Combo's and Strange Sightings

Spotted: beautiful blue colour on a Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren!
May 24, 2012, 9:00 AM The Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren is one of the most famous supercars from the last decade. Even nowadays this car looks very modern despite the car is in production since 2004. With its 626 bhp and 780 Nm of torque, you have a car of which you dont have to be ashamed. What stands out on this SLR McLaren is the fact that it is often spotted in a very boring colour. Black and grey are the most common colours in our database. But sometimes we see something special, like this car which was recently spotted in Abu Dhabi.

Spotted: historical livery on a Ferrari 599 GTO
May 23, 2012, 3:02 PM We have seen some historic livery’s on the Ferrari 599 GTO before. These creations were often very stylish and is wasn’t necessary to know the background story of it to like it. But this is necessary with the following livery, because the colours are not very common. Luckily spotter xdefxx showed us a Ferrari 250 GTO with the same livery.

The straight-six engine returns in the BMW M3 F30!
May 23, 2012, 1:00 PM It only lasted one generation. The mighty V8 from the BMW M3 will be downsized. We already saw this coming after the M5 and M6 lost two cylinders, but eventually it is a bummer. The sound will definitely change. The rumble will disappear and the characteristics of the engine will change. Lovers of the older M3 series will only be happy with the return of the straight-six engine and we can also understand that.

Gumball 2012: Daily report 2
May 23, 2012, 11:00 AM The second day in New York is all about getting used to the time difference. Some members of our team were out of bed at 5 am already, just because their biological clock isn’t used to the time difference in New York. So we all stood up early, went into the city and talked through the latest plans. It will all start Thursday morning. Stickering the car and registering the participants. These are just a few things of what we have to do on Thursday.

Number thirteen: Bentley LE MANSory
May 23, 2012, 9:00 AM A few weeks ago, twelve of the total twenty four copies of the Bentley LE MANSory were in our database and recently, number thirteen was uploaded. As we all expected, this spot comes from Dubai, the Walhalla of tuned Bentleys, Aston Martins, Ferraris and everything else. This thirteenth copie of the Bentley LE MANSory is spotted in stylish white. This comes in handy with the very high temperatures in Dubai. In summer it can be even 40 degrees Celsius. Than you can better have a white Bentley!
