Traffic Spots #18: 11/2/23 - 16/2/23
Covered on 16/2/23
Disclaimer:
As the content is going to feature uncensored number plates, please email charademails@gmail.com if there is a vehicle that needs censoring/removal. All photos have been edited to blur occupants' faces if revealed in photo.
Please understand none of the photos were taken with ill intent; all were photographed by someone who likes old, sports, and ordinary cars. I hope these will act as a photographic memory of what cars were around, or what owners have driven around this time too. Happy browsing!
Due to the nature of this blog, number plates are going to be written down for easier searching. This is because tagging each post with manufacturer/model tags will severely increase tag count and clog the existing labels. I apologize and understand that this is relatively unethical, and if needed, please email me if you feel this should be rectified.
Dates Covered: 11 February - 16 February 2024

| SND7798Z Mercedes-Benz S300L |
 |
| SCE777E Toyota Mark X 2.5A |
 |
| SDJ-Plate Toyota Soluna |
Toyota Soluna! My first time seeing one in the flesh. I could not get the plate, but these are super hard to come by. The styling is, in my opinion, very reminiscent of the AE101 generation of Corolla, which does make sense considering both models had similar production years. The AE101 does look better than these though.

| SDK4538J Ford Laser 1.3G |
Lots of goodies to be seen here today. This is one of an unknown number of survivor Ford Laser's still around. The Laser name is basically gone from the Singapore market, and this car is one of very few evidences of its existence.

| SLQ3203E Mazda MX-5 2.0A (ND Generation) |
 |
| SLR72E Honda City 1.5A |
 |
| SCZ8703E Lexus GS300 |
Known as the Toyota Aristo in other markets, this generation of Lexus GS kept the 2JZ motor as its 3.0L option. While the Aristo received a turbo, the GS300 was kept naturally aspirated. There are no more registered MK4 Supra's in Singapore, so the luxury sedans of the time are the only go-to place to find the revered 2JZ motor here in Singapore.

GZ2222T Land Rover Defender 90 2.4L Puma,
SNN7297A Tesla Model 3 RWD |
At the time of writing, this is one of the first few facelift Model 3's to hit Singapore shores. Personally, I think they're a relevant visual improvement over the pre-facelift.
 |
| SMW125Z BMW 125i Coupe |
 |
| ET9003T Ferrari F355GTS |
A thing of beauty; while a Testarossa and older Ferrari models are definitely better looking, I love the F355's shape. My Instagram post about this car can be found here: Instagram

 |
| SBX6648S Honda Civic ESi 4M Sedan (EG Generation) |

| SGE5419J Honda Civic Type R 2.0M 3DR (EP3) |
Here it is again. The very last EP3 Type R on our shores. I'm hoping this car will be renewed, or has been renewed.

SGM7315U Hyundai Matrix FL A,
SJJ3696B Hyundai Matrix FL A |
One of my best photos of this year. Apart from the red Mazda in the background, everything just looks period correct. The composition, untouched grass, and most importantly, the cars. It all comes together to look like a photo taken from the 2000's.
