Ok, after a couple of pretty nice events, we are back to regular car sightings :D by regular I mean "in the streets" ;)

Already with the next update we will take a quick tour into some dealerships for a while, but for now here is what I found in the streets of Geneva :D

Alpina B3 aren't that rare, but I never saw a cabrio version! And definitely a nice color instead of the usual blue or grey :D it was for sale too, but I think it was sold since I never saw it again.

Bentley Turbo R, actually nothing special, but well, it's a Bentley afterall :bah:

This Modena can be seen in the banks' area every single day of the year :) talk about a daily drive

I hunted the two Gemballa Cayennes of Geneva quite a lot, and finally I was lucky back in February and saw the first one (I called it a GT600, but in fact I have no idea...). (and I also found finally the second one this week, a black GT550 ;))

Its good to see a daily-driven F360 - the type of owner we like :D I can't say the same for the owner of the 996 - better to fit in with the crowd than standout like that :?
Great quality as usual - thanks :D

superb pictures....

that 996 has to be the ugliest ever. Who in thir right mind would choose that colour...

I mean, I think your eyes would start to hurt if you were in the car more than 10 minutes :?

Gemballa looks mean. One hell of a sighting 8)

That green Alpina loos great.

Masers look good as always...

thy for the pics...

Thanks TT for another streetreport!

LOL for the green 996

TheGemballa is nice and luckily not black "Gemballa" rims on that one. I'm looking foreward for the black GT550.
Saved the blue 996 and the Turbo combo too!

A Ferrari parked curbside is one of the coolest way to "present" your car - telling everybody you're not keeping it in a garage for few rides to Ferrari-meeting or so, no- this Ferrari is just a "regular" drive for me 8)

The Masers are nice as well, I like the blue color of the 4200GT

Have a nice weekend

Some good regular car sightings. Nice B3, I never even knew it was available as a cabrio! The owner of the 996 with the green interior doesn't have taste, imo. It just looks ugly to me, and I also don't like its colour painted wheels.

My favourite pic is the 360 shot from behind. The 360 looks very neat in it.

Nice pictures TT !!! Always cool to see such cars, especially up close and personnel like this :fadein: I'm fond of the Quattroporte, great picture that is. I have seen such a car a few times, a guy who lives in my neighbourhood has one just like that, the sound of it when it accelerates is superb !!!

Cheers
