Snowboard246 Posted January 26, 2011 Posted January 26, 2011 You havent seen nothing yet!! Took this picture in LA back in Dec. 2007, I thought I saw an Indie Racing Car only to find out that it was a Maserati. Then later noticed the Maybach in front of it.
ParkTrips Posted January 26, 2011 Posted January 26, 2011 The Maybach is nothing too crazy - there are a few in my city alone. The MC 12, however, is incredibly rare. I think there are only 12 in the US
BeemerBoy Posted January 26, 2011 Posted January 26, 2011 Yep, definitely rare. There were only 50 made, and here's the register. It's even more rare though to see one on the streets. And scroll down here to see the racing version of it. Â The Maybach? Meh, I'd rather drive than be driven.
Hotlanta Posted January 31, 2011 Posted January 31, 2011 Here's what happens when a 458 Italia meets a F-150. From Autoblog: Â The accident happened in Brandon, Florida, when the Ferrari driver allegedly decided that the yellow paint on the ground didn't apply to him (investigation still pending...). When he went to pass another car, he found a Ford pickup heading straight for his front bumper. The F-150 didn't stop at the low-lying nose and ended up with its left-front tire on the hood of the 458. Fortunately, it appears that no serious injuries resulted. Â
BeemerBoy Posted February 1, 2011 Posted February 1, 2011 LOL. Well, if the dbag in the Ferrari really did ignore the traffic laws (and he's driving a Ferrari in Florida - so there's a 99.9% chance that's the case), then he got exactly what he deserved. Â Â Â The car just deserved a better owner........like me.
Snowboard246 Posted February 8, 2011 Posted February 8, 2011 If you haven't seen the trip report to Uncle Bernie's Amusement Park then I will fill you in on the details. Â The small fun zone is located at the Swap Shop in Ft. Lauderdale which is a giant open flea market, however for some random reason the owner of the place keeps all his exotic cars there! Over 10 million dollars of cars just sitting at a flea market! MC-12, the second one I have seen in person (pic of one above) Enzo Ferrari McLaren Ford GT Carerra GT Bugatti Veyron!!! 911 GT3 FXX!

brilinjo Posted February 25, 2011 Posted February 25, 2011 ^^ saving my deposit as we speak. Might take a while though.
A.J. Posted February 25, 2011 Posted February 25, 2011 What's the point? The Virage is just a Rapide with two doors.
BeemerBoy Posted February 25, 2011 Posted February 25, 2011 What's the point? The Virage is just a Rapide with two doors. If you have to ask this question, then you probably won't ever *get it* no matter how hard you try. Â Â I think it's beautiful. And an Aston engine produces one of the sweetest sounds known to man.
ParkTrips Posted February 25, 2011 Posted February 25, 2011 Porsche and Aston both have lineups full of similar cars and they rarely see drastic changes. People complain when Porsche does it because, let's face it, the 911 isn't the hottest looking car, but no one cares that Aston does it because every car they make is gorgeous.
no_brain_er Posted February 25, 2011 Posted February 25, 2011 I've always had a slight obsession with this one... Alfa Romeo 8c Competizione.
cprocks22 Posted February 26, 2011 Posted February 26, 2011 ^^Absolutely gorgeous car, but I prefer the 8C Spider... So nice...
AJClarke0912 Posted February 26, 2011 Posted February 26, 2011 Â This car is amazing. If you haven't read reviews about it (or watched Top Gear's review on it), you should. This source claims it goes from 0-60 in 2.3 seconds! And watching this car fly around corners is just awesome! Â I'm not usually into the sort of F1/Indy car look, but I love the looks of this car...and it's performance! And it's cheap compared to the high-end Ferraris it competes with!
BeemerBoy Posted February 26, 2011 Posted February 26, 2011 ^ It's cheap compared to a Ferrari because it's just a high end go-cart.
AJClarke0912 Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 ^Yeah, of course it is. But it looks great (I think) and looks fun to drive!
Ace Of Spades Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 My current obsession: Â Why in the hell aren't these things as popular as some of the other newer supercars, like the R8 and the Veyron? They're so unbelievably awesome and fantastically styled! Â ^^^Also on my list of modern supercars that need more attention!
AJClarke0912 Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 It's funny. I really like the Zonda, but when it boils down to it, I'd much rather get a Koenigsegg or something else very high end.
BeemerBoy Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 The Zonda reminds me of something your annoying local tuner kids and Paris Hilton designed together. Seriously, it's tough to look cool in something like this....... Is a toy poodle a standard accessory on this thing?
Ace Of Spades Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 ^Whoa, what the hell? Every interior shot I've seen has looked nothing like that. Â I'll agree that whoever designed that particular interior was channeling some really lame ideas.
Cameron Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 No love for the Barbie Fiat 500??! Â allworldcars.com/wordpress/?p=11086 Â Cameron.
AJClarke0912 Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 ^^^Is that the Zonda Cinque? If so, what a waste! The outside looks awesome and the inside looks stupid.
