Default Jan 8: F360CS, F575, Diablo, Murcielago, Techart...

Ok, streetsightings time, enjoy

As always, these are just previews, to see the full 20 high-res update, click them

Actually I am not sure this E34 is a real M5, but since I saw it from my living room window.. :bah:


And again the CS in front of the dealership, with some snow in the background


And a 575M leaving


Now, the Affolter Lambos haters should shut their eyelids, we have a second GTR here.. and another weird color


Thsi is much better. It's not a real 40th Annyversary actually, but damn nice.


If you prefer german machinery you can pick either this plain stock 996TT in the most boring color ever (most common at least )


Either the Techart tuned one

NICE. I really don't like the interior on that Murci, but the color is pretty nice. Is that the same as the 40th Anniversary's? It looks a bit different.

The color is the same as the 40th, but it's a color that changes a lot from camera to camera and with light conditions, so it's hard to represent it in pictures

stunning pics TT!!
I love the CS (obviously), Turbo, TechArt (is it GT2, or techart makes it lookalike GT2?) and when I saw the Murcie, I was like "fu*k, 40th!!!" but even if it's not, this colour is beautiful on it an I'd also say it's different, since the 40th one is slightly chamelon, isn't it?

Thank you TT

I confirm the Techart is just a 996TT (rear seats, rear whiper) with the bodykit and Techart uses a GT2 lookalike wing indeed.

Great pics of the Murcielago, TT.
And of course the 360 CS looks stunning as always 8)

That is quite a unique interior on the Murcielago there...I kind of like it, its different

I'll take the 996TT, stock, in allgemeinsilber a very nice car indeed. My prefence for a 911 would always be metallic burgundy red though, with the love-it-or-hate-it burgundy interior

Do you have any more pictures of the suspect E34? I wondered, we might be able to work out if it is an M5 or not. IIRC, the E34 M5 seats have the coloured leather flashes, like E36 M3 seats

i think the E34 is not M5, i think the M5 has a little badge int the right side of ht front grill (if you are seating in the car )

the Murci its just awsome

and i think the techart monster looks better than the regular TT

thanks for the pics

oh and BTW, why didnt you jumped in the murci and drove it

Great pictures again. TT why do you hate silver so much. I think it is one of the most awesome colors out there. And it works especially well with German cars. Dark colors (Black/Dark Blue) are great, but do not show the lines of the car as much. Light colors, well just aren't as cool as Dark colors. And silver is a good in-between.

I love silver cars :good: .

Oh I don't care what anybody says about the 360, I think it is still a great looking car! Especially the CS .

Nice update, great pictures! The colour and wheels of the Murcielago are great, but the interior is horrible IMO - would make me feel like a 90yo sitting in there.

Nothing needs to be said about the CS except

I think the front spoiler on the Techart is a little too aggressive, the one from a real GT2 looks much better.

Well no more pics of the E34, I was too lazy to dress up and go out

Because I know the owner and I know I would fuck up other nice pictures opportunities by doing so

Well, it's not that I don't like it, but you can see hundreads of 996TT around here and 90% of them are silver :bah:

I love the Techart bodykit !!
But Affolter should stop making such hideous kits for Lambos I don't know why but I don't remember a bodykit that I like on a Lambo, except maybe Strosek's Diablo but for the rest ... :bad: while Ferraris are not that wasted by some tuners.
I also love the CS what a beautifull car, TT as you often see them, do you like the stripes ??

Thanks for all the pics TT
