Here's a few pretty little automobiles I saw during my travels in the Côte d'Azur during my honeymoon.

There was so much money around, you could smell it! I was soooo in my element :mellow:

1. Porsche Carrera GT with Rolls Royce Phantom parked behind.

2. Maserati MC12.

3. Mercedes McLaren SLR. Oooooo I sooooo want one.

4. Carpark outside Monte Carlo Casino

5. Ford GT

6. 2009 Ferrari 599 GTB Mansory Stallone. 1 of not many. Supercharged 6.0L V12 with LOTS of carbon fiber and go fast bits.

7. Aston Martin DBS. Sounds so secksy.

Red HSV R8 Tourer with black plates [R8TOUR] trailing me off Dynon Rd. Wanted to race me at the lights next to BP Whitehall. I think this is the car that some motor mag used to do the R8 tourer review. Absolutely love that car - if only it came with as much cargo space as a Stagea....

HSV W427 at Monash Uni on Wednesday - those thing look so much meaner on the road than they did at the motor show!

I'm pretty sure I saw a silver Walkinshaw supercharged HSV Clubbie R8 last week in the city (or a good imitation). Had the bonnet scoops and what sounded like a supercharger whine.

For those who don't know what this is, google it. It blows the W427 out of the water, is done by reputable HSV-affiliated WP, and costs <100k. The only reason you would buy a W427 over this is as a collector's item, but seriously, I don't think it's worth 50k more (or will ever be in the future).

My next family car will be an R8 tourer with the WP treatment :down: Goodbye RS6!

Warning: This car might be better than sex

Saw this walking home from uni (Monash Caulfield) dont know the name of the road I walk everyday but it's straight under the bridge from the roundabout in the uni....things i would do just to sit in it

I don't know if it's real but if it's not the guy really pulled out all the stops to make a replica Shelby GT500 Super Snake IT'S HOT!

Hi there. This Mustang actually belongs to me and my father. Yes, it is a real Shelby SuperSnake and is currently the only one in Australia to be driven regularly. Good job on spotting it! Someone has finally posted pics of it been seen in public on the net :P

Is there any polite way to remind someone just what agricultural crap Aussie built cars are? And how inappropriate they are to mention in a Supercar thread?

Despite what the Mythbusters might think, you can't polish a turd.

My link to my photos from the Supercar Club QR Trackday. Enjoy. http://s13.photobucket.com/albums/a300/GTR...?albumview=grid

and how inappropriate they are to mention in a Supercar thread?

Geoff, i'm pretty sure the mandate for the thread is "things you don't see every day" and when they only sold less than 200 (i think) to see one actually being driven is quite a surprise. I'd have expected the majority to go into mothballs once bought.

An for a piece of "agricultural crap" the inside of a new Calais V is quite a nice tractor to be in.

seen this on Hallam-Pound Road intersection just before ;) wanted one of those so bad for a first car, seeing it today makes me want on even more now

Sorry, my knowledge of classic cars = fail. What exactly is it? A mustang of some sort, yeah?

    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
    • Yeah, shame. Maybe  driver's carpet is available 🙏. I am waiting for both amayama and nangun to confirm.
