The color/wheel combo is perfect... Do you know what interior color it had?

Like the understatement "I'm-only-a-big-Passat" -look of these cars.

Greetings, lip

no idea, the lights were going green and i was already holding up traffic. it was a shoot-n-run drive by. Looked so amazing, especially seeing one with the extra intake flaps up

Inspector Morse is back!!

Damn that Jag is sexy. I was watching Oz and James and they showed an XK120 so now I'm very excited by old Jags.

A.Fonz · January 4th, 2008, 10:54 PM

Ooo, I love the MK II, shame it's only a 2.4 tho, I'm gonna get a 3.8 one day.

Austere · January 4th, 2008, 11:16 PM

I'm probably the only person here that would take the SAAB over the Jag. images/smilies/lol.gif

With the possible exception of some the Scandinavian members. images/smilies/think.gif

Shawn · January 4th, 2008, 11:18 PM

I won't, because if you look carefully, their other car, the Lancer in the right, has a sign in the back window. It says "New Driver (Female)" images/smilies/lol.gif

Banii · January 5th, 2008, 06:43 PM

On the freeway to go see Jay Leno last night, i spotted around 5 lambos, a few ferraris, one lotus exige, 39 corvettes - one of them the z06, and a porsche 997 turbo.

Jay says Hi by the way.

Shawn · January 5th, 2008, 08:53 PM

^ How did you get to Burbank? Do you guys have a rental car? Because a personal auto seems the only way anyone travels in LA.

Pr0_E · January 6th, 2008, 01:20 PM

Speaking of dirty but fast saloons, my cousins new car at christmas images/smilies/smile.gif

(he is a lot older than me and has a nice job). He drove like 400kms on bad weather and the result was lots of dirt on a nice car. I didn't had time to photograph it properly so I just took a little "proof" with a phone cam.

Blayde · January 6th, 2008, 04:46 PM

wow

dirrty

The old and the new, in one day images/smilies/biggrin.gif

I love the way the old one sounds, but he had some horrible rims on it.

Didn't hear this one start up, was at the uni parking lot

rental

LA traffic sux btw, used 40 minutes from OC (where I live) to Burbank, but after the taping, we hit traffic, and we used over 5 hours.

Shawn · January 7th, 2008, 12:20 AM

^ Have you actually moved from Norway to the OC? I thought you were just on vacation.

Traffic in LA is truly the worst I have ever seen... I've been down there over 25 times and freeway traffic is my only lasting memory. images/smilies/tongue.gif

tedb43o2o3 · January 7th, 2008, 06:25 PM

Just dont go on fwy at the wrong time.

Banii · January 7th, 2008, 07:17 PM

Went to Lamborghini of Orange County yesterday! Awesome!

Shawn: No, I prolly should have said "in the OC, where I live with some relatives for a few weeks".

Im just fooling around the world... Going to the Fiji Islands tonight.

Shawn · January 7th, 2008, 09:38 PM

^ Fiji? You lucky so and so, I wish I was going there. Oh well, have a good time.
