Post all the cool cars that you see in your day-to-day lives. No reposting will be tolerated of any kind, banning will follow. Only links from imgur or reddit will be allowed.

Try to name the car in your post title, if you don't know the car it's okay. Also include the location where you found the car.

Post what YOU find IRL! Not what you find on the internet.

About the term "exotic"...
While most posts here are for European super/hyper cars, they don't have to be. The term is subjective, the word foreign is a matter of perspective and where you live, and we get that. Just make an honest effort to post only what you feel is exotic. If you need some help, consider these factors (in no particular order):

Price
Rarity/Limited production
Power/performance
Styling

If you are still wondering, check out the top all time posts to get an idea of what the sub expects. Remember though, absolutely no reposting is allowed, banning will follow.

If your car doesn't fit the bill around here, that's ok, try our friends over at r/spotted.

About car shows...
As discussed here:

No international car shows, such as those organized by the manufacturers/trade groups. Period. It's just not spotting.
Local or informal "enthusiast" meet ups are ok, but if you have multiple photos to post from an event they MUST be in an album.

Dealer pics are considered cheating and generally not allowed, but some exceptions can be made for truly incredible spots. In other words, if you are going to call a dealer pic a "spot", make it count! We are talking 1of## rarity here.

Please try to show the whole car and do not post extreme close ups of the steering wheel, brake calipers, bumpers, etc. They are impossible to tell if they are spots, and just look odd here and don't really fit the sub.

Feel free to visit our friends over at r/carporn, r/coolcarsforsale, and r/usercars too!
