A car spotter is a person who is typically strongly interested, in an amateur capacity, in car spotting, which is observing or photographing interesting, vintage, rare, modified, sport cars and exotic supercars on public roads, streets, garages and meets.[1] Car spotters can be found worldwide.[citation needed]

A car spotter may also log about his or her "spots" on an internet forum, such as ExoticSpotter [2] & Autogespot,[3] or various groups on Facebook. They can also be found on Instagram.

Car spotters can often be found in large, wealthy cities and areas such as London, Paris, Milan, Dubai, Geneva, Monaco, Tokyo, New York City, and Miami where exotic cars and exotic car shows are most commonly found/held.[citation needed]

Car spotters usually rely on social media to direct them to the nearest "spot".[citation needed]
