The anime fan in me wanted to get a couple of photos of a Mitsubishi Lancer Evo, "just because".
There was a Lancer there, but I don't think it's an Lancer Evolution.
Taken at the 2007 Ottawa-Gatineau Autoshow at the Ottawa Congress Centre.

At the General Motors display in the parking lot of the Athens Coney Island diner in the Detroit suburb of Royal Oak during the Woodward Dream Cruise, possibly the highlight for many people was the presence of the four General Motors vehicles used as the vehicular forms of several of the most prominent Autobots.
From what I understand, under the Chevy Camaro shell, Bumblebee was actually built on the chassis of a modern Pontiac GTO.
UPDATE, July 8th, 2008: I've drawn an oil pastel drawing of the "Bumblebee" Chevy Camaro Concept car based on this photo.
COTC: Added to the Cream of the Crop pool as the "Most Interesting" photo in my photostream according to Flickr.

The AMC Forum 22, in the bowels of the former Montreal Forum, is the largest cinema in downtown Montreal, larger than even the Famous Players Paramount cinema, and it opened in May 2001.
FLICKR GEOTAGGING NOTE: This isn't Westmount, this is the western extremities of downtown Montreal. The Westmount border cuts through Plaza Alexis-Nihon, a block and a half to the west of Lambert-Clossé.
2006: YOUR HIGHEST RATED: The most views of any photo that I took this year, even if there are no comments or favourites.

They're both 1/24 scale models from Maisto; the "new" Ford Mustang GT with the Montreal Canadiens logos on it is an special NHL commemorative car made by Maisto for Top Dog Collectables, while the plain blue 1960's Mustang GT is a screw-together "Assembly Line" kit.
By the way, yes, I am aware of the incongruity of having a car with a Montreal Canadiens logo on an American flag, so nobody needs to point it out.
