I think it's CGI, that's what I mean I don't know if it's supposed to be a restored car, or a concept.

I think it must just be a concept model as I have never seen wheels like that on a car in that genre.

But, it would be a beautiful car if they made it.

I have TONS more.

there was 1 opened drum of the fuel, my buddies and I would mix 75/25 97/110 fuel in our bikes. it smelled so good, that was the only reason. even though it most likely hurt performance. lol

it took me 4 months to sell all the drums on craigslist. lol made some bank. id put 1 drum a day in my old elantra trunk and bring them home.

in the last pic, anyone recognize the salesman standing there? he was on a very recent episode (one of the last 4 iirc) of Shark Tank. his name is Tony Fayne. super nice guy. gave everyone a bottle of Grey Goose for Christmas....even tho he was only there for a week prior.

05 Porsche Carrera GT super car 480,000.00 price tag
one of the salesman during the 2008 woodward dream cruise (which is this weekend), backed the car into a curb and took out the carbon fiber splitters on the rear underpan. $5000.00 whoooops

I have a sound clip on the gnarly exhaust. just need to dig it out.

I just saw one of these in person last summer. The newest model, but same approximate car "level."

In person, it's stunning. Like, if you asked me if I would like to drive that car on a daily basis, I think I would pick a different car. But sitting in it, wow does it feel good. The guy was an absolute bonehead too, a car that nice shouldn't be driven by someone who doesn't appreciate it.

Money is wasted on the rich.

the rich have it MADE for sure. try a day in the avg joes shoes and im sure they would tap out in hours.

all the super cars ive posted do NOT drive very well in city traffic. stop and go on a clutchless (DSG) trans and its not gonna last too long. the smell of burnt clutch discs will let everyone know it might be a bad ass car...but cant drive in the city for shit. lol and the ride, well hope you like it stiff.

The military was probably connected with Camp Grayling, I would think.
The Mounds, out on Mt. Morris Road, if I remember right, been awhile.
Yeah, snow is definitely easier to clean up.

The guy who bought my STI paid $17,000 in cash, like it was nothing. He sold it the same week for $16,500 because he didn't like it (for reasons I'm about to mention) He went out & bought a 135 that same week.

Click to expand...

My STI had an Exedy stage 5 clutch in it. Not an easy clutch to drive. 3 plates so it grabs funny (no other way to describe it, the clutch just grabs "funny"). It's also noisy, that's just how a triple disc clutch is. The suspension is all adjustable, but it's racing caliber. There is only so soft you can make it. The blow off valve & wastegate were also extremely loud.

Most of that car was new. They bought it at 79K, tore it apart, & any parts that matter, they put in brand new. However, when you do that to a car, & add that stiff suspension, it makes for a noisy car. Especially one that makes that kind of power. Straight pipes, no cats, different gears. It was not a comfortable car to drive. It didn't even have A/C. I put the A/C system back in before I sold it.

It was not a car you would like to drive for hours on regular roads, or on a long trip. It was made to do one thing...hurl you down the pavement as fast as possible, & that it did. It wasn't a car so much...more like a fastball leaving the hands of a Major League Pitcher.

But for the average person, they would have hated that car. & unless you had a good clutch foot already, all you are gonna do is stall it in traffic & look like an idiot. Stall it over & over again. (I told you the clutch grabs funny)

There is a general rule, the faster the car, the less comfortable. That's the mountain these companies are trying to climb now. Make an extremely fast car that you wouldn't mind taking on a trip.

If I had to drive that STI for more than an hour on regular roads, it just became annoying. It wasn't meant to drive at low speeds. & this car in particular, at low rpm. In an automatic car, when you are cruising around town you are between 1k-2k. This car needed to be at 3k at almost all times or it would buck, & spit, & backfire. It's like putting a Stallion in a box...it doesn't want to be there.

Put it on the track however, & you could hardly imagine loving a car more. The only limitation in that car was your driving skill. & when you apex & squeeze the throttle & your sheer speed swings you into your line...oh so good. There are relatively few cars on the road that could catch that thing.

It's not hard to catch something that is 618 hp. But it's very hard to catch something that is doing 618 hp ALL THE TIME, with 5k of usable rpm of just flat power.
