It looked like a vintage color photo until...

I had the exact same moment.

Some of the best collection of vintage Can-Am cars I have ever seen. Thanks.

For a second, I was like "Who owns a time machine and what are they doing in the 1960's with a Porsche Cayenne?" but then I realized this wasn't an old photograph.

Although they are very similar names.

Your thoughts on this third gen firebird. It was at a local show today and could not help bandit baiting it..

You are so right. Brain fart.

Same here....I think it's partly because all the slightly orangey pavement gives it an older, yellowed photo feel.

I need a barf bag. That thing is terrible! I've never really been a fan of the 3rd gen cars (other than the TTA and GTA), but this is the worst one I've seen. There are so many contrasting colors! You should show this to Sparf, he likes 3rd gens.

That bird would take a ton of skill to paint though, so props to the painter. The car also looks pretty darn clean under the paint job, it would look beautiful in a black, white, or maroon paint job.

This car is why I can't knock anybodies car. I'm sure that the owner loves it (hopefully), and it looks to be a very clean car. The paint's nice, it's well presented, and real skill/talent was used to paint that bird.
If someone told me, "So I'm painting my firebird blue and gold, and instead of the decal on the hood, I'm going to have it airbrushed as real fire." I might have actually said that was a good idea...

Wonderfully said. That can be said of car culture in general; I may not like your taste in slamming your car to the ground and having a fart can exhaust, but I respect your love of your car.

Is that an Alfa Romeo GTA? This model Alfa won the very first Trans Am race in 1966, driven by Jochen Rindt.

Trust me everyone knew it was bad. You should have seen the looks as I walk past all kinds of nice stuff and then stop and take a pic of that.. Owners seemed happy so guess thats all that really matters to them.

It's an annual event at North Island Naval Base on Coronado Island in San Diego. While it's for historics, they bring out the drifters to do an exhibition as well.
