You’re not going to convince me that a Liberty Walk Nissan GTR makes sense. Taking one of the fastest truly useable road cars in the world and turning it into a slammed and widened show-car just isn’t for me and what I enjoy about my cars. The 1/18 resin cast from GT Spirit; that’s clearly a different story.
RWB. RAUH-Welt BEGRIFF. ROUGH-World CONCEPT. Makes sense this insane thing is a concept somehow. I absolutely love this trend of over-fenders and pasta-pot depth rims, not that this car is logical on roads in any way but screw it, have a 1/18 RWB993 from GT Spirit!
OMG I’ve been waiting for this thing for so long!
I talk to philipilihp too much...
Ladybots and gentlemaniacs; the Superfly/HW car.
When we heard that the TTB had indeed finally landed in The Netherlands, something had to be done. Something that would be easier to achieve if carried out by a team; Opponauts Unite!
Since everyone, myself included, is busy drooling on their keyboard over the new Shelby GT350R iteration of the new Ford Mustang, I’m going to present one of my many blue-with-white-stripes Shelby cars just for a kick. I have newer Mustangs as well as more ‘epic’ American cars, but I have a thing for old blue Shelbys…
Sothe Dutch Airline KLM has/had a promotion where certain people could get these porcelain houses which are meant to mimic specific houses in large cities in Holland. They’re also filled to the brim with Bols Gin. I stopped drinking years ago so now I’ve just got these houses filled with gin all over my house, and as…
Ohh my, this is a special one. That insane ground effects package, the slide-open side windows, the supremely sticky Pirelli’s. This car is not made for McDonalds and the local mall, it is going to be horrible at speed bumps and might literally shatter the windows of some of the homes in whatever area is lucky enough…
I have had this model for a while now, and this is it’s third different setup since I got it, when it sat higher on stock Porsche Supercup wheels. Those Supercups, which I did like, were not really great quality up close and originally got swapped with some nicer quality, thought identical, ones. I like it this new…
You can customize a modern Porsche direct from the factory in almost any way you could really want; from picking elegant paint and wheel combinations to adding carbon fiber/aluminum/alcantara and even leather in places that you didn’t even previously know existed or needed leather. Body kits and lap timers, the…
Of all the cars that have been made which do not conform to road-car regulations, and are therefore illegal to drive on the street, isn’t this really the greatest one? To even begin to think about basing a race car of this extremity on a Grand Touring car is just insane, the weight alone is detrimental to any type of…
I have such a fascination with this still-relatively-obscure car manufacturer; the engineering solutions in this car alone stand out in a world left sorely wanting of truly maniacal ingenuity. Many supremely fast and expensive vehicles exist nowadays with which to test the limits of road-car technology, or to cruise…
Just some diecast Porsche 918 Spyder love to inaugurate the new blog!
My first Hour Rule!
Sometimes someone says something to you and it just sparks an idea in your mind. Other times it reminds you that you’ve been forgetting something important. Like a 1/18 Porsche 918 Spyder Prototype that has been cowering with some other diecast friends in a box since my latest trans-Atlantic move, waiting for the day…
You know that intake when you see it; that slab of after-thought on the fender which now resonates loudly in your mind screaming “COUNTACH! COUNTAAAAACCH!!!” as your eyes move over the flowing-yet-angular lines. Yes, ladies and gentlemen, It’s a Lamborghini Countach, in LP500 S flavor, courtesy of Kyosho and featured…
Jaguar XJ220. What an oddball piece of automotive history, sitting half-forgotten in that same niche as is occupied by two of the world’s undisputed greats; the Ferrari F40 and Porsche 959. The Jaguar was the fastest production car for 1992, and this was the machine that the mighty McLaren F1 had to beat to set it’s…
A long, sloping bonnet? Side pipes between the doors and front wheels? No windshield? Silver? 2009 Mercedes Benz SLR Stirling Moss is the answer you were looking for. The lightweight, limited edition, higher powered version of the Mercedes-McLaren designed SLR which, in itself, was designed to evoke something in…
Not many four-door vehicles can elicit the type and level of enthusiasm that the BMW M5 does. Each successive generation surpasses not only the preceding, but also the multitudes of competitors that have only now just caught up to the whirlwind of capabilities of the outgoing model. We each have our favorite…
