Saw this yesterday.


On the way back from Road Atlanta....okay, I was actually buying Wiggles tickets.


Hard to see, but that's a black 09 Camaro with orange stripes and bowtie.

Hey guys, I saw this thread and joined just so I could post this picture...
We saw this Bugatti Veyron driving through Hollywood, came back down the road a bit later and it was parked along the curb. Couldn't get a picture while driving, but saw it on the road, if that counts. Indiana plates.

I know it's kinda to see, but it's that Hybrid Mini. I haven't seen one out on the road yet, this was the first for me. (91 freeway, west bound near Gardena)

Welcome to AZ

I don't know if this is the case, but I knew some rich folks that would have their exotic/highend cars registered in other states. Perhaps they had home out there too, but I think it's a tax thing or cheaper registration thing.

^You would think they wouldn't care about the cost of insurance if they have a supercar

I guess everybody is a cheap ass at heart

no, I don't think it's to save insurance... it's like they claim resistance in a state where... perhaps there's lower income tax or something... and register their car there too...

On the drive out to surf today. I take horrible pictures apparently, although a curve in the road was coming up. I'm not a mbz fan but these things (E63 AMG) sound great



Don't see too many white ones. I don't like it but the interior looks great

You DO take horrible pictures, but you drive an AMAZING CAR.

I'm over your S6's interior more than the E63 azz.

I tried to get a side shot. I wasn't really impressed with the back. Exhaust fit didn't look right.

I saw a Tesla roadster in DC two nights ago, though it was gone before I could get a picture. Never seen one before. At first, I couldn't decide whether it was the Tesla or a Lotus Evora. Took off pretty quickly without a sound too.

^ - Quite a few around here. So far I'm not impressed with the ability of the drivers. Fucking morons. I think the car looks nice though. I think I posed a pic in this thread of the one that I saw.

So I tried zooming in on the mbz but it is pretty grainy. I think the camera focused on the steering wheel instead of the car outside. Is there anyway to tell the camera not to do that? I know nothing about cameras and don't have a very good one.

^ Holy shit. I think somebody wants a Harley really badly but can only afford a Civic.

I saw this at Home Depot on Thursday. It had a license plate so I guess it was road legal:

Saw this dirty ass Maserati as well. The license plate says "BAD CAR!"

Actually, the Smart car is rear-wheel drive (engine is also in the rear) and comes with staggered rims OEM.

Because it was hideous. I didn't think you could fit 20's on the front and 22's on the back of a Vette. Plus the thread needed a bump

I really like these. Sorry for crappy cell phone pic (though I guess it isn't much worse than when I'm using a regular camera).
