That's kinda ugly actually.

I like the new design but it just doesn't work being a sedan.

For example, the coupe works:

How do you guys find the SRT8 ugly? I think it's beautiful!

 

[BoBoBREWSKI]

I

Kinda looks like the Acura NSX from this angle.

 

[THE HCP]

I agree, but it has an angry look to it which is cool!

So do I!

Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

Wow, that's the best Lambo I've ever seen.

I just wish the Gallardo were a little bit longer. Length wise, it's in the vicinity of a go-cart.

 

[BoBoBREWSKI]

^^ It's not too short IMO. My buddy used to have one and it was close to as long as a normal sedan. A Lotus Elise is more in the vicinity of a go-cart. One reason I dont really like the Murcielago is I think its too long... looks weird.

I agree on the Aventador. It's now my favorite Lambo and one of my favorite cars overall.

 

[Colonel Ronan]

I love the A4:

 

[BoBoBREWSKI]

^^ Holy shit... that's bad ass! Where can I find more pics of it?

Hubba hubba. Me like.

I once tried to buy an original 1933 Barrel Back project - but the owner did not deem me worthy (Morgan owners are a fanatic bunch - and I did not have the required Morgan experience in his opinion to entrust me with the car's restoration)

 

[THE HCP]

I love the A4:

That's gotta be an R4 right?

 

[maxiep]

I wish they still made the Allroad for the States. I talked to the guys at Sunset a couple of years ago to see if I could buy one and have it modified for California emissions. The cost to do so was astronomical.

When I bought my A6 last year it cam down to the one I bought and an All-Road. I love those.

A buddy of mine who works in Germany owns one of the new Allroads. He owned one of the old ones in the States and says it's night and day difference in terms of handling.

Nah, it's the 2011 A4.

My car:

Shitty mileage though. Gets about 16 miles to a gallon of coffee.

 

[BoBoBREWSKI]

This has become my new dream car.

 

[THE HCP]

I'll roll this.........

 

[BoBoBREWSKI]

Audi A3 Concept

At 14.5 feet long and weighing in at 3,392 pounds, the A3 remains compact. But Audi's turbocharged direct-injection 2.5-liter five-cylinder gives it 408 horsepower, with a 0 to 62 mph time of 4.1 seconds. Even with that kind of power, fuel economy is rated at 26 mpg.

 

[andalusian]

I hate what is happening to cars. They all become so big and fat. What once used to be a 5-series BMW is now the size of a 3-series. What used to be a 3-series is now a 1-series. Same happens with Audi as well. It's a damn shame.

I personally like the bigger cars. Bigger looks classier to me. Compact cars are for high school girls IMO.
The only small car I've ever liked is the VW GTI's.

 

[andalusian]

Size has nothing to do with class, it is all the design.

Anyone that thinks that the monstrosity of the gigantic Bangle BMW is better than the compact and taut E30 is out of his mind, imho.

Big and classy?

or small and classier?

The big 7-series is just a mismatch of flame-surfacing and strange angles.

To be honest, it is easier to get nice proportions with bigger/longer cars - but with the current blobs that are required by pedestrian safety regulations in Europe - even large cars are often rather ugly. (Audi, to be honest, does a better job of design nowadays than most other companies).

Then the size of my cock makes me the classiest man in the world and I had a 1984 silver Rabbit GTI for 9 years! Loved that ride!

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

The RS5 is a monster (450 hp V8):

^^^ I want one of those!!!! A white one!

Agreed. I just want an MK1 GTI.

They are cute. But if you are going with wrong-wheel-drive, might as well get a Peugeot 205 GTI, imho (not that the Mk1 GTI are not nice, it's just that the little Pug took them a notch higher in execution). These were truly the dog's bollocks.

Meh, they're nice but I am just in love with GTIs for some reason. I got a 2002 right now.

Ford Fiesta, baby!
