with wheels like this (excuse my lazy photoshop bum effort, had to photoshop them to look like what i think they were but were quite possibly not..):
 
I'll spare you all the details, but today was filled with Porsches. Not a show or dealer or anything, it was just like I saw them everywhere, the nicest one was a:

Porsche 356 Speedster. Deep navy blue with a tan coloured interior. Easily the nicest 356 I have ever seen.
 
driving home from work and what do i see creep up behind me?

Boston doesn't have that many great cars. That's the past week or so.
 
Well I just went to the NY Auto Show yesterday, so yes I saw many good cars. But outside of the show, a black Bentley Continental GT merging onto the highway.

It's wierd, I'd swear I've seen a Bentley every single day this week, or at least every other day. THen again, it's been a wierd week in general.
 
Well ive seen a lot but only managed to get a few pictures:
Benz E-500:

A fenced SL55-AMG:

^There was a crossfire on the other side that was dark blue. Wait, that gives me an 💡 Put an SRT-10 in a crossfire and see what it does!
 
Saw a really nice 645ciconvert.

I saw the "making of the BMW:design to production" and it was pretty cool. They said the convert. was going to be in the US a few months AFTER the sedan comes out

All pics 640 x 480, if you require higher resolution (up to 2032 x 1534), please just ask.

I got bored after id practiced bowling (league game tomorrow night) so i went for a drive around the motoring industrial estate at the end of the seafront.
Theres always bound to be some nice cars down there, though most of the time i see the same ones. So i spotted something i hadnt seen before, turned around and parked up. Its only when i got closer that i realised it was a brand new Civic, an 06 plate too. I looked around it and i quite like it actually :)
It has some pretty wicked lines and the front light look nice.
I saw another one later while driving on an 05 plate, but with silver wheels.

I fail to see what's so interesting about that, apart from the rims
 
Saturday - My very first Honda Fit sighting. It was gray, very nice looking car in person. I'd take white or black over gray though.

Sunday - Another "first". Smart! I don't think they are sold in Oregon. I saw it on the freeway. I wonder how safe it is.....

Today - Viper GTS-R. Red with white stripes. It looked like the ACR version. :drool:

Are you talking about the M5 and M6?

The 645Ci, btw was upgraded to the 650Ci lately.

To someone like me, that's very cool. I don't think the US even gets the hatchback :(
 
It was really sunny and hot here on Sunday and I saw a few vintages:

- 1965 Mercury Comet
- 1969 Chevrolet Camaro SS 350
- 1972 Cadillac DeVille
