As above really, i was reading the dream car topic and was wondering whether people had seen many 'dream cars' on the road. maybe not just astons/ferrari's etc but the really rare or unusual ones.

i'll start. i saw this driving from brighton to southampton a couple of years ago.



i've seen a carrera gt drive past me as well, that thing was LOUD lol

On the last bank holiday there was a maclaren SLR 722 parked outside the De Vere Grand in Brighton

DeLorean (the best of all!!), Carrera GT, Bentley Continental GT, Ferrari F40, Renault 5 Turbo 1, New SLR, Lambos of all sorts, ... But usualy I don't look for loud exhausts... Not in my interest (except when they sound pre-war ish )

I`ve seen quite a few Ferraris, Lambos, Porsche`s, and Audi R8`s. Saw a new Nissan GTR the other day, was surprised how big and chunky it was.

Gallardo Spyder that I had on hire, the noise it made was amazing

Around this area there is no end of them (yet i'm not sure whats the point of having them around here as its all built up)

Ferraris, Lambos, Porsches you name it we have seen it around here (well to an extent - they cant afford anything more)

Virtually everything, normally when I go to Silverstone or Donington...Ferrari Enzo, F40, F50; Porsche Carrera GT; Bugatti EB110; Jag XJ220; Audi R8, Quattro etc etc

I'd take the F40 or Jag over anything I've seen.

[t@z]

i've seen jk in his black enzo driving down the m40 thats bout the most famous.....other than that pretty much everything living in surrey/ used to be london way

[davegreory42]

i can safely say that most have you have seen more than me, seen a fair few ferrari and lambos but the more common ones. i got raced off the lights not too long ago by a 575 with what i imagine was some sort of race exhaust, sounded epic.

the cul de sac i live in has got quite a few good cars but none like Burnard said. across the road they have a tvr cerbera and a holden monaro. our close/family friends have a a bmw m5 and 350BHP evo vii.

the evo is the fastest car i've ever been in. he got 140mph out of it on the road down the ower roundabout (if any of you know southampton/romsey area?)

what was the Gumpert like?

[newdawn1st]

Local, couple of Lambo's and most TVR's, not local seen lots of supercars but that was in Dubai

edit: could add some pics, I totally suck at id'ing cars
