There's 'retro inspired' and there's just plain slavish copy.
It's still gorgeous!
i'm super jelly abandon , split buses are going for crazy money at the moment, yours looks pretty clean as well..
The Renault 4 banger killed it for me. It looked cool but it was a wheezer and John DeLorean knew it. Right before the company went under there were preproduction prototypes of twin turbo cars. That would've fixed it!
That's a Gallardo/Huracan clone/chassismate. The two cars are as similar as Chevy Camaros and Pontiac Firebirds were back in the day.
Great rides, all. I just happen to prefer the Italian style over the German smashed jellybean look.
That's QUICKEST, but not fastest. I'm curious what the top speed is.Elon Musk unveiled a new Tesla tonight.....Roadster

That thing screams Jag E Type. Don't let the boys in Coventry hear you say the F word...What is that? A Jag apeing a Ferrari Daytona or Shelby Daytona?
The later ones had the 5.2 liter V-10. Easy to get the K with intercooled twin turbo.Same V-10 cast in Hungary?
I knew some young guys with twin turbo modded Gallardo's. I like the car because it is a smaller car like the McLaren F1. These guys both had one. I asked the one how many bhp it put out. he said on race gas about 1100 bhp. I did not believe him but he brought it by his business and took off in it. It was really fast and loud and probably put out that much horsepower. It was easily over 800 bhp.
And a 500 mile range, so I read.
That range is impressive. 500 miles is a good day's traveling.
Pretty cool...Doble steam powered, 1929 I think it was refurbished into a roadster.
Car still exists, I have an old article about this same exact vehicle in an early '80's Specialty Auto magazine by Hemmings.
A very cool piece of 1920's engineering.
Can cruise at 70 dead quiet until you blow the horn which is a steam whistle like the old trains had (loud).
I loaned him $2000...........Most unfortunately, he's bleeding red ink due t government removing the tax credit
