    That photo was taken close to the Heineken brewery in Amsterdam, tourist can book a tour there and after the tour they are allowed to drink all the free beer they can for 15 minutes or so.


    I know where the ower of that Caprice is living, on a houseboat close to the city of Haarlem
    (that's where the name Harlem, NY originates from)

    I've never seen it at American car shows, or met the owner in person.
    I think that it's just a daily driver for someone who likes slow V8's.

    I even showed a photo, it's a sedan.
    (Rob's wagon is in the background of this Google Streetview screenshot)

    Here's a Streetview screenshot showing where the Caprice was parked, right where that grey Volkswagen is in this photo:

    Here's what you see looking at the other side of the street, compare it with the photo from the first post:
