Zeno~SPARTA~ Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 As ususal at this time of year I went to the geneva motorshow to ogle desirous cars I cannot afford. Several cars were launched at the show including Audi V10 engined R8 and the first ever RS version of the TT (pushing mine off the top of the rack ) I didnt take photos of them. Here is a small selection of piccies taken with my portable phone Some hot stuff Couple of Oldies A Couple of racers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zathrus~SPARTA~ Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 I really like the cars in the 1rst, 5th and 7th pictures, but I am not sure what they are. I think the 5th one might be a Nissan. Can you identify them for me? I have been squirming lately because Dodge is cutting the prices on the Dodge Challenger very deeply. It would be nice to have one in the garage for sunday afternoons... or any afternoon for that matter. Definately not a daily driver unless you buy the high-output V6 version though. I just spec'd out a "plain Jane" RT for $30,145.00 (I added the R/T stripes) An additional incentive for everyone called the employee discount of $2,729.00 brings the price down to $27,416.00 I have been told that because of the 16% unemployment my area, there are additional incentives for the dealers that can drive the price down further (if he needs to move it). I would guess this car would get down to between 25k and 26k. However, my conservative side has resisted getting an actual quote because it might start a chain of events leading to one in my garage. I don't really need that right now. But I am betting they will be worth alot 20 years or so down the road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zathrus~SPARTA~ Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 Yeah... maybe a Challenger... just like the one in "Vanishing Point", white with all the important stuff and no fluff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MedicSN6 Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 (edited) That AM DBS is just my speed. The speed of BOND. (Not BondO.) When I rob a bank, I will totally get one. Edited March 11, 2009 by Medic~SPARTA~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zeno~SPARTA~ Posted March 12, 2009 Author Share Posted March 12, 2009 Everyone looks good in an Aston Martin, good choice. Although the Maserati Grantourismo is not as good a car I do like it, but its a lot cheaper than the DBS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TargetPractice Posted March 12, 2009 Share Posted March 12, 2009 Not usually a fan of exotic cars (I drive a 306 'nuff said ) but the Maserati - from that angle - does look the nuts The Audi further down looks like it would be more at home toboganning than on the road Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Watchman~SPARTA~ Posted March 12, 2009 Share Posted March 12, 2009 Everyone looks good in an Aston Martin, good choice. Well, I can vouch for that. Amazing how girlies that wouldn't normally give you a look-in, can be snagged by a car! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zeno~SPARTA~ Posted March 17, 2009 Author Share Posted March 17, 2009 I forgot to post this, the new Aston Martin V12 vantage. Based on the 4.0 litre V8 model its been stretched to accomodate the 6.0 litre V12 with 517 BHP. Sorry its not a great photo Here's a picure from the Geneva show that I didnt take.

MedicSN6 Posted March 17, 2009 Share Posted March 17, 2009 Sorry its not a great photo Yeah... well I am still drooling. Who wants in on this bank job? Low key job, and I already have the schematics in hand. You have to be cool though. None of that HEAT, fucking shooting people for no reason BS. And NO outsiders.

Our ride & handling guys say it's the best thing we've ever made. Very easy to get sideways, now just have to work out who I need to sleep with to get a weekend in one.....
