A SWARM OF JUNE BUGS (and Crickets, and Spyders, et al)

[Drew Dowdell]

I saw 2 Dodge Journeys, which is 2 more than I thought they sold.

Journey is one of the bright spots of the Dodge lineup right now. They're all over the place here.

Oh yea, my neighbor up the street with the X5 and X3 traded the X3 in on a new SRX. Should I go knock on his door and argue with him about why he traded in a vehicle with the engine oriented the "proper" way for one that was in sideways?..... or should I just be happy that Cadillac made a sale at the expense of BMW?

I have never seen a Lexus HS250h on the road before, and then today I see two of them. I also saw a Hyundai Genesis sedan. It had a winged badge in the middle of the trunk instead of the "H" emblem. Apparently the winged badge is used in Korea and some other markets.

[Camino LS6]

'55 GMC 4x4 pickup, completely restored and standing tall in a silvery dark green with company logos on the doors. Sounded and looked great.

'54? Buick droptop in red, top down and sounding potent, out for a cruise.

[Intrepidation]

A gorgeous red 1970 `Cuda

[Z-06]

E-63 AMG wagon in Black.

Black Porsche Panamera Turbo.

Black 550i GT. That is one hideous machine.

No chance, unforetunately, he was going the other way.

I did think of you though, Roger.

Maybe I'll see it again.

Saw an interesting '90s Roadmaster blasting along on the freeway this afternoon...pale yellow (no vinyl top), black steel wheels on black wall tires, riding high in the front...

[Drew Dowdell]

A rather ghostly image....a hearse from a dead brand.

Help me out with the year? I'm not good at my '70s Pontiacs

1973. Actually reminds me of one of the cars from the Poncho mailing list.

I seriously want a hearse... but I'd prefer a '67-'68 Pontiac Superior one.

[ocnblu]

Yup, that's the front clip from my first car, except mine was a '73 Catalina, it had a different grille mesh.

1973 is not one of my favorite years for the big Ponchos... however, I have something you'll LOL at. I have a 1:16th scale (roughly) 1973 Pontiac Catalina Coupe... riding on 22s. I bought it because I was absolutely stunned that ANYBODY would make a toy in the shape of a '73.

I'll take a few pictures for you.

[ocnblu]

Awesome! Thanks.

It's the Chevy Chase Wagon Queen Family Truckster, or a replica. What's it doing in a parking garage?

Yeah, the car from 'Vacation'...the original (or a replica) was sold at an auction in the last year or two, IIRC.

Not only that, but someone recently built another one.

I recently caught this sweet early '70s Camaro. With exception of the trunklid, the rest of the body and paint really popped.

Unfortunately, it looks like the Camaro is being menaced but a gigantic binder clip. I really need to keep that stuff outta the car if I'm snapping photos. I couldn't get a good shot of the front.

Also, OcnBlu, I have some (lousy, but passable) photos of the remote controlled '73 Pontiac... but I'll put them in the GM Merchandise Lookout forum...

My uncle just factory ordered up a brand new '11 F-350 4x4 King Ranch Crew Cab Diesel with every single option (Red/Tan two tone exterior), MSRP of 79'000$ CAD. This is just a year after my aunt ordered and received a new Red with Red and Black leather 2010 Fusion Sport 3.5L AWD with all the options but NAV.

[caddycruiser]

M6 convertible at a red light, with PA tags, on my way home Friday. HOT.

Also this classic 'Burban of sorts, I see everyday, but never thought to snap until Friday.

And this new black Mustang 'vert, in just the right trim...

Had to get out of the house & go SOMEWHERE late yesterday afternoon, so drove to Salisbury and the new Subaru dealer inhabiting what used to be our only lower Delmarva Saturn store.

Of course, checked out the Outbacks. One color & trim in particular really caught my eye...yes, I said that...an '11 Carmel Bronze Outback Limited.

The salesguy, a few minutes from close, didn't seem to know why I liked it so much either, but I just do. An actual color. And a car I'm a huge fan of...

Saw silver and white '11 Regals today...pretty sharp.

[Intrepidation]

My friend's Camaro 2LT RS parked in our driveway today. Doesn't get much cooler than that.

Well, at least until his exhaust arrives and we install it.

we were at the georgia aquarium. i guess they were on their summer vacation... heheh had too.

[the_yellow_dart]

A Mitsubishi MiEV - in the parking lot at a Home Depot. Was really confused at first because I thought it was a Tata Nano...

MiEV

Nano

This thing is only on sale in Japan so far, AFAIK. It had regular plates on it though. It was right-hand-drive, so somebody probably imported this thing themselves.

[thedriver]

Saw a 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee this morning, Limited edition.

[loki]

so... going to my new job's orientation today...30 miles south or so, I saw an old econoline(i think) made into a crewcab truck, basically, and on the way home say a blazer with a conversion van roof extension on top of it.

Black Alfa Romeo Giulietta

Hey fellas, there is a July thread open. "JU LIE!" you say? Nope, I am serious.
