    Can't say I entirely agree with you...these two gems were quite nice I thought. By no means a new model, but definitely more of an eye candy than some new lambos IMO.

    Was going to go into Luk Geng first then Tai Mei Tuk but was forced to make a U turn halfway in due to a E36 M3 that crashed and literally burnt! Went back to Luk Geng after breakfast at Tai Mei Tuk and was able to catch a glimpse of the lovely GT2

    Oh yeah, forgot about those. The roof on that 550 looks...meh. Reminded me of a Dodge Viper from some angles o_O Plate is cool though

    I saw that E36 as well - didn't take a pic, thought it was a wreck someone had left there. Must be a pretty crap day for him. Half of the TMT carpark was full of those E36's.

    I also went to Luk Keng after all the cars had left, but didn't see much of interest so just left - saw your Elise, AC6. Was thinking about the license plate and then I realised what it meant :p

    A bit sad to see that the guy with the dark blue LP560 switched to a green LP570, I liked that colour :p

    Ah, what an amazing Barchetta. I love the 550/575 and this has to be one of my favourite F-cars. Although I'm not keen onthe hard-top the car looks stunning with the top open. I've seen the 2BNJOY Barchetta parked up with a cover on a few times with a LOT of amazing cars parked nearby including a 328GTS, 512BBi, a CLK63 Black and a very hardcore orange GT3RS. If it's the same owner then full marks to him for his collection. Wonderful to see it out in the open!

    EDIT: Just seen the GT2. What a cracking car, probably more suited to a track but I am a real sucker for them in all their wide-arched, big-scooped, roll caged glory! I have seen a couple of originals around HK. Wonder how many we have here (er, there)? We do have a lot of imposters though. I did email Porsche Club HK once to ask them to identify a silver one that I saw was real or not but they didn't respond unfortunately. Here are a couple of mine that I snapped around HK in the past...

    I assume you were in the 348 Convertible following it when it left? I took a video when you left, sounded like a 355. Was kinda expecting a roar from the DB9, lol.

    It's missing a letter though :p

    ApeGen: I'm guessing that Zonda was on HK Island? Hate how I live so freaking far away. Guess a Zonda was out and about today, just not where I was, LOL. Second pic is like an insane contrast - 10mil HKD+ car against some construction work.

    I love the RUF!

    Reminds me so much of the 90s Macau Supercar cup Kevin vs. Charles era...

    See that red Vette around quite a lot. It's a RHD conversion, but not the only Vette in HK. I have photographed (poorly) a bronze C6 left-hooker in Tsuen Wan which I was very surprised to see!

    That RUF CTR is amazing! I would love to see that around one day. Also, the location of that Zonda is excellent for photographs, what a great contrast.

    I arrived in Hong Kong on Sunday for two weeks. What an awesome city; having a great time!

    Pass by the hotel Phantom every morning and have seen a bunch of Ferrari's around the streets; also saw a vanquish with licence plate 'M 007' or something similar^^

    What did prompt me to make a post here was a Mansory Stallone 599 outside of Pacific Place apartments. I don't know why I didn't take a picture.. :(

    The third car is a Humber. If I was to guess, I would say a Humber Pullman, although it could be a Humber Imperial or Humber Sprite or Humber Hawk as they all looked pretty similar. They were built in UK around 1945-1955.

    That is a real R63 and the licence plate should give you a good hint as to the owner. He likes white cars and the Olympics...
