Saw a DeLorean in person for the first time in my life today; they really are just bare metal. I at least thought it would have been treated somehow. must be a pain in the ass to clean.

WOW, what a blind spot on that rear pillar of the Acura and I see they continue their bland, dull look on the outside.

Today saw a Envoy in the park and ride lot. White.

Bought our new puppy in Windsor, NJ on Sunday. After picking up the puppy I took a drive over to Perrine Buick-GMC (and Saab still, as he has a ton of Saab cars on the lot). Took numerous pictures of Sierras, but these two caught my eye (too bad I didn't win the Mega Millions lottery Friday night):

2012 GMC Sierra 2500HD Crew Cab 4wd's in Stealth Gray Metallic:

New black 2013 Lincoln MKS, slightly dirty, PA tagged. Just cruising down the street. The new grille made me notice it, then as it passed...eh, same ole, same ole.

On a rough street in west Philly a little before that, a black Isuzu Ascender XL...the Isuzu Envoy with Trailblazer wheels, etc. Been a while.

A couple of days ago, 2013 Taurus in white. Can't recall if it was a SHO or not, as I was only barely paying attention.

Also, today I saw a Mitsubishi Raider for the first time ever in life.

That Nova is seriously clean, but I've got to complain about how much it looks like spring out there while I had to shovel my driveway yesterday.

Saw 3 nice oldies this morning out on a sunny Saturday---two convertibles, tops down--a white on white '75-76 Eldorado, a yellow w/ white interior '73 Olds 88. Also saw a white '65 Mercury Monterey 4dr ht w/ dog dish hubcaps, first I've ever seen of that year/bodystyle, I think. All very clean shape.

Veloster in black. Best color I've seen on this car. The wild colors are just too trendy. Driven by a guy who looked around my age.

Big silver Equus cruising down the street in south Philly. Older couple inside, going slowly.

Big stately car but nondescript, every once in a while I see one.

Same here, just before following the Equus. I really, really like the look, size and package of the Veloster. Most colors except for red, green, etc. also look good.

Saw on Easter morning a 1981 white Cadillac Eldorado with a blue vinyl top. It was the V8-6-4 that gave away its age. It looks like it was in top condition. Two hours later, it was gone :( .

The guy I work with that I've posted a picture of his red '71 Caddy has brought his '61 Caddy convertible to work today. A crappy cell phone camera shot from his third floor office, for your enjoyment :P

Bright blue new Equinox, re-painted (definitely not just a wrap), with a construction company logo. Interesting move. Must be their specific color.
