•January 27, 2012 • 2 CommentsReader Mike sent in these photos of cars he has photographed in profile in Southern California, all using a Mamiya medium format camera on Fuji film. Sounds good to us.
Here are a few of our favorites. Thanks for sharing, Mike!

Quick tribute to a great marque
•January 26, 2012 • 5 CommentsRegardless of what happens to Saab, that perennially embattled Swedish automaker, we will always have the indelible memory of its cool, quirky, and altogether desirable cars. Just the other day we were floored as we walked by a street-parked 9000 Aero (sadly not pictured here). Black-on-black and clad with the signature 16″ Ronal ‘Super Aero’ gunmetal wheels, it looked every inch the business and instantly made us want one, reports of torque steer be damned.
Saab still has it. And with any luck, it will continue to make such memorable cars in this brave new automotive world that it faces. Godspeed.
This is so awesome
•January 25, 2012 • 3 CommentsHats off to these guys— our latest automotive heroes. The location is CORE (Colorado Off Road Extreme), “an 800-Acre off road park for Trucks, SUVs, Jeeps, and all types of four-wheel drive vehicles, as well as ATVs, rally cars, and hill climb cars.”
Awesome.
Video isn’t the greatest but gets the job done.

Enjoy!

Finally, some manifestation of winter
•January 23, 2012 • 4 CommentsBecause cold weather without snow is pretty pointless. And we must say, we love how the old girl looks after a good romp in the stuff 
This car’s ability to incite hooliganism never ceases to amaze. One could be the most straight-laced, law-abiding member of society, and this little motor will easily egg that person into being a hoon. Every empty lot passed is an invitation to let it rip— a bit like leaving one’s mark in wet concrete, albeit without the permanence. No harm, no foul! It’s way too much fun.

On that note, have a great weekend thinking warm and sunny thoughts (when right now it’s anything but).

We were just thinking about these the other day
•January 19, 2012 • 14 CommentsThey still look so good, don’t they? Objectively speaking, 911s may continue to get faster and better all the time, but viscerally at least, the 993 Turbo to us is still the pinnacle of the road-going 911. It is so perfectly proportioned.

Winter hoon
•January 18, 2012 • 10 CommentsWhat can we say? We’re in a winter kind of mood. Here’s an Alfista admirably hooning his 75. We’re jealous of all that snow. And open space.
