Default Jan 28: DB7, E39 M5, Murcielago, 996TT, 997S...

What about going back in time once again and back in the streets? Also changed a bit the whole banner/signature idea.. I will now switch them for every update

Should I tell you you can see the whole 20 high-res pics set by clicking the previews?

This location is the one where I got the white Diablo.. pretty nice to take pics, but not when there is a fucking truck in front of the cars as it's the case for this goreous DB7


And right behind it, an SL55


Still one of my fav saloons


Ferraris in the rain are always interesting, but well, it is still just a Mondial :bah:


Slightly better.. rain and Murcielago


And the usual Porsches 996TT


And 997S

is that the anniversay Murcielago.

Latelly, i've started to like cars in white. A colour which I once though was plain boring now seems very attractive. The same goes to the red on the Porsche 997. It must look gorgeous in the flesh, for some reason customers in Poland opt for the rather ordinary black or silver paint.

thx as always

i guess it's ok if we jump back from time to time. the db7 is absolutely great, a britsh car in classic british green, wonderful. that's a rare sighting.

Sexy white and red 997s

The e39 M5 still looks god IMO - its a special car, there's no denying it

Like the DB7, but i prefer the California Sage Green Metallic - a bit of a less garish-green IMHO

like here :arrow: http://www.autoshow.ro/images/wallpa...0DB7-5_800.jpg

Thanks for the pics again 8)

Nope, it's a regular Murcielago, repainted in the anniversary color and with 2005 rims added.

Thanks TT for all those lovely Porsche pictures, especially the gorgeous 996TT.

I was surprised to see an RS2 picture when I opened your gallery. :shock:

I don't really want to complain, but you would have take more pictures of this RS2, it seemed well placed for that. But yes, I know, these pictures was shoot before your Audi RS4 B7 indepth effect.

Love the red 997S, seen a few myself and its definately a great colour for it!

THe 996TT might be a pretty common car nowadays but I still get excited about them, such a usable beast.

Thanks for all the pics, nice set as always - expect that shitty Corvette.

I use Photohop and usually I just do the regular "sharpen", sometimes I have to fade it a bit, sometimes I even need "shapen more", usually faded to something between 40 and 60%
