A few odds and ends

Just noticed how odd that curved rear wheel arch looks compared to the mostly angular body. I wonder why they only changed that.

I came across a car show a couple weeks ago, and here are a few of the more unique cars I saw.

Oldsmobile Vista Cruiser

Late 20s/early 30s Ford Model A wagon with a wood body.

BMW 850i

1926 Franklin 11-A Sport Touring

The sunroof?

Main thing I’d focus on is the 5L V12 hiding in there

Well, that’s because they focus on sedans and recently in SUVs, not in sports cars :stuck_out_tongue: BMW is in the business for make money, so they squish out all their designs and models, every niche they can find they make a model for that (even tho is just a redesign of an existing model).

[quote=“PottoGadd, post:25, topic:6170”] Their cars also look very boring and way too similar […] far from the best German manufacturer nowadays.

Very similar german cars? :joy: Have you heard about Porsche? They’ve been making the same car for over 40 years, sure, they tried front engine a few years ago, but they went back to design the same car.
And the current Mercedes line-up is pretty similar as well, and you can say pretty much the same about Audi (with glorified [in a good way] VW models). That said, Mercedes and Audi do offer proper sports cars.

About overprice, at least here in my country, BMW is cheaper than mercedes, porsche and audi, I guess VW is the only german car manufacturer with “low” prices.

Just got a new camera here some test images
