I haven't seen a 2.7 Intrepid moving under its own power since before Hurricane Katrina.

Most unusual and rare car on here thusfar!

Someone needs to put that into a museum so we can learn from our mistakes.

I can't ever get images to post from my phone or laptop. A few years ago I snapped a picture of a Coda. For those not in the know ony 127 give or take 10 were made before the company folded. Essentially the company was based in California but the cars were made in China with appalling quality control and were $40k

YouTuber Aging Wheels has several, because a Trabant and a Wheego wasn't obscure enough

Had a 67 FORD Cortina GT when I was stationed in GUAM in the early 70's, was a rust bucket but ran like a champ.

Never heard of a Pontiac G3. Was expecting to see a Mexico plate but it was an AZ plate.

I think they sold them in Canada as well as Mexico.

Would that be a rebadged Chevy Aveo?

Yes.

Wife snapped these on I-65 north as we headed back from Gulf Shores on Saturday. Looks to be mid-late 1990s. Right-hand drive. Would appear to have the 3.0L turbodiesel (factory-rated 131 HP/218 LB-FT).

The pale green one looks like an updated homage to the Goggomobil Coupé made by Glas.

Zimmer, Stutz Bearcat, or Excalibur - the dream cars of my preteen youth. I tried telling my dad we needed one of those in our garage for sure. He didn't agree with me.

Occasionally, I spot rare or unusual cars and trucks and post photos here.

I also enjoy seeing photos of rare vehicles that you guys see, so I thought I’d start a thread where we can post photos of them.

I’ll start with the RH drive Land Cruiser Prado I spotted in the parking garage here at Vanderbilt University Medical Center today:
