Apr 7 - E46, 3000GT, 996, 997 (3)
Ok, back from Paris once again and ready with a new update. All these pics were taken were my family lives or in Italy
A great and rare classic!
A Bentley Continental R
BMW E46 M3
E63 645Ci
Again the 190E, in action this time
I don't like it this much, but the 3000GT is rare around here
350Z, not rare at all, but in red yes
996 Cabrio from Liechtenstein
A 997 Carrera
And two 997S

Great sight of the Quattro 8)
I really don't like the 350Z in red  The metallic blue/silver-grey/orange(you know which ones i mean) suits it much more
As dani says, im on my 4th 997 now, yet you've seen loads more :cry: I suppose you have been travellinga lot lately though
Thx for the update TT, more pics that need adding to my archive

Well, Porsches are very well represented in Switzerland (like RS Audis), the big cities are literally invaded by 911 (any generation), so it is pretty normal to see the 997 already quite often! it is sad because this mean I will soon stop to take pics of every single one I see.. I still try to do my best with the 996, but some days you just see too many to stop every time

Stop rubbing it in
Joking... but i see say, 1 boxster and 1 911(usually 996) per day on average.
You are very lucky, but i can see how they get boring... a bit like the Conti GT in the wealthy suburbs near me

Hehe I don't want to sound "snob" at all. Like everybody else, I am pissed off when I read Monte Carlo guys saying the stopped taking pics of the 360 years ago because they can see 10 or 20 in a day :bah:
When many ppl would kill to see 10 360 in a lifetime
It's just that many times the cars are not well placed, so there is no need to take a picture of them if they are not "that" rare.
I also have to consider I am currently hosting 900+ MB of pics, and if I would shoot all the Porsches I see, I would be at 1800 probably
But I would never consider a 964/993/996/whatever "boring"  I always turn my head when one passes by me

A nice update, TT. My favourite is the white Audi Quattro.

Same over here, I've seen max 10 of them (maybe less) on the road. The should make a law that says for every Porsche sold in Switzerland, they have to donate another one to a non-Swiss counrty

Is that Audi cool or what 8)
The BMW 6 back shot is nice. The car looks cool from any angle...
Great 997 shots.
Do you see any Z convertibles?
Last year in May I saw one red convertible in NYC and it was sooo good looking.
It had some aftermarket rims. Borderline bling bling, but still ok.

Well I saw my first two 350Z convertibles on the road the past week, I missed the first one in Lausanne but caught the second in Geneva. Black with the roof down, pretty sexy and that sound is always nice
