Default March 7th: F575M (2x), Gransport, 3200, 4200, 911 RS...

After Geneva, back to our belowed street sightings, much better and more rewarding IMO

CLICK ANY PIC TO BE TAKEN TO THE FULL 20 PICS HIGH-RES UPDATE

So, what do we have here...

Let's start with a nice Conti GT in one of my favourites colors for it, right outside a luxury cars dealership


Yet another E30 M3. Not as nice as the last one, especially because of those strange red rims at the front :bah:


Again the C6, but I was able to take a pic of the back finally


And a couple more pics of the black 575.. like this one


Two days later I found this red / red 575M at the Palace Hotel at night.. from Dubai :shock:


3200GT with or without snow



4200GT


Nice combo at the Maserati workshop: 4200GT, Gransport, 3200GT my first Gransport in Switzerland (actually the second but the first in pics)


Always hard to be 100% sure, but this one should be the real thing


A simple 996 C4, but pretty well placed


And a RR Silver Spur. I like this pic because of the garage working as a frame and that tree's branch like some sort of banner

Agreed. I would never put as a desktop wallpaper a car picture from an autoshow, but I would put any nice picture taken on the street.

I agree, sightings on the road are so much more rewarding and make nicer pictures
I love the 575M, just the perfect cruising car for me The picture with all the lights from the Hotel in the background is NICE......wallpaper for today I think
You certainly aren't short of Maserati's over there, and the 2.7RS is a very rare sighitng :shock:
Thanks

As far as I see the red 575M is not with metal front license plate, but sticker, isn't it. Looks nice 8)

Yep, it was a sticker.. not allowed in Switzerland BTW :roll: too bad because on some cars like the Enzo, it is the only decent option

On a side note, the damn Geneva pics caused my biggest peak ever in bandwidth consumption since the website was launched in September 2004. Before that, the record was held by the Supercar rally, but strangely, Geneva just eclipsed it, with something like this:



where the tiny ones are actually average days, not dead ones, usually something like this:



So basically the 5th of the month, 12 GB are already gone and it's good since anyway I pay for them, so the more I use, the better, as long as I stay inbetween the limits..

Sorry the OT, but I was impressed

Basically it's not so complicated to allow stickers because they can put into them the same stuff they put on plates to protect them. The problem IMO is that if they allow them so many people would want to put stickers on so many better (for them places) that there's going to be a complete mess. On the other hand they can't limit the models allowed for stickers. :roll:

Same thing stateside.

As for your bandwidth TT, i can only guess y it's being used up so quickly: Those are some f'in nice photos you took.

concerning this set, the matte black 575 and red 575 are really stellar.

The matt black 575 still looks amazing. But I like the Maser combo shot the most. The pic of the red 575 with the background of lights also turns out really well. And the original Carrera RS is a real good sighting. I've never seen one on public roads.
