Man, that is quite a few cars at one time....

[AAS]

Gray G8, looked really good.

More and more Malibus, and a good number of new (dealer plate) Outlooks.

[Brougham-Holiday]

In New Haven today I saw a nice red 90's Cutlass Supreme Convert with a black top.

[Lamar]

Chevy HHR Panel Van in bright red. Talk about a hot delivery vehicle... I bet we'll see more HHR Panel Vans out in the times ahead.

[RBB]

Got new tires on the 6, and while they were being put on, walked over to the local Bentley/Rolls Royce/Mazerati/Lamborghini dealer and snapped a few crappy cell phone pics. They just happened to have a Veryon sitting outside a service bay:

Man, the Quattroporte is still a looker after all these years...

Very cool pics....

[vonVeezelsnider]

Man that WRX REALLY looks like it doesn't belong.

[pow]

New SL... which isn't as ugly as I thought it'd be.

[Intrepidation]

Another Viper GTS, this one was a deep, deep purple.

[RBB]

Man that WRX REALLY looks like it doesn't belong.

That's why I took that one - thought it was funny.

"One of these things is not like the other..."

[G_Man72]

Must be a winter "beater"

[Satty]

Since you're looking for some hot fun in the sun, I'll throw out this spotting:

1st gen Expedition, going 70 down the highway, with smoke billowing out from under the hood.

[ocnblu]

Yikes, the Metaphor Edition...

[vonVeezelsnider]

Hahaha Classic.

[NOS2006]

Finally got a couple pics of the 128 that's been around the school:

[capriceman]

80's diesel riviera

Allante with the top down.

[Blake Noble]

Finally got a couple pics of the 128 that's been around the school:

Ooh! A diesel BMW!

Please tell me that it has a manual.

[loki]

Saw a ~70's? mercedes diesel van.... kinda looked like the ones you seen tons of people piling on in other countries, but silver and not really that bad of shape. sorry, didn't have my camera.

[NOS2006]

I actually think that it is a manual, YJ... Could be wrong though.

[Blake Noble]

If it is, it is indeed a small car from heaven.

I have a thing for diesel BMWs, what can I say. I would love to own one if I could find one in the States.

[ocnblu]

That 1 diesel is quite the cheeky little monkey.

[§carlet §wordfish]

White 1975 Oldsmobile Ninety-Eight coupe

[Satty]

A white Smart at a red light, the driver must have gunned it, cause he blew the doors off the grand Am in the next lane.

[Robert Hall]

Saw a sight today that will be probably more common with the gas prices as they are--- a couple streets over someone has a late model Dodge Ram crew cab 4x4 lifted on monster tires w/ chrome wheels for sale in their driveway marked $21k. It's going to be pretty hard to sell a POS like that these days.

[Oracle of Delphi]

A 1919 Stanley Steamer, this is the 2nd time in a year I saw this car, someone must own it near where I live, well at least it doesn't need gasoline. Sorry for the poor pic quality, blame my cellphone.

[Paolino]

I went to dinner on Friday night in the Hamptons and saw a few Rolls and Maseratis.

[AAS]

I didn't see any of the cars, but I did drive by the GM Doraville assembly plant!

[Blake Noble]

A 1972 Oldsmobile 98 sedan. What a beast!

[NOS2006]

Saw a Quattroporte and a Ferrari Testarossa last week.

[caddycruiser]

New SL... which isn't as ugly as I thought it'd be.

Me too, right by home yesterday. But I really liked it, more so than the older look actually...comes off crisper and more modern. For a driver, which I think this one clearly was, makes me jealous....well, of everything but the gas bill :AH-HA_wink:

[Robert Hall]

Saw a new SL also the other day, dark gray...looked great. Saw a gray Maserati GranTurismo today..beautiful car. Saw a blue Smart FourTwo also.

[MyerShift]

Couple of Saturn Auras

New Malibus

Lots of new Jettas

smart fortwo

old Hyundai Excel hatch in d/t at McD's blowing out blue oil smoke!

[gm4life]

Saw my first Smart in red/silver with 50 mpg writen on the window huge. With a window sticker... Also saw a 2008 Sierra SLT Crew Cab Z71 Black on Black at a construction site mud'n it was pretty sweet.

[§carlet §wordfish]

Black Pontiac G8 GT, first one I've seen on the road.

[pow]

Rover SD1... I never knew they were sold here.

[Robert Hall]

Rover SD1... I never knew they were sold here.

Yes, in 1980, IIRC as the Rover 3500...had four round headlights for the NA market. I haven't seen one since about 1981.

[gm4life]

Mazdaspeed6 driven by some cute blonde, she was pretty speedy and good at driving stick actually.

[Robert Hall]

I happened to look up and watch the traffic out my office window just as a sharp white '75/76 Coupe de Ville breezed by on the 101, between a Prius and a 2nd gen Scion XB...

[crash]

2 Porche 911 turbo, and a Cayman S driving together on the freeway. An Auston Martin vintage, a Vette Z06, and a Ferrari F430 driving around town.

[Robert Hall]

Saw an exceptionally clean and shiny silver blue '82 LeSabre 4dr tonight..haven't seen one like that in ages.

[vonVeezelsnider]

1963 Imperial LeBaron in Black. Daily Driver. :wub:

[RBB]

Spotted this safe looking setup while stuck in traffic on the way home:

-RBB

[Lamar]

Maybach, all black. First one I'd seen anywhere near Baltimore. I didn't catch if it was the 57 or 62.

Also had to look close to make sure it wasn't an S-Class...

[DetroitNut90]

I saw a purple Grand Prix GXP in lower Sussex County, DE. On vacation, PCS?

Fittingly, near that GXP was a black G8 GT. And not too much further down Coastal Highway was a red V6, both retail models. Such fantastic-looking sedans.

Also, there was what looked like someone took a '64 Ford Galaxie sedan and turned it into a convertable by the Mobil on 85th Street in Ocean City. It wasn't in the best of shape.

To round everything out, there was a red-over-white 1959 Ford Country Squire for sale in Dagsboro, DE. A silvery Quattroporte was sighted not too much later.

[ocnblu]

Hey Nut, speaking of the Galaxie, I saw a '73 Cutlass four door with the roof chopped off parked next to a gas station in Ocean City (I think it was at the Wine Rack/Exxon station) when I was down there. Poor thing sat out overnight in a thunderstorm. It had a "For Sale" sign on it.

[Intrepidation]

This week...

a gray F430 spyder

red Viper R/T 10

a lot of new Malibus

a LOT of new Jounreys. Has anyone else been seeing them? I've seen at least 10 so far this week, from base models to R/Ts....they seem to be selling very well around here.
