I recently moved from my home in the Midwest to go to school in New York. Upon arrival, I was instantly enthralled with the diversity of the quirky, charming, often beat up, occasionally rare, and always interesting cars of Brooklyn. I apologize in advance for the quality of some of the pictures (I'm no photographer), and the fact that while I find these cars interesting, many people may not.

To start things off, an 80's Golf Cabrio, which I'm guessing had seen better days at some point.

These guys had a super clean (and rather rare) A4 convertible, and were really cool about letting me get pics.

In keeping with the German theme, I saw this e39 M5 in Dumbo last weekend

I don't think that Volvo 940s left the factory in this good of shape. This thing should be in a museum.

This retro Triumph Thruxton was parked right outside my dorm a few days ago.

I spotted this Custom Ducati Monster on my way to get GTA5 last Tuesday.

And lastly, this awesome custom Honda. I love the style of this bike, it's exactly what I'd do if I had one.

This does nothing to help my lust for the W114/W115. I especially love color-matched hubcaps on Benzes of this vintage.

I don't blame you, That Merc was gorgeous! Great condition too.

Loving the photo sets man. I've often thought about putting a similar page together; I live in Brooklyn myself and constantly take pictures of neat cars I come across in my hood.

Nice to know there are some fellow jalops roaming around Brooklyn, considering the car scene in NYC is all but nonexistent, at least where I am.

Glad you like the pictures, I'll keep them coming! And I'd love to check out the cars you've seen, Brooklyn is definitely a city for petrolheads

I'll try to organize my pics and get a post up this weekend. Looking forward to more of yours. Just curious, what part of Brooklyn have these spottings happened?
