Went to Montréal Auto show todayhttp://www.salonautomontreal.com/en/

I took some pictures of this old Honda Civic. Unbelievable how big they became over the years compare to those (and previous) ones...

Where is Barrie to go on a rant about what a rust bucket was  :rofl:

With the width at the back you would probably get a ticket every time you parked it in England as it would be over the line in the parking space.

In the Costco parking lot, a jacked-up Miata, white with black fender flares and off-road tires  :o

Did not appear to be mounted on a truck frame or anything, clear air underneath.

My wife's old Mini Cooper S license plate was JAG 007. Was walking downtown today and saw an older Mini Clubman and it had JAG 008. I'm guessing they were both sold on or around the same day when new.

Spotted at the hotel: rust-free (not dent-free) Geo and a Javelin.

I should start buying 15+ year-old compact trucks here in Arizona and ship them to Canada.  It's amazing how many there are.

I dig Javelins! Muscle cars with that unique AMC twist :)

Brown Bentley convertible driving in the snow on Saturday, soft top up of course.
The road was so slippery I was worried about my CX-5 - and here is this guy putting a six figure car at risk!
