Or an MG.

EDIT - Actually, Im fairly certain its an MG TF. Look at the fenders and the door pulls. The MG has suicide doors.

Morgan Plus 8



MG TF




Very similar cars though, especially the rear end.

These were taken on Michigan Ave. in Chicago (shocker, I know). Pardon the graininess, I cropped them from iPhone 4 photos because I shot from pretty far away (and I'll never use digital zoom).







Maybe not as exotic as the others, but I still rarely see them. Super grainy because I was very far away:

Lamborghini FTW. You really can't go wrong with them. Even the LM002 is fucking badass.

So I was at the beach bodysurfing Sunday morning with my friend and saw the local VW club doing a cruise as I was towelling off.



Then I was distracted by the Asian bikini model doing a photoshoot.



Then I was distracted by the 4 honeys in this pickup truck, they looked legal, at least from the back LOL.



Gotta love the beach

I'm in a relationship so I don't think my girlfriend would be too fond of me rolling around with a camera trying to find girls to fuck and then dump on the side of the road.

But, yes, I would like a VW Bus.

That's fucked up but funny.

If I could afford to, I would buy a Bus and make that my project vehicle instead of the TL. TL would stay my DD while the Bus would be in the garage.

VW Buses are awesome. Especially with Suby boxer 4s in them.

I wish I could make that happen for myself. I think it would be a blast.

Same ZR1 I posted a few weeks ago. The exhaust note is insane. Makes my dad's Z06 sound like an Impala.

Great to look at. Two problems for me, no power and no A/C. Otherwise I woulda bought one years ago. I would have to get out and push it up our hills. Oh, really unsafe too.

Agreed. At least over in California A/C isn't a total necessity. Here with the humidity and such, you'll die without it. I would love one for a weekend cruiser though.

^Neither have I.

Both my dad and I like the CRZ but it's very :ghey: since it's a hybrid. Would it be possible to drop the Civic Si engine in one?

The VW's are awesome!

I was at a Honda dealer a couple weeks ago, the CR-Z is actually pretty sweet in person.

Yes I know, no pics but I saw a Chevy Volt here in Toronto last week, east end. FTR GM has a factory about an hour east of Toronto in Oshawa, maybe it was doing some final testing? IIRC those things are due to be released in November. It was kinda cool, but its only eye-catching feature was the bright white paint. Rest of the car wasn't particularly attention-grabbing.
