An art car to be locked away for one person to appreciate. That doesn’t seem like the spirit of it either. In that case drive it in public so everyone can have a look in person.

LOL, yeah I’m always worried about that and every time I park it after driving hard there are smells. Burning this, melting that, immolated other thing, boiling fluids, who knows what else. I do think the ones that actually light on fire have modified exhausts and removed heat shielding. Although I’m sure there have…
I’m not sure that any Lamborghini should be “stored safely.” I would prefer they would be driven furiously and often, however not recklessly and into a tree. I recently purchased an older Gallardo with a real manual gated shifter and have managed to put 5,000 miles on it in the last 10 months of ownership. Previous to…
I feel the same exact way. However, take that prelude and replace it with almost any level crapiness car with a V8 and I’m enjoying it all day.
That’s surprising, I have a stock Gallardo and unless I literally sat in front of someone’s house revving I don’t think its quite loud enough to piss anyone off. I would think it would have to be a cop in a pretty bad mood already to do that.
The part of your comment I’m going to have to disagree with here is that you don’t think any motor sounds good past 4k RPM. This is strange, I love the sound of a nice deep V8 or V10 (in their very different ways) screaming towards redline. Especially V10's sound best when they are wound out. I also used to have a…
This is one of the most wonderful videos I have ever seen. Just let go of any preconceived notions of what you are or aren’t supposed to like, just turn the volume up and the sub to 10. Let the sound of that motor and that mad truck ripping shit apart enter your brain and let its awesomeness be one with you. Fuckin…
I guess we’ll chalk it up to interesting camera angle, combined with a touch of osteoporitic shrinkage, and a sprinkle of magic.
Yes, I realized that is what we all theorize it is, I was more commenting on the effectiveness of that camouflage. I have been following the Zora closely. It will be a huge deal when it comes out. I see it as a direct attack at the 458/488 and Huracan. I have a feeling GM is going to hit another home run with this…
I can see the windshield and the rear left hip... Hmm, not a lot of conclusions that I’m able to draw from that one... camouflage is working.
I don’t understand why it looks like that S-class is nearly the same height as Bernie. I looked it up and he is 5'3" tall. The S class is nowhere near that height. I would normally think its an optical illusion based on his distance to the vehicle, but he’s touching the door so he’s not far away from it. Anybody know…
This is one of the strangest and most needlessly homophobic things I have ever heard. I’m going to assume he was actually joking however... based on the context of the show it was said on.
Hold on... Fuel injectors in the throttle body spacer??? Or methanol / water injection to keep down detonation? I’ve never heard of fuel injection at the throttle body, I would think that would definitely cause detonation. Methanol I have seen in a version pushing out over 600 RWHP.
The air for the radiator / engine cooling came from underneath, what went into the nostrils did feed directly into the air filter / intake. I remember we removed the baffles inside so that we could get “force fed air” at speed. LOL. We were young and didn’t realize all that would do is get more rain water in during…
I’m here to actually support Raphael. In my life so far I have been fortunate enough to own many varied and interesting cars. They started out very common and have continued along to more exotic levels. I started with a Ford Probe, Then a Supra Turbo (Gen III not IV), then a turbo Probe, then a Mercury Sable, then…
I think my favorite is how the tweeters rotate out. That’s a really cool effect. I’m also still trying to figure out what the lights above the drive and passenger are for and why those need to open and close...
I now believe that 3,760 lb (1,710 kg) is the weight of the 2016 ZL1. I think that’s still pretty damned good.
The following wiki would tend to disagree with you. Not that everything on wiki is factual, but I’m leaning toward believing this one: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chevrolet…
I owned a 1989 Supra Turbo. It was probably the biggest pile of shit from the list of cars I’ve owned. Mostly in terms of just how many things broke and how consistently it happened. I did love the adjustable suspension which I found gave an amazing smooth ride while retaining good handling. In stock form the old I-6…
You may be right about that too... Ah well this is all I can find: “The 2016 Camaro is roughly 200 pounds (90 kg) lighter (depending on model) than the outgoing Camaro, creating a more nimble and responsive driving experience.” Problem is I’m not sure 200 lbs lighter than which of the outgoing models... they had quite…
