Over near Lancaster when I was passing through I saw a 68 GTO ragtop, green with a tan top and interior, I think it had keystone mag wheels and looked right out of the 70's, as it was painted a different metallic green than the factory color.

Did that GTO show up at any local car show's, blu?

Saw a whole car carrier load of new Camaro's on rt. 23. That new orange color is the cat's ass on that car.

Saw a 39 Pontiac rat rod 4 door...nice to see somthing other than billit and chrome on these older cars.

Nothing wrong w/ the title. Cool on seeing 4 Camaros! I've seen zero so far, and I'm in a large metro area.

As far as the car spotter thread, personally I'd like it if we had a pinned, single continuous thread for it, like the Word Association thread. Sometimes, I can never find the car spotter thread for a given month because the titles are different every month.

Saw a white '10 Mustang GT at lunch..sharp.

I haven't seen any 2010 Mustangs but the Ford dealer in town has sold a few the same day they came in. I know sometimes the titles get wild and hard to understand. I live in area of 75,000 people or so and one medium and one large Chevy dealer within 15 minutes of each other. People love Chevrolet's in my area.

The midwest, where we both live, does seem to be a haven for domestics.

I've seen several new Mustangs this week. Still the same 3 Camaros. Honestly, I like the Mustang better, it looks smaller and more athletic.

Satty, I hate to say it, but the Challenger is growing on me.

Mustang looks good in the grabber blue color they have for it.

Son and I looked at a Grabber Blue convertible at the local Ford dealer.

Nice!

Nice..haven't seen one yet in Grabber Blue. So far, I've seen a silver V6 convertible (in PA), dark red GT convertible (in OH), and a black GT coupe and a dark gray GT coupe here in AZ. I snagged a brochure the other day, want to study it and the 'build your own' part of the Ford website.

The Challenger is way too big, in person its massive, thats just not my style. If I get something that big, its going to have 4 doors and a tailgate.

Posted

The Challenger is more the size of say a 1960's Fury than a Pony car.

It looks killer in the B5 blue. The Hemi makes the car, IMHO.

With 5 kids....hmmm...I could put two in the backseat and they would be far enough apart to keep from fighting with each other.

I really like the '10 Mustang, except it has "black diaper syndrome", that massive, black textured lower rear bumper area. I know, Camaro has it too, but it looks worse on the Ford, imo. Also, some of the wheels on the '10 Mustang are sort of effeminate.

The Challenger has road presence, that's for sure. It's a bad ass looking car, even in six cylinder form with the 18 inch rims. I hope they can put the Pentastar V6 in it with manual transmission next year.

I've been moaning about not seeing any Camaros at the local Chevy dealer I used to work for, but I called over there today to order a part for a customer's Yukon and the parts manager said they've had some... all sold orders that are in and out immediately. He said he'd call me when another one comes in. I hope he doesn't forget me.

We have a bunch of Camaro's around here, I have seen a bunch on the road. The last 4 (yes 4) that I saw were all silver.

Brand new red '10 Mustang V6 with factory chrome/polished wheels...looked more different than you'd think from pictures and ah, that glimmering, fresh off the lot, paper plates look 8) Funny thing, I was looking at it as we passed and the guy driving it was staring at the 'ole G8 similarly.

Well 1 day after complaining about the crap that i normally see here:

Today i saw that crappy Honda Insight again.. but more importantly.

BENTLEY GT BABY!

Saw a black Continental GT today, when I was pulling into my company parking lot..it was sitting at the light. Sweet.

That all you got? I saw a police Segway the other day. Not just one of those mall security ones, but an actual police department Segway with an armed officer on board. But I dont think it has a siren.

I travel to the Warren tech center alot, so I've seen lot's of Camaros and new 2010 Equinox's. But this morning I saw a new 2010 White Buick LaCrosse on 696. Not sure what trim level it was but is only had 2 letters under the name, so probally a CX. That car looks like it is targeting the new Lincon and Lexus models... and should do well against both!

Posted

Saw a gorgeous blue Lamborghini Gallardo. Had to drive slowly past it to get a good look. My wife still thinks I'm nuts.

Yesterday I saw a VW Phaeton. That was rare, never seen one before.

Oh, and a couple of Ferrari 360 convertibles. Yes 2 of them, different ones on different days. One red the other silver.

Posted

Took a stroll to the kitchen to make some tea then out into the front lobby for a brief break a few min ago..saw a bright red G8 GT pull up out front. Sweet...

Posted (edited)

After dinner, I cruised down Camelback past the car dealers...and saw my first '10 Camaro! Sitting on the front lot of Courtesy Chevrolet, next to the showroom was a black SS w/ huge aftermarket black wheels and a large 'SOLD' sign in the side window. Sharp. Across the street at Coulter Cadillac, they had a slate blue G8 GT (they always seem to have a G8 or two), and two XLRs, one with '$15,995 OFF' on the side in huge letters...

No..no rush to buy something..need more garage space first.. :)

An interesting mix tonite on the way home..

A white w/ white top '88 or so Town Car that spotless--looked new...have a soft spot for those, since my Dad always drove them and I drove his to high school occasionally.

A white w/ white top '71-72 Buick Skylark convertible, very clean..

A very clean bronze mid '80s Celebrity 4dr, A/C must have been out--had the windows down

A worn out faded red late '80s LeSabre, also w/ the A/C out and all the windows down, no rear window, and decklid tied w/ a bungee cord

An '00-05 Impala, painted 4 different primer colors. No idea what color it originally was.

Posted
That generation Skylark convertible is one of the best looking cars GM ever made IMHO.

Chris

Yeah, I just saw it quickly breeze past on the opposite side on the freeway...pretty sure it wasn't a GS..didn't have a blacked-out grille. Had the Buick road mags. Don't see those very often.

I think if I had any classic GM convertible, I'd want a '71 Centurion...I just love the '71-72 B-bodies, and esp. the Buick body sculpting...

Posted

Buick did a lot of thing sright during that Era. My Grandfather dated a woman who drove one of those 71-72 Buick convertibles your talking about...amazing car.

I was a nine year old kid the last time I rode in it...probably why I have such a damned fetish for ragtops today.

An uncle had a '71 ragtop and later a '73 coupe, both Centurions..I have vague memories from about age 4-9 of riding in them in the '70s.. I love the fuselage styling of the big GMs of that era...my dream car garage would have a '71 Centurion convertible, '71 Riviera, '72 Impala sport coupe, '71 Olds 88 ht, '71 Catalina or Bonneville, a '71 Coupe De Ville, amongst other '60s-70s GMs, Fords, and Mopies... :)

Relatively dirty silver '10 Camaro SS from Pennsylvania cruising south on Rt. 1 here in Lewes/Rehoboth yesterday. That's, hmm, only the 2nd one I've seen driving anywhere when I'm out, and I actually liked the subdued silver more than the vivid banana...err, yellow.
