Well I'll be damned...
I think I've seen 10 and I'm sure there is a guy down the street from me that owns one. He has one of those new F-150's with a Lincoln grill on it as well. Guess the guy works for Ford and really likes pointless trucks.

I only ever saw one on hand at the biggest Lincoln dealer in town, one at the auto show, and one on the road. They were just so pointless, just a quick rush to cash-in on the "success" of the Escalade EXT, which by comparison is actually capable as a truck if you desire it to be. The new Lincoln Mark LT should suffer the same fate, but I continually doubt that FoMoCo will ever kill it because it was on an episode of American Chopper.

Great spot - though I'd have rather seen a Zagato! Get on it, Harry!
I'm trying! I'm trying!
I'd rather have seen the Zagato, too. The Aston Zagato's (DB4 & DB7) are the only Zagato models I actually like.Oh, I understand how rare it is. It's such an oddball concept: the luxury pickup. It sort of sells now (Ridgeline, Mark LT, Escalade EXT), but the Blackwood probably shocked people too much when it was new. And the name certainly did it no favors. I think some people may be overestimating it's popularity since it's only available in the one color: black.

I think Blackwood is a pretty cool name, in all honesty. Unfortunately, like all other Luxury SUV's/SUT's, it's useless. Hence, it is and will be destined to sell poorly.
But FoMoCo won't kill it. That would mean killing one of its' top-of-the-line names.

[Idea]
How hard would it be to create a screensaver involving the best say, 50-100 spots from this thread? if anyone uses the topgear one I was thinking similar to that. Not like a slideshow, but more images revealing themselves then changing to other pictures etc.
[/idea]
Anyone reckon we could do it? (or would we need lots of ££$$?)

The rainbow has to at least triple the rareness of that picture.
I don't know if it's Lotus's own press photos of the V8, or the colour, but it seems so much in its element with the dark shades from the rain. Did you crop that picture from the original?
It also reminded me of this shot (I didn't take it):
Oh, how Lotus brightens even the darkest day.
I know exactly what you mean and though my photo is of the entire car side-on I much prefer the New Jersey one you posted. Great shot.
No, the picture was altered in no way from the original except the addition of my name in the corner and being resized. I don't crop my images with rare exceptions.

While in Central London the other day, just outside Selfridges:
My sister didn't want to be near me taking a pic of cars so she walked off
. Never noticed they used those aerodynamic wipers we sometimes put on some cars (could be replacements) - he'll have to dig deep to pay for the parking ticket I expect....
More funny was the fact that two people actually stopped to take a picture of my car! I had to check around to see I wasn't missing some Lambo or Ferrari, was pretty weird. Makes me feel like posing around in London one day 💡
