I've always like Aston Martins, but lately I want one of the new generation electric sports cars.

Scratch that. I want Danica Patrick AND her car ;\)

I saw a new Z06 in San Francisco last week. THAT is a nice car.


I drove my buddies. Yes, IT IS a nice car. Unfortunately, like the Shelby Mustang, dealers are tacking onto the MSRP a thing they call "market adjustment fee". The fee is roughly 20K for the Mustang and 30K for Z06. The dealer has a burnt orange 05 on the showroom floor with a 65K price tag on it. A two year old, used Z06 selling for more than its original MSRP. .……sigh……

Doc, you need a Mazda Miata MX-5. It'll fit you like a glove!

I was momentarily startled when I saw your new avatar. We haven't seen it for over four years here, but it was used by "sushi"(Dr. Masashi Yanagisawa)on his many very informative posts before he suddenly just stopped. He's been sorely missed by the veteran members here, and seeing the avatar on a new post brought back pleasant memories(and admittedly, a brief twinge of disappointment).

Enjoy the music, not the equipment.

I didn't think I'd be the only one pining after sushi upon seeing his avatar resurrected from the grave. I did check the url of the image to be sure doc wasn't stealing bandwidth from him. He did the decent thing and copied it to photobucket.

Now back to cars....

yeah, those markups are crazy. you're better off buying the originals at those prices.

Perhaps a Yenko Camaro?

There was either one or a replica of one (had to be a replica...) that parked at my Dad's old place of work, an aerospace company. Had to be a replica...

The Ariel Atom (insane to drive car)


The De Tomaso Pantera:


The 427 Cobra (what a sexy beast)
