Google Street View Challenge

[straight6pwr]

tough one, since getting street view photos that were updated in the last few years is harder to do. basically none of Germany has been updated since like 2010, it seems.

I found a Rolls-Royce Camargue which is sadly not BMW powered but only 531 were ever made, and who knows how many even made it to the US.

That is all... Still hunting...

[Jdesign]

A few RR's that a BMW pictured. sadly I cant get closer,

So here is another

And then I tried to find a Morgan Aero 8, but even the factory doesnt have any outside...

find the google street view car in street view. to make it harder, it cannot be the impreza version.

Does this count? It turns out that downtown Chicago they uses multiple Hyundai Elantra hatchbacks(blue, white, grey), but getting a good image of one reflected in the windows of the big buildings proved to be harder than expected.
