You remember the DB9 I saw last week? Well I saw it again today and waited for the owner to return so I could get my ride :P , but after 10mins I had to go so I missed out again. :(

Anyway here are the pics of what else I saw:

A nice MkII 996 GT3:

Then a 996 Turbo in yellow – better than the usual silver and blue. :D

I love this colour on the SLK55 AMG, it’s the first one I have seen and I love it! :D

A lucky shot of an Arnage doing 100kmh on the freeway. :) It’s the 4th one I have seen on the road – but none of them standing still yet. :(

An M Roadster with the new Euro-style plates - it might be the same one I saw a month or so ago just with new plates, not sure :?

E46 M3, no more pics since it started raining so I had to run back to the car! :|

I think that color on the SLK is known as Cubanite (old name was Pewter). A very neat color it is indeed. I know someone in Lausanne with a 350 with that color, looks pretty.

The Porsche 911 seems to be really common there in Perth!

I do see a fair few of them, but unfortunately its usually a Carrera and not GT3's and Turbo's like this week. :wink:

Lovely update, mate. The 850i is an awesome sighting. You don't see them that many. Nice GT3 catch too.

Better luck next time with the DB9. I'll cross my fingers ;)

Not worth it IMO, especially if you get custom ones you will pay a fortune. :(

There are only 996 pictures, no 993's. :wink:
