The 13th of December 2009 it was about to happen, my first photo shoot. Of course I had shot some pictures of our own cars on a nice location, but that doesn’t really count. After two weeks of delay because of bad weather, that day it finally was about to happen.  

For this episode of the “matte colours” series we were once again flooded with cars that are, most of the times, wrapped in matte black. In part nineteen, seven out of the total of nineteen spots are Porsches. Besides, we see a 'wrapped' Aston Martin Vanquish. That's something we don't see that often. Porsches apparently are the most popular cars to wrap in matte black, especially the Cayenne. Audi's work fine in matte black as well, just like every part before in this series. Just keep reading and you’ll soon find out which cars we have listed this time!  

The weather forcast for next week doesn’t look that good at all for the Netherlands. Loads of snow are expected and temperatures below zero will be no exception. Not really the kind of weather to unleash your supercar. Monaco is a different story during these days with temperatures around eleven degrees centigrade and spring already peeking around the corner! Speaking of Monaco, that is the location of today’s spot of the day!  

The Ferrari 430 Scuderia is an extraordinarily popular car amongst Ferrari enthusiasts. It is a true racer with Ferrari-genes. Some even compare it to the sensational Ferrari Challenge Stradale, which is actually inferior when you look at performance. Ferrari supplied the CS already with striping all over the car, but it seems like the car suffers from identity issues, since now it wants to look like its younger brother.  

Last Saturday, our spot of the day was very well viewed, but that wasn’t that remarkable, for it was a nice combo in the PC Hooftstraat in Amsterdam. Today, we’ll just do the same again. The spot of the day was once again photographed near this well-known shopping street in Amsterdam, so this spot contains enough ingredients to crown it the spot of the day.  

What can you do to make your Maserati GranTurismo S even more though than it already is? The MC Concept was a predecessor of the fierce variant which Maserati showed in 2008, with the MC Sport Line package. We had to wait a long time for this package but it seems like the first copy is spotted in Belgium!  

Everyone has heard of it, the Nürburgring, a circuit incomparable to others. This circuit has been legendary for a long time. The most remarkable about the Nordschleife is that every person in the world can drive here for only a small fee. So many people annually do laps on “the Green Hell”. Officially it is not allowed to capture the laps on video, but something that is not allowed is of course very exciting. So we found a video on Youtube of two very remarkable men who did a lap. Only in an outstanding and unusual way.  

It is only the third one on Autogespot. We are talking about the Farbio GTS, a remarkable and especially light car. The car was spotted in Gent before and in Knokke-Heist, a white copy was spotted. So, this is the third one and remarkably, all of them were spotted in Belgium. When will it finally be Holland’s turn? Today, we have chosen this special car with a special colour as the spot of the day. Welcome, Farbio!  

A powerful BMW, for some people a real dream, for even more people completely unattainable. A photoshoot is a small consolation. For our first photoshoot we didn’t just have one of these BMW’s, we had two. Not bad at all.  

By itself, the BMW M3 E92 is a beautiful car. Some people find that they can twist this car. How about the large amount of tuners, large and small companies, who change the M3 completely or partially. Sometimes these are wonderful creations, but other times we can speak of a tiny failure. This time we saw a creation which we actually didn’t want to see.  

Today, the spot of the day can not be forgotten. We have chosen for a good old-fashioned spot, a spot with several special cars on the photo and it is a spot that is simply from the Netherlands. Not in Moscow, Monaco or London but just in Amsterdam. Today in the spot of the day, an Audi RS6 Avant C6 in combination with four other cars that are allowed on Autogespot.  

Supercars. They come in any size and type. There are the luxurious supercars, like the Bugatti Veyron or a Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren, and the true hardcore hypercars, such as a Caparo T1, Ariel Atom or a Gumpert Apollo. The spot from the German city Meerbusch, which we have chosen to be today’s spot of the day, certainly belongs to the category of hardcore supercars. Truly without compromise, not a lot of luxury, but oh so amazing. Today in the spotlights: a bizarre appearance called the Porsche 9ff GT9-R!  

A common series on Autogespot, but again we have found a couple of movies, the Lovely Sounds! A simple concept in which we show you the most fascinating soundtracks of classic and modern cars. Are you sick and tired of studying? Just turn up the volume and enjoy these lovely sounds!  

Welcome to Paris! The city of the Champs-Élysées, Arc de Triopmhe, Disneyland and the Louvre. Paris features more than these four tourist attractions. The French capital is also the perfect location to relax for just a few days. Besides the Seine, Île de la Cité, the Notre Dame and the La Defense business district, the city is also known for the famous cemetery Cimetière du Père-Lachaise. Paris is already for a long time a very accessible city for Dutch spotters, for the city is not too far away from the Netherlands. For this episode of “Best of.....” we once again travel to the capital of ‘La France’, Paris!  

A while ago we published the news that Ferrari was developing a superfast production-vehicle, which was going to be the Ferrari 599 GTO! Now, we have finally found spyshots of a camouflaged edition of the 599 GTO and besides, we have some pioneering information about this supercar!  

For car dealers, the intention is to sell as many cars as possible. Just selling cars the whole day will get you tired and bored. Therefore, two sales man in America had a good plan, “Let’s see how fast the cars go”. Autogespot would not be Autogespot when it isn’t about exclusive cars. This salesman reached a speed of 240 km/h in a Lamborghini Murciélago LP670-4! However, it ended a little less funny for the driver.  

The Swiss city of Zürich is less known than Geneva, amongst the spotters. Yet, this city offers much for fans of cars and photography. Besides the necessary sports cars there are also a lot of luxury cars driving around in Zürich. The Rolls-Royce Phantom is the perfect example here. Huge, luxury and classic. A classic car needs to have a classic colour. Or does it?  

Lego and cars, two things little boys dream about. At least... they used to. Some people leave it behind when puberty begins while others can’t leave it behind at all. You can make virtually anything with Lego, from simple fire stations to big cars. Via jalopnik.com we saw this nice piece of Lego.  

Via Ferrarichat.com, we recently found the first images of the Ferrari 599XX at the Valencia circuit. On Youtube we found a movie that supports the pictures and makes a good impression of the Ferrari 599XX on the track. The movie is also a good way to see how big and wide the car has become!  

Here it is again, the spot of the day! Today we have not chosen the nice Lamborghini which we had in mind for the spot of the day at first, but a decent Porsche 997 Turbo MKII. However, decent isn’t really the right word, as shown in the next spot. Brute, nice, fast and intrigue are more words that fit the spot of the day!
