like heli... this one was a bit sad as well!

on my drive, i tend to see this bentley all painted up with one of those "house of kolor" chameleon style things... as horrendous as it is, i still would smile... pure opulence... sure it probably had one of the best paint jobs in the business to start, but this guy wanted it to stand out...

well, today in the same area, i saw a new tesla with the same paint... i'm guessing he retired the bentley. while the tesla is a nice car, i just can't put it in the same category as the bentley...

I used to see a rainbow-coloured Model S all the time when I lived in Toronto... he must be... happy.

I saw a Dodge Dart yesterday...I think it is only about the third or fourth I have ever seen. Not a good seller around here!

There are a couple in my neighborhood. 
This is same neighborhood with a couple of Juke's as well, so it is a bit weird around here.   ;D

There a few around here. My sister inlaw bought one - with a manual transmission even. Seems to be treating her well thus far.

It was really cold here today and on the way home I saw a guy walking down the sidewalk wearing army fatigues, a ball cap, and one of those skull face masks.  It looked like a Halloween costume!  :rofl:

I only mention this because the first thing I see when I logged on to this site was a banner ad for the same type of masks.  Kinda bizarre, or maybe it's just because I had a really long day.  I started work at 1AM... :P

Rolling down the highway in my TDI, I noticed a Prius in the adjacent lane with the plate 'CUT CO2'.

They make good looking land speed record cars.

A black base Giulia. It looked fantastic, despite the ugly offset front plate.

I actually saw a group of motorcyclists. Zero helmets. Crazy people outside these days.

I'd put an Italy plate on it for the complete effect.
