Topic: Interesting things seen on the way to work thread

My Ford dealer neighbor has been bringing home a string of Bronco Sports and Mach-e's recently, but last evening he came home with a Big Bronco, 4-door in yellow with black roof. First one seen in the wild!

Ahem, that would be Cyber Orange.

I thought all Broncos were the same size 

No, there is the proper Bronco, and there is the Escape in butch drag Sport.

There seem to be one or two out front of all the local dealerships now, but still a little while before they hit press fleets here I'm told.

I've seen one regular Bronco out and about as well as several Sports. The Sports look quite under tired tread wise.

Well looksie what I just ran into on my morning coffee run…

Its the Canadian press car just being dropped of by Dan from autotrader...we had a nice chat.

You just loitering around outside Porsche's distribution centre there or what? 

I hide in the bushes to see if I can catch a glimpse of anything from interesting…that’s sane right?

Oh, of course! 

We could grab a coffee some time when I'm doing a drop off or pick up and talk about FGCs.

A neighbour from further down the street was walking his dog past my house, and since I was outside he stopped and asked: "Sorry for being curious, but why do you change cars so often?"

"Because I can't trade-in my wife."

Maybe we should move this topic to the "Get Togethers" thread?  Seems a few of us from the area might be overdue for a car-talkin' catch up of some sort.

Just dropped my youngest off at his Mom's place, and on my way home I passed a Mustang GT-California Special convertible... was pretty sharp & had a nice little rumble going on as well... looked like this one... guessing 2009.

My friend finally got his Z4.  Last time I talked to him was in early spring and he was telling me he was trying to get one then but kept getting the run around from different dealers.  He ended up ordering it from a dealer in Quebec City because the sales lady there was great to deal with.  He wanted this exact spec, and said most dealers were giving him the run around, so he tried several dealers until he could find someone he could work with.  Apparently this is a discontinued colour so it was a bit of a wrangle to have it ordered.  Didn`t get much chance to talk with him but he said he`s completely satisfied with the performance, emphatically so. 

Glad for him, he worked hard for it!

Nice Supra!

Nice!  They're fantastic to drive.  I've seen a dozen McLarens this year out and about here in the GTA, but only one new Z4 -- their rarity is very appealing.

Yeah, can't wait to take it for a spin.  I don't usually like driving other people's cars but I'll make an exception in this case. 

Funny, we didn't have much time to talk but as I was leaving he shouted over to me that we will have to do a gtg with the roadsters.  He doesn't know yet that i sold mine and I didn't get a chance to tell him.

Somebody on my street got a new 2-Series "4-door coupe" - it does look a bit like a KIA Forte  But, actually, the KIA looks better.

Rare, short-lived badge-engineered SUV: Chrylser Aspen, with the dents, peeling paint and rust from a hard-lived life.

I can't believe anybody buys those.  I've only seen one around town.  It's horrid.
