The one i saw definitelty had the holden badges, but that is probably the cheapest part of the conversion

5/22/2011 3:31:49 PM

this one had holden everywhere but the trunk lid had the pontiac V thing on it.

5/22/2011 4:16:14 PM

5/23/2011 9:35:24 AM

I saw this sweet C5 vette with a trailer hitch this afternoon.

How does this work? Do I get a half point for that?

5/23/2011 2:13:21 PM

10 pts.

5/23/2011 2:19:03 PM

Went to have my car serviced at a place called the Auto Mall, a mall of just car showrooms of many brands. Saw:

Enzo Ferrari
SL65 AMG Black Series
SLS AMG
911 GT3
F430 Spyder (customer's)
R8
GT-R
LFA (one of only 12 allotted to this country... thing is GORGEOUS)
Bentleys (several, old and new)
XF-R, XK-R
M6
C63 AMG
IS-F

And also a bunch of American perfectly restored classics from the 50s to the 80s:

Oldsmobile Toronado
Chevrolet El Camino
Buick 452
Corvette
Corvette Stingray
Trans Am
And one from the 30s or 40s I couldn't identify (no labels)

5/25/2011 6:27:26 AM

^^ this is how it works (saw this one at Summit Point)

5/25/2011 7:47:03 AM

Also who can name this exotic?

5/25/2011 7:49:14 AM

^^ yeah my future father-in-law does the same thing with his 350z.

5/25/2011 8:23:16 AM

^^ the Dodge Diaper?

5/25/2011 10:25:12 AM

no, i'm pretty sure it's a 180193_908496014659_11805057_46563152_4564408_n

5/25/2011 12:28:42 PM

^^^^It's a concept from the Li-Ion company, which is based in Las Vegas and has an office in Mooresville. Is that photo recent, b/c I'm pretty sure they went out of business a few months ago.

Just about every car sold can safely tow up to 1000lbs, so you'll see lots of small sports cars with trailer hitches for small trailers carrying wheels/tires to track events (as illustrated above). Miatas, S2000s, 350Zs, Corvettes, etc all do this. Not terribly mind blowing really....now the Smart FourTwo I saw with a trailer hitch, that had me scratching my head.

5/25/2011 1:50:51 PM

Where else you going to put your milk and bread in that tiny can?

5/25/2011 2:59:21 PM

^^^^ good call! The logo was actually in the corner of the picture, but it was still not an easy one to guess. This photo was taken at the DC Auto show this past February. The guy sounded like the company was on track with the production, said the operations are out of NC, that's why I figured someone here may have sen it before. The website is still active. It looked a bit like a kit car in person, I did not see the refinement present in that cars it was supposed to compete with. But it was still probably the hottest electric ride out at the show (which was really lackluster this year i thought)

^^^ Haha I also just noticed that the hood ormanment does seem to have a ram on it.

5/25/2011 3:44:04 PM

I used to know their PR director. She said they were going out of business and that was mid February.

So who knows

5/25/2011 4:14:46 PM

teg i know.. i was just making a joke about the tow package...

5/25/2011 6:03:47 PM

Whats up Cincinnati?

5/25/2011 6:50:11 PM

i hate people that are too good for a parking space.

i saw one of those in silver at jason's deli in crossroads the other day with the top down. didnt snap a pic though

5/25/2011 9:43:18 PM

Saw a Tesla in the Oberlin roundabout on Monday.

5/25/2011 9:48:39 PM

I've seen a few Gallardo's in the Triangle... But a murcielago? Pics or fail.

Oh my post wasn't referring to you, lol.

5/25/2011 11:12:56 PM

Here's one I found around town



(reposted to relevant thread)

6/13/2011 11:30:21 AM

that reminds me that we saw a true 350 nismo edition today (or at least it looked damn authentic)

6/13/2011 8:46:47 PM

Any idea which year this is?








Hummer with low pro tires

[Edited on June 14, 2011 at 6:22 PM. Reason : .]

6/14/2011 6:21:39 PM

first one, i'm not sure, but it looks bad ass
second one is a mid 90s 8 series BMW
third one, get that out of here

6/18/2011 2:55:25 PM

I pretty sure that's a 1962 Dodge Polara.

6/26/2011 1:37:16 AM

There's nothing exotic about a nigged up tahoe

6/26/2011 10:19:22 AM

458 in Annapolis a couple weeks ago

6/29/2011 2:15:53 PM

damn that car is sexy

6/30/2011 12:34:41 PM

I wonder if it looks better in person, b/c the photos do not impress me.

6/30/2011 12:55:22 PM

i'd love to own one but as for seeing one "i'm over it"

there are 3-6 at every cars & coffee now.

6/30/2011 12:55:42 PM

Around the Triangle? I haven't seen one. Only exotic car I see on the reg is the Gallardo

[Edited on June 30, 2011 at 1:04 PM. Reason : and Bently Contis]

6/30/2011 1:01:05 PM

what is a good BMW 850i worth now?

6/30/2011 1:06:49 PM

$10k?

6/30/2011 1:14:56 PM

850s are awesome but they have their probs ... i was wondering about an s62 swapped 840 the other day... seems like it should be easy but i don't know bimmer engine mounts too well.


Yeah first sat. of every month in brier creek shopping center by the vacant restaurant in the borders parking lot there are usually a min of 3 458s and they're sooo sexy but... the panteras and nobles that randomly show up are more exciting for me.

6/30/2011 1:17:51 PM

yellow ultima GTR in huntersville

6/30/2011 5:20:33 PM

Triple Black 996 Turbo S Cabriolet today on 440 eastbound.

I hated the styling before I saw it in person. It is a sharp looking car in motion, but I still think pics make it look .

7/1/2011 9:40:43 AM

What time on Saturdays is that Briar Creek meetup?

7/1/2011 10:17:30 AM

Starts at 9ish... most people are gone by 11:30. Some stay and grab lunch

7/1/2011 10:24:59 AM

Saw an f430 (2005-ish?) while I was visiting my parents in a tiny little suburb of cleveland -- when i mentioned it to my dad, he mentioned it was the neighbor's who lives about 2-3 doors down. While it's a nice neighborhood, it's nowhere near ferrari nice.

Also, not exotic, but I saw my first a7 on the road. I really like the taillights at night.

7/4/2011 10:36:58 PM

^ the whole audi range (latest models) have some sick ass tail lights, but at night only. they look quite boring and plain by day, but at night, you see some awesome LED patterns in them!

7/4/2011 10:46:29 PM

I saw a newer gts-r viper with license plate "stig" driving down franklin st.

7/5/2011 11:17:45 AM

Not really spotted yet, but a friend just bought an Audi R8 GT Limited Edition. He takes delivery in November. His is number 40 something.

7/6/2011 8:41:40 PM

saw one of these yesterday driving around morrisville while running errands for work- My jaw about hit the wheel seeing him drive it on a public road (it was a nice red and white color scheme)

7/8/2011 9:11:33 AM

^^ What does your friend do that he can afford a $200k car?
