Car-spotting thread

Zandvoort Blue. Not my cup of tea. Neither is BMW’s more recent design direction. The OG M2 that @Carson had was the last good looking M car.

Agreed. My F87 was a better looking car than these G87 models. Although the new interior is a step up (but a bit digital). People agree. My car was 53, I drove it 3.5 years, 17K miles, and sold for 43. They still are about 40K on the used market.
 
haven’t been down this road in a while
It’s actually pretty close to the horse farm where that Netflix special documentary is about. Seem they must have some car repair or reseller leasing space now. Random assortment but the vette is what caught my eye.

This might be better in the frown thread but since it’s car related will drop it here.

So I’ve been searching for a new CPO car and after driving a bunch of different 2 row SUVs have settled on a 21-23 Santa Fe Limited 2.5T as my preference.

Found this one online and been going back and forth negotiating via phone/email/text. I couldn’t figure out why this one was starting a bit Lower price than most since it looked clean and has low miles. That was until I asked for new pictures of it before put a deposit and I drove 1.5 hours to see it.

So while the carfax is clean, clearly this vehicle hit something because the whole
Grill is cracked and missing a piece at the bottom. The problem is they photoshopped it on the web site. And the sales manager sent me the updated pictures guess she didn’t look at them before she sent them. Needless to say not buying this one. Sigh.

This 1975 Plymouth Fury caught my eye while sitting outside a restaurant in Escalante Utah. I assumed it was some local but as I walked back to the restaurant this kid said he saw me looking at his car and asked if it was a '75 and he was a bit surprised I even knew what the car was. Turns out he got it with 40k and it now has 88k and was driving it across the country. When I turned 17 my dad inherited a '76 from my great grandmother that had 4k on it, spent my senior year driving way too many kids in that car around to punk shows.
