New cars sighting
On the way down rt 17 South today, I spotted a few new cars.
First I saw a M35/45 (think it was either a silver or charcoal color), from far away it looked like the '05 Altimas, with the black headlights. The rear end was actually pretty ugly, the tailights look even bigger in person than in the pictures. The car wasn't as nice as I thought it would be. As it passed by it reminded me of the shape of the new Avalon, which I also saw later.
Then I saw a '06 A4 in the blue color. Only got a glimpse of it, but it didn't look as nice as in pics either, again I thought it would look better, but as of now I still like the currently body style better.
The last one I saw was a bit confusing. It was a MB SUV. It looked like the new ML in the spy pics we saw before (the one that looked a bit like the Kia Sorento), but it wasn't a ML, it looked like an updated A-class or something, and it was about the size of a X3...... not sure what it is.... any ideas?
anyway, pretty good sightings in about 10 minutes of time.

I haven't seen the new A4 yet on the road but it looks good
side story:
I was coming home from college 1.5 or 2 years ago on I-75 southbound doing about 75 mph and there was about 3 or 4 caddys HAULING @ss past me in the passing lane. one of the cars in the middle had to be a concept car or I think it was the CTS-V because this was before it was out. and all 4 of them we're running about the same speed. the CTS-V(or at least what i thought it was that) was white and had black mats(those weird black things they hang on cars you see in car magazines to "fool" spy from shooting them) then I looked at all the cars they said MFG under the county plus michigan tags. I think they were headed to the Vette factory in Bowling Green, Ky.
So I can say I was one of the first to see a CTS-V on the road
