Car Porn.......beauty meets speed (SFW)

There is NO substitute. That car was rad. ...The forerunner of all Porsche front engine vehicles.

Last month, I filled my car up with gas in Aspen with the plan of zipping thru Indy Pass. Along side me at the gas station, was a newish silver Aston Martin driven by a youngish tattooed lady. She finished just before me and exited first. Of course, although I didn't know her, she had the same plans as me. The problem was that although there were very few cars/pedestrians, etc. on the road, she chose to talk on the phone, adjust her make-up and never exceed 35mph. I was so f##king pissed. I don't think that I ever got the turbo out of 3rd gear.

You, sir, are the fucking pussy.

This rad montage is just missing the acid-washed jeans and Croakie-equipped Wayfarers.

[BmillsSkier]

Is it bad I still have Croakie-equipped Wayfarers?

[Mazderati]

It would be more surprising if you didn't. And you're not the only one.

Lovely. New toy?

The last GS, and an F at that. Nice.

[Mazderati]

Mid-corona crisis. Yaya.

Dope. I’m with you on tha engine. I’ve been out kicking the tires on LCs. End of an era N/A engine with attitude. The GS would be more practical though. Had a GS awd ‘14 great car.
Tell us more. What year- what color interior?

[schindlerpiste]

What can I say. My kid was in the car, and we just exited The Green Solution.

Yeah, end of the line for the GS and the n/a V8 sedan isn't far behind. Those were definitely a factor. Black interior and final model year. I looked used but with less than 2,500 made for the US market pickings are slim and quite a few of those are already beat.




I had the chance to drive the LC on an autocross course two years ago and it was a blast. Drove great, sounded great, and has the 10 speed which is even better. The design took a while to grow on me but I'm a big fan now. Toyota even offering TRD parts.

[BmillsSkier]

Sweet ride, Maz.

That SC above looks sick.

[Mazderati]

Thanks, mang. Did you ever post any pictures of your wagon?

[BmillsSkier]

My allroad? Yeah definitely in Wagon Stoke and it had its own thread when I was shopping it too.

Nice. Knew it was an Audi wagon but didn't remember it was an Allroad. Audi's design team consistently produces good looking cars.

Tasty. I love those allroads. I'm still miffed that the wife does not share in my allroad lust.

[BmillsSkier]

Thanks fellas, I’ve got to say it’s just about the perfect all-arounder for me when it’s not just me in the car. I’m eyeing the new A6 Allroad for a year or two from now and after reading the 2021 Car and Driver review in tandem with the A4 Allroad review, I think I’d stay in this size unless my family grows between now and then.

Which would be a whole other issue I suppose.

Those things are so damn sick. The greatest car ever according to Clarkson.

I always wondered how they ended up cause if I’m not mistaken, I thought they were all initially leases.

[BmillsSkier]

Incredible car bingo was pretty amazing today on the way home from the office. We're enjoying a particularly nice start to fall with 80 degree temps and relatively empty roads so I think people were eager to get out for a drive.

I saw an Aventador pulling out of the office (not my cup of tea but hey);

Mile down the road an F355 pulls up next to me with the windows down. I ask if its a manual and the guy says "gated and beautiful!";

Shortly after that I pull alongside the cleanest looking Rolls Dawn convertible I've ever seen (and a Rolls is definitely on the Uncool part of my car wall), but it was too good looking. Deep navy exterior with Hermes orange leather interior. Homeboy driving it looked the part too; then

The piece de la resistance... my first ever Singer in the wild. It was across a major intersection in the front row and thank the car Gods it was turning left so I got to take it all in. Looked and sounded exactly as cool as I thought one would. Amazing car. Looked like this one:

Not sure but new LFAs are still being sold.

Going to the office wouldn't be as bad seeing cars like that every day.

That's awesome. I'd have to go with the original white. Only white car I'd probably ever own, but man it's just classic.

LOL, I thought of that exact clip about 30 minutes after the interaction.

I'm not gonna lie, I have a nice commute through a very nice part of town (bonus, the road I take, Northside Drive, is a great, hilly, twisty, lightly travelled, road with only 2 stops through a densely forested residential area where the houses can't be seen from the road full of dbags with great cars.

I forgot to mention that I also saw a new Audi R8 V10 waiting to pull out of a driveway. Those things never cease to impress me. So wide, so slick, but not douchey in any way. (I think)

[basinbeater]

I saw one of those lfas in park city at cars and coffee last summer. It was badass. Sounded awesome too.
My house is on a hill that leads to a MUCH fancier part of town. Every night at 6pm there is a steady parade of badass cars driving up the hill. Some of the owners have stopped by to say hi because they see me working on my Porsche or bmw. There are 964 rs america, lotus evora, ferrari, vintage maserati, porsche gt2 rs, rug Porsche,

(or should this go in wagon stoke?)

[gravitylover]

That's pretty cool. I've always wanted an SX4 and yesterday I saw one on Fb yesterday with a built 360 swap with a 5 speed. I can't find the post now.
