Lets make this a 37 page long thread.

Didn't realize how serious this one was till I did a double take. No glass, no interior only guages and a manual automatic shifter, full cage, and oh yeah, freaking wheelie bars. Driving around on the street.

At my work, where everyone gets paid, except me.

Saw this on the way to school today, nothing special, but still a favorite.

One, there's no need for wheelie bar with those rear tires. Two, they are mounted so far forward and up that the bumper would hit anyways. Three, he can't drag race without windows.

As Carlos would say, all GTR owners should park in handicap zones.

I would love to have one of these with the V8. It is such a beautiful car.

"The" V8? AFAIK, Lotus hasn't had a V8 since the Esprit.

This just in! Lotus to off 611HP V8 Hybrid.

[94cobra69ss396]

That's the car I'm talking about. "The Esprit V8 used Lotus' self developed all-aluminum, twin-turbocharged (Garrett T3/60 turbos) 90-degree V-8, Code-named Type 918, in front of the same Renault transmission as before with no Chargecooler."

He probably has slicks for the track, and the bumper looks like it's been dragged, don't you think? Windows... I don't know, maybe he has nets. You really think he's just a poser?

Respond to my welding thread!

[enkeivette]

My thread wants to live! C'mon Sean, I know you've got some pics of Ferrari's on your cell phone that you jerk off to.

[kdracer73]

I posted a pic of this chopped van a as he exited the fwy a few weeks ago. It was at Cruisin for a Cure last weekend and Fuddrucker's tonight, and I got a few of the motor.

[enkeivette]

Sweet. That thing has a V8! I'll bet it can do a wheelie with that weight distribution.

[Vettezuki]

Here's some from cell from long ago. They're cute.

You don't see quite as many as these on the roads anymore . . .

Red CTS-V coupe on Lambert just past Brea Blvd. Out on the road, it really is a hot car, ( of course, i did see it from a front 3/4 view, which hides the rear end )

Wow a 2008 STS-V. I saw a black 2006/7 on the 405 on my way back with the kids from Whimsic Alley (Harry Potter store in LA) last week. The guy didn't seem to notice me.

Not even a chuckle? I thought I was pretty clever.

Gawd those focus drivers are giving Ford owners a bad name, i saw one on the freeway today littered witha Saleen stickers and a body kit that resembled Apollo 8

[94cobra69ss396]

Not even a chuckle? I thought I was pretty clever.

Get ready because that's the future of gasoline engines. They will only be used to charge batteries.

What, no pictures?

[Shaolin Crane]

I wanted to but traffic was heavy on his side and we were in the diamond lane so it was only a glimpse through vehicles

[94cobra69ss396]

I had that happen today too. I saw a prerunner Ranger with 6in. flared front and rear glass that was painted to match the truck and front and rear tube bumpers running stock suspension and stock 27in. tires.

Wait, so that's NOT cool?

[enkeivette]

He was prob in an accident, had dreams of a lift and decided to upgrade the fenders at that time.

I knew a guy who had a Focus with a Saleen body kit. He had the non-SVT 2L motor and got a Vortech blower for it. Made like 187whp? Cool for what it was I guess, but for that sort of money, not even to break 200whp... why not settle on an older Mustang for the same price. He could prob have bought a GT only a few years older than the cost of that car new. To each his own I guess.

[enkeivette]

Then again, GTs suck gas. I don't know what I'd do on a student budget if I wanted a fun new DD that sipped gas, before the SRT4 came out.

06 Mustang GT....Saleen Supercharged !
A wholesale guy bought it at auction , then found out no Cat Converters !

Saleen superchargers are the real deal. The same guy designed the Saleen superchargers as the new Edelbrock superchargers.

Not yet ! how much do you want ?

He is selling it , and can't get out the driveway at the lot , without dragging it . It had just 3inch clearance at the frame rails. Buyers frown on that.
I Think somebody buying that car though, would like the low look ! I think it looks better lower.

[mustangray]

Not yet ! how much do you want ?

