A Seinfeld Father’s Day Special - Rodeo Drive Concours in Beverly Hills (Jun 18, 2012) Wait....my posts aren't lined up with where I posted them....
A Seinfeld Father’s Day Special - Rodeo Drive Concours in Beverly Hills (Jun 18, 2012) Now that's a cool quad cycle.
Not One, but Two Ford GT40s Up for Auction at Monterey (Jun 15, 2012) Yes Jason, that's normal.
Uday Hussein’s Ferrari F40 Still Collecting Dust in Iraq (Jun 10, 2012) I may have found my F40. I think I'm going to make some calls this evening.
Uday Hussein’s Ferrari F40 Still Collecting Dust in Iraq (Jun 10, 2012) Wow...that's a rare BMW right there.
Kim Kardashian Gives Kanye West a Lamborghini Aventador (Jun 10, 2012) I agree with Adam. why is this even news? This is as bad as reporting on that idiot kid and his chromed out Karma.
Driver Owns 2013 Mustang GT/CS for 8 Hours Before Wrapping it Around Tree (Jun 08, 2012) I don't think they do impact tests for this...but they'd be interesting to see. This guy is lucky.
Lincoln MKF Design Study Grabs Our Attention (Jun 08, 2012) I think you're trying to hard to see things that aren't there.
Italian Exotic Icons: Ferrari F40 (Jun 07, 2012) This is the only Ferrari I will ever buy. If I can find one in the correct color, with the right history and upkeep (and the right price), I will buy it. I've worked smart and hard to get to where I'm at, and one day soon, my car will be for sale. Not sure why I waxed poetic a out it, but I've owned several exotics, but this has always been at the top if my list.
Lincoln MKF Design Study Grabs Our Attention (Jun 07, 2012) Honestly, this looks fantastic. Every time I look at the pics, I think about how amazing it would look parked next to my other cars.
Lincoln MKF Design Study Grabs Our Attention (Jun 07, 2012) More Estoque than the suv.
Lincoln MKF Design Study Grabs Our Attention (Jun 07, 2012) You guys are trying too hard to not like this. I see zero Camaro in the front of this. With the protruding nose, and the hard lines in front of the wheel arches? No, no Camaro here. The only thing in common is the long hood and gun slit windows, but then the 300 has those does that mean the Camaro looks like the 300? If anything, thus is very 300ish, but much sleeker.
Lincoln MKF Design Study Grabs Our Attention (Jun 07, 2012) I'd this rear were on the model, it would be significantly better, almost flawless.
Lincoln MKF Design Study Grabs Our Attention (Jun 07, 2012) The front and middle are sharp, but the rear lets it down.
Lincoln MKF Design Study Grabs Our Attention (Jun 07, 2012) I think you guys are thinking "lines" not "curves".
Must-See: 1,200hp Underground Racing Twin-Turbo Lambo Aventador (Jun 06, 2012) Unless gearing has been changed and Aero improved, I don't see it dethroning the Veyron. I would expect mid 250s though.
Brazil’s First Supercar Renamed DoniRosset (Jun 05, 2012) Preston, you've obviously never owned nor known anyone that owned a Lamborghini. This is actually quite refreshing compared to my Gallardo. Longer nose, more dramatic lines, and more exclusive.
Brazil’s First Supercar Renamed DoniRosset (Jun 05, 2012) Horn buttons...not nitrous. Wow. just wow.
Brazil’s First Supercar Renamed DoniRosset (Jun 05, 2012) Preston, if you weren't such a young kid, you would know this, and most Brazilian cars are quite unique looking. Get some perspective before you type or talk.
Brazil’s First Supercar Renamed DoniRosset (Jun 05, 2012) Preston, is there a car you DON'T see in this and every other car?
$3.8 Million Vintage Mercedes Stolen in WWII Heading Back to Rightful Owners (Jun 04, 2012) I think they forgot what happens when you're on the losing end of the war... Why is this even an issue? Only a selfish, self-righteous prick would pull this kind of crap. If I lost this in court, I'd destroy the car, after I got my jollies in it, and drove the wheels off. In short, I'd get my 3.8m out of it. I hate frivolous litigation, and this is a great example.
