Thanks. All of the photos come off the camera at almost the same incline because my camera is infront of my chest with the strap over my shoulder, so I tilt 'em a little back to normal. I've also been trying out shooting under my left arm to get something other than the same angle I've been posting.

I'm hoping that Cougar just has the rears for street driving.

I think the pic of the Murcielago that had "no lip" was actually wearing the black-lipped wheels.

The blue on that Murcielago is pretty nasty and so are the yellow-lipped rims.

I saw a C6 Z06 and a 40th Anniversary Mustang in Estes Park, and a bunch of classic Americans in very nice condition in Loveland (including a SubLime Barracuda and a Bel Air), plus a new Saleen 'Stang. I think a Porsche 365 whizzed past me in the mountains. No pics though

From the past week or so.
Subaru SVX, of the 14,257 sold in the US one resides on Oakland's campus and is in surprisingly good condition.
V8 Colorado, there was a V8 badge on the fender but I'll be damned if my camera couldn't get it. The truck was wearing an M plate, GM barcode, and GM number as well.
Viper GTS in the good looking body style.
3rd generation Toyota Celica GT-S Convertiable in superb condition. My mom had a 1984 back in the day and seeing one again brought back memories. I don't think I've seen one of these in years on the road.

There are hardly any Celicas around me, old or new. There are a few around campus and I see one of the newer ones that look like a stealth bomber every so often on the road...they are typically white and being drive by some hot blonde too.

Big-ass post!
1971 Charger in a junkyard, the car was a 4-speed mini-pistol-grip car, but the entire section of the floor that contained the transmission was cut away, seem another Charger is now enjoying a 4-speed.
Turbo? Porsche.
Nice lowered 1966 Galaxie in pretty good shape, sounded nice thanks to 351 power:
This was the awesomeness, when I was practicing panning shots with my new XTI I just climber to my roof and shot whatever passed, and this made one of my days!!! I don’t even know what it was based on but it was THE fun, check out the single headlamp and train-like front, and the wing outback! You’d SO drive it. Daily.
You’d also drive this cow-painted Bug:
Incredibly rare! A Mazda RX8!!! They’ve been meaning tos ell it here for 4 years now but nothing, then I see this… maybe they’re testing this one in Mexico city, first one on the street for me.
Then, this very modified and… well, quite horrible but somewhat strangely attractive ’05 Mustang with 1970 style headlamps and general boss-302 vibe; if I had seen it upclose I would have asked the guy for a photoshoot for the mag.
Rare again, a mid-60s Alfa Spider I almost missed, had to cross the street avoiding cars to get the pic (:
Incredibly rare and REAL Porsche 356 SC, belonging to Porsche Club Mexico, of course in absoliutely pristine state; sorry for the uber-bright picture, I was playing with the DSLR and just saw it, the pic came with the exposure as it was set in the camera.
A late-40s Chavy Pick up that has been SEVERELY chopped and has some airbrushed cartoon of the truck on the tailgate
I still don’t know if this is a real Demon (it has those emblems) or a Mexican Super Bee dressed like a Demon; the car is 72 vintage and either way, its powered by a 318 inch engine with a 4-speed trans, and looks really damn mean with those wheels (I think they are Vintage Wheelworks V40s) and fat tires outback, with the black hoodscoops and hood tach; why do I doubt it is a Demon or a converted Mexican super Bee? The Demon was never sold here (:
I took my camera with me because that day I was going to wander trough several places in the city and tought “spot day!”, well, ZERO, I was two blocks from my house with the camera still in my backpack when BAM!
1971 vintage, non-turbo model with an interior that’s falling in pieces, but oh man on the outside it looks so mean. I talked with the owner a little, said he was going to send it out and fix the engine because it was having some trouble. Those wheels are freaking wide. Extremely rare car here as you can imagine.
I think I had posted this already, but bleah… Quatroporte, very uncommon here:
These cars were both outside the same shop, one is this convertible Karmann Ghia that has been under that tarp for at least two years:
Then, at it’s side, an oval-window bug! Looking really sad, too…
Of course, “they’re gonna be restored”, but I have not seen anything that points to that in the two years those have been there. Picture of both:
Mid-late-80s Toyota Supra? Dunno, first time I see one, very rare car here in Mexico, I really like how it looks:
Behind it, a pretty much dead 1966 Galaxie hardtop:
And behind the Galaxie, this 1972 Charger in pretty good shape, and in such an unusual colour; I looove to find a bunch of cars together:
1954 Chevrolet two door, very rusty but salvageable:
Old-time Talon or Eclipse? Dunno, rare car here, never sold in this place:
Gargantuan Bonneville or Catalina convertible, also rare cars anywhere but even more so here, Pontiac flew off the country in the late 60s.
Very cute 1969 (I think) Chevy Nova with real-deal Cragars; I-6 car unfortunately:
Excellent 4-door 67 coronet parts car I found in a junkyard, the car is incredibly complete and would be a pitty to part it out, but it fell in the hands of the junkyard X _ x:
Then this Apache pickup with drag-looking Weld Wheels; had a soupped up small block underhood:
Aaaaaaaaanf that’s it, gigantic indeed, I’ll post more later (:

I need one of those for my car!

I owned one of those for few years. They are a nice looking car, but really lacking in power unless they are a turbo. Wish I could tell you the exact year of the car, but I am no longer well versed in the differences of the cars from year to year. [EDIT]After looking around the internet a bit, it appears to be an '89 or '90 based on the the front of the car and the taillights.[/EDIT]
