Saw my first C8 Corvette today - it was right behind me on the freeway. Then a truck towing a trailer with a blown tire got in front of it. Crazy C8 driver didn't change lanes - guess he was OK with the risk of getting tire chunks flying at his windshield.

omg a Z1 :wub: :facepalm:

Saw one yesterday, I'm a bit late with posting some of the cars I saw yesterday. :lol:

Z1s are pretty "common" in Munich. I see at least two or three per month - and in different colors.

A guy in our condo building has a C3 Corvette that I first heard rumbling around behind the building where the wash station is.  Bright red convertible in beautiful condition, and loud.  I'll take a couple of pictures if I can find it in the garage.

My favourite Corvette is the C2, just like the more classic appearance, but the C3 is still special.

Model A or T. Driving down a 45mph road, not sure how fast it was going as it was going opposite direction with no other traffic with it.

Peugeot RCZ on the Autobahn...





Mercedes-Benz 280SL "Pagoda" (W113) - hate these sporty wheels on these.







The most beautiful S-Class ever: the W116. This was possibly a 280S or 280SE judging from the trim.  :wub:

I love those old style Mercedes wheels where the center color matches the paint color of the car.

Yesterday on the way to Nürnberg as I was driving past Ingolstadt: upcoming Audi e-Tron GT.









Today I saw the new Volkswagen ID.3 again. They're slowly popping up all over, although this was a dealer demo car.

I like the blend between hatchback and CUV on that VW.

On the way to Nürnberg: an Avanti!




On the way to Nürnberg: Mercedes-Benz 300D (W123) in the rain, sticking correctly to the right lane where it belongs with its 80/88-horsepower.





MOWAG 300 - a Swiss company that made light trucks with Chrysler V8 gasoline engines. Spotted in Nürnberg.











Late afternoon in Nürnberg, some small Mercedes-Benz meet-up: W126, C63 AMG Convertible (A205), an A45 AMG (W176) and a C63 AMG Wagon (S205).








Badass Chevrolet Camaro passing the Mercedes-Benz meet in Nürnberg. In the last photo you can see the famous Zeppelinfeld main tribune in the background.







"I can afford the gasoline here, b*tches!" - Buick LeSabre Wagon in Munich.











BMW i3 Quick Response Ambulance - one jolt of defibrillator and the car's battery is dead.




In Munich: 1980s (?) Cadillac Eldorado. I know that Cadillac stopped making convertibles after the mid-1970s Eldorado, so this is an aftermarket job, right?

They're obviously rare here as well. They're not my favorite classic, but I recognize their significance.

That Mowag truck is wacky. It's about a 1961 Dodge 300. I guess.  :muffin:

Is that a VW or Honda minivan towing? Most minivans are supposed to tow no more than 3500 lbs, those trailers are 2000 lbs, my Miata is 2500 lbs.....  :huh:

It's the current Volkswagen Touran, and very likely a TDI (Diesel) model. ;)

Always loved the 928.

Learned today that my neighbor with the 850 actually has two of them, one silver, one black. Plus a W108 Mercedes...
