EVG correspondent Steven shared these photos from yesterday on Ninth Street between First Avenue and Second Avenue... someone left a note on that Dodge Rambler Marlin that's usually parked on the block...

"I want to buy your car!! Please call ... My grandma had one and it brings back great memories. XO"

Imitators already lining up to become the next Cadillac with the Tiger in it

Oh, nice try.

For the record, we flat-out rejected this proposed series: The Audi R8 V10 With a Tiger in It.

Sample passage:

"Italian White Alba truffles again for dinner. Sigh."

Previously on EV Grieve:
Today (last night) in photos of cars with starting costs of $114k on East 4th Street

And now, stories from the Cadillac with the Tiger in it on East 2nd Street

Dodge City: So long to the art car of East 11th Street

You've likely seen this Dodge over on East 11th Street between Avenue A and Avenue B...

The art car — titled Painting the Dodge, 20 years in the making — is the work of East Village-based artist Hanne "H7L" Lauridsen.

EVG contributor Stacie Joy caught up with H7L outside her studio on East 11th Street Sunday ...

Turns out that the car is off soon to Art Car World, an Arizona-based museum "dedicated entirely to the celebration and preservation of this popular mobile art form."

Happy trails.

Things that randomly appear on 1st Avenue around 1 a.m.

EVG reader Sam Teichman spotted this unattended vehicle early this morning between East Seventh Street and St. Mark's Place... seemingly came out of nowhere...

Also, can any car people out there let us know what this is...?

Car on East 4th Street celebrates 84th year of violating alternate-side parking rules

Oh! EVG contributor Derek Berg spotted this 1930 Buick on East Fourth Street last night...

Not sure what might be filming now ... or maybe there's just a 1930 Buick parked here for no good reason. Anyone?

That Cadillac that we've long admired on East 2nd St. now has a stuffed tiger on the front seat

Yes, this one on East Second Street. It has been for sale, and the addition of the stuffed tiger makes it all the more...

Thanks to EVG reader Ann for the photo.
