The Unicorn sighting thread.

We have a BMW M1 that drives around town here.

Suzuki Equator pick up. I spotted it in the parking lot of a horse show today. Cool looking little truck.

I saw a Toyota Mirai today. I didn't even know it was a thing. I didn't know we had enough Hydrogen infrastructure anywhere to run a fuel cell vehicle. 

There isn't, outside of a few places in California:

Was driving to get some stuff in Brookings, Oregon and saw this... very, very clean and had great paint.  Nevada plates I think.

Unimog fire truck- Anchorage 

I saw a right hand drive Evo V at the gas station today.

Driving thru Detroit tonight I saw my first car company road test car (mule?). I geeked out a bit -- pretty excited 

Early Corolla

While leaving the house to go work on the RX-7, my laptop bag strap finally broke.  Whee, looks like I get to brave the shopping traffic and go to Micro Center on the complete opposite side of the city.

When I got out, I noted that my car apparently underwent mitosis.

The owner saw me taking pictures and ran up for a chat. He'd never seen another S60R in the wild either.

This was kind of an interesting thing to happen on just about the one year anniversary of owning this car.

I seem to live in Unicorn World, the Lehigh valley of PA. This thread is one of the main reasons I signed up to post, as I will submit many sightings, starting with my near neighbor's daily driver. It is outside always, and runs a turbo sucking through a progressive converted Weber DCOE.....

Some unicorns are best left hidden in the forest.

Yes sir 

I passed a Nissan X Trail on the way to Detroit today, it’s late maybe that was yesterday.  We’re these sold in the USA.

That's like it would be fun to parallel park.

In reply to sachilles :

I saw him trying, but as you see, he is quite a bit OFF from the curb :p

Just out for a some Christmas shopping in your DeSoto, in Michigan, in December!

That’s not a unicorn!

it is in Sicily.

So my next door neighbor comes over and asks me if I'll help him with an old station wagon he's had in garage for years. Says it has 4 flat tires but it runs. I take the air tank over and the car's been buried with junk he's taking off it and from around it enough so I can squeeze in to fill the tires. None of the tires will hold air so I tell him no dice and I'll have to drag it out of the garage with my truck since there isn't enough space to work safely in garage to remove all wheels. Also tell him there's a high likelihood that he'll have to put 4 tires on it.

I then tell him based on the smashed rear, door gaps,  buckled roof, no brakes, and general junky appearance he should just call one of the "we buy junk cars" guys and have it hauled away.

He says "NO! IT RUN GOOD!" and explains that HE'S EXPORTING IT! 

I'm looking at it dumbfounded because I wouldn't spend 10 minutes making a decision and would have called the junk hauler years ago! Just to get the garage space back. Never mind me doubting that it might actually start.

Then I realized I'd never even knew this car existed and had certainly never seen one knowingly.

1980 Nissan wagon.......... Diesel!       Am I wrong or is it probably the last one that hasn't returned to the earth or been recycled?

AND, it fired right up with a new battery!

These are pretty rare these days.  IIRC, the crank out of one of these in an L28 makes a 3.0l... used to be a popular mod for Z cars.

Total dog stock... my Sis and BIL had one back in the day.

Mint condition dodge daytona in parking garage in dover nh. Have not seen one of these on the road since selling mine 17 years ago.
