The Car Gods Smiled On Me Today!

Been away for a while, but the Car Gods were doing their thing today. It seems as though coming into work at 10 a.m. has more than one perk, . On the way in, a 997 turbo (I think), an S6 V8T, a V8 Vantage, a Carrera 4S, and an E90 M5 all had the same idea as me (show up late), and then there were the standard Boxster and Carrera S that park near me. (Turns out the S6 is the same one owned by a co-worker that I have posted before.)

Sorry for the quality, yums. It was over the shoulder through the back window as I was speeding away.



And the stuff from my absence.

CLS63:


RS5 driven by a middle age lady :





Guess who wins?


Duh.

Here's my Monterey/Carmel pics. Half of them are crap. My fiancee couldn't figure out how to work the camera on my S5 and the glare didn't help. The 17-Mile drive was closed this year, so we only went to Carmel and Cannery Row. Carmel was a clusterfuck. There wasn't even a place to park. We had much better luck last year. The event has gotten so big. Next year I'm paying to get in I think.

Clean, and nice BBS. Intercooler looks a bit crooked, though.

different processing on these photos - I toned them down - I thought the older ones were too harsh.

Fair enough, srika. You do have a thread going of the nice pics you took of the car show too. So, feel free to bump that existing thread or move your images there if you wish.

wasn't sure if I should bump that one, I thought that might be frowned upon.

besides, is anyone sick of seeing this car?

Good grief. Why? It's a thread you created for photos of the Chicago Car Show. Bump it with updates to your photos if you want.

It is hard to be sure sometimes. I have been trying to be more careful with this stuff.

here is a photo you have definitely not seen before.

Spotted these four in the parking lot of the restaurant where I had a business meeting today:

991 Turbo S with a Bentley convertible:


Followed by another Bentley convertible with an R63 AMG (now that's rare):

An A8L, no less. I didn't mention it only because, next to the Bentley Twins, et al, it seemed to pale a bit in comparison.

Hey hey...I wouldn't mind grand-theft-autoing the A8L.

She's just as hot...just way more understated and conservative in her dress. So, gotta appreciate her quiet beauty. But, once you get her going...well now.
