Car Sightings

[VooDooXII]

On our drive back from Indiana, I saw a funny little Miata. It was the second gen one...fixed headlights, and the guy had put teeth in the opening up front, so it looked like a "Cars" character.

I thought this was funny enough, but then immediately after I see an Aston Martin V8 Vantage, and a fucking Noble M12 GTO-3R.

The Aston looks amazing in person...but I was really shocked to see the Noble. It was red, sounded pretty cool, and it just looked awesome. Hah, it was like I was in a video game...two stunning cars within a minute.

Anyone else have any interesting car sightings to report?

[81911SC]

I saw the same noble but it was a dark green, almost like british racing green. Guy has a house in Fannin and one in PC. Here lately nothing.

[VooDooXII]

I've seen a Morgan Plus 4 in the Duluth area. It was at the Georgia Tech Auto Show in fact...but I've seen it on the road when I was back home.

More interesting though...on 6th Street I think, right near the Publix by Tech Square, I saw a silver TVR M-Series...or it may have been a Vixen, I don't know. I've got pictures of that one on my phone. I'll get them up here sometime. I'm sure someone wants to see that.

[XanRules]

Yesterday I saw a bright pink sparkly Mitsubishi Eclipse.

EDIT: Then saw Eight Corvettes, all same model year, driving in a line on one side of the road, all different colors.

[VooDooXII]

I just moved into a place in Midtown...I can't go a day without seeing a Range Rover or Jaguar.

I also see a Bentley Continental GT every now and then...and I saw two Quattroportes earlier today...but one was back in Suwanee.

[Kyle]

Today I saw quite a few nice cars. A DB7, DB9, Continental GT, Masereti Quattroporte, Porsche 997 Turbo, and a Bentley Arnage.

[VooDooXII]

Ah, I have yet to see a DB7 on the road. Those cars are beautiful.

[Novacaine]

Here lately theirs been quite a few F430s our Ferrari Modena's (Spellcheck) running around and always a chick driving them. Can't tell which they are as they look kind of similar and I'm no ferrari expert. Sound damn good though one was coming up behind me and I could hear that engine sound like no other and was wondering what the hell was it then some chick hauling balls in a silver one came flying by.

[2.0civic]

lol you misspelled there's and or but spelled modena right LIRL

[OneSlow5pt0]

i know somewhere where theres 2 (about to be 3) in one building within 35 minutes of atlanta:goodjob:

[OneSlow5pt0]

[VooDooXII]

Ahh, I need to get my TVR pictures up.

[OneSlow5pt0]

[VooDooXII]

[Turbo07]

I don't know why this died, it seems like a cool idea to me. I just hope I can go a week without seeing any threads/posts on that Skyline. I saw it a few weeks ago, it's cool to see in person but not in twenty different threads.

[Turbo07]

Apparently there is a car meet or show up at US Play on Barrett this Saturday night. The person who posted the info really didn't let us know what was going on, has anyone else heard about this? I might go up there and see if I find anything worth looking at that doesn't start with an 'S' and end with an 'E.' (And no, it's not a Hyundai Santa Fe!)

[AnthonyF]

Ah, I have yet to see a DB7 on the road. Those cars are beautiful.

i work on Buford hwy south of N druid hills and there is a modded blak one that passes every now and then. He usually goes to Elite. But he drives it hard too. :goodjob:

[VooDooXII]

I've only seen them in dealerships...

[OneSlow5pt0]

i was beside a jaguar XKR on the way to school yesterday...that is a very good looking car

[VooDooXII]

I love Jag's new XKs...WOW.

My friend thought it was a Maserati when he saw it...so that's a good sign for them.

They touched up the XJ too...looks kinda cool.

NO WAY!

:eek: @ both the things you just mentioned.

I've never seen an XJ220 in the road...only in a show once. Apparently, they sound like cement mixers. Pretty amazing that those things only had V-6s. They were HUGE!

I saw a ferrari (i think it was like a 550 maranello or something) up in maryland a few weeks ago. i saw an astin martin vanquish off 78.......& i once drove past a Delorean fixed up like the car from back 2 the future.....it had a flux capacitor.

[VooDooXII]

There's a champagne Maserati Quattroporte and a Red/Red rims Range Rover on the street in front of my apartment.

Oh yea...you Georgia Tech kids will know this one. The 1969 Camaro with the LS1 in it. It's black/silver two tone. I just saw it earlier today...he got new American Racing wheels...black with a polished lip. Looks good :goodjob:

[VooDooXII]

I saw what looked like sickle's car on McGinnis Ferry today.

Black GS with black-housed headlights and those split-five spoke wheels?

Whoever it was...the car looked GOOD. :goodjob:

I have yet to see a Bugatti in person. I haven't even seen one in a show or anything...

Brakes last for 3000 miles only??? What, is he doing repeated stops from top speed?

Well, I guess if you've got $2,000,000 to drop on a car...then you'd be wiping your ass with Benjamins anyway. $10,000 is chump change.

A side note from the exotic you guys seen. The other day on I-20 I saw an Acura EL it was bigger than the last gen civic but looked weird. I guess it was a canadian model.

I saw an EL on Friday. It looks a bit more aggressive than the Civic.

Exclusive to the Canadian market...I wonder how many people have done a full CDM tyte conversion on their Civics.

Now it's the CSX instead of the EL, and it looks like the JDM new Civic.

[OneSlow5pt0]

[2turbo4u]

It looks like the silver car you posted, it was a sedan.

[Nissangeek]

My boss just bought a Masserati MC-12. I went to see it when he tried to pick it up but it broke so we had to leave it at the dealership and its still not done. Those fuckers are HUGE. 17' long and as wide as a Hummer H1.
