Google maps is a great thing. I was searching through my M3 after I purchased it and thought to run a few addresses I found in the car. Sure enough, the Google Maps image for one of them had the car in the driveway, with some "rimzzzz" nonetheless.

Hmmmm. Google Maps be a good tool for “driveway finds.”
That's something that bothers me for a while now. There's people who try aything to make non-descript photos, hide the numberplates on photos, never make a photo of their car in the vicinity of where it's stored. And then the google car comes and makes a picture of it in your driveway or at your working place and voilá: people come visit for parts of the complete car.
I find it very pleasing however google tries to pixelate one of the sponsor stickers on the Jägermeister car :rofl:

I had my home blocked out by google for peace of mind. They do it for privacy reasons if you request it.
