Default Oct 04 - Black Diablo, Cobra replica, Dino GT, Supra, E55...

CLICK FOR 1600X1200

Well must be a replica right? But damn nice IMO



At sunset.. pretty bad light but not a terrible result.. I love that exhast on the GTA



Winter is coming, RS6 will be everywhere


Now this is a mistery.. check out this number plate... (on a white A8L ewww!)


Nice color combo!


Older Vette


A 348


Nice Dino GT


And here is today's highlight!!








Nice CL55 AMG.. bad light and too far



And an E55 in Lugano


A bunch of C4S I love the green one, and you can even see part of my rearwheel on the pic




And a GT3 I saw on the highway while going to the Supercar rally.. sad for the messy windshield...


I think you can visually tune your Impreza without doing a mess, this is kinda cute IMO


For gis a french Supra




Oh, I also saw a mouse:


And a Quebec plate in Lausanne! VERY rare

Great pics again TT, indeed that cobra almost certainly must be a replica originals change hands for crazy sums now. I love the black diablo looks very mean and alfas of any kind always make me smile and this GTA looks very cool. BTW i have an episode of a show where they build a Cobra replica (not my thing really) if anyones interested. Its called dream machines and of course the best episode is when they rebuild three minis to look like those in the Italian Job

Lovely pics as always. The colour combo on the M3 is super strange and looks kinda cool IMO.

By the way isnĀ“t the RS6 and RS6 Plus?? Audi is not my specialty but black exhaust is supposed to be for the Plus model as far as I know

The CL55 AMG is parked in the same place as the Hamann Laguna Seca, isn't it? About the black Diablo... is perfect except for the rear wing. And the M3... I also think it's a lovely colour combination. Thanks!

Edit ---> when you click in the E55 AMG... the GT3 appears. The same for the Dino, and for the 348tb.
thanks dani for pointing out that mistake edited

And the CL was not really in the same spot, but just some 200 or 300 meters away

I'm almost sure that it's an actual AC vehicle, the CRS or Superblower or whatever it was called...there are several different versions.

Wow, the Diablo looks great in black....very nice pics, thanks. Is the Diablo in a parking bay, it looks like it isn't meant to be there.
I would have to say the highlight out of those pics is obviously the mouse though, its just superb.

Well, not really, I had to stay there to avoid beeing it by the heavy traffic

Well, no, not a parking bay, just a small area in front of a building. the car had no plates, I think it could be realted to the garage with the Cobra wich is the one indicated in the blue panel, just behind the corner, but not really sure.. I had to walk 20 minutes from where i parked the car to come back taking the pics (I saw the Diablo while arriving in Geneva but could not park nearby...)

Great pics.

The "give away" with most cobras is that the originals do not have 17" wheels.. plus those spinners (centre lock wheels) are fake - you can see the actual wheel bolts behind. Still a very nice car - that colour really suits it.

The diablo is also interesting. The quad lights under the bumper at the front means its quite an early car, but it has the later wheels of a 6.0. Nice car..

TT, as ever.......great pics....but this one is of a great beauty...there is a lot of depth in it (is it called depth in terms of photography??? I mean, 3D effect.), Thanks for some great work [/img]

I guess we can call it depth in photography too at least I understand what you mean, and yes it turned out pretty well despite the big zoom used! BTW, that silver C4S passed on the road while I was taking the green C4S pic, so I barely had time to jump up, zoom and shoot
