As you might guess the owner is a SEGA fan. With a little luck I'll see him and his car at the anual forum's meeting in May 2008.
 
KITT replicas are strangely cool.

The thing is, with the application of off the shelf parts, I think you can actually make the old 'bird physically do 200mph. Pursuit mode!
 
There's a KITT replica here in town, too. They're kinda cool looking and that generation of Firebird is strangely attractive.

Hell yes my bitches. :)
 
From Wednesday:

Yes I know it's at a dealer but this is a Lotus Exige 265E, apparently it runs on bio-fuel.

I was really curious about this, so after a little poking around, I got a little more info about it. I knew the 265E existed as a project car over in the UK, but I had only seen one picture of a white one before yours. Group Lotus has an office in Ann Arbor, and it turns out that Auto Europe helped work on some aspects of the 265E project. They now have that one test car on their floor for show, as it is not for sale, and they some times take it to locally-sponsored Lotus meets.

Tor: which Maser, the Gran Turismo or the Coupe?
 
I'm going to strongly disagree with your opinion. I find that car to be absolutely spot on. An almost-perfect design which is something you don't get those so often these days.

Cool thanks for the additional info, I have to be down in Birmingham later in the week and if it's still there I will stop and take some more photos.

Strong disagree. Seen two in action now. Truly among the worst designs on the road.
 
Volvo V70R AWD, only the second one I've seen. Coming up to the light I only have jokingly said to my buddy "I bet that's an R" and sure enough it was!

That Porsche is just silly. Great stuff! I haven't read the rest of the thread but isn't that a Gemballa special?!

Now, the reason why I didn't read the thread is cos I just saw this and now I am erect...

Am I the only person here who can say they have 2 Lamborghini Countach owners in my village!?

No... cos bloody Imageshack doesn't work...!!! :ouch:

Just to make this post worthwhile...

I strongly disagree. The 612 looks so much better in the metal - and I have seen loads. Such a commanding roadpresence yet retaining such subtlety. That bonnet just goes on forever. I really like this car now, and a comparative bargain (though the 456GT still retains this status more so)
