Thanks guys, we almost had a 4th one but my dad decided to get one of his dream cars instead :rolleyes: (Challenger SRT8).

Well, can't fault him there. I've let mine go back & have to actually accept any offers to get back into another right now. :indiff:

My bug!

'67 VW all-original Type 1 with just over 40k miles. My car but dad's not comfortable with me driving it. (Afraid I'll get hurt in accident, afraid it'll get stolen, etc.) so he drives it to work every day. The logic...

More of a fan of the earlier Beetles. But damn that looks great and only 40 thousand miles. :drool:👍

Mine all the way to the right, my brother's in the middle, and the car BMW loaned us while they fixed my mom's X5.

Feels good ///Man :lol:

I kind of got distracted driving up to the mountains today, ended up taking a snapshot while roaming back to my car...

One of the better examples of how my paint looks in direct sunlight.
 
^How does the GTR do compared to the Gallardo (superleggera?) beside you? I bet with just some good tires your GTR can munch it with ease

Daytona violet looks really nice in sunlight 👍 the window tint not as much though :sly:

stock for stock the GTR is more capable than the lambo SL around a track but this particular car in the pic is a race prepped track car and is just badass


here was a video of a lap of my track day

Yeah im entering at maybe mid 120's and carrying 105-110 through them which is good for me as I only get up there 1-2 times a year. backstretch was around 155 though. Yeah the tree fell just a few weeks before our event.. was weird/sad not to see it there

a few more of the lambo

it sounds like this

Great driving, especially considering you only do a couple track days a year, and even more so when you're driving a l car with as high of a limit as a GT-R. It takes some balls to make the tires squeal at 100+ in one of those things.

Yeah if definitely gives you a sense of confidence for sure as its so stable the car is so planted and flat you can enter at that speed and just sort of point and shoot where you want to go..

Braking from 155 to go down the hill demands more balls if your not used to it though. I mean im "experienced" in fact that ive been tracking for about 10 years but totally self taught ( on GT lol) but I mainly do a bunch of Autocross as thats where I really shine as i can drive 10/10ths. Like i said I only hit that specific track mainly every summer for our annual event the chance so as long as im consistent driving say 8/10ths and walk away with the car in one piece its a win for me...I do it in moderation as wear and tear is pretty high to be a weekend warrior at the track in the car(tires/brakes)

However I did the Circuit of the Americas F1 track in a 2014 GTR track edition back in June and that was epic!!!

It amazes me how well GTRs do on the track, it's a shame people here only use them for 1/4 and 1/2 miles (some of the fastest in the world) but I'd love to see more on the track, guess we need bigger/better tracks

I nearly had him sold on an E92 M3, but the rumble from that 6.1 liter hooked him... and even though it's a land yacht it can really haul some ass. And you'll be back in one eventually, it took me like 8 months to get mine haha.

I can't describe how jealous I am of your paint color. My car is gonna go one of three ways: Repainted techno w/ modena interior, atlantis blue w/modena, or I'll leave it cosmo and do the interior in red leather... my current color combo was one of my last choices haha.

True, but just not enough for my tastes; all that extra weight just shows when the M3 is over half a second quicker. I think your dad will come around one day. :sly:

Preferably even less than that, though I am in a personal dilemma as I could use the money saved now to pay off the TL within' a year easily & then jump into something quick. Or I could scratch the itch I've been having to ride again & pick up a new bike.

Either way will most likely be a BMW though. :P
 
This is my parents car. Its Volvo S40 2.4T 5 speed Manual. It has Kinetic styling which is the worst i think :lol:. I love her. She is very clean. It still has some factory label inside and the seats are in great condition although she is now almost 9 years old. She was born in the end of 2004 (MY2005).















 
This isn't mine, but I've driven it and I don't really know where else to put it.

It's my grandpa's '91 F250. It has a 300 I6 and a 4spd w/od. It used to have a different bed - one of those with the huge toolboxes on both sides and ladders on top.

She's beautiful! Wonderful condition for a 9 year old car. 👍

Nice F250. I had a carb'd 300 I6 when my 1985 F250 was stock (it's an automatic though. Bulletproof engine, good torque etc. That motor will probably outlast the truck. Best engine Ford ever built. Also very good to see it's got a full float rear axle (probably a Ford Sterling 10.25 though, not a Dana), mines only a semi-float Dana 60 :/ Sexy truck.

I just noticed its only a 2WD model, bummer.


Also, do you know if your grandfather has any of those front hubcaps left? We lost one of them and the other side is still on lol. We do the same thing, leave the front ones on and rip the back ones off :lol:
