A Car spotter is a person who is typically strongly interested in amateur photographing, rare, modified and exotic cars on public roads.
Car spotters can be found worldwide.

I like exotic cars and I like photographing them, are some of you guys car spotters?
If so, share your spots here.

Here are some cars I spotted today:

BMW M3 E92

Wow - that Porsche looks pretty sleek. Love the alloys, see them all the time - my brother took a trip down to Monaco ... all photos taken by him: (resized from original stupid size! {3008x2000})

There was a garage near mine that sold exotic cars, its main buisness came from people having their pics taken with them lol. There was a blue Lambo there and the owner drove the Roller that was there with the number plate 'BBC'.

I've got a pic of an Aston Martin somewhere.

Okay, I'm always driving when I see these nice, and I mean NICE cars. But, nonetheless, had an Audi R8 pass me going the other way through town (slow speed limit, so I got a really nice look as it went by), and I've pulled up alongside a BMW M3 coupe (newest version) at a stoplight, but alas, he was turning left and I was going straight, though I did call out to him "Nice car!"

But seeing that R8, I just about shit my pants at how amazing it looks and to think my '93 Honda Civic shared the road with a $120,000 supercar. Almost wanted to immediately pull a u-turn and follow it, but I was on my way to class.

While you guys are at it, can you take a snapshot of the owners' bewildered faces after they see you taking pictures of their cars? What would people think if they saw complete strangers taking photos of their cars, I wonder.

A couple that I've had on my phone for a while:

1. Audi R8 (it's nice in black)

https://i202.photobucket.com/albums/aa129/TSIPRQO/061208131255.jpg

2. Audi Quattro Coupé--this is one of 99 sold in Canada, althouth this one is modded with MOMO steering wheel+shifter, König (if I remember) wheels, a catback exhaust, lowered suspension and what appears to be a stage 3 turbo. I'm not sure about the last. It was sitting on the lot of my neighbourhood Audi dealer, into which I snuck in while it was locked ()

https://i202.photobucket.com/albums/aa129/TSIPRQO/061508122954.jpg

3. A 1967 (I believe--correct me if I'm wrong) Ford Mustang GT. Beside a liquor store. Oh yeah!

https://i202.photobucket.com/albums/aa129/TSIPRQO/062108103052.jpg

4. Finally, a bit of an oddity. It's the Nissan in the intersection--karma to whomever can see the funny thing first!

https://i202.photobucket.com/albums/aa129/TSIPRQO/062108181256.jpg

Enjoy!

[edit: sorry about the last Audi pic, it won't let me rotate. Check the link to see the original]
