The Unicorn sighting thread.

In reply to GameboyRMH :

Where are you that you see mini-pickups?

Not a unicorn...but I saw this the other day at the taco shop.  You can drive on many of the beaches here in NE FL, so this is cleary someones beach cart.   Rear visibilty can't be great with the cargo basket on the trunk, but that basket should hold your beach chairs, etc.

Barbados. American-size pickups are too big to be practical on these roads, and too thirsty to be practical with these gas prices!

While a seventh generation Buick Rivera in drivable condition is pretty much a unicorn these days, this one showed up at my Lowe's one morning. I was curious about the stickers. Once I looked it up on the internet I wish I had stuck around to talk to the owner. Never seen again.

I'm probably cheating because these 3 were not technically in the wild - they were at a car show I went to on Sunday:

"Don't do the crime if you can't do the time."

Before the Pantera there was the Mangusta. Only 401 made, an estimated 300+ still alive.

Early 90's Subaru Kei Van - the Sambar(?)

On I78 returning from a 230 mile morning shop run, almost home I spotted these 3 in time to get the camera out. 2 Fords and a Chevy pickup from about 1935

Maybe not a unicorn but two in one place is absolutely unusual. One had Colorado plates and the other Kentucky.

I drive past this every day on my way to drop off the 2 year old at preschool. Doesn't move much, but it sure looks nice. 

I frequently drive past a house that has what I've often quickly waved off as just a 1st gen Geo Metro that hasn't moved in a long time sitting in it's yard. Recently, due to some construction, the traffic on that road was close to a stand still. This gave me some time to study the car a little more, where I discovered it wasn't a Geo at all... It's a Suzuki Swift. On top of that, it's a GTi or GT. A look at the history on Google streetview shows that it's been sitting in the same spot since at least 2008. I don't need anymore cars, but I'm thinking about knocking on the door and inquiring about it..

Saw a black Ferrari GTC4Lusso on the 401 yesterday, just like this one:

Then this morning I saw a late-60s Dodge A100 COE pickup and a Corvair driving together near GM's Oshawa plant.

Edit: I think I fixed it ^

Are my pics showing??? Or is it my stupid phone?

Not seeing any pics in your previous post.

There's a guy in Tucson has a yellow one, but with distinctly modern side mirrors on the door frame. 

He had issues with the tiny side mirrors, was at the bone yard one day, sees the side mirrors from a late model Ranger or Explorer might fit the door frames on the Mangusta.

Total GRM win on that...

Really cool guy. 

Wakefield, NH.  On the morning of 27th, outside Lenos restraunt, must have been getting breakfast. 

Toyota Hiace on I65 South in Kentucky can't be normal.

This is absolutely a unicorn this deep into road salt country:

Also in Oshawa today, saw a Mk4 Supra and an FC RX7.

Sighted at SOFR.

S60R!

With an Atacama interior and manual transmission!

This guy lives nearby:

Taken in the same plaza where I got a pic of the Samurai:

The custom "TOYSUZU" badge suggests it has some kind of Isuzu engine swapped in. It's a diesel, but the engine sound most resembles a crossplane V8.

Did you move to the states? More US cars than I’d expect in those pics

In reply to chandler :

Last few pics were taken in Ontario. Moving up here later in the year.
