Car discoveries in San Francisco

[LincolnLovin]

I've been lucky enough to spend November in sunny San Fraaaaanncciiisssscoo, and whilst its hardly motor city I've been keeping an eye of for interesting cars:



This plucky Toyota was in great shape, tiny though...



The new Mustang looks really fresh, and I love the shade of blue.



This F150 screamed a life lived hard, you can't see it in the photo but there were padlocks keeping the rad secured.



It wouldn't be America without a Peterbuilt, this things are massive



Sharknosed BMW, killer seats too



Camaro Iroc Z28, in pretty decent nic



I forget what this was (Chevelle?) but it lovely condition and YELLOW



Real presence



400, doing it right



Grabber Orange challenger, lovely

Grabber Orange is a Ford colour.

Think they call it Hemi Orange.

Was there last year, amazed me how many nice old 911's there were, a lot seemingly unrestored, just used daily. I think San Francisco is pretty rough on cars with its climate, not as bad as here but can be quite damp, so suspect a lot of the older ones are from inland.

OK then, who's colour was Grabber blue? No googling

Were you sure to wear some flowers in your hair......? Sorry, couldnt resist

Great spots. Love car spotting abroad, infact, I usually pay most of my attention to the roads on holiday rather than supposedly famous buildings etc

Indeed, theres a Ram SRT-10 parked down the street from my apartment. The odd thing is that it looks like a mid size truck.

Think about that for a second.

Managed to get over to San Francisco for work for a week in September for the last two years, and enjoyed it immensely. Had a Challenger the first time we went for a couple of days, and got a Mustang Convertible this time - you certainly see lots of interesting cars out there, and no end of hire Mustangs / Camero's / Challengers cruising around the more touristy areas of the city!

Had some free time today and managed to find some more interesting cars:
