Maybach 

Rare sighting for sure. Can’t say the profile does anything at all for me. Highlight is the rims. Not sure I’d ever distinguish that from any of the offerings for us plebs - from this angle, anyway.

Looks like an Xl Volvo XC90

Or the bastard child of one of those and an Escalade.

 You nailed it. The wheels caught my eye.

The new electric Escalade? That thing looks like a jacked up Toyota Sienna minivan

Ha, I don’t think I’ve seen one of those yet, but that sounds about right.  God those Siennas are ugly.

Have not seen one of those before @GrateEggspectations

My dream car is in front of it though.  Don't think I would go convertible.  The front tires on the R8 look WORKED!  Maybe it is the angle.

Same here. 

Used to have a neighbour with an R8 V10 behind us and it was a joy to hear whenever he started her up. 

B-I-L did a track day where he tried a range of vehicles - Lambos, Ferraris, etc. The R8 was his favourite.

He might need to call the A-Team.

I stumbled across this vehicle again today. I saw it a year or two ago.

@WeberWho

Actually remember your photo from last time. Must live in your neck of the woods. What the heck is it?

That's a great question. I should have stopped in Home Depot and talked with the owner. It would have been fun to see what was going on. Whatever it is it runs rich. My best guess is that it's homemade. That's just a guess. Unless it's some old kit car but my best guess would be homemade. I'll track him down next time.

I suspect you’re probably right about it being homemade. No pressure from me, but something tells me they would adore any signs of your interest.

Ever stop to wonder how gruesome a car accident could be, if your car is made of plywood?

Haha!  Currently liquidating everything and/or wrecking what I planned to keep

Dang!  Two nice Wagoneers, that is an odd sighting!

They sit at a Canadian Tire parking lot not far from me. Usually parked far from the crowds, so I wonder if perhaps they belong to one of the staff (maybe a mechanic?).
