Cars that make your jaw drop.

I get the light v6 turbo with awesome power thing but at the end of the day it sounds like a fart can. I know but to me it kills the romance and personality of cars like this. I don't wanna get into the f1 debate cuz I get it, but again the new engines just don't give me the feels the v8s 10s and 12s do
 
Ford bashers crack me up.

FERD SUCKS!

No way if I were spending that much money it would have a Ford badge on it.

I've never understood brand loyalty. When it comes to cars, motorcycles, detergent, etc., I'm going to buy the best one I can afford.

Plus, names carry little weight any more, at least to me. I see 20-something thugs driving S-Class Mercedes somewhat regularly. Almost any jackass can pick up an old Ferrari 308 if they really wanted. Certain Porsches can be had for pocket change. So what does it really matter what label is on the steering wheel?

Also, They are not loyal to you so why should you be loyal to Them? :party
 
The LF-A is a technological masterpiece that ended up being less than the sum of its parts.
 
^ there ya go. Timeless beauty. Loved mine, loved it even more when it had an LS6 in it!

Pretty much. It spent too much time in committee. Had it been released maybe a few years earlier? Might have made more of a splash. By the time it was on market, you had cars going for 1/4 it's price (GT-R, Z06, etc) that were already out and still outperforming it.

Spoiler alert-2017 NSX suffers this same outcome to some extent. The competition it was benchmarked against has already moved on to new generation designs.
 
LOVE the FD pics! One of my all time favorite cars, for sure.

The closest I'll ever get to owning an FD is probably the fact that I have FD wheels on my car. :(

Wasn't that Mark's car?

Guy with the screen name Hyperion brought his car up to my place before a trackday at Thunderhill - that was the best sorted/put together car I've laid my eyes on.
