December 21, 200619 yr Author Uh, a pastel pink first-gen Corvair convertible with white top and interior, fender skirts, oversized dual exhaust pipes, smooth chrome rims with baby moon hubcaps and curb feelers, driven by a graying hippie, turning into the local upholstery shop this afternoon. Wild!
December 21, 200619 yr I've been seeing more and more Quattroportes lately. 230102[/snapback] It must've been the zero percent financing and leasing they were offering earlier...I'm dead serious. I saw it a while ago on the Maserati website. Edited December 21, 200619 yr by ToniCipriani
December 22, 200619 yr I saw a black Aura by the side of the road all by itself - it really had some presence, as if it was placed ther for a photo-op. The car really looks much bigger in person. Also: couple of Nitros - kinda cool a number of Calibers - seem to be catching on. plenty of Silverados
December 23, 200619 yr A 2002 Pontiac Sunfire GT sitting by the dirt road... hmm.. wonder who's it could be?
December 23, 200619 yr 4, count `em 4 different Lincoln Aviators in the past 2 days. That's the most I've seen. Ever 2 Mercury Millians A Dodge Charger SXT (usually I see SEs or R/Ts) A Band new GMC Sierra Crew Cab...it was a sexy beast. Edited December 23, 200619 yr by Dodgefan
December 23, 200619 yr I'm not going to deny it -- if I found one of these cars pretty cheap, I'd buy it. I can humor the alien-X-Files-guppie headlights because these cars actually had decent performance. And now for a good laugh... Racing for pink slips?
December 25, 200619 yr A black Dodge Charger with red flames, rear suicide door conversion, and license plates "A SRT8+"
December 25, 200619 yr An extremely wrecked (T-boned on the passenger side) red Aztek. I didn't have the digi to take pics, or else I would have for Reg's sake.
December 28, 200619 yr One of those stupid-ass Red Bull Mini Coopers with the back cut off on a flatbed, bright yellow Nissan Xterra with New Hampshire vanity plate SHRTBUS
December 29, 200619 yr Someone in a Buick Century (1997+) tried to race me. I wasn't going to let that happen and answered back. That Century had a head start and still didn't stand a chance.
December 29, 200619 yr 1977 Ford Ranchero GT sweet! my uncle has a black 72 GT that me and him are going to fix up once i get some free time... im not entirely educated on rancheros... did the 77s still have the fishmouth grill?
December 29, 200619 yr Saw this driving home yesterday: Thought it was just a a cool old Caddy limo at first, but as I drove past, I realized it hadt three rows of seats. You can't really make it out in this photo (took it quickly while driving), but there are people in rows two and three. Look closely and you'll see a front, middle, and rear door. I've not seen something like that before... -RBB
December 30, 200619 yr Author Yeah, I think cars like this were used as airport courtesy cars. I am sure there are lots of pics of many different brands of cars done like this. Cool pic!
December 30, 200619 yr saw a f@#kING HOLDEN IN f@#kING MICHIGAN??????????????????????????????????????????????? ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? It caught my eye because of its looks then I saw the badge on the back of the Holden symbol. but then I got stuck by a red light.
December 31, 200619 yr Author Well, to cap off the year, I took a little drive today and did some lot cruising. I was looking at a $34k Edge when a British Racing Green Triumph TR8 came rolling onto the lot, little aluminum Buick V8 burbling like a champ. In great shape the car was, and I had to compliment the driver (an older guy) on it. Funny thing, he didn't know the engine is aluminum. I thought that odd since I figured only real motorheads would keep a car like that on the road. Then, and this is weird... I saw a TR7 the same color in crappy condition driving in a different part of town. Oh, and a bronze '77 Malibu (base, no Classic) coupe with a blue door. Oh, and a '78 Cutlass Supreme coupe, dark blue lightly optioned, in the grocery store parking lot. Still kicking when any Japanese car of that vintage has long since rotted away.
December 31, 200619 yr Doing work in my workplaces parking lot, and almost get run over by a Porsche Carrera. I jump out of the way and almost get hit by a Boxster. Both silver.
January 1, 200719 yr Final sightings of 2006: Final 500 Aurora I got to put an '07 Tahoe LTZ under the knife the other day at the local Chevy/Buick/Pontiac/GMC/Isuzu/Mitsubishi dealer...fantastic SUV. Only drawback was the price...for $49,350, I'd keep saving for an Escalade w/the 22" rims. I also got to sit in a Brazen Orange '06 GTO...it was easily the best passenger car from GM I've been in in recent memory...blew the '07 Impala LS my parents' company bought my grandparents right out of the water.
