The Corvette looks very nice in individual photos showing details, but FFS look at it overall! It has the worst stance ever..

^Dacia Sport Coupe

This makes me like Dacia and wanting to get a Rally license

The Gordini is a wonderful car. Last winter there was an ice-racing track on a lake near here, and I saw 2 racing Gordinis there. Both of them were blue with white stripes

I also saw some other classic cars, but unfortunately they mostly hosted motorcycle races on the ice track

I have to disagree. I just saw the car in person and have to say it looks amazing. It's not really my style of car, but the detail work is incredible, and the overall effect is simply stunning.

And now for something completely different... (I really don't mean to double post. This just really has nothing to do with the last one.)

I wasn't sure whether this belonged here or in the funny pics thread but I think the Awesome won. Blind will like this since he'll know where it came from.

I just stumbled across this:

It has this under the hood:

And two turbos.

Needless to say.....

^ Awesome yes, but for me a Cobra (or replica) is V8-only territory, the V8 sound and that car's looks just go hand in hand.

Nabster · November 8th, 2009, 5:57 AM

I certainly agree. I wouldn't have that, but I'd take it for a drive. I do admire the work, however. Fitting that engine in that engine bay wasn't easy or cheap.

Some are calling the Mavizen TTX02 a “laptop on wheels” — a really, really fast laptop on wheels. Not only can the bike reach speeds of up 130 miles an hour, it also has an onboard computer system.

Each TTX02 comes with a dash-mounted computer complete with Linux, on board server, a dedicated IP address, USB and Wi-Fi connectivity.

Grönholm @ 1:55. Awesome

ALXBWSCREW · November 9th, 2009, 3:27 PM

That just too awesome. The music, the footage, everything sums up what's so brilliant about rallying.

Trollbooth · November 9th, 2009, 6:38 PM

Dodge M4S
Star of the 1986 movie The Wraith.

At its heart lies a Mopar 2.2 liter 4 cyl. with two turbos that produced over 400bhp.

A fan of the movie purchased one of the stunt cars and restored it. Although I'm not sure about the choice of color the new owner picked.

I remember watching the movie as a child and thinking that car was the most awesome car ever despite the Countach poster on my wall. What a shame to learn all those cool electricity effects aren't real.

More at IMCDB.

nsx_23 · November 9th, 2009, 8:15 PM

That dodge is sick. Why can't more 4-cylinder sports cars look like that.

Anyway:

Tony Fox LSR car + Truck
