's cloudy or first light early morning.....

Congrats on the 10000th 996 pic :wink:

The new boxter looks nice

thx!

[1zippo1]

thx for the new pics TT. They're very nice, as allways :wink:

The 987 Boxster is indeed a beautifull car. The old boxster wasn't too bad, but this is way better!

And I love the 3200GT. Instead of making it nicer, they made it worse with the new versions. I'm very curious about the successor though which should arrive pretty soon.

[Wutputt]

Maybe no supercars, but it's a nice update. That fully black C43 AMG looks so gorgeous and must be pretty exclusive since AMG wasn't yet that popular in those days. The pics of the new Boxster are very good. The car also looks far better than its predecessor. And of course do I like the 3200 GT pic.

[raphaelws]

very nice ones!!

[budagboy2]

RS4 looks great in red, nice pics :)

[Pimp Racer]

C43 and 190E!!! NICE!!! And BLACK! :D

[stmoritzer]

Thanks for the update, your 70th update - congratulations :wink:

I like the red RS4 most, haven't seen many of them on the streets, with nice rims :)

[Schwalbe]

Wow !! It's one of the most beautiful pictures of red B5 Audi RS4 that I saw so far. :D
It's definitively my new Wallpaper now. :wink:

Thanks a lot TT !

Question to TT:

Don't you ever feel like a funny person walking around taking pictures at others cars? Because here in Sweden, Stockholm, I'm always getting these wierd looks from people when setting up my camera and stuff. Quite annoying... :?

NOW, the spring has come to Sweden and I WILL bring you some sportscars from Stockholm, Sweden! :D :D

[TT]

Well, at first it was like that, now I don't bother anymore, I just do what I have to do and the others can keep wondering :D
It's when it is late in the afternoon and I use the tripod that it becomes funnier :D

but I am sure most ppl think I am taking just normal "tourist pics" since I don't take my pics from 2 feet away but a bit more ;)

[SPEEDKILLAR]

Damn, gorgeous 190, I would love to get my hands on one of those, great collector's item :D

thanks TT

haha...I know the feeling exactly, it can feel akward at times. If I am taking a pic of a Ferrari I don't care as everyone can see its a special car, but a more subdued car (e.g. M3) some people must think why is that idiot taking a pic of THAT :P
I often try and make it look like I am taking 'tourist' pics - its handy if its on the foreshore since I just pretend I am taking pics of the city skyline :D
