Lots of good spots today on my drive to and from San Jose today, but only got pics of a couple.

First, this really well-built Wrangler with desert camp wrap. Looks kinda pink here, but was actually tan.

Next saw this well-kept Alfa spider.

sucderia, lol... next to a Veyron, though...

and nice evening, took the trip to the other side of town...

stuck behind a girl in a Saturn going slow, just couldn't get close to this guy, she kept turning the same way, then he jumped this green light to turn left ahead of oncoming traffic and I lost him, best pic I could get.

this guy I noticed as I was in traffic and had to keep going, no way to get a shot... screw that, he's going to be stopped for a while, pull in around the next corner, run over, jump a wall, run into traffic, and, yay! he hadn't moved yet. light turned green about 3 seconds after this.

oldest Dodge I've ever seen, later in the evening, and old fellow checking it out at the same I was ID'd it for me: "I'd forgotten, but when I was a kid, my dad had one of these!" kind of a nice moment, dude was 85+.

I know what you mean... but I've just seen my first 3 E36 M3 sedans, and remember, they're still M3's, and go like stink! Though of course if you really wanted a sedan in the 1990's, you'd get an M5...
 
I actually don't think I've seen an e36 sedan m3 before. I'm assuming they are a lot more rare than the coupe version?
 
Car spotting was pretty damn great today

Was rather disappointed at the lack of old cars today. I saw this 1963 Studebaker Hawk (thanks @playnthru ) but was far away :(

Those ugly orange Subaru things are that rare? There's one that drives around here sometimes but I never got a picture.

Just a few things while I went downtown to mow my mom's boss's grass.


This is one of probably 15 cars I've seen today with red wheels. Wtf.

In super bright sunlight, the orange actually looks good. But yes, there's 100 L.E. WRX STi's and 200 L.E. WRX's.
Also I didn't't know an ELR was good. There's a couple strolling through my town. They really do look good in person.
 
A few from earlier today... going out again, but it's hot...

let's see about this afternoon, now...
 
Think the STS vs are rare, I think not a lot were made. Saw one yesterday where I saw the Capri fox body

Have I seen anything good today. Well, lets see...

I went by the house today where I usually see the same old Chrysler Crossfire SRT-6 and a Chevrolet EL Camino was there today.

Just because I haven't take a picture of a Tacoma X-Runner in a while.


I finally found the Datsun 510 I was searching for!


An old Ford and I have no idea about the model.


A '67 Mustang in front of a Fox Mustang GT.





My first Hummer H3 T apparently. Now, when am I going to see a H1?!

Kouki S14 240SXs, yay.



A Saturn Vue Redline, which is sort of rare and I found it a bit intersting.

dang, looks like you were shy about the drivers in the NSX's, would've like more shots!

And, Kouki, not Kouski... love 'em either way!
 
I'm sorry about that, I keep thinking it's Kouski for some reason, probably because I just think it sounds better.
