My wife and I stayed at the MGM Skylofts for our anniversary and we got to choose between this and the Rolls Ghost for transportation. The Ghost really is a tarted-up 7 series; the Maybach may be ugly and depreciate like a rock, but I'll take those seats next time.
Goddamit I did the same and was all excited for a maybach but got a 20 year old cadillac instead.

A guy in town built one of these, same model/colors too. His camper was perfect condition though, and didn't move until it was done. Where is this at?
San Francisco.

A high school buddy of mine's dad had a Mclaren F1. I wish I was more of a car guy at the time.

It's not quite as AI as a Biturbo made out of Lego, but I'm still excited to spend way too much money so I can put it on a shelf alongside my orange Porsche.
I will add that to my orange Porsche as soon as I finish my Disney castle (sad but true).

Goddamn I love how Icelanders do their heavy duty stuff. I don't know what it is about their roads that mandate such enormous tires (this isn't the biggest I've seen, just the best snap so far) but I love them for it.




I guess for river crossing or staying on top of snow? Off roading is illegal here and while the roads do get lovely, they aren't rock crawling adventures.
So many awesome 4x4s in Iceland. The remote roads get really, really loving lovely, seemingly not far from rock crawling adventures, and they do all sort of river crossings (some tour buses had snorkels).

Hey granddad, do you want to enter the gates of Valhalla at warpspeed?


How about playing 18 on the local muni?

This golf cart is described as having a "2.0 Pontiac motor and is road legal"

I saw a Nissan GTR with an "OMGTR" license plate. I didn't take a picture, but fortunately he had his insta and twitter on the back of the car, so I could find a picture later:


I looked at his instagram figuring he would be a total douchebag (and he certainly looks like one), but he apparently owns a restaurant that focuses on hot dogs, ice cream, and dogs (https://www.instagram.com/vinnydswp/) and that has a perfect 5 yelp star rating (https://www.yelp.com/biz/vinnyds-chicago).

So I am putting it in this thread.

e: or is the logo on the left snapchat? I have no idea.

I just found out the that 1) the lexus LFA existed, 2) it was ugly as poo poo, and 3) it was the most bad-rear end sounding engine on the planet.

e: 9000 rpm redline v10. my mere 8400 rpm v8 redline sounds like poo poo now.

e2: I watched the hoonigan video. Black Rifle coffee co is absolutely maga chud-ey, but the video was sweet. pastrana visited the white house in 2019, so I assume he is Bad.

Probably a lot like when I pulled the valve insert thing from my shower without turning off the water first.

That looks very much like an Iceland build.
I was blown away by the all the awesome and very utilitarian off road builds in iceland.

Like, I wasn't even looking for cool cars, these were just the only two vehicles at my first night's camp site:



Snorkels on everything.

I don't have a picture, but I saw a BMW M coupe (the penis looking one) towing a tiny trailer with track tires on it last weekend.
