I took another trip to Vancouver last weekend to go visit family and was once again confronted with all sorts of cool cars. I managed to snap pictures of a few of them, but I was with my girlfriend this time, so I was paying more attention to her than to fiddling with my phone. Still, lots of cool stuff up there, with their different laws and stuff.

This Morgan (Plus 4? Plus 8?) welcomed me to the city, in just about the exact same place where I saw a !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!!

Shortly afterwards I encountered a Mini GP, which is possibly rarer than the Morgan. I also took a super awful picture of it. Find Waldo!

Lots of Lambos, Ferraris and Porsches (I managed to see three separate Gallardos while eating brunch outside one day.) A nice Integra Type R, a Lancer Evo III, and this sweet FD3S RX-7

As a bonus, i got woken up in the middle of the night by the sound of something with a high revving V8 and a frankly ridiculous overrun.

was just in the area a few weeks ago, I frequently go to Van from my place in Point Roberts Washington

It's so crazy to see 100k$ sports cars being driven around by little Asian teenaged dudes.

911 turbos, m5s, R8 V8-10, etc

You live in Point Roberts? That's kind of cool. How to do people make money there aside from selling P.O. Boxes to canadians?

Lol about PO boxes

I go to The Point half the year to escape the heat! (I go school in Texas)

I made quite a bit this year in point Roberts, worked at the Golf Club restaurant, and wired the whole marina with Ethernet for phone tv and Internet

Noone really works there, they either commute to Van, or they're retired.

My family got our place there when 24 years ago my dad worked in White Rock but needed 1 more year of residence in the US to get US citizenship (Iranian born)

So he got a house right over the border in the Point and commuted to Canada. International commute!

That's pretty neat. I am from the lower mainland myself but have never been to Point Roberts. Now I live far away in Ontario. I'll have to go someday.

I love it up there, so many awesome cars. Pretty sure you get a free Quattroporte when you move in based on how many there were.
