Impressive, isn't it?

Coming back from the Rebel Run, we decided to stop in Monaco and stay overnight there. It was the first time (well, the first with a proper camera at least) I was in Monaco on a weekday - it was tuesday - and I was curious to see if it was as impressive as in weekends. Obviously, the area in front of the Casino wasn't very active in the morning... but the Scuderia and especially the 959 made my day! Funny to see a white 126 in front of the Ferrari garage

Night photos were shot without tripod... after a thousand failed blurry attempts

  The 595 is a catch!  Also, love the two black Ferraries (599 & 530 SC.), the color looks great on those cars.

Also, very interesting color on this 430. http://img102.imagevenue.com/img.php?image=14031_28_122_460lo.JPG

Montecarlo is always a big Luna-park! 
Impressive cars, Porsche 959 is a great sighting 
I really enjoy the shot of 126!!

Agree!  

Sorry dani, you wanted to ban me for the same reason and I'm spiteful   j/k

Nicely done! BTW, remember what you said the other days about MC and the F1 week-end!

Tripods are actually forbidden by law in the area, including the Place du Casino

^^ Really ? It makes some sense actually 

Dani: Did you stayed in one of those 5 star hotels, with your car parked in front of the door, next to a Veyron ?? 

Nice Scuderia  Nice catch, the 959

Amazing as usual from Monaco, why do I have to live on this island!! 

LOVE the black Scud!

Sadly not, but we parked right in front of the Automobile Club de Monaco, which was pretty cool

Wow.  I wonder if they actually had a problem with too many people setting up for photography or is this just stupid bureaucracy?

I couldn't find the original text anymore but I remember they wrote it was to preserve people's (read : rich people in hotels) tranquility. That is BS because flashes popping up everywhere are more disturbing than a guy and a tripod.

Anyway, one thing is sure, you cannot use a tripod for long before the police tells you it's not allowed.

I haven't gone car spotting in a while.. Japan should give me good stuff to shoot and share!

I remember there were quite a few exotics around the Tokyo Tower... I remember I saw a full-black F355, 996 Turbo with Techart parts and a gorgeous Quattroporte. In the Gion district in Kyoto (where the Geyshas) there were also some nice cars... but well, I guess if you're lucky, you can find nice cars everywhere... especially Skylines and RX7 and NSX

I think I'll ask my cousin now that she's living there where are the hottest spots in Tokyo when it comes to car hunting

959  You have to be very lucky to spot one on the road, even in Monaco. I've seen 2 in my whole life, one at Spa many years ago and one last year at a classic motor show.
