-What makes you say that in 50 years, we'll never see them on the road? We still see Model Ts and As, as well as other old cars out and about. Plus they made so many more of the ones that are just 50 years old, so they're easier to find and won't be off the roads as easily.
-I've uploaded photos from my phone, nothing has gone wrong.
-Post more quality spots, and people will gain respect for you. You post cars that are either not exotic or very borderline, yet despite our efforts for you to spot you continued and refuse to take the ones down that aren't.


Then why is the section labeled "OTHER VINTAGE" then? That's for vintage cars


You don't understand. You ABUSE the "Other Vintage" category. Face facts, please.

Typically, one does not call 50 year old cars "Vintage". Plus, these cars have to have some amount of rarity among all other things. Yes, a car like an Allard or a Duesenberg obviously belong, but a Lincoln Continental or a Chevrolet Bel Air? Really? They made millions of the Bel Air and hundreds of thousands of the Continental. That doesn't deem them in any way acceptable for "exoticspotter.com".

Yes. Even Gregg told you personally that you abuse the Other category. You said it yourself.

The Chevrolet Bel Air is one of my most favorite cars. I've always wanted a 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air Convertible that was red and white

The reason why I do that is so I don't have to blow my whole inventory of photos. I'm worried I might never see a certain car again, so I save the good ones for until all the minor spots are posted

Please explain how you wanting a Bel Air makes it exotic.

Any time somebody mentions a car, they always use a Chevrolet Bel Air as an example. It's a classic cruise night car. I have only seen one on the road before

I've only seen one Citroen on the road in America. How is only seeing one Bel Air on the road relevant to making it considered exotic?

Guess what? The 1957 Bel Air coupe is one of my favorites as well. I don't go posting photos of it. I also love that era Lincoln Continental you posted earlier. Does that make it exotic? No.

Jason please do not get so upset and take everything so seriously. Your score only went down 4 points. As I told you before, some old non exotic photos are being deleted and some people's quality scores are going down a little until they post more photos again. It is not a big deal.

4 points is not a big deal. You will see tons of cars at Greenwich and it will go back up.
