I took this on my way to the bowling alley earlier, from the back seat of a friend's Polo. What does someone with a GTR sitting on the driveway keep under a sheet? Oppo mass guessing: GO! Here's a slightly closer shot—there's actually a decent bit of detail if you hit expand:

Mitsu 3000GT

Judging solely from the fact that are bed sheets covering the house windows instead of proper window treatments, I'd guess it's some junk car and the GTR is just visiting his much less fortunate younger brother's house.

That's actually a pretty good shout. I was thinking about Mark 2 RX7s and FTOs.

Gallardo judging by the angular intakes? Looks a little tall though.

MR2 with a GT wing?

Perhaps. I imagine there's a lot of bad blood in that family...

(I think the sheet's there because they're doing renovations/painting. It's fairly standard practice where I live, and the house looks to be in too nice a shape besides.)

300ZX or S14

Yeah, it looks a little too tall, and a little too rounded to be a Gallardo. It's possible, though.

It's a little higher off the ground than I'd expect for an MR2, but that could work.

300ZX would fit very well. It matches the shape, and if he has a GTR, he's probably a Nissan/Datsun enthusiast. I'd like to imagine it's a Skyline GT-R of some sort, but the shape and size just don't fit.

yeah now that I expanded the photo I can't see the side skirt at all so I'm retconning my guess.

Okay, I don't know if you're right, but I so, so hope you are.

Look at the roof of the house though, it's certainly been neglected and well overdue for replacement. Only way to know for sure what car is under the cover is to hop out and have a little peek...

The roof could certainly use some work, but a lot of people leave moss growing up there here; it's kind of an arse to deal with, what with the rain and all. If they're renovating, I imagine they'll have a go at it eventually.

I suppose I could sneak back up there to take a look...

Yup. Nissan dudes usually have more than one