I couldn't find the pipe I've asked around to see if I could find another but with Calif. laws everyone is looking too .
I gave Mike my apologies that I didn't find one for him.(I bought the Eibach springs from him)
All I came across was a new one for $1300. and a take off from out of state for $700. plus shipping so either way not good .

[Shaolin Crane]

damn id love the lowering springs for my 07 if you still have them

[mustangray]

Be how much?

hows about $100

[mustangray]

I know, I saw Mikes ad for the springs and as is my habit I looked up the phone/email ect. and saw the ad for his shop thus the car and recognized it from your post

[Shaolin Crane]

Hmmm, what brand, spring rate, etc?

[jedhead]

When I dropped off my car over at Spectre Performance they had a new toy they bought. 2007 Black on Black GT500 with 7K miles. The dual-dually push truck was there along with the El Camino. I will see if they will let me take some pics.

How do you even do that?

[enkeivette]

Oversteer, and get the front end caught on the bank while the car is still moving sideways?

[Vettezuki]

So I was at my friend's house today to retune my computer for new larger injectors and sort out a problem, when he offers to show me a new addition to his stable. As we stand before the garage door, about to open, I'm thinking Harley, maybe a new Camaro next to the Vette project car, then he's "man, it's really a buyer's market out there."

http://motorgen.com/pic/data/500/Chad_sFerrari.jpg

Yeah, guess so. Not exactly what you expect to see in a middle class Torrance neighborhood. These (355 F1 Spyder) aren't super expensive as Ferraris go, but they ain't exactly chump change either. I *think* he said he spent about $62k for it. The most recent service from the previous owner, was like a $10k "refresh".

It's pretty awesome, next time he's going to take me out in it.

And the Vette ain't exactly stock, it's a 402 Twin Turbo with turbo headers that alone are works of art, fabbed up by a guy who does exhaust fab for Indy cars.

I think he said if you want to take a ride on a rocket ship, you take the Vette, if you want to go out with a princess, you take the Ferrari. I look forward to having these choices. :smack:

Well the first one looked like the upper BJ which would have been aftermarket on a lifted truck. But that looks like the steering tie rod... can't make an excuse for that. Eek. He's lucky he didn't roll.

[Shaolin Crane]

Thats was from a trip in 07 with the powerstroke forums, most of the links from the other trucks has died, 1 had the same issue as the one i posted, the other one broke the lower control arm.

I had a guy come in and drop off his 64 Impala lowrider for some work a few months ago.
http://i925.photobucket.com/albums/ad94/kdracer73/BattleoftheWinterformal003-1.jpg




I saw him in dreadlocks and tattoos, and thought he looked rockstar. I Googled the name on the RO and it was Reggie , the bass player for Korn. :lhdevil:

http://i925.photobucket.com/albums/ad94/kdracer73/BattleoftheWinterformal005-1.jpg

He called last week and wanted to come by and see what was wrong with his gas pedal. I was surprised when he pulled in with a piece if string tied to the carb, through the vent window as his throttle. Impressive !

[10yearrx7]

^No Way!! That car is beautiful! I am not normally a fan of Mercedes but I love that car.

[Sonic03SVT]

Gads. Thing is hideous. Why couldnt they actually design some sort of back end for it instead of it looking like a clay model on which the rear end has begun to just melt off. Seriously, thing is gross :barf:

just my opinion, of course.

[Shaolin Crane]

I agree, maybe its just the fox and c5 lovers :huh:

[Vettezuki]

I wouldn't say that I love it, but by no means do I hate it. I'm a little mystified as to why people have such strong feelings against it.

As for clumsy rear ends, GM has got that covered. The C5 isn't the most subtle ass end on a car (thought the form follows function) and the current CTS-V Coupe is a cluster IMO.

[Shaolin Crane]

I agree about the new cts-v but not the c5 that car is perfect for all but the head lights

Good lawd. Id love to have that car. I wonder if he would trade me a testical?

