"*" indicates appearance in a Gran Turismo game, or at the very least, shares similar appearances.
"+" indicates the car has been spotted at least more than once
- Saab 9-3+ Prior to spotting this car, I have never seen a Saab before. Since then, I have occasionally seen them every once in a while. Fun fact: they're also the same company that makes planes and fighter jets.
- Saab 900 Turbo+ Another car made by Saab. Looks nice.
- Toyota MR2 Spyder* I saw it in a parking lot one time while I was on a short stroll. Shoutout to Gran Turismo or I wouldn't have identified it (same goes for most cars in this list)
- 1959 (?) Fiat 500* I was legit surprised I even got to see a classic Fiat 500 at all! Usually, I'd see the modern versions of them. The car itself looks so small in person!
- Volkswagen Beetle 1200*+ Another classic car I'm surprised I spotted! I've always seen newer versions of the Volkswagen Beetle, so this is pleasant to see!
- Chevrolet Nova SS* I saw this car while I was queuing up at an intersection. Great to see more oldies popping up on the roads.
- Mazda RX-7 (FC)*+ It was hard to see at first since it was always parked in between cars while on the way to pick up my sister from school. Great to know it's this car after looking it up to confirm it.
- Pontiac Solstice GXP*+ Lol the front view of this car looks hilarious.
- Citroen 2CV Type A* Admittedly, it was hard to see since it passed through an intersection while I was behind traffic. But the shape and how its rear wheels were partially covered gave it away. If it really is a Citroen 2CV, then it would be the first time spotting a car that originated from France, on top of being one of the oldest cars I've ever spotted! The history behind this car is interesting too, and you might even consider it as a French equivalent to the Volkswagen Beetle.
- 1988 (?) Honda Accord Coupe* Honda Accords are common from where I live, but not an old one that is.
- Peugeot 106 S16*+ Another French car I've spotted and it brought a smile to my face. I've always seen it parked on the side of the road while heading home. Since I live in Canada, car manufacturers like Peugeot, Citroen, and Opel are pretty much don't exist unless you live somewhere in Europe or other parts of the world.
- Aston Martin DB9 Coupe* I don't know what to say about this other than identifying an Aston Martin for the first time.
- Fisker Karma Ecosport* This is such an obscure car so the fact I've spotted it at all is a miracle on top of it being a massive failure for its reliability issues and other problems.
- Nissan Sentra (B13) My grandfather used to drive this car when I was younger so it caught me by surprise while I was getting gas.
- Ferrari 488 GTB Saw it in an IKEA parking lot in matte pink (think of Jigglypuff's colour). Apparently, there's a silly rule Ferrari themselves made up that you can't paint their cars pink. But whoever owned that car decided to be a rebel and break it anyway lol.
- Porsche 944 Turbo I saw it in a grocery parking lot and mistook it as a Mazda RX-7 FC haha. Nice rims, though!
- Chevrolet Corvette C4* I actually wouldn't be able to see this car if my parents didn't decide to change plans on the fly while I was driving and going through a different road. So I would like to thank them for being able to spot one.
- 2004 Subaru Impreza WRX STI* Oh hey this is the same car that was used in Wakaliwood's Bad Black movie except it's blue. Apparently, this Subaru has a nickname of "blob eye" because of its headlights.
- Mazda Miata MX-5 (NC)*+ At the time of this post, there are four generations of the Mazda Miata which are NA, NB, NC, and ND. This was the last Miata generation I spotted so it is now complete!
- Honda Insight*+ This Honda is much less common than the Civics, Accords, and CR-Vs on the road.
- Abarth 500*+ It's basically a tuned-up version of a Fiat 500. Still awesome to see an Abarth, though!
- 1958 Chevrolet Impala To be honest, I didn't know what car it was, but I quickly saw the word 'Chevrolet' on the front which led me to find it online eventually (though I dunno why the images have a different badge on the front of the car).
- Honda Prelude (Fifth Generation)*+ This is another Honda that's significantly less common than the other ones I've seen on the road. It's unfortunate this name was discontinued for years now, but nice to see some people take good care of it.
- Chevrolet Corvette Stingray C2 Convertible* Is it bad that it gave me goosebumps when I saw this car on the highway, even though I only saw the rear view of it? Because not only it's another old car, it also means I have now seen seven out of eight generations of the Chevrolet Corvette! It'll be a huge ask to find the last one. Thankfully I wasn't driving or else I wouldn't have seen it otherwise!
- Nissan 240ZG* It's another car that was hard to see since I was behind traffic while it was passing through. Glad I saw it from a distance before it approached the intersection.
- BMW i8+ I guess this is another BMW in the list I'll be able to identify without struggle lol.
- 2001 Acura Integra Type R*+ The headlights on this car are so goofy that I like it.
- Dodge Neon SRT 4*+ This is one of the less common cars I've seen from the Dodge brand. Unlike the pictures I've linked to, they don't have a rear wing, so I don't know if it's just called the Neon or if it includes 'SRT 4'.
- Honda CR-X (second generation)*+ Another one of the names from Honda that has been discontinued for years. Really great to see it at all.
- Porsche Taycan Turbo S* This is is an interesting car. Not only is it electric, but it packs a lot of power as well with at least 750HP! Aside from Tesla cars today and a few exceptions, electric cars usually don't have a lot of power to show for. I'm really interested to see what the future holds for EV vehicles since some are already faster than cars with internal combustion engines (ICE).
- Mclaren 570s+ I like how this car looks at the front because it's almost as if it was smiling. I'd sometimes call it a happy boi whenever I come across one.
- Mitsubishi i-MiEV* I never thought I'd see the day I'd spot one.
- 2010 Mazda 2*+ In Canada, it's called the Mazda 2 but is known as the Mazda Demio Sport in other parts of the world. What's funny about this car is that the night before spotting it, I was trying it out in Gran Turismo 6... With the exact same green colour as well. Prior to spotting this car, I haven't seen it at all and it's either Mazda 3s, Mazda 5s, and anything not a Mazda 2. Since then, I'm seeing it quite a few times now.
- Scion xD+ The sole reason why I wanted to list this car is that its name is pretty much that of a lettered laughing emoji.
- 2003 Scion xB* If this was a Nissan, I would've called it a Nissan Rectangular Prism but it isn't lol.
- Volvo C30 R Design* It's great that I've spotted this car, even though I only saw the back of it for a short time.
- Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VIII* Since the tenth edition of the Lancer Evolution is fairly common, seeing the eighth edition is a nice change of pace.
