That is Sal Barone. look him up. dude can jump on top of that car if he wants to, he pretty much built it, and he’s pretty much the only guy qualified to fix it.

Agreed, which is why I hope they stop with the power wars, leave HP for AMG, 4WD for Audi RS’s and go back to making light, fun RWD sports sedans.

Is there any other British car from the pages of time with any hope of taking the “most expensive ever” title now?

I said this in the earlier thread when the pictures leaked, and I’ll say it again: every 4WD car with regular ground clearance should have RWD only as an option. It would be a good way to appease enthusiasts of old-school driving dynamics while keeping the ‘safe’ aspect of 4WD handy in case you need it. It’s a…

This, if it is what it appears to be, is what all 4WD cars with regular ground clearance should have as an option. This makes me OK with the idea of a 4wd M5, because if I had one I would have it on RWD mode all the time...

yep!

Can you imagine Jim Glickenhaus bringing the Boot back to Baja?! That would be a sight to behold!!!

Petrolicious just posted this photo of the car at Monterey. It looks GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD

With all this shit news coming from America lately, having read about this makes me extra happy. Nice to see there are still cool things happening up in your country....

Much cooler than a Defender.

The quality of the Bugatti, “like a swiss watch”, even in its lightness, already makes the comparison moot. I get why he said it but it was a shitty comparison. 

I can’t believe Chris called Ettore Bugatti a 1930's Colin Chapman.

That SWB, if real, was by far the coolest thing you saw!

Brazilian here: Beware, the Kombi only got the radiator face in 2005. Something is not correct about this car, either the age is misrepresented, or the owner has made it look like one of the “last edition” Kombis by sticking a fake ass radiator housing up front. Why anyone would do that is beyond me, but... CP for…

My dad had a 964 Turbo just like that one. Man do I miss it....

I hate Formula E so much...

Because it gets them positive coverage even if it doesn’t end up happening. I hope it does, but Renault is clearly milking the attention which they desperately need after the Red bull debacle and poor results...

I always thought it had to do with the trunk not opening properly, but I guess it’s all about aesthetes and their refusal to bow to function over form...

When are you sending Torchinsky down to Brazil, land of the air cooled VW?

The Halo is there to stop big things like the wheel that killed Henry Surtees or Justin Wilson, or the impact with the trucks that resulted in the deaths of Jules Bianchi and (possibly) Maria de Villota.
