    I downloaded the TapaTalk app and used that. Wouldn't work for me in my browser.

    Why yes I am a VW fan. Always thought I would restore a beetle.

    Kickin'! \X/

    My dream bug was always a '67 two-tone just like this in pearlized coral. Stock. One dream not yet materialized.

    But the Type III's are my faves by far. I'd take a square back in a heartbeat, but my love by far is the fastback.

    Which have you owned in your lifetime?? (Or should this be another thread?)

    I don't actually know what this one is, but I'm certain I've never seen anything like it before.

    This one, on the other hand, I am quite certain about. It's an old picture of a Fisker Karma I took a year and a half ago and have had sitting on my hard drive doing nothing ever since.

    There's a guy who works in the same building as me who has one of those. I see it in the parking lot all the time.

    These tech guys have more money than sense.

    Another one that's been sitting on my hard drive forever, a Ferrari spotted while stuck in stop-and-go traffic in downtown Toronto. It is a 458 Italia if I'm not mistaken.

    I've always wanted a Nissan Figaro. I didn't think any made it to North America and thought it was only JDM.

    Saw a ferrari laferrari behind me this afternoon. Thought it was a standard 458 italia, but then realized the mirrors were out on stalks. They apparently retail for around 1.4 million. Never ever expected to see one on the road. Maybe trailered to an auto show. It was pretty impressive.

    I remember the Reatta. Sales were extremely poor (for about the same money you buy a nicely loaded Corvette). Dealers offered steep discounts. Some collectors bought them "cheap" anticipating the Reatta becoming a collectors item. Ten years later extremely low mileage, as in never really driven, Reattas could be had for around $10,000.00, less if the seller was in a hurry to unload it.
