Well the first one is the very rare Red X, I hear they fetch 9 figures at Barret (sp?) auctions. Second is a Chevy Corvette, Chevy's singular good idea since the 70's (you can tell from that ugly yellow thing called a Camaro, and the very ugly flat red thing, surprisingly, also called a Camaro). Other than the Peterbilt and Kenworth Tractor Trailers and the Cougar I pretty much couldn't tell you much about the other cars, other than approximate years. Though I do love that Cougar!



EDIT: The first pic (has an extra http at the beginning) is also a Corvette, looks like a Stingray maybe? Either way, the 'Vette is Chevy's sports car, fast, RWD, and excellent handling, perfect for a road course. They've been made since the '50's and just keep getting better and better, but we won't mention the 80's.

Is that a smart car I see peeking from behind the Peterbilt? I don't think it is, because any car that calls itself "smart" wouldn't go near those rusted steelies.

Yeah, I'm sure it's just a little car that seems quite common on your side of the pond (we need to start getting them, except those tractor trailers carry quite a punch, especially at highway speeds) I just wanted to find a place for that lame joke. Do you have Tractor Trailers on your side of the pond? Excuse my ignorance, but I've never been there (Germany some day).

if you mean tractor units and trailers as we call them, then yes, but ares are not as HUGE.
