Other PPL's Aurora's

[Genopsyde]

Ok, I don't know if this has been done yet, but the object is to post pictures of other aurora's you encounter on a random basis. Not your friend or neighbor's car, but the ones you see on your way to work, or wherever. So have your camera phones and digital camera's armed and ready.

I encountered this one this morning on my way to work as we had both exited the freeway.

OOOh, cool thread! I put a note on one today extending an invitation to come join ACNA. I had my camera in my car too! I'll look for it tomorrow, heck maybe even try to park next to it!

[Aurora40]

The guard where I work has a nice blue/grey classic. I told him I liked his car. Guess I'll have to print out a little ACNA card or something.

[95mushroom]

Lol, one of the guards to our community has a champage color classic. on 20's. But I haven't seen it in a while.

Like the idea though. Kinda like Zincster's 'orphans' page...

The receptionist at my mother's eye doctor owns a Classic. The next time that we go there, I'm going to try to get a pic of my car & her car if I can park next to it.

Cincinnati, OH

I was visiting a clinic for people going blind and saw an immaculate white Classic. The inside looked brand new! (Yes, I looked inside.)

Later on, an old woman got into the car and drove away. I was so tempted to give her my name/number in case she wanted to sell it. This was in NE Cinti. Sorry, no pics.

[Genopsyde]

ok, these are from saturday. My buddy and I went on a little road trip and I encountered 1 classic and 2 2nd gens. The classic was spotted first as we pulled into the parking lot of the Summit Racing Equipment retail store here in N.E. Ohio. There was actually 2 classics in the lot but the 2nd one had left before I could get a picture.


The 2 2nd gens were both spotted on our way home, the first one on State Route 8, and the second one on Interstate 271.

I remember that....... ;D

Here is the Classic that sits in a small office lot down from my house during weekdays. I really like the color in person (picture doesn't do it justice) and I've thought about giving the owner my name for first dibs on buying it.

Or in time you can just paint yours that color...

[Genopsyde]

i've seen one locally that color too, i really like it.

[95mushroom]

Well, almost 1 week, 400 miles, and no luck, another then a flash of a stock white classic going the opposite way. There seems to be more down in South Florida then in Orlando. I'l' keep the eyes on the look out...

[NYsteve]

I'm kinda bummed I dont have a digital camera. I've been seeing Aurora's left and right lately. I saw 5 on my way to the mall just the other day.

Haha, I love how we're all Aurora stalkers though.

[gpriest]

You're all perverts... in an odd aurora kind of way........... and don't stop cuz this seems interesting. I'll try to contribute more to this sadistic thread hahaha.

[unirok]

We got plenty of people driving Auroras here in DE but these days people will call the cops on you for taking pictures of anything.

[luvmybravada]

I saw 6 classic Auroras today. I even happend to have my camera with me and enough time to waste to get pictures. Unfortunately, one went by the the opposite direction and I didn't get that one but here are the ones I did get. No one called the cops on me, although I think some did give me a funny look but since I was in the same kind of car they didn't car. At least that's what I hope.







This one's repainted. Horrible overspray on the mufflers.

[Rocketv8]

wow, that last white one looks just like mine!!!! i cannot believe you actually saw 6 Classics in one day....i dont think i have seen 6 Classics around here in 1 year !!!!! Must be a more popular car in your part of the country than it is here....that blue one has to go, what an awful color

[Mr. Javi]

I think nothing beats like that Navy Blue for the Classic.

I wish that color had been available for the 2001.

[Genopsyde]

in the local KFC drive thru...

[Mr. Javi]

Did that guy say anything to you about snapping a picture of his 2nd Gen Aurora?

It looks nice though.

[Genopsyde]

no, "she" didn't even see me

[gpriest]

^^ A bunch of James Bonds right here lol... I can already hear the theme music.

[JimW]

I saw quite a few Auroras on my camping trip (there and back) 2 2nd Gens and about 5 Classics. No pics though, had to keep my car under control on the hwy

Not feelin those rims on that 2nd gen there.

[Mr. Javi]

That's what I was thinking when I saw them too, those wheels should be on like a Cavalier or something along those lines.

[Genopsyde]

me either, I shoulda slapped the driver. anyway, here's a second gen i spotted on the way home from work...

Thats the exact color i want to paint my aurora. but just a tad darker

[scottydl]

Saw two cruising along the same parkway last week within a few minutes, and just happened to have my digicam handy.


A dark cherry (I think) 2nd-gen, with WWII Veteran license plates... cool. White-haired petite lady driving, must be the vet's wife although I guess she could have been a nurse in WWII. Now that I look at the photo again, I think that's a Final 500!?




A black stock Classic a few miles later, also driven by an older gentleman. I waited until he turned so I could get a partial profile:




There are a few modded Auroras around town too, I'll try to get those photographed if I see them anytime soon.

[95mushroom]

Yea the 7-spokes would indicate a Final 500. Looks like it needs a wash though, that black classic looks really clean!
