Today I saw one of the new Turbo Carrera Porsches.
What baffled me most of all was how bloody bad it sounded. It was like they tried to keep the classic flat six Porsche sound, then the turbo hiss comes along and it all ends up sounding like a lorry.
Probably better to stick with a Cayman GTS...

Honestly it is weird that the 718 gets a flat 6 with the GTS but the 911s won't get a naturally aspirated flat 6 unless you go GT3.

Saw a Fisker Karma today.
I think it's super sketch to drive a car with unique body panels and no dealership support. Kudos to the 2 people keeping this car running.
Edit- I just saw the personalized plate. I think this is a super fan that'll keep this car running for as long as possible.

It looks luxurious, I like how the two-tone wheels added accent to this car. I've seen a lot of rims with the same design at 4wheelonline, and I wonder what brand it is.

Put the Charger Patrol and the C8 Corvette in this post. Maxed out on the size limits.

Someone in my neighbourhood has bought a Chevy HHR, what a oddball car. Another rare sight was Ford E-series van, first one i have ever seen.

I got excited thinking that I saw a Nissan Leopard (the early one) in Western Massachusetts of all places... Turns out it was a Dodge Mirada; a very [i]interesting[/i] and unexpected doppelganger.

There's been a smattering of JDM goodness trickling in now that a lot of cool cars are past the 25 year import law. I've seen a bunch of kei trucks and Nissan Presidents running around NYC.
I really wasn't trying to find them, but I happened to come across 2 RUFs while I was in Japan. Haven't really seen any in NYC and when I wasn't looking for them I see 2 RUFs. Go figure. It's crazy how rich some people in Japan really are.
I'd upload more but some of the file sizes are ginormous.

Very fresh.
I saw the newest GT2RS when I was going to an event yesterday. Wild. They look somewhat innocuous.

Went back to the autoshow after the coronavirus times. Lots of brands sat it out (Honda, BMW, VW, MB). These things are dying slowly. Was very busy though.
Cobble Beach (like an off-brand Canadian versino of pebble beach) had some representation there; a Scaglietti TdF, Bentley Speed 6, Alfa 6C, Stutz, Mustang GT 500 KR, a Countach. Some kinda interesting stuff you don't see too often, especially in Canada. Ferrari Classiche had a 288 which I don't think I had seen before, next to an F40 and an Enzo.
Some other things of note, a Pre-A 356, and a Zagato 356. A magazine had a display with a CGT, 918, P1, and LaFerrari which was cool. I think there was an SLR elsewhere so you had what my buddy's called the Trifecta (Enzo, CGT, SLR) and the Trinity (per Top Gear). That's pretty cool. Most of the new cars were boring interiors all very similar. I sit inside a lot less and go through he show a lot faster now.
