3rd wettest month on record in Cleveland Ohio, dangit. Hopefully the rest of the summer will be a bit drier... Some of these are from past days, Japanese sports car set first (you know I love these cars!)

Unsure if those for here but I'll leave them here for now.

My mom spotted it but I was quick to see it. Missed a blue California though. This was my first wild one in Michigan.
Triumph

Don't know if these were cars for sale or customer cars at the Bentley dealer

Gallardo spyder

Bentley

Birmingham spots

My second wild Aston plus it's another DB9 a bus was coming so that was the only pic I could get.

My first wild 4c launch edition

And a 911 targa

 

[Monatsende]

I didn`t want to start an "Erlkönig" thread (because these are out quite a bit already, I guess).

So I put them here. And a Ferrari F12 Berlinetta at the end...

BMW 7 series (maybe the long version?)

BMW X6

Ferrari F12 Berlinetta (in trouble).

 

[jeffgoddin]

wait, Erlkonig as in the famous poem by Goethe? the one where the kid dies at the end?

 

[Wiegert]

One of the perks of having a French car specialist across from where you work.

Well, yes. In Germany we call camouflaged test mules "Erlkönig". Don´t ask me why...

 

[jeffgoddin]

Sean, that was epic!

And for anybody who doesn't understand why Erlkonig is an odd name for a test mule, it translates to "Elf King"

And the weather looks spotless through Monday!!!!! Got a few tonight, and a few previous photos to share

Actually this was this morning on the way to work, still cloudy

Don't know what you do to attract them, but I don't see nearly as many interesting cars around here as you do. I did get to see a nice Ford GT by the classic car garage on the way to work every day for a few months.

Went to look at a car and saw this mint AE92 Corolla GTS! Guy didn't even acknowledge my MR2. Jerk

Car in question, posting because mariner blue is best blue

JDM supercharged MR2, which is for sale for too much if anybody wants it

And for fun, it was Supra Thursday at work today!

Then later this guy saw and stopped by

Gotta love the old supras 👍

Gotta love the old supras 👍

Yup! Man are they nice to drive, heavy (the MK3 anyway though the 2 isn't exactly a lightweight), but still fantastic.

Are you a Toyota guy?

 

[Dagger311]

Are you a Toyota guy?

He's owned a MkIII Supra (Not sure if he still has it), owns a first gen 4Runner, and an MR2 project car. Had a Celica, too.

 

[RandomCarGuy17]

Mk3 Supra? Uh, I think you mean the Mk.2 Supra.

 

[Dagger311]

Yeah

Don't post while half asleep, kids.

 

[ilikewaffles11]

To say that'd be an understatement.

Like @RandomCarGuy17 said, my Supra is a MK2. Which I still have but I'm looking for something else, maybe a 4th gen Celica GTS if I can find one. If not, Miata.

 

[jeffgoddin]

Miata is on my top 10 list of best cars ever

 

[RandomCarGuy17]

To say that'd be an understatement.

I actually thought of saying this.

Huh, looking for another car already eh. Oh, wouldn't it be amazing if you could find a ST165 Celica Alltrac?!

 

[ilikewaffles11]

Miata is on my top 10 list of best cars ever

One of my favorite cars ever, soooooooo much fun to drive. I'm definitely gonna own one at some point soon.

I actually thought of saying this.

There's so many cars I want and so little time/money.

I would LOVE an ST165 Alltrac but good luck finding one... And I've driven an ST185 Alltrac and honestly... It's kinda of a major letdown. Cool as hell, but not that great to drive. Though I like the 165s more so maybe I could look past that if that one is about the same. Would still buy one though.

 

[RandomCarGuy17]

Ah, I think I can understand you.

Though I like the 165s more so maybe I could look past that if that one is about the same. Would still buy one though.

Oh, okay then. Well, I guess stick with the Celica GT-S or Miata then.

Though, I still personally want to try an Alltrac or GT-Four. There's a lot of cars out there that I want to try out and explore. Though, that's something for me to wait for later on.
