Seen today... 1990-1991 Honda Civic ..... not as common as it used to be...
and a rare 2010-2012 Lexus HS250h. According to my books , probably around 200-250 units sold here in the whole life of the car ( as it was not in my 2013 book i don't have the numbers for 2012 but sales are 160 cars for 2010-2011 ). Now really
at myself for being too lazy to walk an extra 20 feet to get a front shot....

I'll have the chance of finding her too

For the record, the picture in that article is not in Washington, DC, but rather in front of Access National Bank at 8221 Old Courthouse Road, Tysons Corner, VA. Another picture I've seen indicates the other car involved was a Honda Pilot.
Also, the tow yard rearranged a few things allowing for some new views of the Studebaker. The shadow of the badge on the front indicates it's a Champion.

About the dashcam... might not see too much interesting ones when going to work ( but you never know..). Is your big cat's dashboard ( my grandfather had a 1978 one when i was a liitle kid and it seems so big ) a good place for it ( if it can easily be removed and installed in another car ) ?
Moving it from car to car is easy; it mounts on a suction cup on the windshield. The problem is that it's powered by plugging it into the cigarette lighter. My Cougar has two lighters, and neither has worked since I've had the car.

Quite possible, since The second generation, called Citroën C-Elysée, is built in Vigo, Spain, along with the Peugeot 301, on which it is based, for markets in North Africa and Eastern Europe. The C-Elysée is also manufactured in China as its predecessor.

Not sold here... And the truck had a plate of an East Europe state, I wonder if they carry them directly from Spain on from a port (shipped on a cargo), for take them on a local market

Saw this one a few days ago. Was more to test my zoom than by interest that i took the pic but decided to post it anyway since it might help me to tell 940 ( i did ID the car as one ) apart from the 960
Yesterday was unpopuplar GM N-Body day as i saw two Oldsmobile Achieva ( no pics, driving ) and this Buick Skylark, which i believe to be 1996-1997 ( 1998 were fleet-only sales here but its not impossible that it is an " ex-fleet " ) . I might be wrong as i can't tell the difference if the pic is not showing the front ...
If i'm wrong about them, please let me know so i can ID them correctly....

^ I still see the occasional 90s Oldsmobile as daily drivers in the poor parts of L.A. Strange-looking, but interesting at least.
Little 70s/early 80s Volkswagen thingy...
80s Jeep in good condition
Subaru ?

I see old cars especially when going to the parts of town that have all the auto repair/smog/exhaust/muffler/tire shops in it. Like today...

This Toyota I've noticed this morning at first from the oncoming direction and have thought "Nice motif for my plate-fellows", because it still has the old-style plates (pre 10/2000), here it seems even its first one.
But on the way back I saw "Oops, that's it for plate and car"
When I parked in front of our drugstore, I had this view on the left:
In my company there's a girl with an Italian name. The computer system shows that abbrevation:
