Oh man that Starion makes me feel funny in the pants.
And that Jag has to be one of my favourite pre '92 Australian touring cars.

Oh and I could be wrong but I think that #30 Peter Jackson DR30 is for sale. If it's not that car it's it's sister car. I saw it in last months Unique Cars mag.

Not quite "nostalgic" yet, but it's got the kyusha look nailed... 8)

Also note the vintage chrome mirrors. Nice touch. :tu:

And in case you think it can't possibly be a daily driver at this height... :P

I don't doubt that Miata is a DD, they just have to drive less than 30mph nearly all the time.
I understand the look but the old fart I am can't help but think how impractical that is to drive on the crappy bumpy pot-hole filled streets around DFW.
I guess I already had my fun with losing fillings in my husband's Teg, always worrying about the damn front lip ripping off at every single driveway, railroad track etc. to ever want to fool with a stupid low car again.

Thankfully, I'm not done having my fun yet. 8)

But that seriously could be an inch higher and I'd be okay. :P

Spotted this on Woodville Rd in Sydney with "Make an offer" in the window.

Sorry, couldn't get a better shot

Nope- it's a different car. This one ain't for sale.

I saw this at a small repair shop in south Seattle on Saturday. It's the first time I've ever seen a Mazda Cosmo in the flesh. Just how many of these are there in the US?

Unwashed, RHD? Not many! Some more coupe:

... and an antithesis, someone bought a taxi-pack Crown volunarily as a daily runner perhaps, weird even for Japan. Though the Belarus embassy has one, this carries no diplomatic plates:

Sorry, but no pic this time to substantiate my sighting as it was night & I was driving :oops: .
But maybe someone can verify that I wasn't hallucinating.

Driving on Jamboree near Diamond Jamboree in Irvine, CA Friday night and heard, then spotted a kei car. Only thing I could read was "RSR" and when I tried to ID it online I came up with a Suzuki Alto Works RSR. It was definately RHD.
Anyone seen or know this car?

Sharp-eyed viewers might notice the Area 86 rebranding... Neko.
