    Cool cars in your neighborhood

    We often take walks with the kids, and I've noticed some cool cars in my neighborhood. When I saw the Mcoupe parked at the house right behind me and one over, I was blown away! So I started grabbing pics of cool cars I see whenever we go for a walk. There are more on different routes that we take including a bathtub porsche rotting in a backyard, but these are ones i've snapped so far...

    S52 Mcoupe with enough Dinan goodies to get the special badge.


    Nicely done Mk6 jetta. Gian intercooler on the S4 in the background


    Monster 2nd Gen 4runner with a solid axle swap on the front!


    Nice Mini Clubman S with cream leather interior.

    well there's this parked in my building's garage....I guess it's cool since you never ever see this (perhaps with good reason? ) It's also the 6cyl version, so yeah... 94 raging horses

      One of my neighbors has a restored 69 Camaro, and a Volvo P1800. Another has, or had (he said he was selling it last I spoke to him) a really nicely done Model A. And then there's the guy at the end of the street, who has had, over the past 10 years or so, a 996 Turbo, an E36 race car, an E30, an E12 (I think), and some kind of purpose built race car, don't remember what it was called though. I've also seen an NSX in someone's garage, never seems to drive it though.

      There's a guy around the corner from my parent's vacation house that has two Camaros. One looks like a 67, not sure what the other is, but one of them looks like it slid into a curb. The other looks really nice though. He's also got a drag car that's some sort of early 60s Chevy. There's also a guy up the street with a mid 60s Chevy truck, but he keeps it outside (salt air) so it looks like shit now.

      I don't have any pics though, sorry.

        Some people might consider some cars in my neighborhood cool, but from what I've seen, I've got the coolest.

                  We have a guy down the street that daily drives a Black Lambo Gallardo and a Maserati GT. No pictures but I can tell you he leaves for work at 6:30am sharp. The sounds those cars make are pure sex, even at 6am.

                  There is also a guy that recently moved but he had a blown (you know the type) 80's drag camaro that he would drive to the grocery store.

                    Eric, what part of the springs are you located in?

                    There is a guy down the street from me that has 3 silver Corvettes. 2 look identical and 1 is an older model

                    My old neighborhood there was a guy that had a 4 car garage with 3 lifts. I believe they were all customer cars but there was usually an E90 M5, F10 M5, 1M, and a few different 996 turbos that i would see all the time. I loved his setup!
