Can you picture these guys creeping down a back street on deez and/or picking up women, literally?
I can.
222 inches never looked so good

Who knows, maybe he was just saving hisself a delivery fee.
Don’t try this with a non-convertible car.
I think I heard the Lexus say, “That was a close one, Michael.” Not sure though, it could have come from the CD I was playing.
Here’s the reverse angle:
A New Look for SFPD Radio Cars? Aerodynamic Light Bars Make All the Difference
Monday, February 8th, 2010Check out this SFPD prowler parked in the Funset District – groove on that funky, aerodynamic light bar on top.
Almost thought it was a fake from the filming of NBC’s horrible Trauma action/dramedy at first, but no, if you count the points on the big blue door star it comes up seven (and not eight) every time.
Fake Michael Schumacher will have even less of a chance of evading Park Station the next time he drives his Ferrari F355 Spyder to Haight Ashbury for a pint or five.
Maybe our City is just trying out something new…
The Loyal Hungarian Vizsla Dogs of San Francisco’s Inner Sunset
Monday, July 13th, 2009Can you guess which way the owner of this Audi A4 (chariot of the Yuppie) convertible headed out after parking on 9th Avenue?

So patient, so loyal these ginger pups are.
[UPDATE: Apparently they're not Irish Setters, they're Hungarian Vizslas. The More You Know....]
Forget About the Chrysler Bankruptcy, Get Your Imperial Out and Drive, Drive, Drive
Wednesday, July 8th, 2009I’m thinking this is a 1965 (Chrysler) Imperial Crown - check it out as it makes an appearance on the 101 freeway. Now you’d probably prefer to drive a 1960 model or even a Chrysler 300 letter series, but this white whale will do in a pinch.
Crank up the oldies on the AM radio and change the station whenever they start talking about having to bail out Detroit. No matter, this aging rig will certainly get you more friends than Sinatra.

Sold Out for Jesus in San Francisco
Monday, September 8th, 2008Yet another sell-out driving around in San Francisco in a Mercedes – that’s what you might think at first.
But the owner of this aging SL 500 convertible SOLD OUT FOR JESUS. That makes all the difference.
Apparently.
