There's an Aventador in the Cleveland Area, Columbus, too. Not that I've seen one...:(

got a few out on errands on a nice day (75 and scattered fluffy clouds, breezy)

Cutlass?


Galaxie something


I love this Mercury spot! model? and is that something sticking out of its back?


missed catching this V10 as I was pulling onto the highway, then realized it was pulling on behind me from the other side of the road! All I had to do was go slow. First shot is in the side mirror, sorry, I should clean it.



model? looked badass cruising. Totally 70's.


and an action shot of a Charger

Mustangs are very rare in the UK, as are Corvettes, Camaros, Challengers, etc.

Wow, really? I see atleast 2 Mustangs when I go out. Camaros are pretty common, don't see them every day though. Challengers are kind of hard to find, but I see one occasionally.

I live just 10 mins away from the GM factory that makes the Camaro, so its like Camaro city over here. Fun Fun Fun!

Well, while I was in England (13 days), I saw 16 Bentleys and 5 Aston Martins, but no Mustangs or Camaros, and just one Corvette. It's amazing how some cars are a 'good spot' in one place, but are everyday cars somewhere else.

Exactly, and that's one of the things that keeps this thread fresh. Good example is that in France you can't move for series 1 Renault Twingos, but would be a very rare sighting in the UK as they were never manufactured or imported here.
 
Aston Martins are so common here I no longer take a photograph unless a DBS or higher.

But, a Corvette is a very rare spot here, quite glad I was the first to spot a Centennial Edition here though, the only one in the UK :D Some cars are rare in some places, but common for others.
 
Chevrolet did have dealerships in the UK a few years back for Corvettes and Camaros so they became just a little more common, but I think now they only have Chevwoo dealerships :)

In the last month I've seen 2 Mustangs (current shape) and a Plymouth GTX. That's about it. No Camaros, no Challengers, no Chevrolets at all in fact. I only saw the GTX because it belongs to a local guy who gets it out whenever it's sunny.
 
Here you can't go outside for 5 minutes without seeing a Mustang, Challenger, Camaro, and Corvette. I see why you took a picture of it now, I had no idea they were so rare over there.

(Also Chargers and Chrysler 300s are extremely common here. A Viper or Ford GT is a nice sight but definitely not something I'd turn around to get a picture of.)
 
But then there are any number of Brit cars GranTurismo916 will rarely see, if ever. We are kinda stating the obvious here I guess, but people also need to remember that these forums are international ;)

Galaxie 500 maybe? I looks as if there's the little '500' badge after the word 'Galaxie' on the back.

That's a 1971 - 1976 Mercury Cougar convertible! :)

ach - bulsh.. - choo. At least on the Ford GT. I've seen about a dozen vipers total now, and I'd only turn around for an ACR at this point, but unless Ford GT's are freakishly common in some places, I can't imagine not getting excited to see one.

Edit: oh, and thanks Antonisbob!
 
I'd take a picture of a Viper, Mustang or a Ford GT. Any generation is rare here. Actually, there are 2 GT's in the area, an all blue one and a Gulf scheme one.

I've seen 1 Bentley this year and 0 Aston Martins. I saw an Aston Last year, the only one I've seen in my life (if you don't count auto shows).

Anyway, I took these a few days ago (I'm not reall sure if they're rare but I don't see them every day):

Dodge Avenger Coupe (thanks Mark II Bilt)!

saw a bit today. I'll get the rest up later, but this I had to share asap.

My 2nd! And as he was evidently happy to have his picture taken, he worked the engine nicely while completing his turn onto the main drag, beautiful sound!

So....after saying this, I spotted this today opposite my friend's house:

It's a Chrysler but I'm not sure what type. I thought it was a Windsor but it doesn't look quite right.
