Every Saturday, members post a photo based on a theme. The theme for April 28, 2007 is RARE. Become a Photo Hunter. Visit the blog roll.

This is a photo that I took of the featured Ford GT car during the 3rd Manila International Autoshow held last March 2007. To us living in the Philippines, this car is rare, meaning we don’t usually see this vehicle on the road. What is even rare with this car? My 5yo son can identify the model of the car itself, not just the make.

That is one hot car! I thought it was Ferrari at first.

Mine’s up too! :)

  • Looks like an exotic car noh? Have another one more exotic looking than that one, a Lamborghini but seeing one made me feel different and I wasn’t able to take a good photo, :D

it’s probably pretty rare anywhere actually and would earn a second glance

  • Wow. I wonder if this would be categorized as an exotic car? Would have definitely like to ride in it, ;)

This would be a rare car to see on the road here on the east coast as well. Perhaps in Hollywood, or Miami but not in Virginia Beach.

  • :D Really? I think its one of the gas guzzler cars that burn fuel faster than other cars of its kind.

Well, I definitely have not seen one! They would be rare to see around here too. Good post.

Everyone is invited to my blog to see my “rare” post. Hope to see you there.

  • Really? You haven’t seen one? Thanks, Alice. I will go visit your rare photo.

I see your son and my husband have something in common. They both love cars! Thought too it’s a Ferrari. :)

  • My son doesn’t only love cars. He is obsessed with them. He can name exotic cars as well as Japanese cars. When we went to that Autoshow, the man in the Subaru booth laughed when I asked my son what kind of spoiler was on their car and he answered, “Stock yang spoiler.” He even discusses the finer points of a Subaru Impreza vs Lancer Evolution with his father. He is 5.9 yo. Thanks for the visit!

julie, when i first looked at the picture, i had trouble identifying it. didn’t realize it was a car..hehe.

just yesterday, on the way to work, i had to take a detour because there was a car show going on. this area where i live is big on antique car. too bad, i was working that day or i could have gone there and took some pictures of the unusual cars.

  • Vintage cars are unusual too. There’s a group here that have them but most members belong to those enthusiasts who have more in their pockets. That was what I first wanted to put, a photo of an old car from the same show but then, I think I have a preference for mean machines.

  • Thanks, Teena. Will be visiting your photo in a while. :)

Sorry for the late visit on your photo hunt. My husband loves going to car shows too. Amazing how your 5-yr old has a passion for cars at an early stage.

  • Thanks Rach. Julian’s love for cars started when he was around 3 years old. Back then he was already playing the Need for Speed Underground pc game. Your photo was rare too. You are so patient to put together pictures of your cousins. :)
