I wish I had a camera the other night... I was coming home from the gym (late...), it was a rainy/snowy night... and out of the blue, there was a Ferrari California parked on the street... kinda dark street I might add. You would NEVER see an exotic like that parked OUTSIDE on a rainy/snowy night in California.

For a manufacturer that has managed to makes Guards Red one of the best looking colors out there, it really doesn't suit the CGT as much as the silver or even yellow.

F-ck man in west LA I saw 2 Carrera GT2s, a half dozen Bentleys, and 2 RR Ghosts just parked on the street in the rain. Couple were outside the club in Ktown, totally random.

My bad..

The governor general is the representative of the monarchy here in Canada. He/she doesn't do anything but serves as a representative. If Hitler suddenly replaced our prime minister, the GG would be able to get him removed. Basically no purpose at all.

You guys are killing me with the WTF Car of the Day pics. This thread is for exotics and desirable cars, not stupid license plates or 20's on a V6 Mustang.

I agree with you, however the title of the thread has always irritated me.

The cars posted do fit into "pictures from the drivers seat". I think a title change is in order to stop the off topic posts entirely, maybe something along the lines of "Exotic Cars of the Day" or something.

personally, I think the title shouldn't have the "...from the Drivers Seat"... just because for one... it's not safe to be taking pics while driving. I mean, I do it, but maybe we shouldn't have a title where AZ "promotes" such act. If members want to take pics while driving, let them decide. And 2nd... I walk around DT Vancouver a lot, where I see a LOT of sick cars... and yes, I still post anyways despite the fact that they weren't taken while behind the wheel... Others have too. Maybe it should be changed to something like "Exotic/Hot Cars Spotted" thread.. I'm just sayin'.

but as for the WTF type of cars go... yeah, they do NOT belong in this thread, they belong in the "WTF" thread.

I see where you guys are coming from. I guess I can't expect everyone to read the intro description before each photo is posted to this thread. I did warn of using extreme caution when photographing from behind the wheel and also said exotic cars, but again, expecting everyone to read it is not very realistic. Maybe I can convince a mod to change the title.

I probably read it, I maybe I didn't... but it was 2 years ago man... whether there's a disclaimer or not, it's still in the title, and if you're gonna throw an attitude about it, I have no problems not posting in this thread... I couldn't give a fucking rats ass
