Don't lump me in with them. I'm an enthusiast of mechanic design, be it engines, weaponry, or productive machinery. Not a guy with a wrench that reads the marketing garbage AFE/insert other "enthusiast" brand that can't legally warranty half of their products.

 

I fail to see a correlation between people screeching variations of "forced induction is more efficient!!! Reclaimed energy!!!" and anything I've said.

If you can't be civil. Please leave

 

Edit. That goes for everyone in the thread

You're in for a treat! We saw one earlier this year at a Malibu meet. Absolute work of art!

Definitely worth the effort if you ever get the chance to in the area - the craftsmanship on these things is unbelievable (theres a private Zonda R thats a 2 hour drive from me, that I might try to go see). PFAFF usually brings theirs out to autoshows (this year it replaced the P1) and last year they brought it out to the Canadian F1 GP (this year, they chose instead to bring a 570S)

I still think the E39 is better simply because it's a less advanced car. Less technology to take away the driving pleasure of a BMW M5.

I really want that FT-1 to really go into production. That is such a damn nice car.

*SNIP*

 

I'm pretty sure all of the Huayras are full carbon cars.

 

Not that there are a lot of them anyway.

Full carbon as in unpainted - all of the carbon bodywork is left otherwise naked apart from a deep coat of clear.

This Saturday there will be one along with a p1 and a 918 at the treasure island cars and coffee. Going to be utterly insane to see all of these cars in one place. There is a chance of a silver huayra showing up too along with the all carbon one that has already been confirmed.

Or the One:1, or the LaFerrari, or the NSX.

lol, i do it so much in my car. First time round it isnt hot at all, so i put it back in to warm up, think its not working and touch it, only to found out its actually working now.

11/10 thats basically all my electronics. Turn my high beams on, goto dip my lights for an oncoming car and all my fuckin lights turn off.

Beneath this mask there is more than flesh. Beneath this mask there is an idea, Mr. Creedy, and ideas are bulletproof.

As I get older I get angrier more cynical, meaner. I feel some warning posts coming. I feel a ban coming. I was warned.
