      I saw a kei Honda Beat from the 90s parked next to my tundra and thought it’d fit nicely in the short bed….if only I had some ramps

        The AMG version of the Mercedes CLA EV sounds like it's going to be suitably bonkers.

              My bit of fun! A Caterham 620. Running 355bhp, weighs 600kg, 0-60 in 2.7seconds. But to be honest it’s all about the cornering speed!

                      Visited [Duke of London] to scope out for a potential shoot location. Unsurprisingly, they have some lovely motors. Part collection, part holding for customers who they sell them for

                        Spotted this Jeep truck parked in town this morning. Sparked memories of this town from 50 years ago!

                          At this weekend’s WRC stage in Encarnacion, Paraguay.
                          Spotted this Dodge Power Wagon while groceryshopping at the supermarket.
                          Not fully original but looks pretty enough to share.

                              No offense (well maybe a little) but Porsche, especially the more ostentatious/obnoxious versions, just screams midlife crisis. Possibly a post for unpopular opinions

                                I don’t necessarily disagree. I’ve had a handful of Porsches, some when I was younger and then a couple more when I got separated/divorced in my 40s, so I’m probably not helping the stereotype 😂. But I’ve always been a Porsche guy. My dad had one when I was growing up, along with some other sports cars, and I used to read Road & Track cover to cover every time it showed up in the mail back in the ’80s.

                                But to your point, I think you can say that about pretty much all of them. Corvette, Porsche, Ferrari, Lamborghini, whatever. You see some guy in his 40s, 50s or 60s in a loud sports car, especially a convertible, and “midlife crisis” is probably the first joke somebody makes. Sometimes the guy just finally has the money to buy the car he wanted when he was 16.

                                Edit: i’m not a fan of giant wings or spoilers. Although, you can’t beat a whale tail on a 930

                                  Looks like it’s got a manthay kit on it
                                  I look at the pic and wonder where the hell is the driver off to, it’s a track car

                                  Saw this little gem yesterday

                                    They were both in London, so wondering if the Porsche was driven over from Kuwait. With that wing I don't think any route would be a problem.

                                      Would the GT3 RS be part of the plethora of supercars shipped over from the Middle East just to be driven around central London in totally obnoxious manner?
