Title: ***Geiger US Cars Munich***
Post by: cawimmer430 on August 08, 2019, 02:32:20 PM
Was in the neighborhood, so I stopped by and took some snapshots. The cars I want the most are that gorgeous yellow '58 Chevrolet Apache Pickup and the '59 Cadillac Eldorado! Damn!  :wub:

One of the most beautiful Cadillacs ever along with the 1957-1958 Cadillac Eldorado Brougham. God damn that thing is hot.  :wub:

Love those old Corvettes, such a great design.

Was a bit surprised to find out that Geiger is a official Chevrolet, and Cadillac partner. Looked it up, and GM does export the entire Cadillac range (including Escalade) + Corvette, and  Camaro to Europe. I am not sure why GM bothers. Geiger then imports the Silverado/Suburban/Tahoe + GMC on their own accord.

I wonder who buys them. I rarely see any GM products (aside from Corvettes) driving in the city.

That Power Wagon is intensely cool. The 58 Chevy is very rare. Worth $.

Of the US trucks, I would say ~90% I see are Rams, which is quite popular with the horse riding crowd, although they are generally de-rated to 3,500kg and converted to LPG or CNG.

There is a Husky sled race in my area I like to visit every winter, and it funny but most of the contestants are in US trucks, I think to some extent it borders on cos play. They do not play an anime or Star Trek character, they play 'Murrican.

I see American H-D biker cosplayers in France. Creaky leather outfits drenched with 'Murican flags, eagles, and whatnot.. but speaking fluent French.

This one appeared to be customized. It appeared lowered to me and had some bling bling chrome wheels added to it.

Yep, the Dodge RAM is the most "popular" US pickup I see around here. Ford and GM pickups? You'd be lucky to see one at all!!!
