The Sightings Thread

I feel like I might have shared this one before–or at least seen it before. Nicely configured E36 sedan spied in the media/staff parking lot at Mecum’s Kissimmee sale.

WUT?!?!

They made an SVT Contour???

Also- the Mitsubishi/Dodge DSM era was full of fun, quirky stuff like that. Starions, Conquests, Eclipses, Talons, Lasers, Rampages... It's a long list of automotive shenanigans.

In reply to Recon1342 :

Yup, they made an SVT Contour. We had one as a press loaner back in the day–manual box and everything. 

And saw a pre-runner F150 on I-4 yesterday.

Npre-r

And also a stanced Nissan 350Z. Check it out, though, I got the cap sitting on the highway in the shot.

The NV3500 was a 4x4 conversion

My daughter liked the color, I generally liked the look, so we snapped a pic. We were on our way up to the next county to toss some spent tires at their free collection site.

Clean white ND Miata cruising up I-95. 

Monte Carlo aero back, there was also a Pontiac Grand Prix version. The last of the NASCAR special production cars in the vein of the Charger Daytona and Torino Talladega.

Saw a trailer with 6 Ineos Grenadier's heading towards ATL on I-75N

I was going the other way and they appeared right over the hill, so couldn't snap a pic. But there was a blue one just like this!

Saw a Changan Alsvin today on my commute. Seemed to be a 2018ish one based on picture's and have American plates. Not sure how that's possible or why someone would want to do that but oh well.

So I took a different way home yesterday, and wouldn't you know it, I saw ANOTHER Grenadier in this EXACT color getting window tint!!

Crazy coincidence or are they really that popular now?!

I thought this was yet another EV I'd never heard of. Nope. It's a Dodge Hornet. Weird thing is, I couldn't find any Dodge branding on it. It's like Comcast rebranding as Xfinity??

Now this is a Hornet (seen recently at Seattle's Greenwood Car Show):

(I always hear Paul Newman's voice in my head when I see these...)

Does this count? Lol

Pretty sure that's an F15

In reply to Recon1342 :

So, both cars were on the same property -- whoever owns them is one of us. 😁

Sales pays well, I guess.

In reply to Hoppps :

Yes, definitely an F15.   Could be a Mig-25, but I highly doubt it! 

Of note, if you are in Oregon, that might even be the first operational squadron of F-15X Eagle II's. 

No photo because driving, but yesterday I saw an EP3 Civic Si as well as a slammed RSX. It was 2002 all over again. 

Sunday’s after-autocross lunch. 

Took a while to open phone...

SVT x2. BOGO? 

In reply to grover :

Mosler Consulier?

Spotted these 2 in a driveway, the full size Delica truck is not something I've seen, plenty of keis, but not a full size. He also had a Prado and JDM 80 Series.

The other day, I passed a Rolls-Royce Cullinan–yes, the brand’s giant SUV.

Photo grabbed from Wikipedia:

So that’s a $300,000 or $400,000 SUV spotted around the corner from us. It was a bit, um, something. 

VW SUV lowered to "car" ride height is pretty cool. Like a station wagon that Dig Dug got two pumps into but didn't explode. I wonder if it drives any more "car like"
