Nissan is a Stagea. Pretty much an estate version of the Skyline.

What's the car in your avatar. BTW?

About 10 cars altogether. The Bizz was absolutely droolable, but only about as high as a small dog. Various Fiats and Alfas as well.

At least it is a Brabus version, according to the plate

Maybe not particularly interesting to most but you don't see these so often any more and I like them:

I saw an Airstream A-Van the other day in DC. Had a grille/badge just like this: http://www.imcdb.org/vehicle_240780-Airstream-A-Van.html If it weren't for IMCDb, I never would have known what it was. Looked pretty rough, but it appeared to still be in use as a food service van.

And a while ago, I saw the attached - A full-size Mercury station wagon. The newest it can possibly be is 1991, and as of April 2012 it's still in service as a taxi. The location is the same intersection as http://www.imcdb.org/vehicle_359972-Hyundai-Entourage-VQ-2007.html by the way.

It seems the picture was too big. Let's try it again.

Nice one - looks like an autotest special or similar. Apparently a basic 2 door 73-76 but probably something stronger under the lid.

I saw a Saturn Ion in the centre of Brussels, quite unusual here (with a German plate)
08/05/2012 @ 17:28:18: Nightrider: interesting/funny/special cars sightings
I saw red '72 Chvey Impala 4dr today.
08/05/2012 @ 17:29:03: Mudflap2: interesting/funny/special cars sightings
Today I spotted a Ford Escort MkV Cabriolet - not especially interesting, but they are becoming increasingly rare:
08/05/2012 @ 18:43:29: weasel1984: interesting/funny/special cars sightings
From today:
Ugly as hell, but I even like it - for sure unusual - Nissan Sentra B11:

(old times of the individual import - still black reg. plates)

Less unusual, SAAB 900 Turbo for maniacs:


And a bit older pic from autumn (I even forgot, I have it in phone) - MB W111 and vintage Jelcz 043 - small exhibition at the metro station during the Day of the public transport...

... however I was in hurry and could take pictures of a few newer buses only :ohwell: The most interestng was perhaps the Solaris Vacanza based "Vampirobus":

EDIT: Imageshack lost the pics - dead links have been removed.

Oh, I forgot about red Corrado G60.
08/05/2012 @ 20:46:35: ingo: interesting/funny/special cars sightings
A propos Corrado: that one, located in the street behind my office in Dortmund is still alive - for any strange reason its only usage is to be a delivery van. A small private grocer delivers the purchases to the old people in the neighbourhood.
