Could this SL be a true Brabus? sadly it's a crappy shot

but check out the bigger version.. at least the "Brabus" writing is there IMO:

A VERY nice 996TT at a petrol station:

And high-res just in case

And another Turbo, far away and in the rearwiev mirror

A couple of S4 V8 today too

And the usual M3

The best catch.. it was yesterday, pretty late, luckily still enough light to take a proper shot of a moving car! Ferrari 550 and not 575 as first posted :roll:

For danny and all the other Supra fans, a superb one. Without rear wing the Supra is simply stunning!

And Hi-res

nice ones, btw pretty sure thats a 550 you can tell by the rims

Dang indeed! Lately I keep doing mistakes in the identification of my sightings! Embarassing ones too

That "brabus" merc may just have the emblums and body kit. They don't have to have the whole engine package to earn the title of "brabus" and sport the emblums.

Here's a great example of a "Brabus" SL500 without any of the Brabus power:

Just thought it was interesting.

Love those S4 Avant so much power and so practical

as for the Merc can´t really tell but I would say it does say Brabus

and an M3 cabrio is always nice

Your neighbourhood is raining with nice and sexy cars TT!

nice ones, btw pretty sure thats a 550 you can tell by the rims

Besides the rims, how else can you differentiate the two?

Btw, are Supra's rare over there?.. cos thats the only thing that we have too much of in Sydney lol - except their mostly riced up

Nice pics but I prefer the Supra with that big wing on the back.

VERY rare! We have tons of Ferraris or Porsches, but I saw only 3 Supras in Lausanne! Luckily none of them is visually tweaked beside at most some aftermarket wheels!

IMO while Impreza and Lancer aren't really "right" w/o some sort of wing, the Supra seems born without it.. maybe it's just because I never seen a bewinged one in the metal and I'm used to those wingless ones, but I think it is the right way

ngudan · 06-14-2004, 07:03 AM

When ive got the time, i might do some 'supra' hunting for you folks

Although i'm not crazed about it, i can say the supra looked as though it was made for a wing. It's got a chubby back after all, and comes standard with holes in the boot.

I know its a race spec - JGTC - but.. mmmm.. yummy (don't know about them lights though)

Off topic but :shock:

wowo you did well TT, you have such a good range of change out your way

Drive4Ever · 06-14-2004, 05:45 PM

wow, that is one good looking 360

but anyway, TT at least u dont see people w/ S500 AMG or S430 AMG badge stuck on the back of there mercedes or better yet, taking off your original SL500 badge and put your very own "SL600" badg on where your big-O V8 badge still on the side of the car
