Silver Porche Boxster

I love the silver colored Porche Boxster after seeing it appear in a TV show. On one Sunday afternoon, I was pleasantly surprised to find this car parked next to my own normal car in a basement carpark after my shopping. Hence I took some photos of it before I left.

I also had a good view of the car interior, which was largely furnished in dark red color, though I didn't take it's interior photos. I think there is a similar silver Porche Boxster 'living' in my neighbourhood but I seldom get to see it these days. Luckily this photo of the same model makes up for it!

Red Lotus Elise

This striking crimson car was spotted at Tanjong Pagar area during one evening. I seldom see a red colored Lotus Elise and here it is! Fortunately I managed to capture some shots of it before the sky became too dark for photography!

This car model is not very big when you see it in person. Nonetheless, it's still very cool looking with its unique style and personality! I'm glad that I came across it that day!

Pink Pagani Zonda Roadster

This is the 2nd time I've seen this particular Pagani Zonda! It used to be yellow in color and I had first spotted and blogged about it last year. Then during the F1 period in Singapore (Sep 2008), I read in a local tabloid papers that the owner sent it to Italy to have it repainted pink. There was a photo of it on that newspaper article where it was shown parked in front of a hotel near Marina Square, I think.

I told another local supercar enthusiast that there is a pink Pagani Zonda in Singapore and he found it unbelievable that these cars exist in such unusual colors here. Well at least it's not a strong but pale shade of pink. From afar, it looks a bit like beige. I wonder what made the owner decide on pink for his supercar? I'd love to see a light pink Lamborghini someday. I think it would look quite pretty too in that color!

Yellow Ferrari GTB 599 Fiorano

I had been facing a 'Lamborghini' drought for the past months. Firstly, I haven't been to Orchard Road and other places that are hotspots for viewing such supercars. I didn't shop so frequently as before. Hence I'd been viewing and gathering some YouTube videos of Lamborghinis in Singapore instead.

One day, I parked my car at the open air carpark behind Hilton Hotel and next to Wheelock Place. I was very surprised to spot this bright yellow Ferrari GTB 599 Fiorano parked there. I seized the chance to take its photos and I'm glad I did. When I returned 2 hours later, the Ferrari had left! It was my first time seeing the GTB 599 Fiorano in person. I find that it's huge and tall for a supercar!

F1 Renault racing car

This F1 Renault racing car was on display in front Marriot Hotel during the F1 season in Singapore last month. There were endless streams of people taking photos of it, hence it was tough getting these clear shots of the car without having strangers blocking the view of the car.

This direct side view shot was the hardest photo to take. You can see someone standing at the far corner of the photo, but at least the view of the car is unblocked in this shot! I nearly gave up since it was not a Lamborghini, but a 'by-the-way' kind of photo to take.

I didn't really get into the F1 craze last month despite my fondness and admiration for Lamborghinis and fast supercars in general. I do not fancy race cars that are shaped like F1 cars. They kinda resemble geckos sans the 'tail'. I know the design is for aero-dynamics reasons but I still do not like it. Nevertheless, these photos of a real F1 car still make good souvenirs of the first F1 race event held in Singapore!

Green Lamborghini Gallardo

This lovely and striking green Lamborghini Gallardo was parked outside Mandarin Oriental Hotel. I was there for a school friend's wedding dinner and when we all came out of the hotel, we were pleasantly surprised by this rare sight of a supercar in an unsual color. After my friends and I took some photos, the driver came out with his lady companion and then drove off silently. We followed them to the main road but the Lamborghini remained silent as it was driven down the main road..

White Audi R8

I first saw this Audi model parked in front of Tangs a few months ago but didn't get a chance to take a photo of it. Then I saw it being driven along Orchard Road twice. Finally I came across this white R8 parked at Hilton Hotel. Too bad I wasn't able to take a photo of its front view because another car came along and parked there, blocking out most of the car view for a good photo! Nevertheless, it's a quite beautiful car!

Black Lamborghini Gallardo Nera

I believe that this black Lamborghini Gallardo is a Nera because of the matte finishing on its bonnet and roof etc. At first when I was approaching it from a afar, I thought that there was some reflection or mud on its bonnet. It was only when I went nearer did I notice the huge 'raging bull' logo emblossed on the bonnet! Super cool!

Now this particular Lamborghini was spotted at the most unexpected place and timing. I was actually going on a day trip to Malaysia that day. So there I was waiting for my tour mates and tour bus to arrive at the Newton Circus Hawker Centre carpark.

I was a bit early, reaching there before them at around 7.30am on that Saturday morning. Needless to say the carpark was quite devoid of cars and people. It sure didn't take me long to spot this baby in the near empty carpark!

As an added bonus, just before I left the place in my tour bus, the Lamborghini driver came out from the Hawker Centre (after his breakfast there presumably). He started the engines of the Nera and drove it quietly past my tour bus (on the side that I was seated!) to exit the carpark. When he turned to the main road outside, he accelerated off but in a moderated volume of the engine sound. I think he must be tired from a Friday night of partying at St James or Clarke Quay perhaps, and was at Newton Circus for a quick breakfast before heading home to sleep!
