I see Honda N-WGN, I approve. Simple as that

It was in downtown Hartford, parked in the lot for the Parkville Market.

EDIT: Looks specifically like a 1963 Ford Falcon.

Well, that was a fine piece of art!! IMO...

I feel like I've gone back to the 1940s...

 

[MIE1992]

I think I saw a Jaguar E-Type in Central Park just now!

 

[ScottPuss20]

The street spots are back!

Just saw this at my mate's unit. 😍

Dunno why this Audi R8 doesn’t have the badge but it’s still neat.

What a gorgeous thing... this has to be one of the best car designs ever.
I guess that's not the 1st gen, as the grill is different, still a beauty though.

Probably been wrapped...

@MIE1992 I've often seen cars with full wraps where they've decided to not put all the badges back on (I get this can be done on most cars, but it's more common the major badges to be removed if it's a full body wrap). Does that make sense?

nah it should be the 3rd series going by the grill and the missing covers for the headlamps. Most beautiful is still the Series 1 for me

When it was released it was described as the most beautiful car ever made, by a certain Italian called Mr E. Ferrari.

On the way to a friend's baby's 1st birthday party, was surprised by this S8. Not sure how rare they really are, but I can't remember seeing one recently.

Edit: And for fun, here's a Ford Falcon Ranchero I saw earlier this month:

Well, I didn’t see this today but since we are talking Jaguar E-Type I wanted to share this beauty I had at my work a couple of years ago:

This was a Series 1.5 (don’t remember if it was a ’67 or ’68 but 1.5 was only one year) so it mostly got the same exterior as a Series 1 I believe, but with some of the interior from Series 2.

Everything with that car was just so perfect. It was just perfectly restored with some minor patina left that just made the car so much better and with the soul and character intact. Everything was gorgeous, and the engine compartment was probably the most beautiful and flawless I have ever seen.

A real showstopper. Superb car and today when I think of this car I regret not buying it myself, despite whatever economic hardships that maybe would have brought…

Being a member of a Jaaaaaag club, I get to see dozens of these at events like this one in the summer.

 

[VinylRichie]

I saw a E-Type Lightweight in Salzburg some weeks ago at a Jaguar dealer, but as these are so rare and valuable, my guess is that it’s just a replica or continuation or something.

 

[GT_Tuga]

@Korvregn that's the one I like the most, with that grill and especially with the hardtop looks absolutely perfect, I'm sure you would need to sell a kidney and cut your right arm to be able to buy it, at the very least haha

How lucky you are... man I can only imagine how cool it is to be behind the wheel of one of those with such a HUGE long hood/bonnet in front of you...

Here's my contribution to this subject:

I've seen this one at a car show actually, love the color!

While we seem to be on an E-type vibe, here's one I saw at Beaulieu National Motor Museum (in the car park, not in the museum!) a few weeks back...

That's my lad checking it out. Getting him interested from early on!

Wow, that is unbelievable, I've never seen one of those in person before. Not in my lifetime.

OMG! Look, a cybertruck! So rare.

Rare sight indeed, here's one I've seen recently at a car show:

The size of the windscreen wiper is just ridiculous 🤣🤣
There were a whole lot of fuzz around this Cybertruck that day, as seeing one here in Europe is probably even harder than the USA...

Last couple of spots of the year saw a few hypercars and did a trip to Columbus for their cars and coffee closer.
