Spotted these 2 on Saturday...

David Coulthard F1 McLaren on a trailer on Clarendon St

and a red Ford GT out the front of The Clarendon...

I saw that Ford GT as well.

I think the owner was at one of the table outside of the cafe. I walked past the car twice about 30min appart and that guy was still there.

this one time in the city, leaving a club, i looked thru the carpark, and saw a shitload of VERY expensive cars behind a security gate... i should start posting in this thread, i live in toorak, 2doors up is a lambo, an SL55 amg frequents accross the road, porches/audi's(the nice ones)/bmw's(the M ones or the big limo ones) everywhere, AMG's seem to be getting more popular, ferrari 4down accross the road etc

then all the shitters in my apartment block :blink:

and an M3 CSL down the road(my favorite)

and the odd aston too, seen as many on tow trucks as on the road!

apartment = cheaper rent than a house furthur out :rant:

love the local cars, but so sick of the shithead drivers in the big luxo "4wd"'s

saw a nice gunmetal ferrari(no idea what it was, but was big, new, and a ferrari) this morning dropping the mrs at work.

Sounds familiar.

I work in Mount Eliza, like a mini Toorak.

The favoured vehicles around here are Porsche, Benz & BMW. Lots of ML's, X5's and Cayenne's.

Just saw a $Mil driving down the road in the form of a Rolls Phantom Drophead. Black with White leather. Top down. Certainly owns the street for looks.

Had an AMG ML63 roar up beside me this morning & drop the kids off.

Aston DB9 in "British Green"... again dropping the kid off *sigh*

Again, sounds too familiar.

The reason they can't drive properly is because the world owes them and everyone bends to their will and focus' on them.

You didn't know this? :)

Ignorant pr*cks.

I just spotted the Redback Spyder tonight on Swanston Street.

Here's the result of what some others thought about it...

One of the funniest things I've seen in many years!

Saw the Redback Spyder on Beyond Tomorrow before. Wonder if anyone actually bought one. I think the owner owns the two in existence?

Props to the builder, but to be honest 350k is a bit steep for an LS1 in a carbon chassis. I think the Joss Supercar looks so much better and is faster, for around the same money. It's also built by an aussie in his "garage". Some of you may remember it from previous motor shows.

Great job spotting the Redback though. The only super-spot that can top that I guess is of one-of-a-kind car. eg., if the sole Maybach Excelero ever comes here . Not sure what other one-of-a-kind road cars there are :cheers:

    • I'm pretty much healed up post surgery so I spent another almost full day out in the shed re-arranging everything to make room for all of the shit that I've taken off the car.  I need to get everything off the floor and away from the car for when I start making a massive mess stripping off the remaining body deadener and then for the the painting process.  Almost got the shed to a point now where I feel I can actually start working on the car again (clean shed clean mind or something!).  Almost 11 years of accumulated car parts, building supplies, tools, junk, etc have taken a long time to get in some sort of order again!  Most stuff is now boxed up and in the back shed if it's not car related.  Most people would still be horrified walking into my shed but it's significantly better than it was before!   For those that saw my separate post the other day, yeah I ordered one.... This version- I convinced myself to stop being a clown, wake up to yourself and realise it will take you 5 weeks to make one by which stage you're over working on the car again...  Maybe I am getting on top of my "mental ailments" and making smarter choices.... $1450 delivered which will take my miserable half-dutch arse a few days to get over having spent that much!  If I don't have a use for it straight away after my car is off it I might even see if there is a "rental market" for them.  See if anyone wants to hire it for a period of time.  $25 a week or something like that.  I'll worry about that when my car is actually ready to come off it though as that might be a while away!! There's now no excuses now for not ending up with an underside you could eat off! Away for kids sport the next few weekends so hopefully can get the rotisserie assembled ready to go for the car to go straight on it the next available weekend.    
    • I always use my Karcher, but it's only a little one that I picked up from Supercheap  The only issue I ever had with a pressure washer was when I was a kid cleaning coaches, they had a hi-po industrial sized petrol jobbie that would strip paint if you got to close I saying this, we have a fairly high power washer at work with a diesel powered heater that sprays water at about 60°c, it works great for removing old wax and road grime on the underbody after some foam cannon action, albeit from a "stand off" distance of a few feet
    • Sorry no - The sandtrap adventure ended the day, happened at the end of the last session. At that time I wasn't hearing any weird noises nor were the brakes shuddering anymore. It was only when watching the videos that I remembered I had these sounds early on!
    • Did the noise appear after your sand trap adventure? Could be something got dislodged and is playing rub rub. Even a rock wedged somewhere.
    • Is there a shroud around the tailshaft spline into the back of the box? They can rub and make a horrible noise if they are not on straight/damaged. The heat might have caused it to grow too much in one direction and rub.
