A bunch of really rich people in really expensively (most dubiously modified) vehicles came to a parking garage in my city. Here’s some pictures.

First, some of my favorites that I took the time to edit:

Oh, and I saw my first Huayra... behind a fence... :(

Now for some unedited shots:

720 #1 of like 6

.2 Turbo S

ABSOLUTE UNIT

This 612 Scag sounded incredible.

This CGT Supersports was absolutely crazy. You could actually hear a good bit of spool.

I like the composition here but it’s quite grainy

dat ass.

This Silk Cut spin-off livery was one of the best of the whole event.

So, so nice.

The back of the Fauxrari in the lede image

Uh, this thing...

ABSOLUTE UNIT 2: Electric Boogaloo

675LT tinkered with by Hypercar Development

Those tips though.

Sweet red Vacuum Cleaner car

That Salamone guy just bein’ a bro

720S #????

These SVs sound incredible

.1 3RS, fairly tastefully done.

These LCs look so good widebodied.

The “HellCab”

This guy was a real douche

This guy in a Trump mask riding shotgun in a Hennessey 6x6

Kurt Busch’s NASCAR-liveried vacuum cleaner

And, this thing. The roof box was indeed full of cash.

So, yeah. Unfortunately, I didn’t get to see a few of the cars I really wanted to see (The Guntherwerks 400R, Veyron or CLK-GTR, Gulf 570S) since they weren’t there by the time I had to leave, but it was still an awesome and eardrum-destroying experience.

Ahh so that’s what it was. I was northbound on I-75 north of Detroit Monday afternoon and this group was heading southbound with Full Michigan Highway patrol escort.

It’d be fun to audit these people. where’s the guillotine?

Did they not stop at the Fish Temple?

There must be a rule, or something made that if you think that you’re funny for wrapping your Lamborghini in F1 Ferrari livery, you shouldn’t have access to said car, or a license for that matter,

They hold these rallies because inherited money cannot buy access to powerful people.

I’ve seen that Louis knockoff livery Aventador in town. I think it's horrible.

06/28/2018 at 12:11

Actually , it was really well-done; p robably one of my favorite liveries there. The guys who drove it were actually on the less douchey end of the spectrum, surprisingly. I just wonder how the hell the got the licensing for it.

Huh, it had WA plates. But yeah I’m not too crazy about it either.

My friend from college went by to snap some pictures yesterday, too. In general, I’m a fan of most of these cars. Buuuut, not their owners.

I’d take those McLarens home. And the Jaaaaaaaaaaaaaag is just brilliant. I’d have to have the chrome wrap on the 675LT removed, because it’s both garish and silly because of carbon fiber.

deprecated account > boxrocket
06/28/2018 at 12:55

The chrome is definitely garish, but as you can see it actually looked really cool in low light and accentuated the lines of the car just that little bit more. That said, 0 /10 would not daily that wrap.

I am not. I went to college in Memphis so I am familiar with the area / still have a lot of friends that live there haha

Oh ok cool! What does he look like, generally? There were a few other people there taking pictures that I talked to. And UofM or Rhodes?

CBU haha

Skinny guy with black hair and usually has a pretty full beard. He has a grabber blue Boostang and normally wears a snapback haha

Oh yeah, don’t know how I forgot about that I applied there lmao. And I’m pretty sure I was right next to him at one point !

SPAMBot - Horse Doctor > deprecated account
06/28/2018 at 13:47

Haha it’s a small school without the cool architectural like Rhodes. Easier to forget. A lot of the pictures looked like they were similar locations so I’m sure you were!

Yeah my friend was with them until 3am doing photography.

deprecated account > SPAMBot - Horse Doctor
06/28/2018 at 13:50

If he was wearing like tar heel blue athletic shorts then that was him. I sorta floated around between 3 or 4 spots, but the one in the lede image was my favorite and where I think he was.

K-Roll-PorscheTamer > deprecated account

Never have nor will be a fan of rallies because I’m too butthurt about the fact that I’ll never get to do this in any of those vehicles (minus the garish and negatively attention grabby wraps and liveries) unless I win a small fortune or lottery. And even though my friend who does photography for this and a few other rallies says riding along is fun, that’s a cheap consolation prize worth nothing to me. I’d do horrible things for that 400R though.

Then again, I’m glad I don’t have the money or brains (maybe lack thereof) to make uglify cars like this and show off. I wish there was a rally for cars less than $50k or normies.

Its a very real species! Like unicorns! You just have to squint your eyes as you look at a Laffer curve and you’ll see them.

Great photos from our rally. Definitely some ignorant comments below, but it comes with the territory.
