Re: Cars

And lastly the biggest reason not to have a mini, it's a fucking BMW and not a REAL mini, I've had loads of real mini's and they are great.

This is exactly why I don't like them, the classic Mini is so much better and is actually a mini

[RelentlessOblivion]

that's actually the one I mean hence why I said Mini not BMW, the new ones are awful

[RelentlessOblivion]

of course Satan if you wanted a top-down cruiser you could have picked a TVR, you'd just need to make sure the upholstery was brown

give me a Chevy Impala in black circa 1967 thanks

I'm American and even by my standards that is a big, heavy car. The Chevelle SS396 is better in every conceivable way, including handling. Get the Yenko version and it'll be more comfortable and faster too. 'Course if you want the fastest and craziest Chevy muscle car what you want is a '70 Yenko Nova. That was their frighteningly quick answer to the Dodge Max Wedge Dart. A Camaro ZL1 is probably the best pony in Chevy's muscle car stable though.

better then the Corvette Stingray 427? I like the Impala because it looks cool I'll never be able to drive but I hope one day to have a collection of cars I consider to be works of art and since my younger brother CAN drive I'll get him to take me for cruises in them every now and then

that's actually the one I mean hence why I said Mini not BMW' date=' the new ones are awful[/quote'] Sorry never crossed my mind you know about the old mini's being a young bloke. Real Mini Coopers are very expensive, if you can find one. If I could afford it I'd have a Shelby Mustang GT500 as my American muscle car.

After 1966, yes. Chances are the ZL1 handles better because of its aluminum-block engine.

If I could afford it I'd have a Shelby Mustang GT500 as my American muscle car.

The one from the 60's or the Shelby Super Snake? The latter is pretty skittish and heavy, and if Top Gear is any indication of English driving preferences you want something that handles well. If that's the case I'd recommend a Shelby GT350, Firebird, AMX, or Cougar Eliminator. Maybe a Duster. If you were aiming for something more modern you might prefer a Roush Mustang, they've got stiffened suspension.

could always go for something British like a Lotus but if you want a real modern muscle car mate it has to be that Vauxhall you took from us and rebadged

mmm Lotus Esprit Turbo :3 also I LOOOVE TVR's

[Iceni]

Oh, and we also put the Corvette LS2 in it. You have a point...but you rebadged the Vauxhall first as an HSV GTS. One of my favorite cars in Need for Speed Hot Pursuit 2, to be sure. For that matter, why does HSV not make the two-door GTS anymore? The only 2-door they make now, according to the company website, is the Maloo. Now I love the idea of a rocket-fast bakkie, it's like the apotheosis of my American and South African heritage, but it's a pity that HSV doesn't make coupes anymore.

Had a Lotus Elsie S2 but not good as an everyday drive, not with our shite weather anyway. This was mine, it's not me in it, not the best picture but it's all I could find at work. [ATTACH=CONFIG]483[/ATTACH]

[RelentlessOblivion]

see if I ever do buy a car I won't have to worry about practicality it will be there for the odd cruise when I can talk my brother into it so who knows I could even go after a classic Lambo or Ferrari

Those are some cool wheels. Are those aftermarket or did they come with the car?

If you're not driving maybe you'd want a Bentley Arnage. That way you'll still be pretty comfortable while you rocket around.

[satan 59]

They came with that model, Elise S2 Racetech I think it was. Loved driving it in the dry but as soon as it got damp you have to give it all your attention. http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc98/SATAN_59/299010_10150459768583849_794783848_11164288_742287839_n.jpg

Best car ever (IMHO): 1952 Alfa Romeo Disco Volante. Estimated cost of each is between 1 and 2 million Euro. They're mostly in museums.

[H34VYM3T4LD4V3]

Re: Cars Here's some of my favourites: First the gorgeous Aston Martin One 77

[RelentlessOblivion]

And just like that this thread becomes X rated. Gawd the One-77 is a gorgeous car.

[H34VYM3T4LD4V3]

Re: Cars It is an amazing car, I love it :3 Here's some more: Lamborghini Reventon: Koenigsegg Agera R Jaguar XKRS

[RelentlessOblivion]

I don't like the look of the Swedish car. The Reventon is another stunning car I really love the look of the Ferrari 458 Italia

[Iceni]

Jaguar F-type is lovely, and I like the Agera. Jaguar's C-X75 is a nice concept as well:

[Sardonic]

Cars are cool, but I personally enjoy motorcycles much more. Not so much the crotch rockets, but Harleys and such. I live in the desert, so it's usually riding weather year round.

[Iceni]

I live out in the desert too, lots of Fat Boys and Electra Glides hereabouts. Motorbikes are cool, but I confess I greatly prefer the superbikes and sportbikes. Not that I've ridden either.

[Sardonic]

Whaaat? You're missing out, man! But it isn't for everybody I suppose. Over here, you have a lot of hoopties that blare their rap music. I enjoy revving my bike and drowning out the music. The annoyed looks I get from the drivers as they roll their windows up is priceless. One of the reasons I prefer my Harley over different types of bikes.

[Iceni]

Whaaat? You're missing out' date=' man! But it isn't for everybody I suppose.[/quote'] I don't have my own vehicle. If I did I'd probably go for a car. That said, I could certainly see myself riding a Triumph or an Aprila.
