Just two spots away from the Lexus was this Volkswagen Thing (Type 181).


1958 Imperial (not Chrysler, Imperial was its own brand at this point) hardtop outside a machine shop.

Also saw a Pontiac LeMans yesterday while getting gas.

Last, but not least, while grabbing the mail today after work, I heard a nice rumble coming up behind me while walking back to my car. I didn't turn around and waited for it to go by before I saw what it was. A blacked out Maserati GranTurismo. I would have gotten my phone out for a picture had I known that's what was coming by. :ouch:

I spent last week in Miami Beach. Needless to say there were a ton of cool cars down there. But since I was mostly driving at the time I didn't get any pictures. Several Lamborghini Urus, one Rolls Royce Cullinan, Bentley Bentaygas, various Ferrari's including one 812, more Porsche's than anything else, Gallardos, Huracans, one orange McLaren 720S.

One day driving down A1A there was a truck parked in the middle lane and as I got closer they were loading up some sort of Lamborghini but I couldn't tell what it was. It had an Aventador shape, fixed rear wing, white with some black lower trim, Italian Tricolore striping. SVJ maybe? It was running as I got alongside of it and it sounded mean.

Traffic down there is wild so I had to be careful and not rubberneck too much looking at cars so I didn't smash into the back of one of them.

The trip home from work was horrendous Friday evening with torrential rain and wind, but I did go by this train of cars. GT-R, 370Z and Camaro.

I had to wait around at a tire shop and there were a couple of Firebirds. A 3rd-gen Formula 350 and a 1978 2nd Gen Firebird T/A. I liked that the Trans Am had Smokey & The Bandit colors.

I honestly have seen other interesting cars including a 1971 Camaro in red (but missing a spoiler), but couldn't take pictures of such cars due to driving.
 
Haven't seen terribly much lately, but there's a few worthy of sharing. Like this Audi R8 GT Spyder that was parked outside of the showroom at my new job yesterday.

I've also seen this Crossfire SRT6 at my local target a few times.

There was a car show at a local dealership for father's day, and of everything there these two Pontiacs were the only ones I felt compelled to capture.

All original '67 Firebird with the OHC Six and a slushbox. It's not a Sprint, so it's only got the piddly 2-barrel carb , lower compression and mild cam, but it's always cool to see one of these engines.

And this Tempest with half an engine. I really like these pre-GTO Tempests and you don't see them very often, though I'm partial to the hardtops myself. Fun factoid: these share a platform with the Corvair, and have a transaxle in the rear with IRS. Pretty trick stuff for the early 60s.
 
I actually did see a lot of interesting things today, because I sort of decided to make today a "car day". I drove 2 hours north to Ashburn VA to a car show, then to nearby exotic car dealerships for fun. I took a lot of pictures of cars at each location, which I'll post some pictures in the event/showroom thread. However, these are neat cars I saw outside of the event and dealerships (mostly customer cars).

In the spoiler as usual.

This was from yesterday, a Ford Mustang II Cobra.
