Instant Karma

Posted on April 3, 2012 by Scrump

2012 Fisker Karma - Javits Convention Center, New York, NY

Instant Karma? A 400-horsepower hybrid electric/gas, 2-door sedan with interesting lines, but are we looking at the next DeLorean? Let’s hope not.

Managed to sneak in early and see what’s rolling out this year…a few surprises but mostly the same ol’ song and dance.

1963 Chevrolet Impala - Church St; Tribeca

The great thing about New York City is that every now and again you see a classic roll by. Sweet paint job too.

2005 Nissan 350Z - Fifth Avenue; Manhattan

Fun to drive. The Datsun 240Z is still my favorite but this chunky ride really sticks to the pavement.

The Art of Cars

1969 "NYC Parking Lot" (0il on Masonite, 23 3/4 x 36") by Richard Estes - National Academy of Design, NYC

I see a Buick, a Ford, a Chevy, a Plymouth and the tail light of a Corvair. Those colors are pretty awesome too. This painting can be seen at the National Academy of Design along with some great non-car related art by Will Barnet and others greats.

2007 Boeing AH-64 Apache - 5 Freeway South; near San Diego, California

Nothing quite like spotting a four-blade, twin-engine attack helicopter in your dashboard windshield when you are cruising along the coast highway on a sunny day. They cost about $20 million a pop – not sure how much they cost to fill up.
