Time for our daily OPPO field trip to do what we always do, look at cars :]

Yesterday we visited !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! in Japan. Off the bat RacecaR made it obvious that Kei cars, Kei cars everywhere lol. Not sure where carcrasher88 was yesterday, I knew his eye would of been perfect for this but newcomer trmoore09 came through spotting very JaloPPo cars left and right lake a boss! Brian Silvestro found a car that should be sold in the US, a Toyota Mark X! Also an e91, which was the oppoiest car of the day. JayZAyEighty kept it off road with a clean Land Cruiser. RazoE's night vision was spot on finding a hidden 510 in a garage. 505turbeaux spotted something very similar to my find in a sweet Crown. My buddy PJV was on fire!!!!! But I couldn't see any of his posting :( I guessing he is using the old Google maps but not too sure :( Top honors go to KnowsAboutCars. I used to build VIP cars for friends that didn't have access to tools and a lift. Not really my style but since they paid me, I built them :] I did learn some of the culture when they'd drag me out to meets as "the builder". His find was further enhanced by its location, which is big part of these CCIARAT posts. Traveling the world (on Google lol) together with my fellow Opponauts and not only spotting cars, but the area around them. That was a wallpaper worthy !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! .

!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!

Today, we are in !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! in Australia. Lovely town as you can see..

The car I found was an older Holden Ute with I'm guessing newer style OEM wheels !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! by a 7/11 and Subway mix. (Murica Jr.!!!) I saw cooler cars but this one gave me an OPPO feeling. Like this person is one of us. A "first car" type feeling :]

Good luck dudes and dudettes :]

Fuck me. I just accidentally clicked on the picture after posting at least 30 incredible cars. All my links are gone. Two Skylines, countless beautiful old cars, a few tastefully modified newer ones, all gone. :( I feel sick.

Here, have the one I was going to post when I fucked up:

Not even close to the quality of the others. Ugh....

Another I just found.

Another.

One more... I'm done now though.

Lets see, there's a bunch of imported Mustangs. A guy that has a 2012 converted Camaro. A few GTRs, a few Ferrarirs, a fella that takes his black Lambo up the mountain every weekend, quite a selection of cars.

So overpriced.
Much ignored.
Didn't purchase.

That stealership rubbed me the wrong way. Still get my servicing done there though.

Born n raised. Most of the dealerships here are a bit overpriced, but Sydney is an hour away and we're spoiled for choice when shopping there.

About an hour south.

Sydney put up a billboard on the waa down to us with "Welcome to Wollongong, one of Sydney's southern suburbs" to which our council put up another billboard on the opposite side "Welcome to Sydney, one of Wollongong's Northern suburbs.
