A SWARM OF JUNE BUGS (and Crickets, and Spyders, et al)
Even when that new Camry is a $70k+ brand new Lexus LS460...and yes...tragedy. Black & white, cool & crap. At least it was clear which one everyone was looking at & listening to when their light turned green...

'08'ish Cobalt SS sedan (2.4L car, back when it was an appearance package on the sedan, basically) with a big hitch & ball out back. Intriguing. Black Ford GT in traffic. Been a long time since I've seen one of these around here. Sounded great & looked so cool when he crossed in front of me. Dad's mysterious project in his tent garage out back. Been around for a year now, but I still know very little about it or look at it. He had the door half open so I snapped a shot of current status, finally. '68 Dodge Coronet 440, I think...

Nice. Don't even like those, but a good sign & move she got another
-
Should I get one of these for my Cobalt?
Yes. It would SO balance out the sedan shape. Side splash graphic, too, also so fitting

Brand new silver 2011 Toyota Avalon parked at a Bob Evans. Woof. So antique, but with curvy new eyebrows up front and lower side sills. Oh what change.

Cars that are going missing
I haven't seen a 1st gen Neon in a long time either...hmm...

The worse part is in the commercials they show a black Sierra with GM accessory chrome 20/22" wheels and make it legitimately sound like that's part of the deal, or at least used to. Another dealer has one as such and made their own commercial showing it, but again, the accessory wheels are yet another couple grand on top...stupid.

Yeah...I never understood it in the first place. The local GMC marketing commercial "chrome...lots of chrome...at your local Delmarva GMC dealers" play again & again. Finally seeing it, eh, fine if you wanted all those accessory chunks anyway and don't mind Delmarva plastered on it.

Last gen Lexus IS Sportback...rare bird, but cool bird, little RWD hatch wonder. '06 Denali pickup on the used lot, with a flat tire. "Delmarva Pro Sport" edition '10 Sierra(s). The local GMC commercials have been advertising this package at all the dealers, but I never saw until today the badges actually say "Delmarva..." on them. Okay then.

'03 Quadrasteer Silverado with some 7+ year fading & discoloration, out shopping this week. Very odd around there...very...

Mother May I?
Went shopping. All new stuff, but when dealer hopping, that's to be expected. '10 Laser Blue Silverado with chrome gear. Saw a fresh '10 Denali XL in the same shade, recently finally showing up. Kinda pops. Twin to my truck, but a '10 and new Sheer Silver. SIM '10 Camaro SS with a custom grille covering the entire front, lights included, on the new lot. White Diamond '10 Avalanche LTZ & a Taupe Gray '10 Avalanche Z71 2wd--I originally test drove the latter, before buying my '09. And one oldie, a maroon '91 Custom Cruiser in really nice shape from a distance, at a little house/lot.

Few pics from todays fun!
Awesome trip!

Dark brown '08 Lacrosse Super. This was the longest running old leftover at the local GM dealer, just kept getting moved around & around, and was there through the sale/name change of the dealer, getting a new sticker. Finally after 2+ years, an older lady (I think) locally bought it finally. Only Super I've ever seen in person, and still do.

Holiday Weekend?
Lots. Amidst some quick weekend shopping, going truck shopping (haven't been to a dealer in a while...need to), finding a job as a salesperson (seriously), another trip somewhere with a friend, BBQ at the house with random people, and whatever else, just tomorrow. Sunday should be finally wash the Av day after 2+ weeks of gunk & other chores. Monday...well...like a Monday, but no work. Had things been more settled all around, it'd be a good weekend for a western PA family trek, but too much right now. The beach traffic has begun, officially today, in 'ye ole Delaware. Summer is here, it seems.

Opal White '10 Lacrosse CXS with tinted windows & the 19" wheels in traffic. Buick sedan or not, every time I see one of these, it's so picture worthy. Just stunning, and in today's sun, the colors and trim of this one, and the ugly traffic around it, was really getting attention.

That's IBM, Imperial Blue Metallic. No Black Granite offered on the 'Maro, only pure Black.

bought a new camaro
Awesome. Our 2LT RS is great. Not the easiest or most comfortable for me after my Avalanche, but holy crap, LOVE the DI 3.6L and 6-spd...it's a screaming banshee that MOVES. Add in the lighter front end & more balanced car, it's the best combo. Made me wish my truck had any similar verve and sound after...or that a G8 ever existed here with the same powertrain... The LS is a great choice, especially because of the cloth, cool "base" wheels and lowest price, but no difference in the guts.
-
Mother May I?
Yes! Finally! I saw a Carbon Black/Cashmere '10 Lacrosse CXL with the chromies today...these things get me every time. What a looker on the road, especially in these colors. Made the new Benz next to it at the light look cheap.

All gone :(
I miss my G8. The weekend had me looking up used GXP's. But I'm so fickle, honestly I should rent for extended periods let alone lease Miss things about all my past vehicles. I've had so many in 2 years, it's kind of more astonishing I even remember them. Drove the Camaro to work last week & they were about to commit me. Ah, the days. Some you miss, some you forget, but things unique to all. Even the minivans.

College for Creative Studies in Detroit, Mi.
Same sentiments as everyone else so far. One of the top places for getting into this field. Cost, credentials to get in, and so forth are the big steps, like any college.

All gone :(
Wow... ...and I was having similar personal sentiments just looking at my old G8 pictures. Purty parade. Now that I moved to the left end of that row, all Av, I want a Kappa... So, check. What does everyone in that picture have now?