What Alfa Romeo’s MX-5-based Roadster Could Look Like (Jun 03, 2012) Miata's have never really been chick cars, except to closed minded idiots.
Shattered Dreams - Failed Supercars Time has Forgotten (May 31, 2012) I would buy a reproduction of that. Especially if it stayed under $120 grand and had an updated power plant and suspension.
Corvette Z06 Black Widow by Mookster Sitting on HRE Wheels (May 30, 2012) This is a perfect looking Corvette.
Steven Tyler Officially Reveals His Hennessey Venom GT Spyder (May 30, 2012) As someone with a few high end cars, I see the speed appeal, but I wouldn't part with 1.1m for this. I would take my Gallardo to UR and get the same performance, better looks, quality, brand, pedigree, for half the price. This is a dick measuring stick to size up with the Tautara, Veyron, CCX, Agera, etc, and when compared to those, this is rather boring.
Steven Tyler Officially Reveals His Hennessey Venom GT Spyder (May 30, 2012) OK, I finally found something I really like about this car: the stitching on the pads. So far the rest isn't worth a million to me. I think its being artificially kept high due to a very small run. If they were doing 100 cars, this would be 600 large, and would be about right for what it is. For 1.1mil I want something that will be noticed, this is too easy to ignore and looks like a kit. Sorry Steve, but your project doesn't match the S7.
Dodge Charger Smashes Open Road World Record (May 30, 2012) Its the light angle and the big racing slicks.
Gumball 3000 2012 Kicks Off in NYC; Chills in Indianapolis (May 28, 2012) I almost did it this year. Something more important came up. There's always next year.
Special Edition Renault Twingo RS Red Bull Racing RB7 Revealed (May 27, 2012) Who's not relaxed?
Mega-Gallery from Moscow - Tuning Show Takes Place in the Capital (May 27, 2012) Ha ha, that was hilarious!
Special Edition Renault Twingo RS Red Bull Racing RB7 Revealed (May 26, 2012) As for the center stack, the only thing that matters for driving on the track is the tachometer. The rest is just a distraction, and rarely are needed. I drive by the tach alone even on the street most times, if not by sound alone. If I'm looking at the speedo, its only to check what gear I'm in while on the street. In my fully manual transmission cars I only check it to verify speed before setting cruise. Eyes up at all times.
The Power of Cool: 1961 C1 Corvette Discovered (May 25, 2012) Panels are easy to repair, the critical stuff is good.
The Power of Cool: 1961 C1 Corvette Discovered (May 25, 2012) Optimistic speedometer. This interior is in great shape!
Aston Martin DBS/DB9 Successor Cruises the ‘Ring in Silver (May 25, 2012) You're on crack. This is arcing, the camaro is flat.
Dutch Start-Up Vencer Unveil New Sarthe Supercar (May 25, 2012) That's a weird line in the door, creates a very dramatic shadow. I'm not sure it adds anything though. Very distracting from the belt line.
Dutch Start-Up Vencer Unveil New Sarthe Supercar (May 25, 2012) I see more RX7 than Corvette, but a lot more Ridge Racer. This is a beautiful design.
Dutch Start-Up Vencer Unveil New Sarthe Supercar (May 25, 2012) I don't see 458, but I do see F1. This is beautiful.
Aston Martin DBS/DB9 Successor Cruises the ‘Ring in Silver (May 24, 2012) Thanks, and they never look bad.
Aston Martin DBS/DB9 Successor Cruises the ‘Ring in Silver (May 24, 2012) Its a little more shapely in the rear quarter, and has a narrow mid section when compared to the corners. Looks more agile and aggressive, without being over the top.
Aston Martin DBS/DB9 Successor Cruises the ‘Ring in Silver (May 24, 2012) You're over thinking it.
Take Your Pick: 2013 NASCAR Toyota Camry or Ford Fusion (May 24, 2012) Ford hasn't owned Aston in a few years now.
Aston Martin DBS/DB9 Successor Cruises the ‘Ring in Silver (May 24, 2012) I'm looking forward to the announcement. I can't wait to trade my Vantage in.
