A 2017 Mercedes-AMG out in the glorious, stable weather we’ve enjoyed these past couple of days. Looks freshly detailed and in showroom nick. At circa $410k, would you consider one over its competition? Kudos to @kadirsoylevi for the spot in Thomastown y… ift.tt/33Qw1kH

The Ferrari 488 Pista is certainly in no shortage of width: sitting at 1975mm from side to side, it probably makes for a tricky reverse-parallel park on Chapel Street. But who are we kidding; no-one judges a Prancing Horse on its ability to go backwards.… ift.tt/2y84Vtz

A pair of all-wheel-drive monsters, in the form of the Porsche 911 Turbo S and the Lamborgini Aventador S. The 'S' designation for the pair represents an increase in power and overall performance over their non-'S' counterparts. For the Porsche, it's a 3… ift.tt/2UA8uQz

Our fist feature of BMW's new M8 Competition, spotted in Hawthorn the other day. Its 4.4L twin-turbo V8 puts 460kW of power to all four wheels via an eight-speed box. All for the princely sum of $390k. Reckon it's a good package? Great spot, @natetaleb! ift.tt/2xdNGGJ

The Bentley Continental has always stood for understated sophistication, and the newest iteration is no exception; particularly in grey with the deletion of all chrome. If you head to the Continental configurator, you’ll see 13 different shades of greys/… ift.tt/2Uqosg3

How’s this for some midweek spotting goodness, an Enzo Ferrari spotted in Burnley yesterday morning. The Enzo, unofficially dubbed the F60 (following the F40 and F50), was offered to just 399 of Ferrari’s best clients to buy between 2002 and 2004. This … ift.tt/3a0XIcS

It was this weekend a year ago that we got to drive this gorgeous range of Porsche 911s down at Philip Island, shod with the grippiest sets of @michelin Pilot Sports one would like. Now, the same group of cars (albeit with the new 992 which, regrettably,… ift.tt/2TPRqH8

It’s always a delight for us to post a car for the first time, and this blue Ferrari 488 Pista is no exception. Spotted on the back of a truck during the week, it’s the latest addition to a strong cohort of Pistas in Melbourne. Thanks for the photo, @z… ift.tt/2TLL77x

A breathtaking Ferrari 812 Superfast in Mornington earlier in the week. As we head into the biggest spotting weekend on the calendar, what are you hoping to see out? Thanks for the pic, @maxbranc! ift.tt/3cLWTXb

We’re celebrating our seventh birthday today with this double-spot at Chadstone comprising two of Lamborghini's finest. On the left is the Aventador SVJ, and on the right, the Urus. Both are damn fast, but only one can comfortably carry six full packets … ift.tt/3cLEgT3

You’ll recall the gracious McLaren GT we posted cruising down the Eastern during the week. Now, here we have (coincidentally, also blue) a 570GT - the car which we suggested poses a problem for the GT. Check out that post for the details, but for an extr… ift.tt/2TLrdbu

An ultra clean Porsche 911 GT3 (997.1) spotted enjoying some sunshine in Surrey Hills recently. Whilst it may have have been significantly surpassed in technology since 2006, it has certainly aged well; not least of which is that sleek wing which looks a… ift.tt/3aC8cza

A raucous Lamborghini Huracán Performante spotted in Cowes on Phillip Island this morning. It’s been spotted about the cafes and also at the track for the annual historic racing ‘Festival of Motor Sport’ held this weekend. Thoughts on its matte orange ‘A… ift.tt/3aDubG1

An elusive Ferrari 488 Pista spotted in Richmond recently with license plates translating from Italian to ‘race’. If you want a closer look, we reckon you might be in luck if you're at the Ferrari concourse at Xavier College tomorrow morning. Great spot,… ift.tt/2uFD2rr

A little over the top for some, the Lamborghini Huracán Performante sure grabs your attention. Nice spot on Chapel Street, @clarkey029! ift.tt/32uhYkd

You’re looking at the business end of a PTS Acid Green Porsche 911 GT2 RS spotted in Richmond stalking a Bamboo Green (not PTS, unfortunately) Renault Trafic on Monday. The GT2 RS (991.2) is the fastest 911 ever built, made even faster with the hardcore … ift.tt/2TkGq34

Gotta love a bargain! Thanks for this Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4 spot in Preston tonight, Liam Christodoulou. ift.tt/2VlGke8

A sophisticated 1960s Ferrari 250 GTE 2+2, spotted in Toorak on Saturday. The GTE is certainly one of the lesser-known members of the 250 model range, falling somewhat in the shadows of the legendary GTO and California Spyder. It was Ferrari’s first four… ift.tt/2w5rKNi

Melbourne’s newest Ferrari 488 Pista (a Spider, no less) getting a proper rinsing along Eastlink yesterday, after being delivered only last week. The Pista Spider is Ferrari’s 50th open-top model, and simultaneously represents Ferrari’s ‘best ever open-… ift.tt/2HQaaj8

Nothing like an iconic St Kilda sunset to ease the end of the weekend... Ferrari F40, sent in anonymously last week. ift.tt/2uYYMyM
