What's the most interesting car you saw today?

Mine is a mechanic. :slight_smile:

Cars, lawnmowers, etc.; the last major work she did was a brake job on a friend’s Maverick sedan. Her back won’t let her do that sort of thing anymore.

Is her name Mona Lisa Vito?

A Jeep Wrangler 4xe plug-in hybrid. Essentially no branding to distinguish it from an ICE Wrangler except the “4xe” badge and the license plate.

Am I the only one that doesn’t like the look of those older Porsche 356’s? Right off the bat, it appears that the axles aren’t wide enough for the body.

Well, I’ll admit that at least it does have some sportieness in it’s looks. I’m a bit old school though where to me, the sport part of SUV, means camping, going to the beach, hauling all your gear around and dogs around while pulling a trailer. Sport in that aspect. Not zippy.

She does have a similar background; learned from her dad and worked in a garage – until the chauvinists there became a problem.

Add me to the list of people with a first time sighting of a Rivian, the pickup. Looked fine from the rear, not unusual at all. Must have been very new because it was immaculate, unless somebody just bought it for show.

It is a somewhat awkward look. I’ve gotten used to it, but it does have a stance somewhat like a Citroën DS.

My comment is… I’d rather drive an Aztec.

Knock yourself out.

There’s a pickup like that near my house, they just brought it out for good weather. I’ll get a shot, but the one you saw is in much better shape.

I saw a sixth generation Coupe de Ville driving up I-5 today: jet black with bright gold rims with “BLACK WIDOW” scrawled on the back window in red paint. Definitely unique.

I have several photos of cars on my phone that I hadn’t posted about.

This one’s a good license plate. Pleiades: the star cluster, or the 7 Sisters. Subaru is the Japanese name for Pleiades.

In Memphis TN, the cars parked in front of the Lorraine Motel (and the Martin Luther King Museum) are the same as they were in that fateful day in 1968 when he was shot.

Perhaps an homage to Forrest Gump?

This one was in Connecticut.

This is the setup I want on my car, a ramp for my motorcycle.

Another cute license plate, on this green Saab.

Mustang generations.

On the Shafer Trail in Canyonlands.

A typical street scene in Moab.

This Moab Jeep is dirt ready.

Anybody want a Bronco? It’s near Grand Junction CO. If you do, I have more pictures of it.

Another good license plate. This one was in Texas.

A fan of Willie Mays.

The Fisker Ocean.

Chevy HHR. HHR = Heritage High Roof.

Lotus Evora.

CAR 2D2

I wonder what toy is in here?

I own a burnt orange HHR (:sunglasses:) as a sort of backup car (read: its my son’s hand-me-down that he’s now moved on from and I just haven’t been bothered to sell it yet). A couple of months ago I took it in to have new tires put on and there were three other HHR’s in the lot waiting for service. I remarked to the grease monkey “there must be a shitty Chevy convention in town this weekend.” He laughed. In reality it’s been a good, supremely reliable car despite being phenomenally ugly and very uncomfortable to actually drive.

I was expecting a Star Trek reference somewhere.

To boldly go…

And speaking of boldly going, yesterday I spotted a Cybertruck in someone’s driveway. Around here (San Francisco Bay Area), these things are status symbols.

They look like alien vehicles.

My aunt happened to notice the license place on this one.

I had a 1st generation Corvette convertible drive past the house over the weekend. It looked amazing but sounded like the engine was in pain.

I meant on the car. :smiley:
