That is a beaut! Haven't seen any here, yet.

The new RDX is an abomination, looks-wise.

Women are generally kinder to older men.  It happens to me all the time.  I just wish they wouldn't call me deary.

haha - I'm not quite at the "deary" stage yet .
Seriously I think that's one of the most beautiful cars I've seen around here, and there are some nice ones, but they look mundane in comparison.

A beautiful car indeed.  Those exclusive marques somehow seem to reach a higher level of design.

Saw this beauty on the street today. It's not a real RS, but a 1972 Porsche 911 with a transplanted 3.3 engine from the successor 930 G-Model. Owner was a lovely lady who happened to show up as I was taking snapshots of her ride, hence the quick interior shot was possible. 














I'm gonna visit this Italian restaurant just because the owners are obviously so cool and advertise it on this classic Fiat 500L!

If she was so lovely, you should've taken her picture too.  We really appreciate looking at the cars, but a lovely lady would be a nice bonus; or is that her with her face blotted out?

In the first photo the lady crossing the street was her. Due to GDPR I have to blur out faces and license plates - or even tattoos if they were visible. Anything that can be used to identify someone needs to be dealt with.



Alfa Romeo Spider Series III






Renault Clio RS Sport










Audi 80L - rare survivor. Most of them have rusted to bits!

Sweet Porsche!

Fiat 126 650 complete with a rubber ducky that is thankfully wearing a mask to "protect" it from COVID-19. 

1983 Toyota FJ40 Diesel (HOW DARE YOU!!!!) - FOR SALE.









Volvo Amazon Sedan









My second Mercedes-Benz GLB which I've seen on the road. A nice little inoffensive SUV.







Ford 15M with a V4 engine.

















Mercedes-Benz 200 (W123)








Mercedes-Benz 280SL (R107)





Porsche 968 Convertible







Peugeot 404 Convertible







WOW! Peugeot 504 Pickup

Ah, a Taunus! I remembered there was something really weird about them.

(googles)

Oh yeah, it uses a V4.. wtf!

Oddly, both Britain and Germany had their own V4 developed at about the same time, Essex V4 vs. Cologne V4.  Similar, but different.

Saw this McLaren-Mercedes SLR today. Look at the front tires and the dead insects on the snout - this thing gets used on the Autobahn!

The SLS has the shape of a penis car, but the long protrusion on the hood makes it absolutely overt!

Mercedes-Benz 190SL, 1949 Cadillac, Ford E150 Econoline, Ferrari 330GT and a BMW M1.

I was enjoying the pictures until I saw that Ford Econoline conversion van. What a pile of crap.

But it survived the 1970s!

Is it that old? It looks like a mid-80s model.
Anyway, I am much more intrested in the big blue VW "California" van hiding behind the SL convertible.

You know more about it than me! Looked like a late 1970s model, but I didn't check the number on the rear lights... 



DMC Ferrari F12

Mercedes-Benz R107 SL and a Facel Vega Facel II

Strictly from a looks perspective, I think the SLR and the SLS have both aged really, really well.  I think the AMG coupe will too.

Eh, I don't think the big dick laying on the hood will help the SLR.

Sometimes you just gotta lay your dick out on the hood.  It happens

I've never been a big fan of the SLR. Too gaudy IMO. The SLS and AMG GT are much nicer.

The biggest let-down of the SLR was the interior: both in terms of material quality (cheapish-looking plastic) and design (bland).



Mary Kay Porsche 911 Convertible!





Rolls-Royce Phantom





TVR Chimera





BRABUS Mercedes-Benz G850









Mercedes-Benz CLA45S AMG

Whoa! A 1990s Mitsubishi Lancer in decent shape. These never sold well in Germany so seeing this one is pretty cool.










Abandoned early-model Mercedes-Benz 200D with 55-neck-snapping-horsepower!









Pristine Mercedes-Benz 230TE T-Modell (S123). Gorgeous and perfect - except for that manual transmission; needs to be replaced with the smooth 4-speed automatic.











BMW 2002 Automatic















Porsche 365.

IF THAT PUS YELLOW 200D IS A 4 SPEED MANUAL, THEN I WILL SELL MY SOUL IN ORDER TO AQUIRE IT.

It did indeed have a manual transmission (you kind of need it on the 200D! ). Hey, you can import this thing into the USA! 0-62 mph in 33 seconds, baby!
