A few weeks ago I spent some time in Downtown Denver with !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! . This is what happened.

!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!

Yup, it's a little Daihatsu Charade. I told Denver that it's always been a weird little dream of mine to take an ugly obscure little shitbox like this and restore it to Concours spec. I don't mean LeMons, I mean, the real deal Pebble Beach thing. Just to be different I guess (and it can't be all that expensive either). You might also recognize this Charade from !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! .

I forgot why I took this shot. Early-gen Escort maybe? EDIT: NO! BMW 3 SERIES GT!

Pretty self explanatory, Denver told me this was the legit vintage real deal here. Being used as a glorified streetwalk billboard.

And of course, a number of scooters for the shop too. Plus Volvo convertible! Given the reputation for both snow and sun they and their Saab competitors tend to be popular here. Too bad they discontinued it, but there's always the Mini I guess. And before you ask, no, not even Colorado was prepared to accept the just too-over-the-top Murano CrossTrek.

Smart Car Behind Bars. Occupying a private parking lot all by itself. Doesn't this kind of defeat the sole purpose of owning a Smart Car?

Completely roached F-150 barely visible due to no Potato Flash.

And, uh, this guy. He saw me take a photo of him and he was rocking out (I'm sure that sentence makes sense).

This was captured weeks later but I'll throw it in. You can barely see the giant modified Grumman AgCat biplane used as a banner tower (very popular aircraft for this sort). It's an effin' huge single-engine biplane powered by the type of radial mill they stuffed in the most storied of WWII fighters and it looks mean and ugly, but it's hard to convey how awesomely impressive this aircraft is in this one stupid Android Potato photo.

This thing made me make a horrible noise, like a mix between "AHHH!' and "EEEEEWW!"

I'll remind you:

Turin Cycles: a thoroughly decent bike shop. Benny's: legendary green chili and margaritas not half-bad.

Do you mean the Murano CrossCabriolet, the convertible Murano? Because I moved to Denver in July and I've seen two or three of them out and about.
