pfunk Posted August 11, 2012 Share Posted August 11, 2012 (edited) I love how the lift gate doubles as a rear deck spoiler... Even the box is welded to the cab, definitely nothing stock about it. Im sure you could get a lot of cash with that truck Edited August 11, 2012 by pfunk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shadow Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 It's a real shame Pikes Peak is now paved.

myk Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 Anyone here still remember the Suzuki Samurai? It's still being sold worldwide under its original Japanese name. I remember numerous trips to the desert with a friend and his family in one of those things in junior high. Their version had a soft top and they'd always have it off/down when we headed out. By the time we got to our destinations we were always covered in dirt, dust and we looked like homeless people; people would regard us accordingly. Anyway, "samurai," what a dumb name for a vehicle... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derex3592 Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 went to Hobby Lobby last night and saw this,,,,,,$400,000+ Rolls Royce Phantom, My first thought was...OMG.it's the size of a house trailer! Seriously,,,it's like someone put a normal car in a copier and enlarged it by 15%, My second thought was....don't these "people" have lesser "people" to do their shopping for them, and lastly I thought....haven't they been told, there's an economic crisis going on in this country!

Maybe some people like to "keep things real." I know that if I had money I would have no problem driving to Wal*Mart, Hooters, work or even a 7/11 with my Ferrari or a (insert name of insanely priced vehicle here). I mean why not? A car is a car and it should be driven. Lastly, let's not get political, yeah? Besides, driving a $400,000 car is no more ridiculous than buying a $200 (or whatever 'Valks cost these days) piece of plastic that turns into a jet, a robot, and a hybrid version of the two...

David Hingtgen Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 I've always dreamed of owning a Countach (or now, Aventador), driving it on the highway during summer and getting it covered with bugs, and then parking it in a small, old, rural Wal-Mart's parking lot and taking pics.

reddsun1 Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 It's funny how even if you don't speak the language, you can still pretty much extrapolate what's [probably] being said... 0:15 - "...alright, bud--get yo' ass up out the street, you're not hurt.

Agent ONE Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 I'm with Reddsun. The Caddy is not good looking. Not horrible, but certainly not good looking, and NOT the base for a supercar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Hingtgen Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 Re: the car apartment. If you could actually drive into your living room---that'd be cool. But a 5-10 minute sequence to have it delivered near your living room behind glass? Seems a massive time-waste. Just think about bringing in groceries or luggage or something. (of course, if you're that rich, you don't need to haul your own groceries or luggage) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phyrox Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 I know a guy whose long driveway has a spur that he can drive down into an auxiliary garage with a car-sized turntable. The rest of the room is a den with a large plasma, full bar and a few chairs. The kicker is, the ceiling is glass and is actually the floor for his living room. Best garage ever.

Now if you had that set up but you road in the car up the elevator into a glass penthouse garage that opened into your apartment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jenius Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 I am cool with how the normal CTS-V sedan looks, it's pretty manly. That Hennessy coupe though is is too manly... like a huge female body builder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reddsun1 Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 (edited) Hehe, like a giant, upscaled multi-disc CD changer concept. But definitely suited to single, nouveau riche lifestyle and tastes, I'd say. Sure as hell would put a strain on a married man. How about: now if he thought he got nagged for not leaving his shoes at the door on a rainy day before... "Oh, no you didn't bring that thang up in here, tracking up my carpets!"

I think ol' George LeBay (Christine) put it better'n just about anybody: George LeBay: Her name's Christine. Arnie Cunningham: I like that. Dennis Guilder: Come on Arnie, we gotta get goin', huh? George LeBay: My a-hole brother bought her back in September '57. That's when you got your new model year, in September. Brand-new, she was. She had the smell of a brand-new car. That's just about the finest smell in the world, 'cept maybe for pussy. Edited September 12, 2012 by reddsun1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
