Autogespot.com updated - hurray!

My radar noticed very recently quite a few Ferrari 400/412 postings on autogespot.com. Previously these were always removed and somehow the 365GT4 2+2 was allowed. Occasionly in the past I have e posted a few of these spots on my blog. But mostly posted these in the Facebook group if I was capable to reveal the removed photo's from Google cache. 

Personally I always liked these spots in the wild when people are actually use and drive them. But now these 400/412 photo's are meeting their acceptance criteria. Cool!

So now you can look up them up yourself easily. The options are:

400 Automatic
400 Convertible
400i 
400i Automatic
412

Meaning the 400 manual is missing, perhaps they are not aware of this since the 400 is always associated being an automatic. Oh well. 

This example is posted today but is actually a photo from two years ago:


As the spotter mentioned:

Well I just heard that the Ferrari 400i/412 is now "back on the menu" of cars that are acceptable to post on Autogespot. In celebration, here is a Ferrari 400i Automatic that I spotted while getting gas at Cumberland Farms along US-7 on 9/3/2022. The owner was really nice and was telling me everything about the car. Love the color too! To the mods on AG: I really hope you guys take other makes/models that are currently not allowed on AG and reconsider whether or not they should remain that way. As someone who has been on the website and consistently posting for the past 11 years, I would love to see more cars be added and for restrictions on what is and what isn't allowed to be loosened. These cars got banned 10+ years ago, the car scene is much different, more diverse and more welcoming than it was back in those days. I'm not saying allow Toyota Priuses or normal traffic but I mean special cars that have communities surrounding them, like older muscle cars, older M cars, older AMGs and 600 Mercedes, R32/R33 Skylines, the list goes on. I have a whole list of cars that I would love to see added as spotworthy to the site, some of which even I haven't spotted. Either way, I'm glad this car is allowed now and I hope to see more of this kind of thing happening with the website in the future.
