EDIT: Montreal Winter Street Sighting

[hamlet]

Hi Guys,

I was away for a while because I was (and I am still...) on hollidays in Montreal. Here is a couple of pics I made in the street. In fact, it is quite rare to see "sporty" cars because of the weather conditions but I could at least spot this SL600RR RennTech...never seen before! Does someone have some infos about it?

In addition, a few pics of the F1 track covered with snow and ice...

[dutchmasterflex]

looking at these pictures is making me cold and remind me to visit Montreal as soon as it gets warmer :)

[adamwich]

Pretty nice Mercedes SL600 RR Renntech! :D

[No.1]

Thanks for sharing your pics :good:

I like the pics of the track, and the Casino structure looks cool in the photos - if a little outdated

Like the dirty Impreza :twisted:

Enjoy the rest of your holiday! 8)

I'm always happy to see pictures of Montréal here at JW. It's even more interesting to meet a cool forum member who visit Montréal. As you could note, the temperature here in Québec is really special, one day we have a snow storm, next day we have -25°C, next day +9°C, you can even see an Ice storm the next day. :silly:

It's the reason why you can't see many supercars in winter in Québec...they sleep in the garages. But, it's the period of the year which Audi quattro and Subaru WRX dominate the road. :twisted:

Fortunately you will have the chance to see great supercars next monday at the car show. I see you there buddy. :wink:

Cheers !

Looks Familure! Nice pictures! :D Look foward to meeting you and Schwalbe Monday at the Show. 8)

The final ones... Sorry but that was not the best period of the year to spot some exotics in Montreal. I hope I can come back in summer time.

For the pics of the car show, I just need some more time to process them. I will probably do it when I will be back home.

Bye.

Montreal is about 5 hours of where I live, so I went there a couple of time, but the greatest cars I've seen were Ferrari 360 and what I think was an Aston Martin vanquish. I'm I just not lucky(of course they were great sightings, but I didn't met a lot of diversity), or ,except of all the mercedes and BMW, that's all we can see? I'm asking the question particularly to Schwalbe because he lives there!! (by the way, for the next time I'll come , where are the best places to see great cars in Montreal??)

[Schwalbe]

Thanks again Hamlet for your new Scooby pix. :D

The best time of the year to see exotics cars it's always in the summer, particularly during the F1 Grand Prix week, during this special week at the beginning of June you can see tons of exotic cars in Montréal downtown. The best spots are on Crescent, Peel and St-Laurent streets. During all the year you can always go to Porsche/Ferrari/Lambo car dealers in Montréal. :wink:

wow nice edit, thanks for the bmw 6 :P
