Saw one of these on the road the other day.

It was grey or flat grey. I was like, "Damn, that is a huge hummer, wtf." Then I saw the rather conspicuous International Trucks grill.
 
Seen lots of cool cars of late,a corvette, a few 911s, a ferrari and something called a Dodge Explorer I think, but sadly always when i have no camera with me!
This day tho i was at a butterfly world and on the car park i spotted this VW Scirocco. I think the new ones look real funky!
Also a Fiat 500 and a BMW 3 series in same shot.

One of my brother's lacrosse teammates has a dad that daily drives one.
 
Why?

Because 'murca, F yeah

Actually, they get 8-10mpg, not so bad for a 7 ton pickup, and were aimed at two markets: commercial haulers and dump trucks and recreational haulers (large boats and horse trailers.) Also consider this is International, and so this was the smallest thing they offered. All discontinued now except the armored military version which was picked up to serve the UK (God save the Queen.)

Although I think Ashton Kutcher's falls under the category of "Because 'murca, F yeah!":lol:
 
It said GT 350, but I don't know.

Well he races boats also...

Haha, I know. I think they're badass myself. I just really wanted to use that line somewhere today...

Btw, Z car above my post is epic!
 
That Buick is the GS version, you can tell because they tried to hide the verticle bumper vents.
 
Some "Good" stuff I saw on my way to and from work today! These stuck out in a sea of Hondas and Toyotas that are typically seen on my commutes. I also saw a white Lexus IS-F which while not rare per se, is still a rarity around these parts. Unfortunately I couldn't get my phone out fast enough to snap a pic before it drove away. :nervous:

After having seen some rather interesting cars today, I felt compelled to stop at the Volkswagen of America HQ which is about 15 min from where I live. I figure all (or most) of the employees are required (or it may be just suggested) that they drive VWs or Audis since the entire parking lot consisted of one model or another from each of those manufacturers. I didn't see any new A6s though. :indiff:

A SUV convertible? :lol: That's even more pointless than Top Gear's Minivan convertible :lol:

It is a confusing design choice by Nissan. I was not sure what I was looking at until sanpanico pointed out it was a Murano convertible. Before completely believing him though, I had to verify it on Nissan's website and sure enough, it is there. :odd:
 
I think I saw a Murano 'vert today at the Nissan Headquaters here.

An Oldsmobile! Not something you see every day in Darlington, and the only one Ive seen! This eclipses any car Ive posted for coolness- darn thing barely fits in the drive!
Anyone know what year this hails from, roughly?
