As I was on I-95 on my way home today I see this birght, lime green thing in my rear view mirror, as it pulls up beside me I look and see a Lamborghini Gallardo. It had 30 day tags with today's date, the guy had just bought it.

XP was nice enough to let Sofia take the Razorback for a spin. :P

Sofia has also gotten into the habit of saying she likes HER yellow

Cadillac. Not even three and a half and she's a certified car nut!

All right y'all, I'm going to have to take a road trip up your way Sly. There are too many cars up there for me to see. I haven't really seen anything down here to jump around after, so I can't report anything interesting.

Anyone ever hear of a Mirage Monza? It was a first for me.

76 Trucker:

Oh yeah... I say ou do it. I'll show you the TIGHT WHIPS collection

and you can check out our coveted Tight Whips Museum, which

contains such items as a smushed 1968 Camaro fender, blown up

rear end pumpkin that looks like a shotgun was used, air cleaner

off of 350 Rocket from a 1977 Cutlass Supreme.... sedan and also

a 1996 Stang Cobra fender that was used to paint a tree.

As far as the classic cars up here, I'll have to step it up a bit.

You ain't seen NOTHIN' yet!

The guy in the neighborhood with a butternut yellow 1966 Buick Skylark

ragtop is selling it so it's been on his front lawn for a while now.

Then there's the gorgeous 1970 Chevelle SS I saw yesterday... it was

a dark-teal metallic. Gorgeous, masculine color. :wub:

Som other's that I have seen over the weekend.

- 1965 Plymouth Valiant 2dr (original black paint)

- Green BMW 2002 (1974?)

- scummy red 1966 Ford Galaxie 500 ragtop

- 1976 Buick LeSabre 4-door hardtop, painted "monkey $hit brown"... in my driveway!

The Monza Mirage was a special edition, with a body kit made to look like the IMSA (?) roadrace Monzas. It was called "Mirage" because it was made to fool the onlooker into thinking it was the actual race car.

I saw a spotless, pristine 1978 Chevette 5 door in light green/tan in Ocean City this weekend. Among others.

Saw a Silverado Hybrid yesterday - first one I'd seen on the road.

Also, got a call from my dad last weekend. He's retiring and moving to Satty's neck of the woods (actually a bit south of there, to Table Rock Lake). Said he had some power tools that didn't sell in his yard sale and asked if I wanted them. Being a fan of power tools, I said sure. 'OK, I'll be over in a bit'.

He rolls up in a brand new red 2WD 2007 Silverado C2500 extended cab. *Nice* rig. He got the 6.6L Duramax with the Allison tranny and the LT2 package. He's absolutely loving it so far. It's got effortless power, and he's averaged about 20 MPG, not bad for a 3/4 ton truck. This is his first diesel, and I don't think he'll go back to a gas engine any time soon.

In the town right next to me, on the way to work, I pass a yellow 2007 Saturn SKY Redline. Other than mine and supposedly a red base SKY in the town on the other side of me, still very few SKY sightings.

The other morning on the way to work, a yellow (you could tell it's the original paint) 1988 Pontiac Fiero Formula. I see it later on in the day parked outside of a local car mechanic, which incidentally has several '50s/'60s cars (need to pull into the lot over the weekend to see what exactly they are).

Now that the weather's nice, I'm seeing all sorts of convertibles - yellow, dark teal & red SSRs, late model bright red Viper, 2002-2004 black Ford T-bird.

Acadia's are multiplying on my local roadways - red jewel coat, carbon metallic, silver seem to be the popular colors so far. Two OUTLOOKs recently, both silver - on XE and one XR (seen in Atlantic City on Tuesday). No Enclave at the local BPG dealer yet.

Classics galore on the weekends. Usually going the opposite direction, so it's hard to tell at times what they are. Mostly ID'd early-to-mid '50s Chevies and Fords though.

On the dealer lots today: new style VUE XE AWD in white. Bleh. This thing could have a Kia emblem on it. Also another surefire non-classic: new style xB in "Hypnotic Teal Mica". With automatic and floor mats, over $17k. A travesty.
Posted

As a current xB owner I'm not sure I like the new xB either...

And 17k will take away from sales for sure.

Dealer hopping is fun... First, I found a car I rarely see, but are somewhat popular on C&G thanks in part to a certain Admin. Second, I came across a car that I absolutely fell in love with. Course... That happens every week or so, but regardless, I did. :P

Yes, a first gen Aurora. I always see second gen Auroras, but rarely a first. Sadly, this one was the first I was able to actually sit in. I must say... It's not as roomy and comfortable as Fly made me believe. It has slighty more room inside than my Millenia. The big advantage being width. As well, the seats seemed small and I'm a small guy. This is the first time I've ever felt the need to actually adjust the headrest so it wasn't protruding into my back. Otherwise, as I've mentioned before, I love these Auroras. This particular one was sort of falling apart... has 190k miles and must have been abused.

Cool GTI, Vipes. My favorite car ever was my '00 GTI 1.8T. It was so darn versatile... practical, luxurious, quick, fun to drive...

O.B.

Really? I would not take any VW GTi ever made over a Corvair Monza. :blink:
