I predict some tops will come off this month. Have your eyes ready! Post your interesting and unusual vehicle spots right here.

1957 T-bird, white over light blue, had the optional 312, dual quads, optional race kit high-po cam, 1of 8 so equipped. Excellent original condition, 1,300 miles, drag strip car, really cool.

May Day is electric and hybrid day so far... saw two Tesla roadsters w/ tops open, a black Tesla Model S, a Leaf, a dark red Fisker Karma, 3 Lexus HS250hes, a 1st gen Honda Insight (badging removed and a Transformer badges added along w/ 'ASU' in chrome letters on the rear) and my coworker's new silver Honda Insight (replaced his silver Civic Hybrid that got totalled recently).... all within a 1/2 mile of my office.

Also saw a Tesla S today, white. If we weren't opposite each other at a light, I would never have noticed it- pretty generic.
'50 Merc 2-dr, black, chopped & shiney, Fing sweet, motorin'. I love these, HAVE to get one someday.

'66 LeMans 2-dr hardtop, aqua, buddy bought it & we trailered it home. Needs a motor/trans, but is pretty solid for a Jersey oldie. Looking forward to getting a nice 389 in it.

Drove out toward Atlanta on Thursday and saw quite a few C-Maxes.

Saw a white '14 Grand Cherokee on the freeway this morning...didn't realize the '14s were out yet. New headlights are a bit garish w/ the light pipes.

Nice day for a walk...The Alliance was a "GTA" model, but the top wasn't down:

Good Lord! Forgot that the Renault 19 was sold as a 2 door/convertible in the US. Renault has come a looong way since then :yes:

I haven't seen one of the '80s AMC Renaults in ages...can't recall the last time I saw one.

Noticed the '14 Impalas were in stock at the local Chevy store..they have 3 in front of the showroom--black, dark red, dark blue. Sharp.

In a center city parking lot today, another Regal GS with NY plates in Black Diamond, as I left. Rare birds.

Earlier on the street walking, a Murano Cross Cabriolet with all windows and top down, just sitting there in a space. Talk about wide open space from above...

Saw a black & red Ariel Atom in traffic this morning...first time I'd ever seen one on the road...what a cool car. Though I think it would be much more fun on a winding backroad than in 5 lanes of morning rush hour traffic.....also saw a white and gold Dodge Ramcharger, battered and worn but still on the road..one of the last sold in the US ('90-92 or so).

Black 2014 Acura RLX rolling down the highway yesterday. Not sure if it was one we sold or from elsewhere. Jewel Eye lights look great doing down the road.

Ocean City MD Endless Cruise weekend. 3200 registered cars, easily another 1000 there. Overload.

OC Spring is always a real treat, after the doldrums of winter. I wish I could have gone this year, but I had stomach problems last week and didn't feel like traveling. Dad and his wife were there in her green '72 LeMans. Thanks for posting, Balthy!

Very cool OC car cruise sights. Even living near for years, I've never been but my brother goes every year and enjoys. Got rainy over the weekend throwing event off a bit, but great photos above.

buick encore a few days back.... maybe while i was home in MO ..?

Saw the Oscar Meyer Weinermobile in traffic yesterday...first one I'd ever seen.

'75 Pontiac Trans Am, 400/4-spd car, no powertrain, bad body cancer, stripped.

'66 Cadillac Fleetwood Series 60 Special, all black, crusty from sitting but savable.

'64 Pontiac LeMans 2-dr post coupe, extremely rough, no motor/trans/title, asking $1500, I wouldn't spend over $250 on it.

'61 Cadillac Fleetwood Series 75 sedan, all black, factory air, rough & rusty, interior gone.

My first new Impala, a gray LTZ in the gymnasium parking lot. Such a quantum leap over the outgoing model, full of presence. Beautiful inside and out.

I haven't seen one this clean in a long time. The sticker on the back of the car showed that it had come from a dealership in Portland. That would explain the lack of rust. I'd love to have this car.

That is a nice one! After a disastrous start with the FWD X-bodies, these A-bodies just ran and ran. I still see a lot of these on the road, even here in PA, where rust usually cuts a good car's life short.

Two oldies on my walk to work this a.m.:

That Catalina Safari is unbelievably clean. Even the original interior looks great.

Saw 5 Tesla Model S in the commute tonight...white, silver, dark red, dark gray, black.

Wow on that P-68! Tough to find '60s Pontiac wagons!

Last week...forgot...a white 2006 or earlier GMT-800 Silverado Extd Cab 4x4 Hybrid. Totally looked normal until I saw the green "Hybrid" badges on the front doors. Little old man driving it from the gas station. One of the first, before the new gen switchover.

Don't know if I've ever seen more than 2 of these total.
