I don't have a picture for this one, but while I was riding the bus through Riverside yesterday, I saw a 1974+ Chevy Vega on someone's lawn. It was seriously beat-up and did not look like it ran, but it's the first one I've ever seen nonetheless. Next to it was an equally beat-up 1975-77 Ford LTD sedan.

Now that's globalisation !
Seen yesterday ( but not uploaded until today because flickr is slower than a 1st gen Pontiac Firefly towing a Ford Excursion.... ) . Fiat 126 . I'd like to know the possible year range . i think it might be 1984+ judging from what i saw/read on internet but i don't think i ever saw one
my car found another way to get in the pic..
Nothing feels better than driving on some new asphalt
Speaking of white cars...missed that white Peugeot 505 a few days ago...again

This 126 is from the years 1978-83 (till mid-1983). Since May 1983 to early 1985 there was only the "Fiat 126" badge on the back (w/o "Personal" trim badge) and then in 1985 the facelifted version was introduced.

Saw this 1993 Ford Tempo today. It looks depressed...
I saw two more of that generation Ford Tempo while driving later that day, oddly enough.

Thanks weasel1984
i first thought it was 1984 or over because of the bumpers because i saw a bunch of chrome ones on older ones on google..

Installed a dashcam in my car last night, so now I can show you guys the cars I see while driving. Too bad I didn't install it a day earlier - I could have shown you guys a 1979 Chevy Malibu coupe and a 1983-86 Ford LTD that I saw on the freeway yesterday...
Anyway, is this Lexus a legit Lexus or is it a custom job?

Always fun to see a M5 ( it was one, not in the pic , the 4 exhaust pipes and the fender vent make me believe so ) . What drew my attention even more was the M5 badge... some of our Europeans friends will spot why quite quickly..

In reply to Reg1992 long post:
11. 1965-67 Ford Econoline Super Van, has the extended length
16. with the pointy nose, it's actually a Dart Sport coupe, the Duster twin
17. Buick Estate wagon rather than Ford
20. looks like a brown Chevelle sedan hiding behind the fence
23. 1972 Honda Z600 coupe rather than the N600 sedan
Reply to Baube:
8. It was the same in the US, only the wagon in 1990

interesting bug of the forum, I don't know why there is a Charger capture attached to my post
It must come from elsewhere (but I didn't upload it), if I delete it I'm afraid it will disappear from its original location where it may be useful

It belongs on the Silk Stalkings page, submitted by HunterMan. Not sure how it ended up in your post.
I just added to that page, so you can delete here.
