Yup.

First I've seen a 4S convertible


and also on this cold, rainy day, just before sunset


from a couple nights ago
 
^Awesome spot! I love seeing cars that you don't get here.


The main reason I loved the Cayman Islands so much. Not the weather, not the beaches, it was all the cars you never see at home.
 
00Familyman is not very good at spying:

Helping a friend replace the head gasket on his Cavalier at his grandparents' house... which is owned by his uncle, who keeps a couple of his cars there. A '92 convertible, and a '68 SS with a 427.

Not the best spot of the year but still nice to see one





Buick Retta sorry for my finger on the bottom pic. Haven't seen many of these. Saw it when I was getting lunch at SubWay.
 
Got my car inspected, turns out the rear right was done. Never inspect tires at the sides :lol:
When I parked, saw this. 1st time in a while I saw a supra on the road

So sweet spots guys. 👍
Here is what I have for now...

Mustang GT ('09 or earlier), having no plates because it's just about to be registered - it was near a traffic police building.

GAZ 21 Volga "Black Lightning" in awesome condition. Anyone watched that movie? :)

Another 21 Volga, this one is 1964 as the selling advert says. Not as great condition as the previous one, but still nice too.

I always thought airbrushed scoops and body kits were something people only did in Forza...

I don't know how to feel about that being a thing people really do.
 
Sorry I didn't post this before, but I have been so tired that I haven't had time to post this.


Other day at the grocery store I got to see this beautiful Stingray.

I took pictures of the outside and waited till the guy who owns it to come out to see if he wouldn't mind talking to me about it.

Well he told me he has never driven it in snow (of course why would you). The mileage on the odometer is original for the body and chassis, which is at 19,999 However the engine which has been swapped with a 350 GM create motor, only has 5,000 miles on it.

It was in amazing shape. All original (besides the engine), not restored. Actually for sale for 14,900 (FIRM).

Also, today I was driving around town and I got to see four brand new C7 Corvette's.

I only got to get pictures of two of them though, not my best pictures either. Sorry, rush hour. The other two were almost two lights ahead.

There was a blue, yellow, and two green (almost black) convertible versions. Not to big on the convertible versions, specially these two because they had a brown convertible top. I did follow them to see if they were going to stop. One of the guys driving the one in front of me said "we are just driving around".

14 for the Ray? That's a steal, you wouldn't find one of those in my area for less than 20.
 
We don't get B-Classes here in the States; first one I've seen in my life.

10338268224_86c24995e7_h.jpg

Yeah, you can buy those up here. I wouldn't say they're common though.

I like seeing the variety on here. Some people saying "ahh man, I only saw 2 Ferraris today," and then the next picture could be something you can't go anywhere WITHOUT seeing.

I haven't been doing much driving around lately but when I do I'll try to remember to get some pictures.
 
Did you know it was sold in Canada? If I'm not mistaken it has Canadian (Alberta) plates.

I only found that out fairly recently. I've seen X-Trails visiting from up there occasionally, the most recent being last week, actually. It was turning to far ahead to get a picture, though. :indiff:
 
I've got a few stretching back literally months, I take the photos for this thread then forget to put them here :lol:

First up is this RHD late model Shelby Mustang Super Snake. To say it's a rare sight is something of an understatement, it made a big splash at this car cruise.

Next is a Jaguar XKR I saw in the city. Photo is pretty shotty, but it's easily visible in full size pic

My knowledge of old Lancias is very sparse. All I can tell you was it was black and it was cool. Fullsize

Here's a couple cool old rockets in a parking bay. fullsize

A BMW M1 coupe...

And a Mk4 Supra which was parked right in front of it.

A GT40 (Kitcar?) i saw in Adelaide. Sounded absolutely amazing :drool: fullsize, and another pic
