The "Photos You've Taken of Exotic/Desirable Cars" Thread
Even if it's not a GT-R, the R34 is such a good looking base design. Very easy to make it look even better with small mods.

some more snaps from weekend - pretty low key show I mean - nothing like super spectacular, but still - it's good to get back in the groove.

Got passed by a really nice R32 driving in to work last week. Seeing more of them around than I ever have. Have seen 4-5 R32s & a R33 & R34 just within the last 6-9 months.

^ Yep, now that they're over 25 years old they can be imported in relatively easily now. I'm seeing them more often here, too.

I was taken for a ride around my local track by the DE instructor who happened to have the same car as mine, except he Motons and lower profile tires. The local club guy who I knew well put me in the car with him. He was a fireman and paramedic, so I was told not to worry, as if I would. I was reached an airline sick-sack. Are you kidding I said, I spent anywhere from 5 to 11 hours a day as a flight instructor. No sick sack required.
Well 5 laps could have been 50 laps. I loved it. It is amazing what your butt can feel.
Anyway, as a flight instructor, there is nothing like improving your skills. And the same applies to driving. But as for the guys that go to the track on DE days and think they are fast, you are a long way from competitive competition be it locally, nationally and forget about internationally. The latter are in a class by themsleves.
I am signed up for a 3-day course with Porsche. Looking forward to my dream.

I know they all do everything better now, just as a F22 fighter would blow a P-51 or Spitfire out of the sky, but I'd sooner be in a P-51 or Spitfire just hugging the treeline in a valley.

Gone are the days when cars felt more "raw" and "uncivilized", having been in a 1966 Corvette with a 427 and a 1970 Dodge Challenger with a 340...both manuals.

To this day, I refuse to buy cars with automatic transmissions; next year I'm thinking of fetching a new Golf R 6-Speed as my daily driver, and then a year later I'm toying with the idea of a Cayman S 6-Speed for a weekend car.
I figure with those cars in hand, I'll be able to have three pedals under my dash until I become too old and decrepit to be on the road; EVs be damned, if I have my way, one will never darken the threshold to my garage.

GT3RS (not the new version, but still nice)

A classic RHD Roller in mint condition found in an underground garage in Old Town Scottsdale.

@ttribe, oh my, do my eyes deceive me? That Roller looks like it's rolling on old Bias-Ply tires; I don't think I've seen a set of those since the 1970s.

Since my potato is broken, I didn't get any shots of the Gold Rush Rally cars.
We stopped for fuel in Jennings en route from Destin > Houston & caught a few of them rolling by. Saw Ed Bolian cruise by in his 430 Scud. Guy at the gas station (in a white (TT?) R8) said he started in his SLR but swapped in Atlanta to the 430.

I saw a bunch of those Gold Rush cars in NYC on the IG of kiefer_d a few weeks ago. He's one of those automobile photographers except he flies around in a skateboard and gets tons of shots.

We only spotted a few before we hit full standstill traffic near the TX/LA border.
They're easy to pick out with the graphics/wrap. The above mention R8 & 430 Scud.
Red (wrapped) Ferrari FF, couple Porsches & Lambos, think there was a Ford GT too.

We were in Cincinnati for a Red's game this past weekend. On the way to eat afterward I saw these two C8 Vettes in the distance parked in front of each other. Got a little closer then realized that wasn't the case at all.

Yep it had nice restaurants in that particular area. One block over though and I wouldn't want to walk it at night.

Recently seen on a road trip up to Cape Cod .... Also saw four C8's at rest stops and on the highway itself, but wasn't able to safely take any pics ....
