Definitely the coolest Icelandmobile I saw while over there last week




For size comparison, I believe that's a 2006-2010 Ford Explorer next to it

Little -too- sideways :v: Seriously though, the S2000 is probably one of the more unforgiving cars I've driven once you find yourself a little too far. Kinda like the Z4M. :lol: I think that's the only car I've ever 'tankslappered' hard in.


Everyone was taking that corner way too fast. There were 5 S2000s racing that day, and all but one of them spun out around that corner. All the FWD cars went through on 3 wheels:

I think Sidney, BC is where AI goes to retire. The town is overflowing with wealthy people in their 60s/70s and if you go out for even 10 minutes you're sure to see some kick-rear end automotive poo poo

saw this Citroen DS last night

I saw it park under it's own power and the place it parked in front of was not an auto repair shop.

I can vouch for this - I grew up in that town. Haha. Now, I live in the antithesis of that - Edmonton, AB, where you're either driving a bro truck, or wishing you owned a bro truck but haven't landed that sweet job in the oil patch yet. :ughh:

Remember when that Edo Competition Ferrari Enzo crashed at the Targa Newfoundland a couple years ago?

It's been rebuilt, has apparently over 900HP now - I saw it today, and it's the goddamn meanest sounding mother loving car I have ever heard.

Look up some info on Yank Tanks, there used to be a fascinating documentary on Netflix about this solely Cuban phenomenon. Basically there are a lot of pre-embargo cars down there and a whole culture devoted to keeping them running with no access to parts.

I saw this earlier today when I was walking at the lake (sorry for the bad image quality, my phone is an archaic piece of crap):





The owner said it was a 1960 model. I'd say it belongs in this thread just on the virtue it was still moving under its own power.

Am I wrong for saying that I like the looks of the Lagonda? I know it's a complete piece of poo poo underneath but the exterior has an odd appeal, as if Volvo and Ferrari in the 80s got together to make a car.

It's a TVR turned up to 11 (almost a 1000 HP with zero aids etc) - check out this vid (good stuff starts at about a minute in) - it looks like it is brutalizing the driver, and that engine sound :allears:

I think I might be the only person that actually likes the look of the California. It doesn't really seem likes its trying too hard, which I think most of the other "modern" Ferraris are doing.

I like it too, though I think it really should have been a coupe, not a convertible, It looks so much better with it's top up.


The 355 Spyder is fantastic, but I can't look at one without thinking of this:
