Interesting car sightings

Thought I'd start a thread about interesting, unique cars seen in the wild.

Here's one I saw a could of days ago.

Looks like a BYD Shark. 430hp plug in hybrid with almost 600 mile range

No photos because I was moving, but they're testing Waymos in Atlanta and there's one that regularly shows up in the neighborhood of my office building. What a weird looking thing.

Two JDM cars I've seen around Joplin. Second one was a manual. Learning to shift lefty would be fun, but I fail to see the appeal on the whole.

I've seen a number of Actys around here in GMBA, and a Kei van drafting a semi trailer up in Maine. I'm not sure if it's some sort of flex or actually practical for work.

Shifting left handed isn't hard, but you will forever hit the windshield wipers instead of the turn signal.

100% my experience driving a van around New Zealand for a week; windshield wiper as turn signal the entire time.
Used the windshield wiper for the turn signal for a week down under. Then flew home, and promptly used the windshield wiper for the turn signal leaving the airport.

Not all cars switch the stalks, I rented a Ford in NZ that did not.

Yeah, our car in NZ had the stalks switched, but our car in the UK last year did not even though the steering wheel was obviously on the right side for both haha.
