Random street-parked Maybach. I think something is wrong with the air suspension, judging by the stance. Probably a cheap fix.

I saw a Saab that appeared to be less than 5 years old the other day. I'd consider that notable.

335i xDrive with a manual transmission, which is pretty notable, but especially since it was my Uber car last night. I bonded with the driver.

I'm guessing it's a JDM kei car of some sort from the early 90s, imported under the 25 year old.

Zooming in -- its a Texas plate.

I'm guessing a JDM car of some sort that someone imported. Looks more like a Suzuki or something similar. But why?

25+ year old JDM car makes sense. I don't get the point either.
