Default My Monaco Grand Prix pics¨UPDATED!

a bit late now but there pics ceratinly worth looking at.

i will start from when we got there which was the saturday afternoon. didnt have tickets for the sat just sun we went on saturday just for the atmosphere and the cars.

so here we go oh 1 more thing if you love car spotting there is no where else in the world thats even close to it even if your there on a normal day its astonishing for cars but race weekend is unbelievable. ive been to monaco a lot of times before but everytime you go you come away amazed with what you have seen the money is obscene the average age of your millionaire there is about 25 lol no joke. if you have never been ferraris are like bmw s were i live there everywere.

anyway enough of me going on

dont no what exhaust system but looked like it was made out of a biscuit tin still it did look and sound awesome. i spoke to the valetin guy and he said that car goes all round europe advertising u boat. the car was a dog the engine bay was rusty. they were charging 500 euros to wash this and the 360 lol.


race car converted to the road



i felt sorry for this guy that is not a good way to start your holiday with a small accident.



just couldnt believe it the noise is ear splitting its amazing stunning piece of modified engineering. got some more info on this later when i post some more pics of the car.




louder than your average 360cs more like a race exhaust i would be surprised if it wasnt road legal lol. il never forget the noise all weekend you could hear it tearing around the streets of monaco.





sweedish enzo owned by a garage called autoropa i think they did have a fxx for sale once.





tacky in my opinion almost as tacky as the owner lol wish you could have seen him called prince ahalt i read he bought his title he also owned the black with black rims phantom. more money than taste imo.



at the time i dint even no they were out in the uk so i was pritty shocked guy was there last year with a murcielago roadster same spec he has certainly upgraded.



again guy was there last year with hard top now he has upgraded lol




we got there early sunday there for 8 had a wonder. had a look in some of the underground car parks to see if i could see anything special and oh yes did i find something special the only one in the world in this colour. a bit rude but i had to peal the cover back.








walked round the corner from the lambo garage and it was there has to be seen to be appreciated the devil is in the detailing.



24 inch rims on the phantom lol now thats bling bling



monte carlo beach hotel amazing for exotica spotting. i walked in just in awe of what i was looking at f430 after f430 scaglietti after scaglietti and i have never seen so many 599s in my life and lambos and porsches etc etc you get the picture then well you dont need me to tell you the pics say it all just unbelievable!



the yellow enzo was special order sat nav, cd player, electric windows etc.
imo i do not no why you would want that its stupid who wants to listen to music ferrai set out to make it as light as possible so why would you want heavy electric windows and all other elecrtical appliances i guess some people want to be unique and stand out from the other enzo owners.

when i thought i had seen the ultimate lp640 roadster i saw this the most in your face lambo ever shame the roof wasnt of but hey im not complaining the colour has to be seen in the flesh its such a gorgeous colour probably a bit much with the wheels though.

yeh think he was mad because i wouldnt stop taking pics and the police man told me to get out of the way

that green machine is a lancia integrale that is highly tuned there are three of them in monaco red,yellow,green i think owned by ex rally drivers i read.

you just cant get your head round the age of the people that own these exoticas. russian rich kids that just pose around all day and shop til they drop its a hard lifestyle isnt it lol

Nice pics! Owning an exotic car in Monaco would make you too common. Go for a Prius to stand-out

:shock: I don't even know what to say... Sooo many exotics! That TechArt CGT is pretty ugly. I like the 722 SLR, and that black F430 with the grey rims is very badass.

You saw so many cars I missed, dang! Well done, but definitely :bad: to stand in the middle of the road stopping cars and :bad: :bad: to dare and touch the cover on the MC12. Such things should be avoided, especially in a place like MC IMO

i no monaco is such a strict place with cameras literally everywere but the excitement went to my head and i had to look at that mc12.

although i do feel bad for taking the cover of the mc12 i shouldnt of but in general the owners of these cars dont mind you stopping them to take pics there just pleased that you appreciate cars like them and anyway the monagasque millionaires love the attention thats why they buy cars like this.
