I like the Countach, as well. It even has exhaust baffles for stealthy travel.

Camo does actually look nice on it, but I think its a kit car. The rear diffuser goes too low, the spoiler doesnt look right, and the third brake light appears to be in the wrong location; but its tough to say for sure from that angle.

The rear wing is adjustable on the Countach S and does not have a CHMSL.
The radiator vents above the quarters can't be covered on a real Countach, and the real ones have quad exhaust tips (OEM).

I agree. My good buddy has 2 r6's.. one that's strictly for the track and the other for the street. His track r6 is nuts.. he'll kneedrag every turn with precision. On the other hand I saw some douche almost eat it through a turn on his busa with an extended swingarm two months back. Luckily he didn't drop it.

now a busa / smart car aka. diablo is something else entirely.

It's not a WTF because it's odd, but more of a "no, really, WTF is that thing?"

Looks like it could be the new Dodge Charger. Any thoughts?

Spied at 4:25pm at Lamar and Shawnee Mission Parkway in KC.




Sorry for the quality (cell phone) and size, but figured it might help to see more detail...

Definately looks like a Charger.

If you had a front shot I can tell you for sure though.

I was turning left and they were turning right... I had to do about 60 down a 30mph road just to catch up to it so I could get the pics. I saw the covering and immediately knew it was a test car, but was surprised to see it here in the Midwest... our factories are chevy and ford and don't have any dodge factories around. The license plate under the white section was light blue and white... looked like Minnesota.

The covering looks like the C&D spy shot posted above, with the arched trunk cover. Although the right turn signal was making a backwards C shape when it was blinking, if that makes sense. Had a pulsating look like it was LED versus bulb.

and seems like an erratic sensor signal or something that would probably cause that (but it still should have doable or triple checks in place to prevent that though [like how airplanes have multiple backup systems])
