It was back when it wasn't such a big deal as now.

But stood next to 722 while the Mercedes mechanics warmed her up for Moss to squeeze past and drive out of the paddock to the start with Jenkinson as his passenger.

S2000 are great! Hard to find clean examples that aren't riced out. Great driving cars.
I'll reiterate, the e30 convertible. You can find a very nice example for $8-10k. Super fun to drive, quite reliable if properly maintained. There is a reason so many e30 were turned into race cars and are sought after budget enthusiast cars. They handle well, and the straight six is incredibly smooth, has a nice linear torque curve, and it makes a glorious sound zipping around town 20-50mph. Pedals are perfectly setup for easy heel toe down shifts. I have a 944turbo and a 540i/6speed, and if the weather is decent, and I am running around town, it's always the e30 convertible. Highest smile/mile in the fleet.

I've been casually looking at e30s.. this one has an interesting tidbit in the description

https://bringatrailer.com/listing/19...-cabriolet-14/

"The odometer works intermittently and shows 90k miles, approximately 7k of which were added by the seller. Total mileage is unknown"

No clue if the seller added 7k to the car, or to the intermittently working odometer.. could be interpreted as either.

Coolest thing to happen since this Singer:



Is this:

The Marsian 911

Further proof that the 911 is the greatest car ever made. Long live the 911.

Spotted this Urus outside a local shop today. First one I've ever seen in the wild. Have to admit it's kinda sexy..

[liv2ski]

For the cash difference I would buy the A8

Looks like a rav 4 with a bad body kit from the 80s. Blech. What is Lamborghini? Not this.
I saw one on Monday night. Blah.

Yup. Seriously, Mazda is making better looking crossovers if that's your thing.

If you don't like that one (and nothing against JayPH's opinion at all), come to ATL where you can see them in every stupid stripe of the rainbow even in suede textured wraps that trap pollen adding a green hue to that hot pink wrap.

It's really something to see such an expensive car that looks so bad to begin with, look even worse, and then many of them, all in the same relative place.

What a time to be alive.

Actually RSQ8.

Yeah. I was gonna say. Around here, seems a large % of them are equipped with garish wraps. Saw one recently with the hot pink and another one in gold slathered in Louis Vuitton logos. [/PUKE]

Had some seat time in buddy’s new rsq8, have to say I left a trail of unhappy pedestrians wherever we went. Fun vehicle.

[bagtagley]

What is Lamborghini?

Still better looking than the Urus, though.

[basinbeater]

^^ haha yup.

All class.

[N1CK.]

Simple & understated. Nice.

[HankScorpio]

The Urus is for attention seeking d-bags. If you want practicality and speed for that kind of money, you could buy a proper Ranger Rover AND a decently spec'd 911.

Drove 10 hours today, during which I played leap frog with an Audi S7.

Beautiful car....not sure why you guys don't talk about them more. Are they junk or something?

[basinbeater]

Nice proportions, sleepers for sure. A dude brought an rs5 on a drive we did in the desert one time. It was fast. Audi just left me with a really bad association with the cars after my experience (granted that was years ago with an 07 a4 2.0t quattro manual). Poor chassis balance, engine was poorly matched with the clutch and transmission, and shit kept breaking at 60k miles, and was expensive to fix. So when I see all the audis around I kind of shake my head at em. Don't like em.

Those Sport Coupe Sedans are a tough sell. Whether its Audi, BMW or Benz.

Agreed. I'm not partial to the style although dressed up as an S7 it's looks pretty decent.

[bagtagley]

I love the lines of the A7/S7. Agreed, they’re gorgeous cars.

[gravitylover]

I can't seem to build that Audi love either.