[silverscmustang]

So I was at my friend's house today to retune my computer for new larger injectors and sort out a problem, when he offers to show me a new addition to his stable. As we stand before the garage door, about to open, I'm thinking Harley, maybe a new Camaro next to the Vette project car, then he's "man, it's really a buyer's market out there."

http://motorgen.com/pic/data/500/Chad_sFerrari.jpg

Yeah, guess so. Not exactly what you expect to see in a middle class Torrance neighborhood. These (355 F1 Spyder) aren't super expensive as Ferraris go, but they ain't exactly chump change either. I *think* he said he spent about $62k for it. The most recent service from the previous owner, was like a $10k "refresh".

It's pretty awesome, next time he's going to take me out in it.

And the Vette ain't exactly stock, it's a 402 Twin Turbo with turbo headers that alone are works of art, fabbed up by a guy who does exhaust fab for Indy cars.

I have seen that guys garage before. Cant remember where he lives, but I know I have seen his cars in the garage together before.

Had a Smart car come in the shop. The vinyl wrap company wanted us to swap all the panels out for fresh skins. They are gonna have sets of panels to swap and strip to save time. It was a 3 1/2 hour process.

Surprised those are just fastened on. I would have expected them to be bonded to the unibody how some modern cars are now.

[Shaolin Crane]

Those things are death traps, one rear ended me at a stop sign in my dually, dually was untouched (mostly) but the smart car was totalled

It's ok if the vehicle is totaled. The idea is the person needs to be able to walk away.

I honestly dont know how he got out at all, much less demanding my insurance information

I'm pretty open minded about people's different opinions, and if he digs it, that's cool . . . but it's kind of an abortion of any design I can understand.


I love the Ferrari pic! He's at a regular car wash behind a Civic.

Yea, but this car wash does a really good hand wash and wax. I've been there when other exotics have come in for a wash.

Frankie's Birthday was this past weekend. As is our tradition, we took out my friend's 64 Vette. Our Camaro club just happened to have a Palos Verdes Peninsula cruise on her birthday. It was a great day, but that car is a beast. 4 wheel drum manual brakes, 4 speed and manual steering. After the event , we drove PCH all the way to San Clemente. I was pooped when done.

[kdracer73]

what day were you guys up there? I was driving the same spot around 2 PM yesterday.

We got to the Angels Gate park near The Friendship bell at 10:00, cruised up to the nature center for a tour and watched some whales. Cruised back to the park and had a catered lunch. Drove South about 1:30-2:00.

[silverscmustang]

Palm trees must be incredibly conductive, in a sea of steel poles the tree takes the hit.


Fuckin' lightning, how does that work?


(ugh, I'm so sorry for the ICP reference.)

[jedhead]

Maybe the palm trees were a better conductor to ground.

That's the car I'm talking about. "The Esprit V8 used Lotus' self developed all-aluminum, twin-turbocharged (Garrett T3/60 turbos) 90-degree V-8, Code-named Type 918, in front of the same Renault transmission as before with no Chargecooler."

[94cobra69ss396]

I love those cars.

[Vettezuki]

Terrible pic. I post it because I didn't actually recognize the car. It was Vette-like, but not a vette.

A Mach1 often parked out front a place I visit for a side job. It must be a daily driver, because it's always in a different place.

http://motorgen.com/pic/data/1107/2011-04-14_12-32-54_697.jpg

Saw this on the 91E a while back. The pic doesn't do it justice. This Jeep looked huge.

http://motorgen.com/pic/data/1107/2011-04-14_19-14-09_353.jpg

Tried to get a closer pic while driving, but didn't come out. He had the German helmet, dangling cigarette, the whole 9. It was an actual mo-ped. So awesome.

Believe it or not, but this wonderfully brand new 5.0 Mustang was spotted in Utah a few minutes earlier with someone pulled over!!
http://i53.photobucket.com/albums/g45/meclipsegt/e487e580.jpg

We passed him, then pulled over at a rest stop then caught up to him hiding behind a semi.

I wish I had said F-it and moved the cones and pulled up to the building a little closer. We had stopped here to check into the volunteer booth at 3:30am. As I walked back to the car, the hanger doors opened up and it was quite the cool visual !

A Fridolin! That's like catching a glimpse of a 17 year old virgin in South Los Angeles, I mean they do exist but the chances of ever actually seeing one in person are quite small...
