It came to America, I am super convinced it will show up as a Holden.
Anyways, my spot from today.

I had absolutely no idea how big Lancia actually is. I spotted so many cars that I had never heard of, it seems they also make other types of vehicles.

Here are 5 from the area I'm staying in on Holiday, we move down to the Amalfi Coast tomorrow :D

An Edmond spot. Neat!

Speaking of Oklahoma, there is a red Mercedes-Benz SLS running about that I have seen twice now. I have seen the Mercedes after Game 3 of the OKC-Dallas series just outside the Oklahoma City Arena and I saw it last week on Robertson in Norman. Both times I was completely unprepared to have my phone ready for pictures. Hopefully, I will get a chance to snap a few pictures.
 
Nice pics guys, but a reminder to some posters on the previous page that this isnt the Imports thread and again, we aren't hear to hear what you saw, we want to see it.

Pics or didnt happen ;)
 
Start today with a pull in to an auto body shop that had a trio of interesting cars on the lawn in front of it. Some awesome deconstructed old Vettes, an Austin, and I don't know what were in the garage bays but I was shooed away and doors were closed before I got any shots. Don't know if these were for sale or advertising or what, and I'm not sure what they are, but here you go:

old 911...? pulled up at the farm stand next door before I pulled away

still not yet into town (making restauant deliveries) I spotted something I had to turn around for, and parked in the gas station I was turning around in was this nice old 944 turbo (?)

And this '50 chevy deluxe was what I was turning around for. Decided to deliberately include the IS300 in the shot since it looked like a Tezza to me and I like Tezzas!

finally in town, made my deliveries, action shot fail side view:

Rear view better, BIG car, no idea:

and then, FINALLY, after one maybe night sighting, then another last week going the other way I'm 99% sure, my first confirmed Ferrari! 575M Maranello, behold!

of course, nothing else today, or even this week, is going to get me as excited as that bucking bronco, but I found this simple old Audi Quattro, oddly, captivating enough to snap a shot:

to my surprise, however, I suddenly had my Ferrari amazement dulled by this cute little, I don't know, motor bicycle? motorcycle? I know nothing about Puch, but this was a poetic image, with the period helmet positioned next to the front wheel, just sublime:

and then, hrmmm... hate Jags in general, but thought this XJL was rather unusual, a Jag sedan, with kind of nice lines:

xjlj.jpg


oof, on my way back, maybe this is better suited to the questionable mods thread, but a (late 90's?) mustang GT with body mods and way high spoiler:

Then finally, this bad boy, 440 Magnum... Challenger?

440magnum.jpg


ah, another day of farming!
 
haha, ok Goddin. From top to bottom:

57 Chevy Bel Air... with radiused rear wheelwells to make room for the fat tires. I like.

MG-F I think, dunno the year, MGs are pretty foreign to me.

1967-69 Barracuda with a very odd, non-correct-for-it hood tach setup (originally found in Duster Twisters and Demons in 1970-1972, as well as mexican Super Bees) and an odd hood scoop, but I really likie the bive of the car in general, very street-freakish.

You managed to get enough of the car in your "side-shot fail" to see a 1937 Cadillac series 60, very rare car. The long headlamps are unmistakable.

Last one is a 1973 Dodge Charger; the 440 Magnum, if one indeed lives under the hood, is not original to the car.
 
Thanks for the ID's! Still trying to learn about what I'm seeing. Very interesting about the '37 Chevy Series 60. It was a sedan, again, very large car. Loved the whitewalls.
 
Dude, Cadillac, not Chevy, Cadillac!

This would be a 37 Chevy:

Yes, I know they are similar, but that was the charm opf the Chev, Cadillac looks for a quarter of a price.
 
To some, seeing a Vauxhall Insignia is nothing special. However, the brand doesn't operate here in Australia, so seeing a silver example in the university car-park today tells me they're actually serious about considering to bring it down under.

The Opel brand is branching to Australia and they're initially going to be bringing the new Astra and the Insignia.

Why don't they sell it as a Holden as they always do. Cause we already have the austra.

From what I know, the Insignia will be sold under the Holden brand and Europe's Astra will be replacing the current one in the Holden line-up.
