Notable car sighting thread - Page 87

Just posting some pics. I mentioned the Holden sighting last week.

I also saw a couple Volvos with manufacturer plates on them and "Test Vehicle" stenciled on the doors. Only got a pic of the wagon -- the sedan was too far ahead.

And for fun, a Fiat 500 with "IMLUIGI" license plate...

Saw a Porsche Carrera GT in downtown Tampa this week. Sorry, didn't get a picture, though.

It was a lot smaller in person than I expected it to be. Visually, it seems like a very small amount of weight to be pushed around by that big engine.

A Noble at The Dragon today. The first time I have seen one.

Not notable, but I saw an E90 yesterday near the Everett Mall with a Dodge "HEMI" badge above the rear bumper

I need to get a cheap camera for the Toureg

Famous Dave's is just marketing. I've been in strip mall BBQ joints down South (which would be pizza or Chinese food here) that have more awards than Famous Dave's. Down there, Famous Dave's is just another mid-tier BBQ chain.

I don't go there to eat, but I like their "blue" sause for ribs I cook at home.

The only BBQ chain I get excited for is Rudy's but we don't get near any of their stores anymore.

Interstate BBQ outside of Memphis is the best BBQ I have ever eaten

If you don't mind the danger to life and limb, many supermarkets in East St. Louis have entire BBQ sauce aisles.

My favorite is Rivertowne BBQ in Ozark, AR. (Caution - annoying auto-play pig sounds). I don't know that I could define any one place as "best BBQ", but Rivertowne makes everything on-site and Kevin (the owner) is a car guy.