McLaren Launch MP4-12C in Abu Dhabi with Stunning Video (May 24, 2012) If there's no drama in it, what makes it any different than a Corvette or a camaro for that matter? Its not just speed, but that sense of being on the ragged edge, doing something purely amazing, where you have to be on your game or there will be consequences. Look at the few that underestimated their Lamborghinis recently. The fact that the bulls are nuts is part of the mystique.
1979 Porsche 911 Turbo Bought New by Bill Gates Heading to Auction (May 24, 2012) Aww, Michael thinks its okay to kill grandma and the kids so he can benefit. Get a grasp on eugenics boy-o.
1979 Porsche 911 Turbo Bought New by Bill Gates Heading to Auction (May 23, 2012) I hope Bill Gates chokes on his breakfast. I'm sorry, but his sweeping support and endorsement of eugenics is a no go for me.
McLaren Launch MP4-12C in Abu Dhabi with Stunning Video (May 23, 2012) 290mph is doable, but keeping it reliable is the issue there, and that's ignoring streetablity.
McLaren Launch MP4-12C in Abu Dhabi with Stunning Video (May 23, 2012) Drove one at VIR. Its an amazing car, but it is missing something. Its not soul, but more like...danger. Its so well engineered that it never feels out of sorts, and has absurdly high limits. You never feel like you're going to beat the car. Never like it's going to snap, turn into the Hulk, and kill you. Its amazing. A bit boring to look at though.
2013 BMW M6 Convertible Poses in the Cali Countryside; Abuses the Track (May 23, 2012) I'm not sure what you guys are looking at. This is one of the ugliest series in BMW's stable. Its overweight, oversized, and has tons of wasted everything.
Weekly DFA: How Not to Treat A Lamborghini Murcielago Roadster (May 23, 2012) Bobby is absolutely right. Its why I drive mine every chance I can justify (insurance allowances).
Top Ten Most Powerful Cars Ever Made (May 22, 2012) Nothing wrong with celebrating a good home grown auto.
2013 SRT Viper GTS: You’ve Seen it, Now Hear it (May 22, 2012) HP per liter is a relevant comparison for street cars, and efficiency, but its not the end of the discussion. Its a benchmark, nothing more.
Ferrari P4/5 Competizione Sets New Nurburgring Lap Record (May 21, 2012) I love the sarcasm!
The Emperor’s New Shoes - Bugatti Veyron Wears Forgiatos (May 18, 2012) Looks so much better!
Another Lamborghini Fail - Gallardo Spyder LP560-4 Kisses the Curb (May 18, 2012) I do agree about hooning it up in parking lots, lots of room to execute great stuff, and little risk of making a total hash of it.
The Pagani Story Told in Five-Part Video Series (May 18, 2012) Except for the name...saying it is hilarious.
The Need for Speed: The World's Fastest Police Cars (May 18, 2012) I have to agree the vauxhall version is mad and I love it.
Japanese Sports Cars, Part 5: Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution (May 17, 2012) I've seen the Cyborg R converted to evo spec engine, bad ass.
Japanese Sports Cars, Part 5: Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution (May 17, 2012) Thank you, and I agree. My preference is the V or VI.
Japanese Sports Cars, Part 5: Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution (May 17, 2012) Eclipse GSX was a us market car only, and honestly wasn't as good as the evo.
Japanese Sports Cars, Part 4: The Mazda MX-5 Miata (May 17, 2012) Two motorcycle engines put together by Radical Motorsports. Early prototype based on two 1000cc engines. I think they're making a 2.4l now. Revs like a bike, sounds like an f1 v8 at full whack. Easy to drive, easy to enjoy.
Another Lamborghini Fail - Gallardo Spyder LP560-4 Kisses the Curb (May 17, 2012) To be blunt, those of you that want to hate on this guy because of unrelated accidents need to get over yourselves. No one was in immediate danger. No one was injured. No property was damaged. In fact, other than a scrape on the curb, this looked like good, safe, fun.
Another Lamborghini Fail - Gallardo Spyder LP560-4 Kisses the Curb (May 17, 2012) I saw the other video. He wasn't showboating for a camera. That was a normal, run of the mill fender bender. This was a "no one is in the immediate area, lets do something fun" moment. No one was hurt, and had be nailed it, most would have called him a parking lot hero.
