Cars, Love it or Hate it.

Found another gem on the swedish car site :)
Also the right stance and look imo.

215 horses is enough in such a small car,
Also cool with a dogleg gearbox.

I love the touring as well, although no M3 E30 was made as touring but that doesn´t stop some.
This guy slapped in a M3 E36 3.0 (286hp) engine in a touring.
Really nice looking car i have to say.

I'm thinking about trading my truck in for one of these at the end of October
scaled.php


Either a 2012 or 2013 Mustang GT in this blue colour. I've been driving my girlfriends V6 a lot lately and i'm really enjoying the 6spd and RWD. I test drove a GT yesterday and i'm wanting one for myself.

I got a trade appraisal for my truck and i will get $29600 trade value. A used 2012 Mustang sells for @ $28000 to $31000 depending on the options and because i dealt with the dealership 6 times i can get a 2013 for @ $36000.
 
I'm scrapping the whole getting a new car thing. I'll be sacrificing too many luxuries and conveniences getting rid of the truck.


Edit: It's not just the above reason that i decided to keep the truck. it's also that fact that although it does have over 500hp now a 4900 pound suv can bend the laws of physics and can beat or keep up with a lot of more expensive sports cars and some exotic cars as well. Mind you in a straight line of course but i'm a 1/4 mile guy so that is where it matters to me most.

One just doesn't expect to see me keep up with their Lamborghini Gallardo when they try to leave me off the dig :D
 
I love Land Rovers, especially the early ones. Series I & II

They're pretty loved in our house too. My dad had a S1. My mum has had and restored several SIII's (an 88, a couple of 109s, and a 109SW) and a S1 Disco. Also had an 08 Defender from new but the less said about that the better. :D

I should get my ass to Billing again, haven't been for a long while now.

We've done all sorts on them from gearbox changes to custom sleeper benches for those long journeys clucking along at 55mph everywhere,

All of which has taught me that the most important spanner in the world is 7/16 :D
 
This'll absolutely 'clean your clock'. A wolf in sheep's clothing.
I just built a brand new 2.3 with JE coated pistons, top-mount turbo with 3" custom headpipe and tuned manifolds. Full koni Sports with Eibach springs, six-point subframe brace, rear custom sway bar and steering rack brace, custom tuning is used for mixture and injector duration. One 'extremely wicked' Viggen. Can you say 'boat-loads' of fun?

BMW i8 2013 specs
The hybrid engine in the BMW i8 uses a 1.5-litre petrol engine with 220bhp to power the rear wheels and a 129bhp electric motor to power the front wheels. That means 0-62mph takes 4.6 seconds and it will reach a top speed of 155mph.

However the hybrid nature of the car means the BMW i8's fuel economy could be as high as 104.6mpg. The car's low-weight materials especially mean that it will feel fast and not use as much fuel. The car is expected to handle very well, too, again thanks to the low weight of just 1,480kg – 195kg lighter than a BMW M3.
