I've had that happens several times now. Reminds me of Wonder Woman and the Invisible jet. ;)
LOL, you beat me to it. That's exactly what I was thinking.

My favorite is when the car is invisible. I've had sims back out of the driveway and drive off in their invisible cars. You can see the sim but not the car. Too funny. :D
I noticed this happening a lot on the smaller sized lots. Especially when someone is returning to the lot - their little body is in the driving position and is moving down the street and the car "materializes" around the moving sim. On the smallest of lots, the sim is starting up the driveway before the car fully materializes.

I've had similiar "duh" moments with my car as well. Almost all my houses are on a foundation so my garage is actually a level below my "ground/first" floor. When my sims are moving around on the lower level (not in the garage) and my view is towards the garage, it looks like the garage is empty. Several times now I've gotten upset that the car must have been stolen and I missed the little animation, only to find that if I move to one level lower (the foundation level) I can suddenly see the car in the garage.
I'm surprised no one pointed out the fact that this situation described above is because the "Hide Objects" option in-game is On.

I suppose I shouldn't be so lazy. I've never changed that setting from what it was defaulted to and wasn't sure exactly how changing it would change the display. What's funny it that I can see some things on a lower level but not all things. For example, items at the side of the garage are visible but the car isn't. When I have a living room which is open to the second floor, when I'm on the second floor, I see my sim in a sitting position - with nothing else around - and when I switch to the lower level, suddenly a bunch of furniture becomes visible. I guess I'll be playing with my settings tonight to see what difference it makes. :-\

What's really strange is when you're on the first floor and you can see a sim on the second floor, but no furniture. I just snapped a photo for my sims' story of one sim "levitating" above two others who were in bed on the first floor. He was asleep in his bed on the second floor, above them, but the bed wasn't visible.
Also had that happen with a sim who was taking a bath on the second floor. Base game, pre-uni, no remove censor blur hacks, and there was no blur, just this naked teenage boy sitting in mid-air.
