nothing special or new...just wanted to share. drove out to Yonkers today to pick up a purchase from another member.

E63 AMG - i tail gated him for a little bit and then he floored it haha. the exhaust sound was



911 Carerra S - some old guy with a young blonde bombshell in the passenger seat (sorry couldnt get pics of her )




what speed does the spoiler come up on that car? i just noticed that in one pic, its up, and the other, its down. both pictures were taken at around 75-80 mph.

It's a lot bigger of a car than it looks in the photo. I am always amazed at how large they look up close. No homo.

I've seen a few in person and you're right, they are huge. Especially the black ones, no homo

You guys are terrible.
IMO the Phantom is great but it's getting a bit long in the tooth, and I'd feel kinda weird driving one.

Now riding in one, entirely different story.

There are a ton of those RR's around Palm Beach and every time I walk by one, I am amazed at how big the car is. It is obviously long but so damn tall. There was a drophead the other day in the garage by me, so freakin tall

The R8 looks awesome in white.

Don't tell me that's a dealership sticker to the right of the emblem

My boy has a deposit on the Italia Spyder, I think 2012 estimated delivery. He's thinking about white, he has a black California now. I know you're not a huge fan of white but what do you think about the 458 in white? IMO an F-car has to be red or black.

Would I order a white Ferrari? No, but I love white cars so I think it would look fine. It would look even better if he got the red interior like this white coupe:

That's exactly how I want to order my next Porsche. Carrara white exterior and red possibly even terracotta interior with maybe black floor mats, seat belts and dashboard for contrast.

Yeah that's the color. I think a white Italia with the top down cruising down Diamond Head Road would look sick.

Very clever.

<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/alex_weber/4216844847/" title="NO MURCI by Alex Weber, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4003/4216844847_9185fd33fe.jpg" width="500" height="333" alt="NO MURCI" /></a>

I got a good laugh out of this one too:
