  1. I wonder if that kühlergrill with vertical slats will make it into production. The Ocean Drive concept car looked so production-ready, goddamnit, Benz. :fuming:
  2. Umm, yeah. Looks cool, but unless they start producing a more or less same thing I don't care. :dontcare:
  3. Worth the read even though it is a sad story. It's about a guy who died on the way to a cars & coffee event in his S2000. He also owned a mint 560SEC AMG. My roommate and fellow gearhead passed away on Saturday. This is his pride and joy. : cars
  4. The spotters kinda ruined the experience for me in Monaco. Casino Square was crazy, yeah, but that was 4 years ago, so I guess it wasn't as bad as today. Take the cameras and phones off their hands. but daaaaad muh followers :cry:
  5. Meanwhile in London... Instagram How stupid does one have to be to act like this? My God! :fp2: 1. It's just an Aventador. A car. 2. There are millions of photos on the Internet. Most of them better than yours. 3. There are nicer things in the city than a yellow car. 4. Don't walk on the road. 5. If you've never seen one in flesh, take the precious chance to look at it thru your own eyeballs.
  6. LOL this reads like we're some kinda important organization or something
  7. BMW 1 Series M Coupe ✓ Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG ✗ Porsche ✗ 4/10
  8. Vintage pap worth breaking the one-pic-per-post rule. Oh, wait, there's more! :eek: Ferrari 328 GTS - 10 August 2016 - Autogespot Ferrari Testarossa - 10 August 2016 - Autogespot Ferrari 275 GTB/4 - 9 August 2016 - Autogespot Ferrari 512 BB Spider - 9 August 2016 - Autogespot Ferrari F40 - 9 August 2016 - Autogespot So cool.
  9. Here's a better view at the BMW G20 3 Series interior. Mind you, it's an early test mule. Not too far away from the release of the new G30 5 Series. Start of production in November. Pictured is an Alpina Touring. First pics of the Škoda Kodiaq SUV. JLR updated their big Range for 2017. New 10-inch InControl infotainment system taken out from the new Jags, all the 2016 driver assistants everyone else has, new colors and interior options, new base engine (340PS S/C V6) and a new version called the SVAutobiography Dynamic. It's the most powerful one (yet) with a 550PS/680Nm S/C V8 (40 PS, 70 Nm more than the standard V8), 8mm lower suspension and some tweaked dampers. More here. Last but not least, the RRRRAAAPTOOORRRR. :evil:
  10. Aren't dealer mark-ups just an American thing? When I was driving the BMW M2 I was told that I would not be offered any discount on the M2 due to the high demand and low production, but he could make me a good price on an M240i. And in the US they instead slap 5k on top of MSRP. Discounts on brand new cars are normal here. Guess it's a cultural difference, heh. I don't really get why people won't just wait a year or so until the dust settles. Actually, I don't really know why people allow this dealer BS. It's just a Mustang. Not a LaF spyder.
  11. There's one local guy who owns or recently owned one, and I've seen a race-prepped 3.8 not too long ago.
  12. Amazon.com: Audio-Technica ATR3350iS Microphone for Smartphones - 19.69-Feet: Musical Instruments There are better mics for a better price, but this one is the only mic with a long cable I could find here. Also got an exhaust vid which I'll upload later. Clipped & taped it to the red battery plug. Basically the hottest place as I learnt afterwards, but it was fine. The battery was placed right behind the seal near the left hood strut to keep it away from heat.
  13. That's why I mentioned it. Maybe tell him that I am not that far away from him in case he ain't interested... :whistle:
  14. Hey, Mike, look at this. :drool: Never seen these wheels in this color.
