Default Perth and some of its cars
I went for a drive today to hopefully see some nice cars. I didn't see as many nice cars as some of the other members, since Perth is a little lacking in this area.

I have higher res pics available if anyone wants them.

This is the Perth city skyline:


This is across the river, looking at the Swan Brewery:


A nice SL55 AMG, quite a rare car here:



Maserati, we have the second highest number of them per capita (to Italy)


LOL...a Skyline that thinks its a plane:

nice pics man, but i hate those rims on the SL55 AMG. They look so cheap. If you can afford that car you should be able to upgrade the wheels.

If you could post the high-res picture of Perth's skyline (no not the car ) as long as the two of the SL and the Maser Spider one, it would be nice

Upgrade to what? Keep in mind those are AMG wheels, man! Theh're not ghetto bangin' chrome Dubs!

I love the SL and the Maserati is also very sexy.

Indeed, I think the SL with those "stock" wheels is perfect

Sorry if you didn't saw as many cars as you wanted, but the cars and the pics are very cool, and the city is very beautiful and worths the ride for itself.

I have a friend of mine working in Camberra, I'll ask her about Perth.
