Vintage vehicles photos are quite common, so let's post shots of modern ones.
Me first:

Hehe, I ain't got so much knowledge about cars, but I think it's a Ford Mustang. I neither got a driving license myself. Instead I prefer bicycle, train or bus

I can also mention that I have an idea about a photo project about swedish trains and railroad, and that's just one of my photo ideas for year 2012

Hehe, that's true, Lisandra, but now it's dark and very cold here in Sweden so I don't have the right opportunities right now. Maybe tomorrow

Sorry, its 88 degrees here today, so I kinda forget the rest of the world is going through winter.

Nice! I don't really dig cars, I took just motorcycle driver license (pictures of my bike will follow soon

), but I like how some cars are more of a beautiful sculpture than a medium of transport (I die for the Bugatti Veyron...

)

It would take more than a maiming to get my r32. (if I had one

)

But yes, all hail Godzilla.

A Black Beauty - 'Yamaha 1300 Midnight Star' - I believe the 'blacks' came out quite well on this one.

I like the beamer, but can only afford a Toyota, err Chevy

gtxtom · « **Reply #19 on:** January 21, 2012, 06:15:51 PM »

Haha. The BMW is an employee lease. That's the only way I can afford it. It's a diesel as well. It's a very nice mix of power and gas mileage. It's got just under 400 miles on it and I still have around 1/8th tank left. That's mostly city driving as well.
