Spotted: Someone's Little Collection
 
I was at a birthday party at my friend's apartment. In the parking lot I find these treasures. Here are some crappy iPhone pictures. I will try not to disclose the location though in all respect to the anonymous owner lol

The Citroen DS amazed the most. Some cars were in better nick than others. All were dusty but with mint original looking paint and rust free!

i wonder if dude has it set up like d-plates. he has 1 set of plates that he can put on any of those rides? that would be so fucking boss.

this is probably d/t so that's even more baller.

Wow, that is just freakin cool.

Collections like this remind me how broke I really am :(

swfk 01-29-2011 08:39 AM

It didn't seem like they've been recently driven though, all of them had a lot of dust. Chrome was fading and such. Some were even backed right into the wall touching the wall.

On a side note, this guy's got 7 Studebakers. Crazy. I might be wrong though, I don't know much about Studebakers. Out of all the cars I only knew the DS hah. Someone shed some light!

omg, :jerkit: i didnt know there was DS's in vancouver, thats so hot

Now that I think about it, maybe these cars belong to resident(s) of the nearby senior home. One of my teachers in highschool told me about how seniors at senior homes can't drive their collector cars but still kept them. So they end up being parked at the senior home parking lot. Perhaps this one person had too many cars for one lot and had parked more across the street? I don't know lol

Im obviously not the auto aficionado that you all are, 'cause I think most of those cars are ugly.

c63amg 01-29-2011 07:02 PM

^nah, i disagree

MindBomber 01-29-2011 10:15 PM

12 parking spaces x $25k purchase price for a parking space= $300k just for a place to let the collection sit. Someone has exquisite taste, deep pockets and an impressive knowledge base.

What happened to stall number 44?
Asian owner? :troll:

AVS_Racing 01-30-2011 09:20 AM

I wonder how much those cars are worth

Thanks! My S2 means a lot to me:) Perhaps I should share my little story haha. When I was younger my dad would drive me to school with it and I always wanted to drive it one day. I remember the car being in the family as far as my memory can go into my childhood. And now I drive myself in the same car to school whenever it's sunny ya dee ya dee ya da that's my little story hahah

Sorry, I don't remember when Alfa Romeo switched from S2 to S3 where they went with electronic fuel injection. Mine was of course SPICA but alas, I was given the opportunity to sell it to a coveted collector. :)

Oops I didn't notice that you thought mine was an S3! No worries though! Very small picture so it's hard to tell. I think S3s were the ones using electronic fuel injection. No matter what though, Spiders are beautiful cars! Seeing them on the road is just awesome.
