Cars that make your jaw drop.

That silver Camaro is atrocious. Rogan's is indeed gorgeous. The Roadster Shop does incredible work.

Lord Atrocious? how? Very similar work the Roegans. This silver one has dual turbos and some amazing work.

1972 to 1979 have entered the chat.

The front suspension setup of custom street rods errywhere!

Because they showed up dead in wrecking yards by the thousands relatively early in their lives., With the front ends intact... Lol

There's no accounting for taste

For me, a 17" wheel is the max for an early Camaro. Anything bigger and the proportion goes wonky.

My current obsession is Dr. David Enderby's "Special Saloon" Karmann Ghia.

This just got announced today.

[TheRobSJ]

Oooooooo. But…is that US bound?

 

[Kornholio]

Probably not. We never get the good stuff.

 

[TheRobSJ]

Yup. That said, I did just have an E63S Estate come through the shop for used car inspection. Proper massaging seats, not just the seatback like most of the other brands do…also with butt stuff. Burmester sound, HUD, pretty much everything except CCBs. Great spec. I think it got sold before we even finished smog and safety on it.

I bet it would come to America if Mercedes would release a lifted version that came with a roll coal package.

Oh and a freedom eagle badge for, you know, freedom.

Sad, but true.

But I honestly don't even want all those features that Rob was touting. I just want a good chassis, brakes, transmission, suspension and engine wrapped up in a sexy wagon package. I don't need the massaging seats or other bullshit that luxury marques continue to assume we want.

 

[Dubbington]

Warning in advance for those that prefer the stock off the lot run of the mill look, lots of custom metal fabrication here.

I did mention that the seats have butt stuff didn’t I?

You will you want it. You just don’t know you want it until you’ve tried it. First it was heated seats. Naaaahh, this isn’t Alaska we don’t neeeee…hey those are kinda nice! Then cooled seats came along. Naaaaah, the car already has A/C it’ll be fin….oooh well that’s kind of refreshing! Massage seats are just amazing if you take a really long road trip. Or hell, even the 10 minute commute home from work.

 

[Blankpage]

Yep I want all that stuff.


Now lowriders, that’s a dumb idea. Can’t even clear a speed bump. How did that ever become a thing.

It's a sexy beast, but are the fake V8 noises really necessary?

Thanks to Euro 6 standards, yes

I'm sure that truck is bagged so it'll raise up enough to make it drivable. But I'd be surprised if it ever really got driven. It's a show piece.

They're required by law to make fake V8 noises?

Yep this is me now also. I went from loving tiny underpowered budget hatchback cars to needing to the car to automatically move the seats to my desired seating position when I get in.
