That 850 Spyder is CUTE!!!  Crappy wheel covers though...  There are a number of period and model appropriate rim and wheel/wheelcover options available...
I'd rather be car-poor than house-poor...

horrific crash that could have been totally prevented if the person in the Lexus was...you know...looking where they were DRIVING THEIR DAMN CAR.

Cars need to be harder to drive so people concentrate on driving them, not on their super computer with an entertainment system onboard, or their phones, etc.
If driving an Alfa does not restore vitality to your soul, then just pass the hospital and park at the morgue to save everyone time.

Now drives a Jaaaaaaag...and thus will not pay for anything during an outing...but it is OK, because....I drive a Jaaaaaag.

Yup!  A friend of mine lives in a TO neighbourhood where there are a lot of people with Polish ancestry.  Whenever they have their annual festival there are a number of 126ps, 125ps, and Polonezes on display.

Morning coffee run in Kitsilano and I spotted this janky old Lexus with Alberta plates. No AWD or "F-SPORT!" decals or even a sunroof, so whatever it is it must be a base model. Still nice tho.

What's more, not two minutes earlier I spotted a 997.1 GT3 tailing a Carrera GT, both silver, cruising down Cornwall Ave.

I think a higher power is trying to tell me that 1) I need a V10 in my life and 2) I will never afford a home in Vancouver ;D

Kia Stinger GT.  I couldn't help but think it looked like a panda.  I would not buy one in white.

Saw the new Peugeot 508 in Dijon, in black. Between the colour, tinted rear windows (standard), and the black/red LED taillights, gotta say it's the best-looking midsize sedan on the market today.

^^ nice

Came across this brand new 2018 Mustang PP1. Looks and sounds really good. Way better than in these pictures. Easy to get lost in track times and the like but what a nice street car. Has the same presence as the GT350 imo.





These pics just make me happy that both of these awesome machines exist in this day and age.  Enjoy life, folks, ya never know when the hybrids will take over!  :)
