The big butt of the 928 is aging so well!

I once guessed the the gender of an author based on their having a "hardened" PI drive a Porsche---928 in a detective novel.

I always liked the 928, but it isn't a Porsche I'd own.

It's not very Porsche at all (V8? FR?), but it's a cool car.

Such a gorgeous old Jag.  I like the XK140 because it retained the outwardly shape of the XK120 but improved the running gear.  The XK150 didn't look as good.

Initially, I believe, Mercury was a rebadged Lincoln, same chassis with, difference metal.  Then it became a rebadged Ford.

Late-model Citroen 2CV, not as pretty as the early models...





I traded cars with my dad for a week - driving his B200. Saw this mid-1960s Opel Rekord while out for a joy drive.

Downtown Munich on a Saturday afternoon: BRABUS Mercedes-Benz 700XLP ADVENTURE and a Lamborghini Diablo VT.






















Amidst the BRABUS Mercedes-Benz 700XLP ADVENTURE and Lamborghini Diablo VT - AC Cobra, Ferrari 360 Modena and a Mercedes-Benz AMG GT-R.













McLaren 600LT









One of the few good-looking electric cars: the Audi e-Tron GT RS. Sucks about the electric motor, I'd rather see an INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE up front!









Ancestor and Descendant: Mercedes-Benz 300D W123 (and W212 taxi)

Ford V8. 1940 model?















Volkswagen Golf Cabriolet









Chevrolet Van 30 Camper













A Mercedes-Benz 250 W123! The 250 along with the 220D are the rarest W123s in Germany. The 220D was a low volume car and the 250 had Solex carburetor issues and was known as a gas-guzzler.





Citroen 2CV Charleston











A frigging Scion TC! What the hell is this doing here?  :lol:









One of the most beautiful and cute Fiat 500s I've seen! I just wanna hug it!









Volkswagen Passat B2









Mazda RX8 (when was the last time you saw one of these?)









North American-spec Mercedes-Benz W116 S-Class. It has a "6.9" badge at the rear, but it seems fishy to me.









BMW Z8

Ach du leiber! Is das Amerikanische!



Haha. Actually the people in that photo look interested in the vehicle. That is a genuine WWII era Jeep. The recessed headlights were redesigned for the postwar CJ series Jeeps.

The shovel and axe are a nice touch. :ohyeah:

Saw this on my ride through the neighborhood.

Body work and interior were top notch, and those are Wilwood 4WDBs. Not so rare in general, but on a four door? Very interesting choice.

Have always been a closet Buick fan.

Nicely done.  One of my favourite cars from the mid '50s.

It was missing a 50 caliber machine gun.  :lol:





BMW 3200CS at a gas station  today. Gorgeous.












Lovely Mercedes-Benz 200D W115 - 55-horsepower of old school Diesel power never looked so good.  :wub:











Volkswagen T2 with advertising on the side (Pfanni = food manufacturer here)...





I'm guessing this is some kind of late 1940s Dodge...





Ferrari 812. I know these supercars are supposed to excite you with their "amazing design" but honest I felt nothing when I saw this. I find this car to look utterly bland and emotionless.







Mazda RX-8 in Mühldorf am Inn. With gas prices soon to be 2 Euros per liter this guy won't be having much fun...  :cry:









Old school Opel Kapitän. Sorry for the crap pics...











COMMUNISM vs CAPITALISM! At the time when this BMW 520 was on sale in West Germany, East Germans were puttering around in the Trabant 601 seen here. But this is not just any Trabant 601, this is a "Universal" version which basically means it's a wagon. Spotted both of these cars in Mühldorf am Inn, Germany. Both are for sale.











A Volkswagen Passat B2 Hatchback in Mühldorf am Inn, Germany. I remember how in the late1980s and early 1990s these were all over the place. They are now a rare sight.

Lovely Harley Davidson motorcycle - with the appropriate looking rider!

Love that Z8!

The Golf R looks good...better than mine I would say (although same color).
