    New McLaren - saw one up close in person.

    I think that mclaren has the capacity to build 1000 cars a year. Having said that I also got the impression that more models are coming and will share the production line for a total of 1000 road cars a year.

    458

    So I had an opportunity to drive the 458. WOW!!!! The thing feels like it is weightless. If you are puttering an low RPM it is docile. Relatively quite. Ride is supple and enjoyable. Great car to cruise around in. Electro mag really smooths things out. The adjustable ride height button great...

    Inane Ramblings: The Ford GT and Ferrari Lust

    My friend just bought a 458 italia this week. Used with less than 1000 miles. Paid premium price to a ferrari dealership. I arranged to meet up with him several months before and at that time he wasn't buying a Ferrari. His plan is to drive it for a year and then return it to the Ferrari...

    Ford Gt vs ZR1

    I comletely agree.I have driven a ZR1 and almost bought one because it is such a great comfortable daily driver especially with the electromagnetic suspension. The ZR1 will whip a stock gt on the track and a Z06 will loose its roof while trying to .I also own a timex. You must admit the Z06 is a...

    Ford Gt vs ZR1

    FORD GT - raw, exciting harsh and loud and mechanically tuned to drive well. It is like having a large oversized expensive mechanical watch. It can be cumbersome at times and looks awesome. Maybe not something you want to use every day. Will still command peoples attention 10years latter. It is...

    I was lied to and deceived at a Toyota dealership:

    Money is king. Find another one. If it makes you feel better send a letter to customer service of Toyota and report the dealership and let them know this is how they are representing Toyota. Ask them to give you a reason to show some brand loyalty.

    R8 V10 vs Ford GT

    I completely agree with sorouch. The R8 v10 although doesn't have the torque of other vehicles is so much more exploitable on the track. Nice car. ( image: Jeremy Clarckson licking steering wheel while driving). Zo6 carbon edition also faster on the track than the new Porsche turbo and has less...

    The Future's Most Collectible Cars

    Collectability is in direct relationship to desirability. Supply and demand. The reason the porsche gt lost value is because not enough people wanted one badly enough. Doesn't matter if you build one of something, it is valueless if no one wants one. It has been my observation that America...

    Who could sell a GT??

    We all make compromises. Could you imagine eating the same food for the rest of your life. Think of all the experiences you would miss out on. Having 1 woman for the rest of your life the same thing could be said. But with the gt who needs food or a wife? I guess it depends on what taste buds...
