Thanks Wayne, or how the Queen would say: "How very reassuring".
But what does "ubber" mean?

Maybe not, but they surely did hear youhehe

or maybe they did not see that low black car of yours and thought by only hearing your car but only seeing the Ka wow that must be a fast Ford Ka hahaha...

Btw, who took the picture? If it was you Lutz, then you`re the man. That`s what I call daring: stop at the red light, get out of the car (fully knowing that the Polizei is watching closely), take some pictues and get back...

Notice the other silver car (whatever it is), you can observe the very same behavior over and over again: they just don`t dare to drive up to the line as they`re probably afraid you could take this as a challenge - or in order to take some better pictures with their cellphone cameras.

It is a 'Germanism', at least where I am from, not derogatory in any way (or else I would not have used it).
Just out of interest, why has the registration plate been BLACKed out? After all, there can't be more than a handful of Ultimas in Deutchland. My registration is V8 GTW and I can't wait to show it off.

Ah, I see Wayne, you probably meant "über black". Btw, my registration is SB-UL 321 (sadly we can`t have your creative number plates) and no, I didn`t buy it on ebay...

You forget sometimes how totally 'out there' the Ultima design is. It looks mad when seen on it's own or with peers, but when it goes 'into the field' it just looks bonkers!!

I can't believe it hasn't been in some pop video yet.....

You`re absolutely right about that, I should`ve taken a picture when I parked my GTR (which is yellow) in a long row of ugly, boring production cars - it wasn`t only the colour that made it easy to spot...
Talking of music videos - last year I was asked to "borrow" my GTR for some background driving in a hip-hop video (bling bling), it was to be produced in the city of Hamburg by the harbour...I refused with thanks.

To me, this picture epitomizes the whole Ultima ethos. How could anyone see this car in a completely innocent situation like this and think anything other than 'What is a race car doing on the road?'. Surely this is what it is all about. Owning a tool such as this is one thing but even when you do, seeing one is still as enthralling and stimulating as hell. ULTIMA RULES!

Yeap Guys. I must approve you. It really looks as the driver took the wrong exit-lane in LeMans

To Wanye: The Plate is blacked out, as it is white....
It is blacked out, because we have some guys here in germany, that love to drive cars they don´t own. Often they spontaneously decide to take them on a trip to eastern europe where they just casually make a paint job...
So why give them a hint ?

To Sven: Cousin took a picture (and was arrested therefore ) But thus I could escape...
