Default Mar 06: E30 M5, F355, Viper, Z8, Prowler...

So, after the Geneva overload, which burned a stunning amount of bandwidth (close to 100 GB already this month :shock: ) we are back to regular sighting, hoping they will help relieving some pressure on the poor server

We are back in Affolter's parking during their open doors

Click any preview to be taken to the full 20 high-res update

I was pretty happy to see not only one, but two E30 M3!



Those guys had two nice cars. Both tuned but not to an horrible extend. I think the Z8 was damn sexy, but the Turbo very close behind



A yellow 355 with challenge rear grill is pretty close to perfection for me


And some american muscles where playing their cards too two Vipers side by side are something impossible to see around here, or almost and a Prowler, well... first one I was able to take in picture actually

The withe E30 M3 is really sexy And that CSL is obviously stunning !! Those exhausts are way too clean... Why there's only one pic of these two cars ?? Can I expect more pics for the next update or they're the only ones ??

The 993 Turbo is perfect!! The color, the wheels, the wide tyres.... everything

Thanks a lot as always!!! 8)

Very nice pics TT as usual!!!

my favorite is the blue 964 turbo, a very special color, a stunner! the white m3 with the m color stripes is also very nice, a rare sighting!
and yes, two vipers side by side is realy something rare... it's really sad that swiss viper drivers are not allowed to have the sidepipes mounted and need to have thos ugly plasic replacements.... :cry:

Actually there were more pics of the CSL in the previous update (before the Motorshow) :arrow: you can find them in my Archives

As for the white E30, well, it vanished and only got that shot while it was passing by

Yep, very sad indeed, but legislation must have changed, or car manufacturers must have done something about it because the new Viper is sold around here with the side exhaust as it should, and let's not forget all those SLR

Geez those Vipers are ugly POS's, but at least they sound good and are fast.

I agree about the 355, pretty much perfect that car! (depends on whether it was an F1 or not).

Thanks for the update, great stuff.

I love the M3 with the Motorsports striping - really cool! The 964 and 993 Turbos look real cool with that rare blue color

Stunning pics as usual. The Viper combo shot is great, as is the 964T and Z8 shot. Too bad the lamp post is fucking up the pic a bit.

I like the 964T: aggressive, but not too much 'in your face'.
