Vehicles spotted in your neighborhood

Some stuff spotted in Palm Springs this holiday weekend. I uploaded an album of mid century modern homes if you are interested as well:

Cool galleries! Nothing illustrates Ferraris fall from grace better than putting the FF into that context.
I’d love to see a less garish one again, but at the time being the Fezza has to be the extention of a fitness club not a gentlemens lounge.

Fall from grace? I love the FF, personally. It’s substantially better than the direction Porsche has gone with the Cayenne and Panamera.

At least it’s not a four door.

I think I know why I don’t like Ferraris, Lambos, etc today. They no longer look bespoke. That XKE looks made in a barn, the Ferraris look like they rented the Chevy factory for a weekend and used their own tooling.

I know I’m an oddball, but I’d pay $200k for the XKE before a new Ferrari.

Since we’re talking exotics and super-cars, I think the best of the best was the Muira. Look at that stance, those rear shoulders, that swept windshield…mmm. I see so much influence from this car in super-cars, muscle-cars and elegant-exotica that followed for decades. Any car that can make burnt-orange and green-apple look beautiful is a winner. :slight_smile:

Sorry this has gone off kilter - I haven’t actually seen one of these anywhere near my neighborhood and doubt I ever will, but stunning nonetheless!

Just buy a cottage near this guy and your posting will be thread correct, again.

P.S.: I’ll praise the day when Apple ships their product with instructions or at least
a help button.

We just bought a house in a slightly different neighborhood, some rides in the new hood, and a dope Ferrari GTS in the parking lot at the airport.








Awww…w.w…w.w mnannn n n … name that tune! (it’s real name, not it’s “American” name.)

Harley Sprint (via Aermacchi), baby!
Love the quiz format. More, please!

yo, love that Ranchero. My neighbor’s dad growing up had an ivory colored one.

You win a cookie! It’s a later vintage, probably 1975 (and modified). I much preferred the earlier model’s gas tank profile; much more “Italian”.

1966

Scott - loving the Muria p o r n!

Edit no 2: Just saw the original version of “the Italian Job” and there was nice Muria driving scene in the Alps within the first 15 min

Love seeing cool cars parked where you don’t expect them (shopping mall parking garage in this case).

nice. Felt the same when I saw that Ferrari GTS in the airport parking lot. I just couldn’t help wondering what a nice girl was doing in a place like that? :wink:

The r8 is one fine grocery getter…

some beautiful American steel







More beauties from the workplace garage.
Presenting: Sad Face Vantage.



Is someone having an issue keeping their engine warm? Or did they swap the engine for a CAT diesel?

Naa. Streamlining exercise.

They running the Daytona 500 or something?

Is that a ticket on the hood of that Aston? Should be cited for improper care of a Vantage
