Since you guys like Skylines, here's a few more Rivsu shots. The first two are the cars in their warehouse awaiting their new owners. The last is a 1972 Skyline GT-R sitting next to another R32. All together there was probably 15 Skylines.

A pretty red 70 to 72 Buick GS convertible with the top down. AAAAAHHHHH My first love with four wheels!

Unfair! Temps here have recently dropped like a stone. We won't be seeing many convertibles, Buick or other wise, with the tops down in the near future.

Late 80s Acura coupe without a muffler, spewing black smoke with a burning valve odor. Made me nostalgic for my 60s Alfas. (In those days with Alfa, "there's nothing like the smell of burning valves in the morning.")

Saw several sharp premium 4drs--a black Aston Martin Rapide in my bank parking lot, a brown 2nd gen Merc CLS (my favorite current MB, a blue BMW M6 Gran Coupe, and the now-common Tesla S (in red).

For an obscure 2dr, I saw Chrysler TC by Maserati in white w/ a red front bumper.

Convertible season is here--saw a dark gray w/ black stripes late model Shelby GT500 convertible and a silver Camaro ZL1, both top down.

As far as oldies, I got to ride in a coworkers' neat '70 blue Land Cruiser FJ40 today, w/ the top off...rode in his clean white '82 FJ60 4dr last week...also saw a clean white FJ55 4dr w/ a blue '70s California plate last night...those old Land Cruisers are really neat.

Local Chevy store got in at least 2 of the new Colorados, they had two out front this morning--a red one and a black one--both 4x4 crew cabs...pretty sharp looking. Also saw two Panamera Turbos (white w/ black wheels and silver) and 3 more Teslas.

It's True, 'Cause for the rest of the Year you need the Top Up so the AC will keep you from turning into a Crispy Critter!

Yes. I don't have a convertible, but enjoy being able to put the windows down and open the sunroof....I probably drive w the AC on 8 months a year...

And in Pennsylvania, I put the roof back on the Geo Tracker in late September. Leaves are coming down at a mad rate, it's been windy this weekend so tons have fallen. Last Sunday I was able to blow off the yard into the woods, I thought if I did this as often as I could I'd avoid having leaves a foot or two deep in the yard. By Friday there were as many leaves as I had cleaned up the week before. Yesterday alone, about an equal quantity fell. Yesterday it rained and today I'm headed to a wedding so the next time I get a chance will be next Sunday. Yea, they'll be pretty deep by then :(

Headed to Atlantic City this morning I came across an original Batmobile on a two lane road, coming at me! It happened too fast to do anything. My wife's response? That was ugly!

A surprise for sure but I recall that one of the originals resides in NJ

I saw an Avanti in of all places, the parking lot at the supermarket! I don't think I've ever seen an Avanti in "real life" before... only at the auto show. It was gray. Not metallic, not silver... just plain old gray. Battleship gray. With black wheels.

Saw a beautiful current style BMW 7-series Alpina B7 in Alpina Blue..Alpina is one of my favorite tuner companies. Speaking of tuners, I also saw a otherwise stock looking 3 series sedan w/ a 'Junction Produce' decal...Junction Produce is a Japanese tuning house, I wonder if some in the US would think it was the name of a rural farmers market.. ;)