Shelby GT500 Low Rider Rolling on Vossen CV3 Wheels (May 17, 2012) Needs more rubber.
Shelby GT500 Low Rider Rolling on Vossen CV3 Wheels (May 17, 2012) It looks well stanced. I would prefer a slight rake and a little more rubber in the rear, but this isn't my car. It looks good.
Another Lamborghini Fail - Gallardo Spyder LP560-4 Kisses the Curb (May 17, 2012) As someone that owns a few hand built cars, I'll do whatever the hell I want with them. If I want to beat on them with hammers and set them on fire, its my prerogative, there's nothing you can do, and no reason you should care, about it.
Ferrari 458 Spider Monaco Edition is One of Three by Mansory (May 17, 2012) The buttresses is the one part of the spider I absolutely hate. The rest of the car is fantastic though.
SEAT Bringing New Ibiza SC Trophy & Leon Supercopa to Worthersee Tour (May 17, 2012) Those were likely on the track for the photo, the car was added later.
Nissan GT-R Track Pack Vs. Porsche 997 Turbo S by Chris Harris (May 17, 2012) My head almost bought the GTR. My soul bought the 911 in onyx black GT2 flavor. The flat 6 sings a song of lust and magic, while the GTR grunts like two hogs in the back of the pen.
Japanese Sports Cars, Part 5: Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution (May 17, 2012) OK, there was a mention of the Galant. I should have read the whole thing first, however, even though the evolution cars were amazing, what made them so was the cost. Racing coats were cheap, consumer coats were cheap. It was a cheap, fun car. Where the GTO wasn't cheap, but was amazingly fast and stable.
Japanese Sports Cars, Part 5: Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution (May 17, 2012) Great to tweak, but not a driver's car. Too many intrusive computers. Its a tool for fast driving, but like the GTR, when I drove it, I didn't feel connected. Fast,? Yeah. Rewarding? No. I will stick to older models that require a human to do more than sit in the seat.
Japanese Sports Cars, Part 5: Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution (May 17, 2012) The GTO, VR4, Pajero.... No performance here. I guess because they're Japanese market cars, they don't count?
Another Lamborghini Fail - Gallardo Spyder LP560-4 Kisses the Curb (May 17, 2012) Not enough lock or throttle modulation. Driver inexperience was likely a factor in this video.
Is the Aventador, LFA or MP4-12C a Match for the Bugatti Veyron? (May 16, 2012) It's stunning to look at, no disagreement there, but its not pretty.
Japanese Sports Cars, Part 4: The Mazda MX-5 Miata (May 16, 2012) One of mine I did a body conversion that was used in moss motors catalog.
Japanese Sports Cars, Part 4: The Mazda MX-5 Miata (May 16, 2012) I had a 95 M Edition, 94 converted monster, and a 95 with a custom 2.2l v8 with 405 HP. MX-5s are wonderful.
Lamborghini Expect Urus to be Brand’s Top Selling Model (May 15, 2012) I would expect pricing to start around $160k. Any higher and its too much, lower and it's cheapened.
Lamborghini Expect Urus to be Brand’s Top Selling Model (May 15, 2012) LM002. They are fantastic. I almost got one at an auction, but it went about 5 grand more than I was willing to spend without records.
Pagani Zonda F Blows Around the Magny-Cours Race Track (May 15, 2012) At no point in that video was the Zonda driver going 10/10ths. More like 6 or 7/10ths. The GTR looked like it was only going about 8 or 9 tenths.
Lamborghini Expect Urus to be Brand’s Top Selling Model (May 15, 2012) I like it. Its very forward looking and will be fresh for several years. I don't think it's going to make production.
Lamborghini Expect Urus to be Brand’s Top Selling Model (May 15, 2012) This isn't Lamborghini's first shot at an off road vehicle. This one is better looking, but I can't see it being as capable.
2014 Porsche 918 Spyder Enters the Next Phase of Development (May 15, 2012) The exhaust fires away from anything that would aerodynamically suck the exhaust back into the cabin, not sure I understand the concern.
2014 Porsche 918 Spyder Enters the Next Phase of Development (May 15, 2012) The front is too boring, rear is too busy. Everything between the wheelbase is perfect.
