The Garage

[mitlen]

The last car I remember seeing you in was an older Saturn. Have you replaced that?

I've only seen Cal on the subway and at the park.    I feel so left out.   

[CALSGR8]

I bet it's been 2 years since she replaced that with the Hyundai.  Read back through this thread maybe a couple hundred pages, I'm sure you can find it. 

 

Not a Saturn.  Used to have a green Civic though.  2011 Hyundai Elantra which was bought brand new.
Impt items lost
Tyler Clippard Bobble in trunk

Fixed.  Found hat in house

Other impt stuff too!  Anyone got a spare Clip Bobble?

Here are a few images somebody took of the Katie's Cars and Coffee thing this morning in Great Falls.

Ran into Aspenbubba there, the Cobra contingent was strong this morning.  Great turnout with the great weather.

I see MDS was there

I saw a McLaren MP4-12C, but was there also a P1?


I keep seeing what I think is a F430 Spider around here.  Always at the local buffet joint.

There were two McLarens at least, my son was on both of them (ask Aspenbubba,     )

I'll ask him again what models.

God I'd love to attend but I'd have to park my baby a ways off, I'd be embarrassed to park anywhere near those gorgeous rides. The Cobras are the sweetest in my opinion.

I don't think so boss. My Maserati is sitting in the garage.

"@Hyundai: Chances are your new Elantra is waiting for you nearby. Click to find out where.

The above add was in my twitter feed.

Hmmmm

My son says "There was a 12C and a 650S."  Whatever those are.

[Nathan]

Ah, it was a 650S, the P1 has a sort of similar looking front end.  There are only 375 P1's being made.  It's the electric + V8 900 horsepower monster.

He said the P1 is about $850k which means this as good a place as any to see one.  Great Falls is a highly affluent area, and folks also come from far away to show their cars or just see others.  Loved that Cobra from Delaware (picture in the blog thing), what a beautiful car.  AB said that was a newby just popped in for the morning.

There's a guy I see up here every year at the Super Cruise that has a Shelby Continuation Series Cobra. 427 Side oiler... good lawd! I also saw a gorgeous Hemi Cuda this year at the Street Rod Round Up. Hemi 4spd car w/rotisserie resto...

Creepy kidnapper or badass?? I've taken a liking to the "square body" Chevys, mainly trucks but I dig the fan. Makes me think Old School not A Team, that was a GMC

LOL, damn shame there aren't any drive-in movie theaters left, those vans were perfect.

Terpfan, is anyone converting sprinter vans up your way?  These Mercedes based platforms offer a few advantages - the diesel engine is fuel efficient, the narrow wheelbase makes for easier parking/handling, and the tall profile means you can stand up inside.

I love those vans. Dig the sidepipes and the body style. My mom and dad had a 75 Chevy Van when I was a kid. That thing was cool, but a piece of crap. It had a bench seat in the back, no seatbelt of course, a table, curtains and then a curtain divider to separate the front seats from the back of the van. Not to mention paneling, carpet, DIY sunroof and Cobra CB radio

No, but I can see the idea behind it. Kind of a modern day VW bus

[imref]

Family drive-in in Woodstock va is still open.

A VW bus plus size, reliability, capability, and probably better MPG with that diesel...

And for those that have to "buy 'merican", they have them Mercedes built but under different labels, like Dodge.

There's one in Stephens City - is this the same one?

Or buy the new Ford Transit (the big one), which looks to be much the same Euro-superior format.
