Cars I Spot on the Road
-
For reasons that are completely lost on me, the area that I live has a lot of cool and unusual cars. So, I figured I will start a thread on what I see and post them when I do. I'll try to get pics, but if I'm driving...well, Google is your friend
This morning was a Buick Reatta. Anyone remember these? I think they were the first production car to have a touch screen interface. That's about all it was famous for. Rare to see one.
-
Oh man, wait till you see the stuff that I spot.
-
Post them up!!! Can be anything. I saw an H1 Hummer the other day. Not exactly rare, but interesting to see one. The funny part is they really aren't as big as they seem. I think a Toyota Highlander or Tundra is bigger.
-
I see these everywhere, including electric conversions...

and they're terrible offroad for being an "offroad vehicle"

These are super cool and I see them regularly. I really want one.
-
@scottalanmiller hmmm might look into these when I can drive again, might be a cheap way of getting to work

Yeah, both here in Noto and when I was in Rome. They are all over. Not like the Fiat 500 or Panda or anything. But if you go downtown even in our small city here, you will likely see one a few times a week. I have many times seen two parked together near a coffee shop.

That thing would never fly here. I think I'll look up its top speed.

Around 40 I think. You can drive them at 14 here.

Saw this little gem today:
Never was a big fan of Thunderbirds, but OK. The real unusual thing about it was we are expecting 12" of snow today and he is driving THAT thing in it?

My grandfather drove one of those for years. It was canary yellow.

Hopefully he didn't park it like this guy did in the picture! (I noticed it while I was typing my response LOL.)

No clue all we have are pictures of it, he sold it before my mother was born. He had bought it brand new and took care of it like it was his baby.

That thing will push the snow out of the way, lol. It's heavier than it looks.

My father wasn't too much of a car guy, but his dream car (truck) was the Little Red Express.
Little known fact: This truck was the fastest production vehicle you could buy in 1978
