first thing I thought too. Although I don't think it's a bad thing

Hertz Rent a racer Shelbys
Old or new, the gold stripes are timeless...

I have seen this before, can't exactly remember the film, but it had me laughing uncontrollably at the dramatization of it all

The V8 Supercars Nissan GT-R is my favorite, One of the first to arrive in Australia

Wouldn't call them beaters - they are straighter than three quarters of the sh!tboxes that turn up to Drift events in New Zealand...

or a non wing - when those things go, they go...

Truly inspirational.
There is another group of amazing people called Accessible Racing (www.accessibleracing.com) who provide driving experiences focused predominantly on wounded war vets. I love hearing about these people who want to make racing available to everyone.

Could be fun to play a really expensive game of tug'o'war with this thing...
That's the only thing I could think of doing with it

If Bristol IS NOT a weird company, can someone explain why the last of their aircraft told a different story....?

Toyota 5S-FE. Powered Millions of Camrys and reliable, yet I have never once heard its name pop up in conversation.

In New Zealand, we generally pronounce it soo-baah-ru. Watching WRC as a kid, I had no idea what these soo-ba-ru things were that looked an awful lot like a Legacy sedan...

I raced my Racer. Was no Racer at all....definitely a wrecker

I had an asshat former colleague who actually butchered the Lotus badge, replacing the name "Lotus" with Isuzu. He then printed it out on vinyl several times, and proceeded to replace the badges with the doctored logo on his Isuzu Irmscher SUV (which already had the "handling by Lotus" badges on it).
That same douche…

The NSU Ro80 was probably comparable in relation to the Roadpacer. A 995c.c powerplant in a chassis that was considerably smaller than the Holden HJ platform used for the Mazda...

Perhaps what's even more surprising is who makes them. As TTAC also noted, the manufacturers of manual wagons include Mini, Subaru and even Cadillac but not stalwarts like BMW, Mercedes-Benz or Volvo.
