Saw my current dream car parked near work yesterday - AM V8 Vantage. Damn that thing is sexy. We don't get very many exotics around here at all, despite being right in the middle of Canberra so this was a nice surprise. I've seen it once before with no plates being fanged around one of our many lovely round-a-bouts but this was the first time I have had a good chance to check one out in the flesh.

A DB9 in the city yesterday.... I was really hoping he would put his foot down off the lights, I really wanted to hear it.... He didnt...

Apparently Australia only got about 6 or so. very low number anyway
32 I believe. And I saw one last week too.
Absolutely shocking resale on those cars and it's amazing how many are always up for sale considering how few we have here. I guess after people spent $210,000 on an M3 CSL and found out it was far less practical and not much faster than the $70k less model they figured they'd get something else...

I mean, I think they are good looking car.
I reckon they look mad. Don't see many cars with the classic long nose roadster thing anymore. The back is a bit of a mismatch for the front but they're very cool cars in my opinion.

a few days ago i saw some car hooting about the backstreets of the east end covered in lots of stealth tape. either the new Honda Jizz/Mitsubishi Colt or some ricer was trying to hold his car together.
I remember back in the day (about 10 years ago), there was a volvo getting around Adelaide with a 1J in it... looked like a boonga, went like stink
Used to see it caning about on Saturday nights.

I'd only be guessing, but probably somewhere between first and second gear
