Occasionally I'll run across a car that to me looks like its just waiting for someone to take it off the owners hands. Here are a few that I think are left for dead.

Since Google Street has not made their way to Podunkville as of yet, I have to resort to less entertaining methods.....

Bingo, here's one i would often see in San Gabriel, whenever i dropped off a co-worker. I think this one is outdated, b/c last i saw there were two in the driveway.

okay... that didn't work. I'll try again in a second


Gotta Print Screen the image and then host it on Photobucket.com or Flickr.com.

Here's another one in San Marino, it's a white 914, but it's now under a car cover:

That particular area has a high car theft rate and I have heard the guy had a ton of people always coming up asking if he wanted to part with the 914s. I also hear the owner of the cars is a member on here but I don't know who.

Also found out the owner of the cars isn't the one who owns the house. Don't know if this is true but the sorces say it is (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Here's mine. It's not dead either, at least it wasn't 4 weeks ago when I last drove it. Maybe I need to take it out today.
