Montreal also has some pretty neat cars...

... especially around Grand Prix time.

599 GTO

FF with HRE wheels

 599 SA Aperta (I didn't even know such a car existed)

And finally, Jules with a classic Mini.

Cool Vancouver Cars, Part II

Vancouver

I am writing from my lovely hotel room in beautiful Vancouver. Alex had the brilliant idea that I should accompany her on a 4-day trip to attend a conference and here I am.

The city is compact, clean and filled with interesting architecture. One thing I did not expect was that there would be so many interesting cars. I assumed that the eco-minded residents of B.C. would not choose to drive interesting cars. Boy, was I wrong. Here is a sampling of what I have seen in only a day and a half here:

First time I have ever seen one... and at my own Hotel!

Tastefully modified Miata

 

Austin-Healey 3000

Another rare AMG: the C63 507 Edition

Flat black and extremely loud

Another SLS (there were several around!)

Super clean 356

Cool Land Rover

CRX Si - another clean West Coast car

One of many cool JDM trucks

Lightly modded 300 CE

Another clean 80's car

Not valuable, but rare: Bentley Mulsanne Turbo

Another first: AMG SLS Black Edition!
