Woohoo.

Looks like maybe in Palm Beach trim

Pontiac Montana mini-van which looks really mini compared to today's mini-vans. It looked to be in incredible condition.

2006-2010 Honda Civic with wide tires on the rear end.

Probably to prevent lift-off oversteer, which is terribly easy to induce in these cars. Ask me how I know.

But yeah, kinda ridiculous

Very early Volvo 444 in Smiths Falls on Saturday - brought over from Sweden.

Very cool

My neighbour added an 8th vehicle to his collection:

Not his car in the pic, but it's also without the white stripes, and painted Rosso Scuderia instead of Rosso Corso. And different alloys. I'm promised a ride once I'm better from my hernia surgery!

Is it a CS or not? If so then the CS wheels are part of what makes it such a great car.

Super jealous if it's a CS, less jealous if it isn't.

^^ It's the real thing alright, with Lexan windows and carbon-fiber interior. But I'm pretty sure it's not wearing the signature Challenge wheels - I'll double-check next time I see it out of the garage.

The car is from the US, so ahead of Safety he had to drive it to a Ferrari indy in town, in the rain

to get DRL's installed. Oem parts for 60$!! This specific F1 gearbox turned out to be a female dog in traffic, with lots of jerking. He refined his technique to use neutral as much as possible when stop n' go! But he claims the CS is more comfortable than his E46 M3, although it's so low he has to be very careful with driveways and such.

First time I've seen one of these: Toyota Estima Hybrid in, what I'm assuming was, Light Purple Mica Metallic.

Cool van! The replacement for the Previa I imagine. Nowhere near as quirky but still neat. I see plenty of JDM stuff here in BC.

I should have mentioned those are internet pictures. I saw the Estima on Portage Ave at Moray St but didn't have time to grab a pic.

Got it.

Saw my first Bronco Sunday. Parked next to me at IKEA.

Same colours, Badlands trim. Owner said they've had it for about three weeks and they love it so far.

I thought it looked great. Really eye catching.

That’s a photo of a Bronco Sport.

With the little Badlands decal on the door. That's what I saw: Bronco Sport Badlands.

Memory was wrong - saw the CS again and it does have the proper CS alloys on it. Funny how restrained and smooth this car looks next to today's exotics. Doesn't look like a time traveller out of a kill'em all videogame.
