nothing annoys me more than people who buy such cars and hide em/never drive em. if you can afford these 3 you can afford to keep em on the road

Edited by R-SPEC

i think i'd go.....

1. Porsche GT3 RS

2. BMW e40 m5...have always loved them

3. MCR R34 GTR...for shizzle my nizzle

and i'd park them in the mansion in brighton, let my supermodel wife wash them in her bikini while the mistress feeds me grapes...

oooooh yeaaahhhhh

Edited by Phantom32

1. Porsche 997 GT3RS

2. R34 GTR V-Spec II

3. Mitsubishi Pajero (I love 4wding in the dunes and scrub in outback NSW.) with maximum 4wd mods. And big Air Con and tow bar in case the other two need a lift.

Ok Here is my list.

The daily driver / family / trip to the snow car. Audi RS4 Avant

The weekend car for trips to Buxton. Ferrari 599 GTB (Hamann version if we are allowed to be stupid)

35984.jpg

Car 3 is my track car. If this is allowed to break the rules then I'd get a Koenigsegg CCX.

I love the in car adjustability of ride height, damper and roll bars. It is just a purpose built speed machine but it isn't sanitised.

If that is not allowed I'd take a 997 GT3RS right now.

Porsche would do well out of us :laugh:

It's funny - before working here, I had never driven a Porsche. Now I don't know I ever lived without one.

The SPORT button on the GT3 is worth all the Vortex Generators in the world!

Now to push the boss into getting a black RS!

And Snowy - am off en Francais as of Friday. RS4-goodness when I get back :(

Get one, take me for a spin and I'll love you forever. :rofl:

You're off to Le Mans I take it? Might see ya there mate >_<

Well here is mine:

Bugatti Veyron (how can you say no to the fastest most expensive production car in the world):

bugatti-eb-164-veyron.jpg

Nissan Skyline R34 GTR Z-Tune, I love skylines, so I can't pass up the best one ever built:

2005070805741_thumb.jpg

The soon to be released Audi RS6 (with lamborghini V10 that has been twin-turbo charged), something cruisy for day to day:

n.b - (unoffical photo)

rs6.jpg

That would be a sweet garage.

Then with my own money, I would buy (once it comes out) a VE SS-V ute in white, dumped on its arse with 20" bbs rims and chev badges...... dont ask, I just like them!.... And a 32 GTR V-SpecII.... and ...... and.........

2. BMW e40 m5...have always loved them

Do you mean the E34, E39 or E60 M5? Only reason why I ask is that I have an E39 M5 (Imola Red/Caramel), that your more than welcome to have a drive of if you've not driven one before?

As for my list....

1) Aerial Atom 2-300

ariel_atom_clarkson_video.jpg ... love that photo... instant facelift

2) Ascari KZ1

2006_Ascari_KZ1_%20side.jpg

3) BMW X5 3.0 Diesel

bmw-x5-1.jpg

atom: super sounding, light as buggery, makes it the ultimate track toy... even Jeremy Clarkson liked it...

ascari: ... has people saying.. its a what????.... and it has the same S62 that my car has.. 1:20 around the TG test track (10th fastest) is nothing to sneeze at.

X5: Great for lugging prams, and all manner of child related paraphanalia.

    • Yep, that was one of the things we learned fast in the past with our MX5. When you drive with the top down, you are effectively standing out in the sun, 100% of the time, and not getting in any shade (because roads aren't shaded generally!). Just like standing out in the middle of a field on a sunny 27C day is a bit of a bad plan, so is sitting in a MX5 without sun protection.
    • I also just ordered some Frankenstein bolts and side mounts to fit a hard top Just in case I do find one, basically so it doesn't need to be fixed to the car with only the front latch.......and then gaffa tape to keep it in place for the RTN journey from wherever I get it
    • If your temps are fine now, you probably won't have any issues with where your vents are as they don't look right up at the windscreens high pressure area, so any differences when giving it the beans for extended happy laps would be minimal, but, they should vent heaps when stuck in traffic  Much like how that reverse cowl on my SS let "visible" heat out when stationary, but, because it was basically at the windscreen my coolant temps on the Hwy actually raised because air was being fed into it at speed (110kph), to only come back down to around 90° when I got off the Hwy And your 100% correct about the NC currently not needing vents, but, if I was to add a turbo, and a oil cooler and intercooler in front of the condenserand radiator, and then take it to the track???? It is apparently a recommend requirement if I don't want to worry about coolant or oil temp issues, but, any of the above are possible scenarios, over time As it sits now, with the triple pass radiator and stock air conditioning system, I have absolutely no issues with either temps or air conditioning efficiency, I've been basically daily driving thie car for the last month, both on the Hwy, and peak hour, bumper to bumper traffic, but, that's pretty much expected from basically a standard engine  Talking about no issues daily driving, it was 39° the other day and I was sitting in bumper to bumper traffic on the M5 and then M7, with the top down, and with the air conditioning blowing nice cold air on my feet, balls, and face, well, there was one issue, my head and arms got pretty sun burnt Note to self: leave a hat and sunscreen in the car for such days 🤣
    • I would agree, unless you need something specific to the HV motor/battery side repaired or investigated, any mechanic will be able to perform normal services, but if you prefer, maybe look for a mechanic who regularly services/repairs Nissans, the VQ engines are pretty common in the Nissan lineup.  Sorry, I can't make any suggestions, I don't live in Vic.
    • Some of them keep working fine. 9 out of 10 of them end up causing an absolute misery bleeding the system and get thrown on the workshop floor in a tantrum and never thought about again because they were never really needed and just added crap to the car that we could have done without. Same-same with HICAS, A-LSD, and various other stupidities that over eager 10x engineers thought we had to have.
