Spotted a matte black Gallardo on Washington Blvd. near Clarendon @ 6:30 pm. Matte black, dark tinted windows, black wheels. Bruce Wayne?

Saw a VW Phaeton yesterday. Haven't seen one of those since just after they came out...

After looking at it again I can see why they didn't sell many...

Why do you say that? I think it's a pretty good looking car. Especially the C pillar and rear of it. Chassis is shared with Bentley Continental GT and Flying Spur, as are some of the interior parts.

It's a nightmare of computers though, sort of like a modern 928. And the 12 mpg part isn't too appealing.

Yeah this guy lives near me on North Shore. Poor car isn't in the greatest shape, but it does look like he got it running again. It was parked on the street collecting dust for a few months (later on he threw a tarp on it).


That car falls into my list of "cars that are such absolute crap but I don't care because they're awesome so I would own one anyway".

Spotted a black '85 Carrera coupe with a For Sale sign in Baileys Crossroads today, parked just off of Columbia Pike (eastbound) just before Madison Lane. The sign said "as is", 150k(?) miles, 10k obo.
