Two men have been robbing people at gunpoint in northeast Austin, and in one case, they shot a utility worker in the face because he didn’t comply. Police have this surveillance photo of the alleged perps’ car, but they don’t seem to have a make/model. Get on it, Oppo.

that looks very odd to me. almost like a cross bebtween a old S4 wagon and a RX7./

I am also very drunk ATM,. so maybe once I sober up a bit i will get a better look at it.

Initial reaction off just a quick glance it’s a Honda Civic from the 90’s. But in looking closer at the tail lights, me thinks it’s a A33 Nissan Maxima (‘99 -’03) or L30 Altima (‘98 -’01)

I want to say late 90s/early 00s Asian of some sort. Tercel, Accent, etc.

I’d guess 90’s civic or early 2000’s sonota. Also notice the dent on the passenger side door.

My guess is Suzuki Forenza.

Distinct upper and lower tail lights, and illuminated side markers in front and rear bumpers. (In the second video, the pass. side one seems burned out)

Also, headlights seem slanted back in the video.

In looking at the viedeo notice the headlight shape and indicator/reflector position, I think the A33 Maxima is the best bet

Also, I know I posted the wrong Altima, but it’s not that one anyway.

Hard to tell, but we might be looking at a MkV VW Jetta, 2006 or so. The front fender profile and headlight cut into it look similar, the side windows look pretty close, and you can see it has a full 1/4 window in the rear. Looks like it has a big dent in the right front door too, and it appears to be a bit lower than stock, but on steel wheels. There’s too much glare from the taillights to tell if the bumper kicks up like this though, it might not.

I initially thought late 90’s Chevy Malibu, but a quick GIS shows those have the license plate in the bumper.

Of course, I could be totally wrong, and it could be a late 90’s-early ‘00s Mazda Protege:
