A good morning for car spotting, even though it was raining pretty hard. A nice 599, and I think a Turbo S.

Pretty sure that's an Accord coupe.

Was this a turbo cruze?

Understandable, no one can resist the draw of that RX300 on the right.

The Base LS is the only non-turbo Cruze, and this looks like a Cruze RS, a package only available on the higher trims, meaning that yes, it is a turbo Cruze.

Are you sure it's an RS? It's not an LS I don't think because it has the chrome accent on the handle.

Could be a diesel, no?

Shit. You're right.

My brain goes to RX300 because my dad had a purple one when I was a kid

I have no idea if it really is an RS, but it is obvious that it's not an LS, like you said. Definitely could be a diesel.

My dad had one too. In that champagne beige-y gold.

There's a lot of high-end Porsche's running around here. It's gotten to where I sort of don't notice them anymore, lol. It's like "Oh, another Carrera GTS. Oh hey, a 911 Turbo S. OH MY FUCKING GOD, IS THAT A 1986 TOYOTA TERCEL 4WD WAGON!?"

I just want to say I love oppositelock. Someone posts a picture of a 911, and we start discussing whether or not a Chevy Cruze is a diesel.

I think it's just a non RS turbo. The RS has a funky bumper accent, and the diesel doesn't have a badge on the right

RS:

Diesel:

I remember when my dad bought it. He called home saying he was getting the car and that it was 'robins egg blue'

Then he shows up and it's not robins egg blue, it's dark blue. Except it's closer to purple than blue, which my brother and I were always quick to point out. He never liked that...

I'm more impressed that Beltway traffic at least appears to be actually moving.

In the rain, no less.

I find this true around my parts, along with Teslas and even R8s.
