Car's that make you want to buy a poster like you used to as a kid

Whoever painted that chevy truck has alot of talent. Unfortunately he wasn't blessed with any taste. Just because you can paint everything, doesn't mean you should.

I agree that that GMC is very well done, and I acknowledge that it took a shitload of skill, but in my opinion, that is incredibly ugly...

I like the SLS, and I usually don't like Mercs very much. The Ariel Atom is awesome too.

You said that nicer than I did, but IMO skill and effort aren't worth shit unless you apply to something worthwhile. The truck to begin with was a major fail, yes I know I have one, and the modifications are absurd and a huge waste of money.

Any TVR in general. My favorite cars. This one is just for kicks - TVR Cerbera Speed 12

Looks like a European interpretation of the early Dodge Vipers.

Super light weight, spartan features, and rough running high powered V8's.

V12.

I was going to say, I thought those had V-12s in them. The Speed-6s and Speed-12s are on the Gran Turismo game I have, perhaps a bit surprising for how rare they are.

I think I read somewhere online about the move towards European crash standards in many cars recently. That means a lot of newer cars are going to have flatter and higher noses, in an attempt to push a pedestrian in stead of wiping the legs out and slamming into the front glass. At least the tests show the high flat nose's are less dangerous in low speed hits.

Now back to the topic:

That kinda contradicts the move towards higher fuel efficiency, doesn't it?

I've been wanting to build one of these for a long time

Good thing you're not driving it huh

Good to know I stand a fair chance of surviving if hit by a Rolls-Royce Phantom

[Aaron Clinton 2,372]

The front end absolutely kills it for me. So damn ugly. It's a butter face.

I agree. It's got the grill of an old gullwing, which I think looks dumb

If that's what they were trying for, then they succeeded...

Blasphemy, nothing from a 300SL looks dumb.

Aaron, you beat me to it with the pics. Saw them a few mins ago on Yahoo and wanted to post them.

Yes, but safety standards over the years have made cars more and more heavy, now it is less and less aerodynamic. One party does not care about the fuel consumption if your car is less dangerous.

[Aaron Clinton 2,372]

The challenge is for the automotive engineers to meld the two successfully.

[j-roadtatts 1,129]

This is the car I had posters of. I would still LOVE to own one.

The Cerberras have a 4.6 and 4.2 V8, and the later ones moved to the TVR made inline-6.

The speed 12 has a NA v12 that makes 800+bhp. Thats with no power additives, which is virtually unmatchable.

Lotus 7 kits. This one is a Caterham.

Ultima GTR. Current record holder for the 0-100-0 time.

[Aaron Clinton 2,372]

That Ultma is awesome.

[KU40 173]

Indeed it is. Too bad they put the steering wheel on the wrong side! I can't shift with my left hand!

It's not very hard once you get used to it. I have a few right hand drive vehicles at my house.

[dem beats 1,223]

All time favorite looking cars from my youth?

ford 32

or

ford 37

Of course I loved the Diablo, but I was also into Supra's and late 60's early 70's muscle. Mach 1's. Boss mustangs.

1956 Bel Air 2 Door Hardtop

[Tirefryr 1,742]

55-57 Chevy's are classic beauties! I love the 59 Biscayne about as much also.

However, this is by far the sexiest vehicle I have EVER laid eyes on.

[Aaron Clinton 2,372]

Ryan, I did not know you liked Italian ladies.

[Aaron Clinton 2,372]

The F1 LM ranks up there with the SLS for me.

[Tirefryr 1,742]

Ryan, I did not know you liked Italian ladies.

Of course I do! The Prancing Horse and the Raging Bull are my dreams, but of course, I can only afford a pony. I have a fondness in my heart for the older Alfas too, but the new(er) C8 is just beautiful.

[dem beats 1,223]

I also had Aston pron on my walls. Vantage and vanquish.

The v12 Vantage would be on my wall today I bet. I thought I would throw one up here. I'm in love... A bit like the SL though it's so over the top it's almost wrong... but I still love it.

Atson knows how to make one sweet onion booty.
