Last model ... and looks a higher model as it has the larger factory alloys and skirt kit on it.

I saw this one yesterday too... heading through Richmond.

Spotted the Police Lotus Exige today at Milperra, too nice for a cop car, they wanted to up their visibility/profile and it sure works, made me slow down, lucky for them I was in the F250, if I was in the Cougar I might of given them a run for there money (Ha Ha)

Another Cougar. This one was black and had THE biggest mufflers hanging out the back on either side and couldn't recognise whether it had factory or non-factory wheels for the road grime/brake dust on them!

Whereabouts Eddie? Please tell me they weren't cannons... I've seen a blue one around with a shopping list and a huge Skyline 20" cannon hanging off the back (angled-style) and it looks crap... I would go so far as to disown it as a Cougar since it's been so far removed!

photn · 21-02-2007, 08:03 PM

i saw a Nissan Skyline GT i think it was and a nice Silver LR zetec with 17"mp3's.unfortunately the pic was crap cause as i took it he took off lol.

there where ppl in the car wen i took the pic lol.. was weird lol. they gave me dirty's. hehehe

Fast Eddie · 21-02-2007, 08:20 PM

Dan, I'm sorry but I'm sure they were (but I'm not really up to speed on what cannons look like!) and it was just rolling through my main street shopping centre so you couldn't really hear it.

Sean, What model of Nissan do you think this is? I've certainly not seen this before. It might be an Infiniti??

A bit of both actually! In America it was sold as the Infiniti G35 (just as they sell our 'Honda Integra Type-S' as the 'Acura RSX'). But in New Zealand (which I think is where those cars are imported to Australia through), it was badged as the V35 (opposed to the 'R' series) Nissan Skyline 350GT. Pretty much has the same platform and VQ35DE engine as in the 350Z. Strange one because for the first time, the Skyline didn't have turbos, a straight six or a GT-R 'hero' version.

Oh, and in case you're wondering...I just grabbed this info off wikipedia...I'm not a Nissan freak or anything like that :P And I still haven't see one on the road yet ......jealous :(.

Fast Eddie · 25-02-2007, 09:06 PM

On the way down to Wakefield Park a MkI Escort Speedway prepped. Didn't have any glass windows/screens and the doors were welded shut!

Seano · 11-03-2007, 09:33 PM

Spotted a Focus ST170 in Sydney Car Wash at Baulkham Hills today at about 4:30pm. Plates were AC-1515 from memory.

Also spotted Model T Ford utility, westbound on M4 on Friday. An odd sight seeing a Model T putting along the highway at about 40km/h.

Yep, I've seen one of these in Newtown, they are badged as a 350GT, the one I saw was silver and had to do a double take when I saw it as I had never seen one before, looked massive on the road...very very HOT.

Yeh, they have those in the US. I think they're badged as an Infiniti G35. Check Need ford Speed Underground 2 for further details

Blue_ST170 · 12-03-2007, 02:42 PM

yep they are....seen that guy around a few times...

**Mechan1k** · 12-03-2007, 09:33 PM

Saw an immaculate MkI Escort on the M7 today ... with custom "ESCORT" plates on it.

I didn't close enough to get a pic of it though with my phone .... but it was in mint condition.

HERE is a pic of it for you. It sure is one sweet Escort, both inside and out

**Mechan1k** · 13-03-2007, 01:22 AM

Hell yeah ... that's the one

Teki04 · 25-03-2007, 08:06 PM

Spotted a fellow member today - Can't remember his name though.

It was that light blue LX colour (Tonic?) WP LX model with Clear Euro Style rear lights and also 17" rims, and lowered.

Almost certain this car was on the last drive I made with the Clio.

Fast Eddie · 26-03-2007, 05:17 PM

A AC Cobra (most likely replica) on the Northern Rd yesterday on my way to Goulburn and on the way back on the Hume Fwy Jim Read's Top Fuel Dragster transporter.

A silver Cougar here at rockdale RTA depot. completely stock. looking good.

Dshibi · 31-03-2007, 02:32 AM

Saw two Fiesta's tonight in Castle Hill - Showground Rd and Victoria Ave intersection, one was Damo, and I think the one in front may have been Ivan? I beeped them, not sure if they noticed me :P

Thought there might've been an EFC night cruise I didn't know about lol

Dan

Ives · 31-03-2007, 07:40 AM

HA! it was you! me and Damo were on Victoria Rd wanting to turn right to Showground Rd. I heard some beeps and I was like "what's going on?" and then I saw a black Cougar (with rims... didnt see the body kit much cos it was dark... and the car's black :P)... anyways I saw the Cougar driving on Showground Rd. heading towards Castle Towers way. I was thinking "hmm, was that who I think it was?"

No, there wasnt a night cruise.

Me and Damo were invited to a poker night, organized by a guy on compactcup.com forum (a new forum for compact/small/supermini owners)..... and guess who were the two last men 'standing'

On the way home, we spotted an ST170 at Norwest Boulevard turning right onto Windsor Rd.

Fast Eddie · 31-03-2007, 04:50 PM

Last night on the way to INXS on the Citywest Link was driving alongside a beautiful dark blue Audi RS4. I had to wind down the window and just listen to the sound.

simonr · 31-03-2007, 06:24 PM

I saw a Peugot 306 Gti? the 2.0 Rallye one today in Balmain... with St170 Rims! looked pretty nice

Fast Eddie · 08-04-2007, 05:11 PM

Orange XR5 Turbo with A.C.T. Plates (I think the owner met us when we had the Cruise to Bathurst recently) in the carpark at Mt. Panorama yesterday. And today, I had a chat with Phil from Classic Ford Club (Blue Cosworth Cortina) in the Paddock at Mt. Panorama.

simonr · 08-04-2007, 11:24 PM

Spotted EURO4D!!

On Oxford Street in Paddington on Friday
