That's awesome. Were they being driven? I've seen various models parked at shows or whatever, but never while they were driving.

Sunbirds did come as wagons: and with half-lidded headlights: But I haven't been able to find a picture of a car with both. Was it possibly some other J-body variant?
I worked at a Pontiac dealership for a moment in 1988. I don't think that you could get the covered lights on the wagon.

Because nobody who is driving one of those in 2014 could be an enthusiast who would put the lidded nose on a wagon...

Didn't get a pic but I saw what appeared to be a well used E28 M5 yesterday. One of those times I wish I was Richard Rawlings with a pocket full of cash. "I want your car, here's $xxxx, I'll drive you home."

My mom's first car was an A35, one of the first times she met my dad it was to help come over and fix something on it. It could be said I owe my existence to an A35, although most definitely the back seat of one!! Hers was a 4 door if you can believe they made them that way.

My parents owned one throughout my childhood, it sat in the driveway all the way through Grammar School. I used to sit in it every single day just waiting for when it would be mine. Had plans (as best an eight year old CAN have plans) to turn it into a Gasser like the ones in my father's car magazines.

Never happened, but now I have another chance . . . got a real soft spot for this car, it's the very same make/model/color/year as the one that I sat in for so very long.

I found a 1.0L ecoboost fiesta that had alloys, a nice sync setup, ST seats, etc. All kinds of options that technically don't exist on the SE/1.0L ecoboost option list. It was sold before I could get my hands on it. http://www.washingtonford.com/used/Ford/2014-Ford-Fiesta-120e413c0a0a00646ae8ea1a3fa31465.htm

That's the dealer where I bought my wife's Flex.

They get a bunch of used Ford company cars (there were about 20 different 2013 model ex-Ford owned cars for sale used when I went in Sept2013). Maybe it was some odd combination that an employee spec'd and they ended up with?

It's a Buzz Bomb. Built by P.D. Busby in the 40s and 50s. Built in Indianapolis. Fiberglass body, Ford running gear. This one had the Ford 60 Flathead.

I saw a Pontiac G3 this morning on the way to work. Its basically the Chevy Aveo with a Pontiac badge. Guess they didn't sell too many of them.

Could someone PLEASE re-post a picture of that lameassed lazy-eyed Pontiac one more time?

I just don't think that five posts in just two pages is really enough for all of us. I could use another three or four reposts of the same damned crap box for sure. Betcha everyone else feels the exact same . . . it's just SO interesting looking, ya know?

Saw a Land Rover Defender 90 hardtop today. He has a child seat strapped to one of the rear jump seats. Not sure how the seats are rated in a side facing position.

Not a unicorn, but I thought this was cool. The sun and traffic kept me from taking a better picture, but ever gen z was there plus the Supra.

Every school day I see a stock white mk2 supra driving, I also saw a propane powered p71 the other day I knew they existed just never seen one (the have something like 1200cc injectors). Most the cool rare stuff I see is at the junkyard sadly.. I saw a clean audi v8 in white pearl with matching wheels, a Maserati biturbo and a manual e34 535i (uncommon for that motor to have a manual). I also saw two 850i, two z3m coupes along with a 90s brabus s600 in the same junkyard
