'68 Shelby GT 500 convertible, gold w/ black stripes, sure looked original, mint condition. Only 402 built, one just sold at BJ for $330K.

It's a rather busy design..makes the previous generations of Z4 look clean. The original Z3 is still the best looking, IMO.

They have a helmet that can do this. Of course for the Harley Guys, that wouldn't work.

No way no how anyone can possibly say that this car is good looking. Performance will be great I'm sure, but its ugly and messy as sin

It's BMW- they show concept after concept after concept and only ever put out reguritations of everything they already produce. This car is a mess of disharmonious lines, but no surprise- as BMW (production) design is pretty much asleep at the wheel.

And it's more than that- short of cancelling numerous vehicle lines, OEMs are going to have to use economic pressure to get people into smaller & smaller vehicles to swing the corporate average. I don't see 5-10% being enough to do that. 7.5% on a $34K vehicle is only $2550. Spread out over payments of 60 (or 72 or 84 or 96) months, that's nothing.

I bet if you asked those same people if they were okay with a 5-10% more expensive car they would also say they don't want that.. higher fuel economy numbers cost money.

^ So there's only a 10% split in that poll between 'for' and 'against'. Interesting.

Seems only 29% of the public agree with the proposed EPA freezing, the bulk of society thinks fuel economy standards should keep getting harder. https://www.greencarreports.com/news/1118400_fewer-than-1-in-3-new-car-shoppers-agree-with-proposed-epa-rollback-according-to-poll

I doubt it, these are restomods of vintage cars that weren't designed for airbags. Maybe modern 3-point seatbelts.

Did someone bang it into a wall head on?

I can see bits of Toyota in the design.

There is always a letdown from concept to production. Some letdowns are steeper than others. Unfortunately it does happen a lot throughout the industry.

Speaking of campers, too bad the VW California isn't sold here..pretty cool. For Asian vans, it's too bad the Toyota Vellfire and Alphard aren't sold here..pretty badazz looking..could see the Alphard as a Lexus. Way more dramatically styled than the sedate Sienna.

Not really spotting, but some car-related randomness...I've been helping my sister w/ her new old Caddy--I replaced the wipers, added washer fluid, new floor mats, and replaced some plastic trim screws under the hood (it has the black plastic panels that cover a lot of things). She's replaced the tires (w/ Falken all season tires) and had a few other things done..the biggest issue being a fuel leak. Apparently, the STS has two gas tanks..on either side of the driveshaft, ahead of the rear axle under the back seat. The auxiliary one (left side) had a leak if you filled up the tank. The shop first thought it was a ring/seal where the plastic fuel line goes into the plastic tank. Nope. After filling it up yesterday, it started puddling again last night. I took it back to the shop (my sister is working out of town) this morning, now the are sure it's auxiliary fuel pump that is leaking. I was under the car when up on the rack, pretty clean for an 11-yr old Ohio/Florida car, just surface rust on the suspension. There are a few things to do, need to replace the struts/shocks eventually, a cracked taillight lens, broken glovebox latch (got a replacement one off eBay), figure out how get the 6 disk CD player to work (seems to be jammed), etc.

Just saw a red '70s Lamborghini Jarama. I've seen maybe one other in my life at a car show. Unusual to see something like this in traffic in Parma, Ohio.. (not my photo, but just like this). One of 328 built. Also saw a really clean early 90s BMW 5 series in bright red also.

It looks like the Fiat, which is pretty disappointing. What happened to the design of the concept car? What a let down.

There's a vehicle on the market currently that runs on coal??

I was expecting GM to have released more bolt powered vehicles by now... Another 6 months and they'll have dropped the ball.

So much more exciting than the coal belching blah Bug!

Lunch consisting of one dry rice cake and a 2 inch piece of plain celery. So exciting.

So when is Chevy going to build an Equinox EV?

A abomination unto God. But you knew that.
