Casu Marzu posted:Was at Road America on Saturday for the ALMS race. Owned so hard. Thanks for the photos. That was a great race with an exciting finish, but even though the corvettes are 1 and 2 in points, I never seem to catch the races they win. Also what is wrong with ESPN that they make us stream the races live on the website and not show them on tv until a day later? Also will anyone here be at the Baltimore race?

I like how the b-pillar is invisible in the first photo. That'd be pretty cool if you could just put all the windows down. This photo just reminded me about how uptight my state's laws about window tinting are though.

At first I thought it was cute, but then it got in my head that it's somehow the offspring of an H2 statutory raping a Power Wheels, and now I just feel terrible. I don't know why you didn't think details were worth mentioning but if anyone didn't see the article, this is by Hennessey, makes 1,226hp and has a top speed of 242mph. Edit: vv well that's certainly true. By shady though I assume you're referring to him being a dick, or do we have reason to think those numbers are inflated? davebo fucked around with this message at 17:18 on Sep 7, 2012 |

Just to clear this up for me, was that intended for the terrible car thread because of the way he parked, or is it in the awesome thread because that's some cool special edition Mustang I'm not familiar with yet? I've enjoyed Mustangs with rear window covers in the past (decades in the past) so I'm open to current ones, but that particular one isn't doing much for me, but I have no idea if that's some factory option on one of those crazy 800hp mustangs or something.

Seat Safety Switch posted:The louvers are one of many customization options on the Mustang; you can change the grill, etc as well. You mean from the factory I assume? So as far as anyone can tell from that photo it's a 2013 V6 Mustang? They're fine cars don't get me wrong, I just wasn't sure if there was something awesome I wasn't picking up on.

Well, this may not be as awesome as that Camaro but since we don't have the cell phone pics thread anymore I thought this was pretty cool to see driving around Northern Virginia, where I can't imagine you'd have a terribly interesting safari. Those tires are closer in width to my bicycle's than my car's.

PreacherNutshot posted:You'd be surprised what you can fit in the back of a sports car. Gifts for 7 and clothes for 2 weeks. Wait are these both your Corvettes? Did you plasti-dip the base stock wheels? It looks like you and someone else had to take a road trip to visit family for the holidays and instead of going together I'm picturing you each racing Corvettes across the country and I have to know more. If you just googled "corvette full of stuff" I'll be sad so make something up.

What site did you pull all those from? They're all the same size with some terrible artifacting in some, but I'll bet some of those source images are pretty nice. Edit: went looking for the original that Aventador thumbnail came from, found this:

I don't want this to sound snarky or anything but I noticed that it's fallen back to page 3 so I thought I'd mention that we actually have a thread just for cars like some of the ones you've been posting, so you may want to consider posting some things there in the future. http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3509860

Was browsing photos of the 2013 Amelia Island Concourse d'elegance and they had a bunch of gt40's. http://www.supercars.net/gallery/119513/2952/1.html Lots of racing Porsches in there on the second page. And the third has this 1985 prototype which looks fun:  But apparently that site thinks it's too good for the Corvettes that appeared so find them here: http://www.autoblog.com/photos/chevrolet-corvette-amelia-island-2013/#photo-5700925/

Paul Boz_ posted:Those names read like a Grand Theft Auto designer created them. This strikes me at the most GTA car I've seen in real life. It looks like a bunch of different cars melded together, has this completely amorphous name, and the interior isn't very detailed. I want to just open the door, toss out whoever was inside, and drive away until I got where I was going then just abandon it.

That parking lot in the background used to just be a pay to park membership deal, until one day I noticed there were an awful lot of Mercedes and thought it might be coincidence, but it's pretty clear some dealership must now use it for overflow inventory.

One thing that really ruined the look is it had a large QR code on the back of it. Nothing screams "1952" like a digital sticker you scan with a cell phone.

A cell phone photo Corvette dump you say? Don't mind if I do! Outside Tony's Corvette Shop, the color on that stripe is actually a dark green which I really liked.  Just today, in awful traffic with a cop right behind him. 638hp going to waste.  And this was at the Rockville metro stop a few weeks ago.

 I saw this recently around Ballston, VA and I swear I've seen variations of that license plate on two different colored SS Camaro's in the past 6 months. I don't know if it's a family name and a bunch of brothers all have muscle cars or what. Maybe it's one guy who keeps totaling them and getting new ones? In case it's unclear, this is the 6.4L V8 392 edition.

I know there's a little bit of history to the car but with such a boring naming scheme I'm surprised anyone even cares. Actually what surprises me most is that they made the coupe the 4 and kept the 4-door as the 3, since most BMW buyers just want a bigger number and the4-door sells more units I assume. Also this was all explained like 2 or 3 years ago right?
