Default Perth dealer - out in the open (F430, Gransport, 512TR, 360)

Just a few pics that I took at the dealer on the weekend – they were all parked outside so it was too good an opportunity to pass up.



I also found out they recently had an F40 :shock: in for a day or so – it was imported from the UK for a customer here. I am so pissed I missed that… :bah:

The F430 – much better then when it was cramped inside.







Maserati Gransport – definitely one of my dream cars, and in black it is especially sexy!





A couple of combo shots of the Itlaian beauties:



512TR:



2005 360 Spider, damn expensive for a previous model car….



Maserati 4200 Spider, I have a feeling its some type of special edition model but can't think which one.....any ideas?



Lotus Esprit – with the front bumper scraping the ground. :shock:



BMW 760Li – V12 gangsta car

Nice polarized pics

What I already wondered: is that really the only way to put a temp plate on the 430! :bad:

Excellent pics, dingo. 8)

I specially like the combo shots.


As for the Maserati, I don't think it's a special edition. The 90th Anniversary models are blue, have a different grille and the rims are polished. And I think they also have an identification plate. But it's damn hot, that's for sure.

Thats what I thought at first - but all the pics I see of it look different to this one. Have you got a pic of one with these wheels?

EDIT: Damn, 4 posts in between the time I started writing to when i posted.

I don't like it either, and ruins the rear pictures IMO - at least they took the front ones off for the morning. Maybe I should request they remove those plates off cars when I take pics from now on.....

The first combo shot is great. I can say the same for the 3th F430 pic. Thanks for the pics, especially the F430 ones. And I still hate they way they attached the number plate. Dingo, you should show them how to do it properly. Maybe as a reward you may drive the car

btw, still not found the black F430 I send to you

Good idea, I've seen some pics from that dealer before so it seems well worth a visit.
