As the flagship Ferrari, it can only be one color IMO...





Sure, I could live with a different colored F12berlinetta or even 458...but, the Poopdick McFartington MUST be red.

Enzo was done in these colors, from the factory:
NEXT!

Aman

So you were the one behind the that thread title change?

I could never own that car, but damn it's great to admire it.

Yumcha

Righto. But, only one color is worthy of the Enzo: Rosso Scuderia.

Costco

I didn't realize there was a rosso scuderia I always thought it was just rosso corsa.

Supposedly the difference is that RS has a bit of an orange hue to it, and they introduced it so it would make their race cars stand out just that much more on TV.

srika

which one would you take?

R35 for me

R34 > R32 > R33 > R35a

Aman

You really don't like the R35

R34 first for me.

speedemon90

R34 for me as well.

charliemike

I would rather have a R35. I have accepted the fact that I don't like "old" cars.

I saw a new 328i today and thought it was a 5-series from a distance. The 3-series has really gotten big.

Aman

Really? It doesn't look that much bigger than the E90 to me. But the styling is much too similar to the 5.

At least we still have small cars that are better than they were. Can't wait for the first 135/CLA/S3 comparison test.

Costco

That's because it's the only one out of the group that makes me involuntarily wince when I see it in person. The only really appealing thing to me is that powertrain. The rear looks decent too, I guess.

Aman

The rear looks the same as all the other Skylines!

Costco

Okay, it has the best looking rear end out of all the Skylines there, I said it. Quads + LEDs = I give.

But any of the other three poo all over the R35's front end with their aggressive front ends and dem fender flares. Overall proportions just look much neater and more cohesive. They're about as subtle as an Evo, but they just appeal much more to me.

Costco

and yes, I put way too much thought into these kinds of things.

The front end of the R35 reminds me of some sort of down syndrome-stricken lovechild of these two:

West6MT

R34 x 4

Aman

I can sort of see that. I forgive the R35's looks because of its performance.


PS: That Celica's exposed rear hatch is driving me nuts.

srika

damn, they even have the 911 Turbo up on there.

srika

I don't see what you're talking about..........

charliemike

There's no trim piece on the hatch interior (the red part) I'm guessing ...

Aman

Yup... Guess it's only me then.

charliemike

Turbo S starts at $182,000 ...

srika

oh, the red on the inside? guess that never got on my "annoyance" list.

I would love to see a Top Gear track match between a Poopdick McFartington and the 918 Spyder.

Yumcha

I suspect the Poopdick would win. Even though the 918's numbers are jaw-dropping, that weight has to be a factor in this case, right?

ttribe

Pulled up next to my old (actual) TL today at a light. I was pleased to see it was still in really good shape (at least on the outside).

srika

weird! that would kinda freak me out..

ttribe

Wasn't nearly as bad as when my M5 pulled up next to me...I wanted to throw myself in front of the car that day.

srika

oh geez.

yeah glad I sold my supra (far) out of state. if I ran into that again, I might have to uh, steal it.

Yumcha

Yeah, memories huh? I see my old CL-S still. But, the new owners have really mangled the Versus kit on it.

Aman

You guys still see your old cars around your city?

ttribe

Apparently.

Yumcha

Yeppers. Mine is quite easy to spot since it's the only Acura CL-S that has a bodykit in town.

Aman

^ Would love to see a pic of your CL one day.

I/my family haven't sold any cars since I've been around, but I've never even seen a friend's car that's been sold. Big city I guess.

Yumcha

Ah, nothing to brag about...but, it was my first car. Loved it until it was no longer practical.

Posted this pic before but, here you go! It looked even better when I had some other wheels on it. But, sorry...only got pics of stock rims.

ttribe

^^^ What?! No lambo doors?!

Yumcha

I'll have you know that I chopped out the Mugen and Spoon stickers.

ttribe

At least it was representin' IRL. YOLO!

Aman

So that's the original Snowplow, huh?

It looked good. Versus kit looks a little too aggressive for me, but I bet it popped with aftermarket wheels.
