That’s what’s up. I’ll tell you what, Australia has hella bad ass whips that I will probably never ever see in my life.

The rest of the world as well. There’s so many dope ass vehicles that never made it over here smh.

Saw this today parked outside my office. A 1931 Ford Model A Tudor painted up for the University of North Texas spirit squad.

What is it?

That there is a Vinfast VF9. Haven’t heard much about the VF9 but I know the VF8 got eaten alive in the press when it originally came out stateside, but they’ve apparently fixed most of the issues immediately.

That’s not terribly surprising. Chevy only sold about 20 thousand total Corvair pickups, 65% of which were the introductory '61 models. They’re a pretty rare thing, which is bit of a shame, these things are pretty neat.

I could see that spending a lot of time hauling big trailers. Usually where I see shortbed duallys myself.

A picture like this has to be shot in Sweden. Yes, there is a slow moving vehicle triangle on the gold 740 too.

Just last week, I was lucky to find no less than four supercars in one day, parked at or near the local mall:

First up was this Shark Blue 992.1 GTS - strictly speaking this is not a true supercar, more of a junior one, but its performance is comparable to one from a few decades ago.

Next was this Carbon Black McLaren (MP4-)12C - this one had a snazzy set of ADV.1 aftermarket wheels that really filled its arches.

The third one was this Bianco Monocerus Murcielago LP 640 - I haven’t seen any of them in over a decade, and unlike the other three, it was the only one with a naturally aspirated engine (specifically, a V12).

Last but not least, and the only hybrid among them, was this Rosso Scuderia 296 GTB - proof that the future of the breed is not as bleak as I thought.

All of them are amazing machines in their own right, but only the LP 640 gave me a sense of awe and intimidation - of the kind that really gives you goosebumps - the moment I looked at it.

And even in white, it somehow looked so right, like a great white shark rising from the depths:

If its interior were also white (which the corresponding picture doesn’t show), it would have been even more reminiscent of a 21st-century equivalent of the Countach from The Wolf of Wall Street:

Immediately after returning home, I decided to remind myself of what we’d lost in the name of pace and progress, and soon came to the conclusion that while the future of the supercar (and hypercar) is in safe hands, there will never be anything quite like the analog heroes of the '80s, '90s, and '00s, which is why all performance cars (including supercars and hypercars) from those eras are having their time in the sun and becoming hot property for collectors - if they haven’t already.

Another car largely uninteresting for americans I guess. But once upon a time the Valiant was Sweden’s top selling US car and also our most common police cruiser. Now it is a rare sight so always fun to see one that doesn’t look like it is totally toast…

The sound of the starter and the slant six is something special indeed :rofl:

(sorry for extremely crappy mobile camera quality, the lens looks like if I have grinded concrete with it by now I guess)

I had to speed up to get this picture, seen its boxy rear from pretty far away. I beeped and gave him a thumbs up as i passed him. I hope he didnt think i was flicking him off for going to slow.

This was a unicorn sighting.

Peugeot 505 wagon :sunglasses: I have started to appreciate them a lot lately, maybe it is childhood nostalgia that kicks in. They were everywhere back then, now you never see them.
