    Just saw a Tron-inspired BMW i8, which is my first time seeing a i8, let alone a custom one. I also saw a Del Sol as well, both of them in Swansea.

    Today on some errands I saw some neat things -
    A Jaguar XKR (beautiful spec)
    A Jaguar F-Type (looked neat, was cool to see it out)
    2 Teslas
    A few Corvettes
    A '57 Bel Air
    A Honda Civic (90's one, I believe it was tuned, I think it actually revved)
    Some 90's van with the words The Mystery Machine on the side
    And a crazy bright pink truck.

    Went on a 9 hour drive vacation. Carspotted the entire time. Here’s what I saw-
    3 F-Types
    2 Maseratis(one new,one old)
    Some Teslas
    A few Porsches
    A Bentley Continental
    Some Corvettes

    And here’s my favorite,possibly my best spot in the wild yet.
    A Corvette ZR1. Yup,a ZR1. Google it up if you don’t know. I hate that I couldn’t get a picture of it!

    Well, when you compare it to other police cars around Mass., the CV isn't too common anymore.

    There’s a few CV police cars near me. Most police cars are Impalas. Also, yesterday I think I saw BOTH Shelby Mustangs, the GT350 and GT350R, even though they might’ve been body kits. Still so happy I saw a ZR1

    For me, it's often SUVs like the Tahoe or Explorer, and occasionally a F-150.

    Completely forgot about the Explorer. Plenty of Explorers. Don’t see many Tahoes. Not many F150s

    But for me, it's not too common to find a PV of the 2013/2016 Taurus also.
    OT:
    I did see a custom Bel Air at Six Flags yesterday, at the Rockville area of the park.
    (I do have photos, but I'll post them in the future)

    Went to dealerships today. Mercedes,Lamborghini,Aston Martin, Ferrari,Audi. Saw some nice cars. 3 LaFerraris (2 Aperta, 1 normal), a Ferrari 246 Dino, Porsche Carrera GT, AMG GT, some Aventadors, and plenty of other nice ones. The was a 1 of 1 Ferrari even! It was a GTC4 Lusso with a special paint job and interior. This makes what I saw on Monday (a BMW i8 in the wild) look cheap. Also saw a truck with a trailer called exotics delivery with pictures of some supercars on the side. I think I saw a truck delivering Rolls-Royces, but I know I saw a truck with Porsches. Nice car spotting day. Had lots of fun!

    I recently saw a first-gen Toyota Tercel in pretty good shape. Also, @Hayaku I actually work at a Six Flags park and recently saw a Ferrari convertible of some sort.

    That's nice to hear about!
    Never saw a Sera (basically a 2+2 sports car Tercel), but looking forward to see one or maybe some other car not common around my city (like the pre-mentioned Triumph 1500s).
