These are the interesting cars I saw in New York so far. Not bad for three months. I'm surprised by the lack of 458s etc. though, I thought Manhattan would be full of those GT sportscars. But at least there's a boatload of pretty S-classes and Panther based cars which I'm always delighted to see.

Maybach 57S. Always loved these, and I frankly don't get why the Phantom was the far great success.

The red, super long Phantom can be seen quite often. I'm not sure whether it's a high end limousine service or some super rich's private whip. The red color makes me think the latter. It also screams newly rich.

American iron. While they might not seem noteworthy for some, these cars always make me as a European stop and take a closer look.

Two cool Mercedes. The S123 was a Diesel and pretty beaten up, but being an old Merc it of course keeps rolling.

This Alfa in Brooklyn has to stay outside during the cold winter. Poor thing, especially as it looks like a car in mid restoration. I guess all the garage money has been spent on the Alfa's rust and mechanics?

Awesome spottings. I love when I visit big cities and get to see al the expensive, rare, or just unusual cars that I don't see as much of here.

Nope! Do they allow peasants like me in their holy halls?

It's exactly why I photographed it - I've never seen such a mint car. It was literally show room spec, and such an odd choice to keep an 80s Volvo that clean.

Hey, I would probably try to do that as well (but at the same time rack up several hundred thousand miles)...esp if it's the manual turbo wagon that my dad used to have...
