"You will know McLaren has truly arrived when Ferrari releases a car called a 'McLaren fighter'!" Sorry, but McLaren's level of success is not dependent on Ferrari's acknowledgement of their accomplishments — Ferrari is too proud to do that anyway. The fact that you think Ferrari's approval is required for a competing…

Should've used a picture of Rarity. Rainbow Dash is the tomboy of the group, and therefore the least likely to care about sparkly things.

I know this because reasons.

I've always been a big fan of the S7. It was one of my favourite cars as a kid, and I finally got to see/hear an S7 TT Competition in person a couple of months ago at the local Cars and Coffee event — it's definitely impressive in person. The owner also has an F40 LM, which he shows every now and then.

If your car's parts are rare enough to warrant using a 3D printer in the first place, I think making digital models of the parts that are most likely to break would be worthy of consideration; it wouldn't be such a big deal if you were going to rebuild the engine anyway. Although mostly I think the scanning/printing…

They have 3D scanners now, too — so if you have a part you want to reproduce, you can scan it, print it, make a mold, and cast it. You can print straight to metal if you have access to a 3D printer that makes metal parts, but that's probably really expensive, even if you have it done by a company specializing in such…

But why is his spelling/grammar nearly perfect if he's totally wasted? It's just weird, man.

Old cars can be a lot of fun without being fast. My brother's turbo Miata is pretty quick and plenty of fun in its own way, but we both enjoy a good run in the 200ci straight-6 Fairlane. Yeah, it probably doesn't have over 200 crank hp — in fact, it's probably closer to 150, if I had to guess. But at idle the lumpy…

What can I say — my inner redneck has a thing for car bodies on truck frames.

You're new at trolling, aren't you? Better luck next time.

More tastefully restored/modified SSPs aren't too hard to find in that price range or lower. Crack pipe without a doubt.

One of these days maybe you could post a NP/CP car that isn't obviously one or the other — that'd make it a little more interesting, maybe.
Like this near-perfect, rust-free, 32k-mile SVO. On the one hand, it's fairly rare in this condition, but on the other hand it's nearly $14k. http://tinyurl.com/pltlznb

Good points, although I'd like to point out that while not all crazy people are evil, some evil people may very well be crazy as well — and shouldn't get off easy for the evilness with the "I'm crazy" excuse.

I've wanted one of these for a long time. Someday...

I remember when this one was on CL in my area awhile back — I actually stole this picture from the Jalopnik article about it. heh heh

Your phrasing kind of suggests that your average car guy just sort of cobbled it together in between "beer breaks and naps" like some lazy drunk redneck or something, but considering the rather significant amount of success this car has had what with winning all those trophies and being featured on the Speed Channel…

A Flyin' Miata turnkey V8 swapped Miata is around $40k IIRC, and the work and mods on this one go far beyond just car + engine + transmission. I wouldn't buy it, but try building its equivalent for under $25k. $36k is a high asking price, but he's advertising on CL, and therefore is probably expecting considerable…

Yeah I work at ZF and idk about the Evoques that get sold to customers, but from what I've seen and heard so far, the test mules look and sound like trash after 50k or so. Of course, they've probably had a dozen transmission swaps each, and they don't get babied by any means. The 2-door versions sure do look good…

hee hee you said "hindsight." A 3+ year old female deer may be called a "hind."

I'd give blood for $50. Can I do it twice?

Maybe he owed them multiple male deer which were worth $800 each.
