Saw, for the third time, yesterday, a Nissan GT-R. Each one I've seen has been the same colour, so it's entirely possible they were all the same car, but I'm surprised even one exists, here.

There're tons of GTR's over in Singapore. Even more than 350 & 370Z's combined! So common, in fact, that it's barely considered rare anymore. :lol:

And here's more where that pic came from:

Image

The SV is in front of the yellow Scuderia 16M. If you can't see towards the back, fret not:

Image

....and it doesn't end there...

END.

You have to wonder how he has to park his cars in accordance to which car he'd like to drive out next 'cuz his garage isn't exactly practically designed.

That camo LP640 is truly amazing. It's not a 670, you can tell by the lack of fixed rear spoiler ;)

We know. He said the SV is out of shot in front of the yellow F430 Scuderia Spider, and it's clearly a SuperVeloce in white in the first pic he showed because of the larger air intakes over the standard LP640.

Also, the Rolls closest to the camera in the 2nd picture is actually a Ghost, as it looks too small to be a Phantom.

Ahh, the reference to military style vinyls confused me. Does that mean he owns 2 Murcs, both camouflage wrapped?

He has 3 Murcielago's. Only the LP640 and the SV has the military paint theme on 'em. The Murcielago Roadster is in plain verde ithaca. :)

Yepp! It's an SV, 100%. I've seen it in person. When I meant the back, I was referring to the picture, not the car. Sorry if I gave you the wrong idea.. :)

Here's a closer shot:

Nope. It's a Phantom. The DHC with a blue canvas rooftop cover. And word has it that he's getting (or has gotten) the Ghost as well. :)

Ah now I see, the normal Phantom is actually an old model, probably about 2003.

I thought it may have been a Ghost also because of the headlamp arrangement but then I double-checked and it's completely different.

The Drophead, which I'm assuming is the one in the background under the garage, is a newer model with a different headlamp arrangement.

Hmm, not really. All DHC's have similar headlamp arrangements as far as I know since the first one rolled out from production. :)

It looked better on the LP640 'cuz he went all out. As for the SV, it's a mess, I havta agree.

Proofs that money doesn't buy you good taste :P

Overall a nice collection of cars, but I wouldn't want to ruin a nice painjob that Lambos have.

LOL he's just wanting to do Hot Pursuit IRL. Thing is having that camo only does one thing, makes you totally unique and therefore extremely easy to track...

Not totally unique though, I know a guy who runs a slammed Mk1 TT 225 and that's been Camo wrapped for about 3 years now. It does look pretty tasty though, with "stealth bomber" satin black wheels (Bentley monoblocks) and roof.

Saw a Lamborghini Diablo and Ferrari 308 (I think) the other day, and a maroon-colored Ferrari F430 Spyder today.

Saw the brand-spanking new Rolls-Royce Ghost about a fortnight back. It still looks pretty massive for a typical sedan. I'd still go for a Bentley Continental Flying Spur Speed or the Maserati Quattroporte Sport GT if given the choice. :)

And about a couple of months back, I saw this pretty interesting E92 M3... in yellow:

Plus these:
