I actually thought the BMW Z8 was a cool car, there was something retro about it.
There's an R8 driver up my road and ive had a lotus (last year) aston martin (yesterday) in the same area too nice cars ive got pics. oh yeah and a Noble M12 & lamborghini murcielago [URL=http://img121.imageshack.us/i/314159140a8014251188l.jpg/][IMG]http://img121.imageshack.us/img121/6711/314159140a8014251188l.jpg[/IMG][/URL] [URL=http://img190.imageshack.us/i/314159140a8014275212l.jpg/][IMG]http://img190.imageshack.us/img190/3712/314159140a8014275212l.jpg[/IMG][/URL] [URL=http://img3.imageshack.us/i/314159140a8071328573l.jpg/][IMG]http://img3.imageshack.us/img3/6121/314159140a8071328573l.jpg[/IMG][/URL] RIP my samsung u600 (camera phone)
[QUOTE=SHoGuNN3R;17561289]Time for a German Car. Does anyone think the BMW Z8 looks pretty cool? [img]http://www.carmyspacelayout.com/images/backgrounds/bmw-0006.jpg[/img] [editline]10:29AM[/editline] Also the Z1. [media]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/f/f6/BMW_Z1_closed.jpg[/media][/QUOTE] I think I saw a Z1 on Saturday. I'm not sure, it was deffinatly a BMW convertable I had never saw before. I saw it when I was on the bus on the way home from work. I know the car was an "H-reg", (1990 model) and I only saw the rear of the car as it was infront of the bus.

Such a nice car looks wise, although I hear somewhat uncomfortable to drive normally, the performance from them on a track is great and they're fairly cheap.
Elise is supposedly much better on the road if you want a roadcar. I love both of them though. There is (or at least was) a video on the making of Elise (or Project 111 as it were) on Google video. Just search for Lotus Elise, it's like 2,5 hours long.
The Exige is a racer, your spine would scream on normal roads.
I just saw how fast the Ariel Atom 2 was... Wow... Faster than the lotus (elise or exige, can't remember).

[QUOTE=Sporkfire;17561684]ah the poor man's lexus. Seriously though that still looks like a pretty sweet car, I'd be happy to have it lol[/QUOTE] Oh I'm happy with it none the less. It has a bushing busted in the back so it will slide if I hit a large bump on wet roads at any high speed, so its not so safe right now. Its just not my type of car, when I get mine it will be a downgrade of quality anyway, something that if I wreck it, it won't be so bad, but the car is still nice and looks nice. I just hate putting all the miles on my mom's car.
[QUOTE=Occlusion;17583266]The Exige is a racer, your spine would scream on normal roads.[/QUOTE] Funny you should say that, I saw some English blokes (racing style names + flags on the windows gave that away) seemingly roadtripping across france in Exiges over the summer, about 50 miles out from Calais heading home. 5 of them in convoy on the french motorway, quite a sight. I would have liked to have spoken to them, but I didn't see them at the ferry (I assume they got there a hell of a lot quicker than we did)
[QUOTE=Cypher_09;17584097]I just saw how fast the Ariel Atom 2 was... Wow... Faster than the lotus (elise or exige, can't remember).[/QUOTE] Faster than both I imagine.

I drive a 1990 Isuzu Amigo. It's a stick. :smug:
whenever I see the thread title it always reminds me of Gary Numan :v:

Exhaust flames usually look like something's wrong with your car and misfiring systems make it look like your car is held together by duct tape and running a two-stroke engine
My M3 can smoke a Porsche GT3. Pics soon

I'm gonna buy a car in the next few weeks and found 3 candidates. A '99 Mazda 626 for 2000$ with 160000 km (Negotiable) A '92 Mazda 323 (Hatchback) for 900 $, transmission was changed, windshield was changed. 148000 km A '97 Ford Escort, for 800 $, 120000 km body has some scratches but the rest is perfect. Which one is the best. Considering that I have about 2200 $ right now and I need to pay insurance and license plates.
I've heard Mazda 626 are decent cars, but no personal experience. I'd avoid the 323 just cause its hideous, and the escort sounds a bit iffy for the price. the 626 would probably last you the longest and be the most reliable.
