Here's an artist's rendering of what a Shelby GT500 Mustang could look like as a wagon: http://www.carthrottle.com/proof-that-a-mustang-gt500-shooting-brake-would-look-phenomenal/

It follows in the footsteps of the Ferrari FF production car, yours for only $683,000 here in Australia: http://www.carthrottle.com/reviews/ferrari-ff-review-stratospherically-expensive-monumentally-accomplished/

SMASA summer cruise

Just a few shots from Saturday night's Street Machine Association of South Australia cruise. Some very nice cars came out for a run, with a good mix of American muscle cars, hot rods, customs and cruisers in attendance.

I inadvertently came across a group of classic muscle cars on Port Wakefield Road in the late afternoon, and followed them down to the Gepps Cross shopping centre, where hundreds of awesome cars were filling up the parks.

It was hard to know where to point my camera, with so much tasty machinery rumbling past as the sun sank towards the horizon.

The final meet point was at West Lakes Mall, which is conveniently only a few minutes away from home.

My legs were aching after walking and standing around for a couple of hours at this point, so after snapping some shots of the cooler cars parked under the night lights, I headed back home.
