Car: 1997 Yamaha Seca II, 1976 Honda CB550F Rep Power: 132  | Those two unknown red cars are both Triumph Spitfires; the first one has a hardtop in place. Where the hell do you get all these cool cars?!  I didn't even know ATVs were street-legal there, especially on freeways. And I've never even seen an XJ220 at a car show, much less driving around in public...Quote:
 Boy, does that bring back memories of Boy Scout camping trips. My friend had a trailer approximately that size, so we would load up 15 or so bicycles on the back and tow it with a proper vehicle, his father's Chevy Astro... ...which is also why America is the greatest country in the world because we won't embarrass ourselves with a dinky little Nissan like that.  Seriously though, that looks painful and suicidal.

Car: Saab 93 2.0t @ stage 3 now Rep Power: 31 | I was there a little over 2 hours, but this is a very major freeway coming from Amsterdam. And i think the fact that it was sunday, and great weather made a huge difference. |

Car: 94 Buick Century - 86 Pontiac Grand Prix Rep Power: 12 | that is an amazing assortment of cars to see on a freeway  and that caamaro, besides color,wheels and exhaust tips is identical to my fathers I mean absolutely identical, right down to the chrome trim around the tail lights and the headlights, grill, door handles... everything. Im pretty sure its a 1976 rally sport actually. and I never expected that XJ220 at all
