Re: Recap of Japanese F1 fleet

Yes, all those pics are quite well known. I think all have been posted here at one time or another. But its the thought that counts

Re: Recap of Japanese F1 fleet

Was doing some late night browsing and bumped into these two:



I have no info on where and when these were taken, the only reference I have is that it was among a Gallardo and an Enzo, so it can not be too many years ago
It doesn't seem to be Light Auto 1's showroom, I got that far.


The question now is: which #? ~edit~ Cannot be #018, this one is greenish+green interior. Nope, I really don't have a clue. I think it's up to the guru's do decide

And oh yeah, more pics of the Gulf GTR spotted earlier in this thread:

It's chassis #051 - the former Meissner car from Sweden, last seen for sale by KS Auto-Handel in Germany. The one major giveaway to that fact are the green shift knob and e-brake handle.

So some cars leave Japan and others arrive - very interesting and a great find. Thanks for the GTR shots as well.

Re: Recap of Japanese F1 fleet

Cool! Thanks Erik, for the info. Indeed, very nice to see a McLaren coming to Japan, helps to keep the thread alive :-)
Now all we need to find out is who the owner is and get some more pictures.
Still in the dark on what kind of event this was...

Re: Recap of Japanese F1 fleet

^Thanks for the pic bucciali! I think green definitely looks great on the F1. It doesn't appear to be the same as British Racing Green, but close in that shot. Looks good on it.

Re: Recap of Japanese F1 fleet

Here are the other highres images of #051 at this 'supercar' show. All credit goes to fellow-rarity-searcher F48Koenig, my dear 'colleague' on Supercarfrance, for passing me the link that contains these images!



To keep the track clean and F1 focused, here's a link to SupercarFrance.com to see pics of the other cars present at the show:
