Toyota 2000GT. Didn't the number plate give it away?

[NecroJoe]

For real? It's Toyota 2000GT, dude...turn in your man card.

[bone]

ah shit

i would've recognised the front! really!

[ScarFace88]

it does look rather strange, but in a good way, i have to agree.
look at those wheels though and how low it sits, you just know the ride's going to be appalling

Something tells me the owner doesn't care about the ride...

That looks like a model...

And apparently it is. An Autoart 1:18 scale model. But unfortunately I can't find much info about it other than these images.





It you look at the license plates of that with this, it matches. But I got to ask, how on earth did you call that?

My first thought was that it was a model, only because I've seen a couple up-close and the edges of the panels have much sharper bends in the metal. Tighter radius edges, and tighter panel gaps.

This should be in the idiots and cars thread, but the motherfucker walked away from this.

The Volvo V60 Racing was unveiled last week at Brazil's São Paulo Auto Show. A motorsports-tuned version of the V60 wagon, it wears a throwback paint scheme that celebrates the Volvo 850 station wagon that competed in the British Touring Car Championship in 1994.

More than 250 horsepower goes from the 2.0-liter, four-cylinder T5 through a six-speed dual-clutch transmission, on to 18-inch wheels wearing Michelin Pilot Sport 2 tires. Volvo says the wagon is indeed track-ready, and we hope to get some video proof of that in short order.
