Five Cars That Stole the Wheels Show
A car show is a strange democracy. A six-figure restoration can park beside a car built with patience, stubborn taste, and questionable sleep habits—and the crowd might spend more time around the second one. Mike’s photographs from the October 17 Wheels show capture five machines worth crossing the lot to see twice.
These are our picks. Not necessarily the most expensive or fastest. The five that made us stop.
1. Silver Guerin Spyder
Low silver open-cockpit sports car. The associated profile calls it a Guerin Spyder; do not claim it is an original Porsche.

2. Blue-and-white vintage racer
Competition graphics, purposeful stance, and serious period-racing character. Specific model and year require confirmation.

3. Yellow NSX
Bright yellow Japanese sports car with a contrasting dark hood and an aggressive front end.

4. Red BMW E30
Compact red coupe, low stance, and prominent wheels: a clear statement of taste without needless theatrics.

5. Black RX-7-style coupe
Dark, low Japanese sports coupe. Associated profile lists a 1996 FD Mazda RX-7; verify this photographed car before stating the model year.

The verdict
Our cover vote goes to the silver Spyder, with the blue-and-white racer right behind it. Disagree? Good. Tell us which car we missed—and follow the people who keep these machines on the road.
