omg. i can't fucking believe you just said that.

i'm sorry but we're not e-friends any more (if we were at all). lol

Yeah, I'm not a fan of most Porsches either. I do like this one.

lol that's one of my least favorite models


*edit* although i must say im diggin those rims and the all black on that one. those are the stock rims for that?

They do come stock, but on the 997 turbo and not on that abomination called cayman s (though the one in the pic does look sick, though one of these isnt nowhere near as impressive in person).

Originally posted by Lilith There's a silver and black one running around my neighbourhood, they look much nicer in the metal than in pictures. Also sounds really good. Still in the event I lost a frontal lobe and spent 1/4 mil on a car, the R8 wouldn't be it. Think they are bringing out a V10 one, so that might actually go as fast as it looks

Isn't R8 more like 1/8 mil?

Prob been posted up before but eh - sitting in the middle to drive tickles my fancy with two feminina's on the other sides..

and of course

good taste! The RSR is all kinds of badass.

I do like the Cayman though, but I also liked the 914

lol LEN and I totally razzed you for liking the 914 too.

To be fair, I like the Cayman also. It is a worthy competitor in the market to similarly placed vehicles.

I guess the kindest thing to say about them is that they're simply a practical design with a low drag coefficient and the latter models aren't too ugly.

Originally posted by Moongoose Crashing at 200kmh into a lampost is more of a porsche thing than a lambo isnt it. Theres a reason why the (early) turbos were nicknamed the widowmaker :P 200kmh into a ligt or tree will do that for you ON the other hand lambos tend to be driven slowly, since the most important thing to do in a lambo is to look good (especially if youre italian), and nobody can see how good you look if youre doing 200kmh. Actually just now i have come up with a theory. Everybody speding in a lambo within city limits must be incredibly ugly, since clearly they dont want people to look at them. The problem with lambos though, is that you dont need to hit a lamppost for it to burst into flames...

hehe, yep the older Porches are real terrors. I baby-sat a friends old one from the 1980's for a few weeks that he'd strapped a whopping big turbo onto, so that when you got to about 4000rpm it was THE worst turbo lag ever!
Whole back of the car would tramp down on its suspension, barely any weight over the front wheels and that really wasn't much fun when it came to doing important stuff like... turning corners or stopping its arse overtaking its nose.
Noisy little bastard too, between the engine sounding like an angry VW bug off idle speeds and the getrag's transmission chatter it was distinctly unpleasant little beast.

A few blocks from where I live a Lambo owner didn't have to worry about his catching fire, few of his dodgy Lebanese friends shot him about 5 times while he was sitting in it. Think he lived.

Not here, cars are expensive and the government likes to make them even more expensive with additional tax, so an R8 with all the options will cost you about 280k

Yeah, nothing like careening off the side of the road while boosting out of a turn.

To be honest, I actually have something of a soft spot for that old-school narrow operating range turbo setup. My brother has a Mazdaspeed 3, and its powerband functions along those lines, though not nearly with the same level of ferocity as the older model Porches.

Originally posted by gehzumteufel Almost every one. 914 and Panamera are the worst looking Porsches.

I just never quite got the appeal in terms of looks. They drive great and are good cars but looks wise, I just don't find them sexy.
Lillith said it well:

Didn't know we were You seem to think I always attack you for some reason, like that time I apparently bagged out your bf when I hardly said anything

Yes, the fucking 6 series in an awesome car, that just cant be said enough.

& the 2 Million dollar car.

everytime i see one of these i am astonished volvo regrouped and released such a retro-beautiful car.





but GOD would it need some thick rims, and wishfully, AWD. the glass door is so awesome.

i still think its awesome, but the mazdaspeed3 is likely more fun|

Your wish may come true. They are seriously considering a C30R in the US.

The guy above you and myself are HUGE E30 M3 fans. As is LEN and a few others.

me and my friend are actually thinking of buying e30s, i really want one. they look like such fun cars and theres a lot of aftermarket parts available etc. which makes it a fun project car in my opinion.

ive been looking for this window molding for my e24 6 series for a few months now...
but im still addicted to that car

Yeah unfortunately, the E26 is really hard to find parts for. Especially in the US. And although I think it is a great car, I am not a fan of the styling. To each their own though.
