The Jag V12s are pretty cheap options to put into kit cars like the old Daytona Spyder clones on Miami Vice. You're right though, I rarely see them anymore.

Probably too expensive to keep going

Those V12's would basically cook all your hoses and belts ander the hood. You were constantly replacing rubber parts on those.

Lol no, my mom's car is white. Here's an explanation of all the pics:

1-Some DeLorean I saw in front of me.

2- An Enzo pulling out of a gas station. Notice how the dumbass forgets to close the gas cap...

3-Bugatti parked on the street in beverly hills. Guy in the tie was the driver. I asked him to let me drive it and he said no.

4- Ventura Blvd in Encino....pickup hits bus, Lexus hits pickup.

5- Also in Beverly Hills...I don't really remember how this one happened. But the hydrant was going for a good half-hour.

6 and 7- Belonged to some guy I know at school. You guys are gonna love this one: He was 16 and his parents got it for him as a first car. AFTER 3 WEEKS OF HAVING THE CAR, he was going something like 80 on Melrose when a taxi made a left in front of him. He swerved to the right to miss the taxi and the pics explain the rest. The airbags didn't even go off, which they should've. But here's the best part: HIS PARENTS GOT HIM AN M5 three months later.

^His parents are stupid as fuck. How the fuck can someone that ridiculously stupid make so much money, let alone two people, LET ALONE them marry each other and give birth to an even stupider kid?

Never mind the silver spoon kid... if I were one of the parents' parents, I would bash my kid's head in.

I swear I've never smiled so much on my drive to work as I did this morning driving behind this truck. This dog was resting it's head on the back window the whole time I was behind them and it just kept staring at me giving me the sad eyes. I just kept smiling and giggling like a little school girl. It just looked like one of those super loyal best friend kind of dogs. Sigh.

I saw this same 911 a few weeks ago and was pissed I didn't have my camera with me at the time. On my way home yesterday I spotted it again but this time I was armed with my camera. Absolutely stunning color combination.

That reminds me of the picture I took two weeks ago. I felt so bad for the person who parked their van next to this car.

I live right on teh border of Westchester and The Bronx. And Work in Larchmont. I see them occasionally but never spot them like you. I also used to go to school at ASU and lived in Scottsdale. Scottsdale Fashion Square Valet right off of Scottsdale Drive by the resturant has some of the nicest cars. The many times ive been there I've seen All the cars mentioned lined up.

I doubt so. The 599GTB has a reputation of catching engine fires...

LMFAO. Well, after what you did to your mom's car, do you really think he'd let you drive a 1.6 million dollar car?

My grandma had an XJS just like this one. Same wheels, but black. She told me people would get to her at a light and want to race, and she actually did it a couple times. She won, too

Damn it. I ALMOST caught a super clean 997 Carrera S on the way to work today, lowered (virgin wheel gap) with what looked like some expensive, nice looking 19s. Once I was close enough to get a side shot, I had to take my exit.
