Sooo After I went to go and look at this car...
(That's my RDX in the background)
I was on my way home and saw this 458...
And that Elise? First time driving one, and it's got an SC... It's a limited edition "Type 72d" model, 50 in the world. Omygawd Omygawd Omygawd

^You gonna buy it Shoofin? The Lotus that is, not the F-car.
Saw this in a parking garage. Not really exotic but first time seeing a camo'd car.

I saw the first two pics and knew it was a Hyundai of some sort based on the grille. Anyone know what model this might be? Genesis sedan? I saw a mule a few years ago in Detroit. Could tell it was a Ford of some sort...turned out to be the Edge.

My favorite part of the drive was when the owner said "drive down this road and make a right to get on 110 so you can open her up to see how fast she really is!"
And then the last mile we switched and he drove the car the way he knows how to drive it (I wouldn't push the car knowing it's not mine). Crazy stuff....

I want to say that camo'd car is a Sonata refresh, but it looks way too covered up. The shape definetely looks Sonata to me though.
Shoof, that Lotus is
and would make a fantastic addition to your already great garage.

Holy crap
Too bad it sucks to ride in. Is it the driver or the car? Sports car that old can't be comfortable to begin with.

Three Wheelin'
Look who decided to want to park next to me....and taking 2 spots also:
Talking about wheel gap, for such a car like this, that has got to be at least 4-5 fingers!

people really are careless when it comes to opening door. I'd do that if I drove a car worth that much. Although that inclines people to get angry and do something worse so there may be a drawback.
I'd just hook up a machine gun that will rotate 360 degrees and pop up if someone comes withing a foot of the car. That'll scare them.

If you're worried about door dings, just park far away. If the owner of that Maser was taking up two spots close to the entrance of a busy place, I would gladly make it impossible for him to get in the driver's door.

for all we know that COULD be incredibly far away. I own a mas, im taking the farthest spot in the corneriest corner

Don't know about your city, but here, even parking far away doesn't do anything because some asshole decides, "LOL, all these open spots.... I'm gonna park next to that guy!"

At first I thought it was a Caterham Super Seven, but the owner informed me it was a Brunton Stalker, which is a kit car based off the Super Seven. He was a really cool guy and appreciated that someone even had a clue about the car. Anyhow 280hp, 300ft/lbs and a 1400ish lb curb weight. Him and his two sons built the car together and the guy plans on tracking it soon. Crazy to see an open air race car at the gas station haha!

can we post videos we've made of exotics?
*FYI, Eccjak posted great pictures above of the same event*
(I would have loved to have more car sounds, but the fountain and speakers playing 90's classics kinda messed that up...)

oh and: !! 599 GTO
