  1. that he did, ever read up on the XJ220 - one of 2 cars that were made with the V12 motor and not the V6 turbo motor ? also my other fav's R390 LM Xj15 - was this TWR racing ? or someone else ? XJ220
  2. just make sure you check under the car when you get it, yup I know you have to be one slim person to get into a car inside a container.
  3. op is it going RO-RO or container ?
  4. Just a question to provoke someone else not you. It's the internet's, if stupidity is what offends you might just rip the DSL line out of the wall and just start reading the paper.
  5. It was always easy to control, since it was an ex N1 car . locked rear diff and the coilover suspension by ohlins cost more then the car .
  6. Good god this goes back to a story when Irv Ogner who use to own the Auto Gallery and R32 GTR back in Southern California in 1992.
  7. Question, who is the company that will be insuring ya ? and what sort of policy will you be carrying with this sort of car ?. Just asking, no H8n from here. .
  8. funniest car I have ever had for the shortest time, RHD import from japan Apex Levin , digi dash , coilovers. anyone can go sideways but control is they key.
  9. Ok LP, I are serious : have this question to present to you all , if a SLR or SLS is in a roll over crash, IE how do the doors open ? ? ? ................................ some have said stuff about explosive bolts ? can any one clear this up ?
  10. +10 and who knows dad or mom might be hedging a bet on the kids life insurance, I sure hope not, this isn't going to end well, however best of luck .
  11. hey dont put 4loco out of business, they should just bulk sell to the US military, just air drop shipments of this stuff all over Afghanistan/northern Pakistan & Iran. its hella cheaper then going to war, when your opponents are completely smashed
  12. Hooning / Hoon law : Street racing / drifting / anything that is related to exhibition of speed/reckless driving. ***************just remember each cop is to his own, how this is determined************* Rapid acceleration from a standing start. Breaking traction. Sliding around / drifting passing over yellows Parking lot bald spot doughnuts rapid lane changes improper passing and unsafe lane changes Excessive speed/ double the posted speed limit. as RD mentioned "thankgod" we live, but example in Switzerland I have seen people in a ferrari being pulled over and cited for not the proper documents regarding a wing on the car, last I heard it was a 4,300usd ticket since it was not legal to have on the car . Australia has had its fair share of really bad street racing crashes and HOONING law is a result of it. Did my street hooning on the track today in the rain slush/icy was the mix of the day. however on my way back I really enjoyed people blasting past me going 80+mph in the rain slicked roads. from Agroura 101s, car crashes littered the roads. 06 cobra mustang - rollover - how the hell can you roll a mustang ? 10 Cadalac - Cadalaic srx - blew past me in the #1 lane - started hydro planing and went from the # 1 lane into # 5 lane and backwards into the coco's parking lot that is right next to the on ramp. - im sure the driver shat their pants. 09 101S (by the MBZ - calabasas dealer) Ford Focus cliped the onramp traffic meter light post.
  13. Raw Video: Ferrari Tangles With Train in Texas nice to know that 911 has trained people.
  14. Just know as the japanese companies have used parts bin sharing for its 90% of its products , this is what VW is trying to do with BMW and MBZ soon. Fiat controls a lot of big suppliers as well has a very good niche in the market place, mainly fiats sell off of 20% of Ferrari is about that much.
  15. geez sounds like a home owners asoc.
  16. Fiat has very interestingly a very sound financial structure, and is overall in a very good position, to do its thing. Something interesting is going to be coming up with this might be VW's way of distracting its other planned merger/acquisition's. I'd think VW better work on its USA customer service, and service issues with customers as its in the D+/C- category.
  17. will never happen, Fiat will not let that go for cheap, will see a platform sharing with VW, Fiat and some Chrysler models.
  18. needs a big fat Ferrari Ta too
  19. back in the bmw catalog there are some Hybid X5 & X6's out now. just very few of them last I had seen only 5 were for sale in all of the state of california
  20. if you bought it : chip / inter cooler upgrade & water sprayer/ down pipe. Dinan & look into the bmw tuners, non of the uk or euro spec tunes or parts are legal or compatible for usdm versions. leased ? : leave it stock. best MPG for the Diesel power plants is just roll the throttle from standing starts and hard compound tires / light weight rims. Rolling the throttle = just like when you floor a Rolls Royce Phantom where its a smooth consistence flow of power, where as stomping on the throttle @ 100% on a green light.
  21. Chris Bangle, designs the next Lamborghini , Starring Warren Buffet as the accountant for the task. there's a horror film right there in the making
