RX-7, Ok I know it looks a little questionable but I'm going to give him the benefit of the doubt that he's still working on it. I mean the front has some gaps, but the back isn't too bad.

I was in New Orleans working all week last week and these two were sitting walking distance from my hotel.

Kinda boring paint on this Scud. Doesn't make it any less awesome, though. lol

Don't see these often.

Go to Melbourne in Australia for a holiday, I did. I saw 350's tuned like that every day. Nice spot though.

Nissan 350Z Nismo

These are becoming increasingly common. I guess Nissan's trying to get rid of them since they were overpriced when new. All that for a non-aerodynamic bodykit and a slightly better suspension? I'd pass, too.

LOL I just saw this post. Same car same parking spot. Same day? Ah good ole Greenwich...
 
The red one is a 1965 Dodge Coronet.

Thanks; fixed!


It's a Bristol 405 👍

Thanks! Fixed, again!


I'd say the 9-3 was just a regular Aero, but even then the wheels are wrong I think. It looks more like a regular 9-3 with a bodykit, or perhaps an Aero with some winter wheels/tyres on it. The Viggen was only ever produced as a "coupe" and convertible, as far as I'm aware.

That's what I figured, but it turns out that it was available as a 4-door after all. I'm not saying this was definitely one of them, but the brakes weren't exactly staggeringly large, so base 9-3 wheels could certainly be used. Now why they would be used is another matter....

He's been there all week! There's a few others in the area, one red, one dark gray. If I'm in the area, I'll see one of them about every 4-5 days.


They made an M version of that giants piece of garbage?

They sure did.... ;)


Audi S4 2010

I think Audi is trying to wag the dog with this one. While the S4/RS4 is not exactly a bad car, it is (or was) the oldest of the three German sports sedans and the least sporty (according to most). It seems that they want to downsize just at the right time while losing none of the sporting character they only recently gained. I think it's the right thing, but I'm not sure about supercharging, what with all their experience with turbocharging over the last 30 years.

I don't know, it says something that an S4 beat out a BMW in Car and Driver's recent comparison test! :lol:

I'm liking that Nissan. I've decided that I'm going to Hong Kong, Michigan is nice but WOW there's some cool cars all over out there.
 
Yes it's a double post but there good cars,

Well I just saw this 911 so I took a picture

But then here's the good ones

BMW 550i GT

HONDA CROSSTOUR YEA!!! :dopey:, honestly though it's still not that bad to me.

Audi S3 8P, maybe

I saw a 5-series GT a couple of weeks ago. Looked exactly like an X6 on roller-skate sized wheels.
 
That GT is so ungainly. Almost, dare I say it... Aztek-like.

Purely from a style standpoint, I think the X6 looks marvelous, like a Dakar rally fighter. Practically, it's kind of stupid. This thing, however, is just so boxed up. The wheel proportions to the body and that wicked-nasty 5" band where the marquing goes is just revolting. Way to blow it. Hopefully it gets phased out sooner with the updated F10 riding right up behind it.
 
Look like the Car & Driver office, so they are probably testing them.

Shhhh. :sly:

How come everytime people think a car is ugly, I like it? There a lot better looking BMWs out there, but this one isn't that bad. It just looks different and stands out.

Yep. Somehow, BMW have managed to make a car even uglier than the X6. That Crosstour in the other pic looks like a masterpiece in comparison.

I've not posted anything in here for a while as I lost my card reader, but I only have a couple of things to show for it anyway:

A Mitsubishi i parked in the car park next to DM at work. Don't see many of these things:

And a smart, but as you can see, not just any old smart. It appears our local council have installed some charging points and have bought/are leasing some electric smarts to go with them:
