My bosses bought a DB9 not long ago. After two months of having it they had to take it back because the paintwork started peeling really badly and the chassis started to rust. They don't use oil-based paint on new cars anymore I don't think.Jobz post=18.73467.798355 said:Current car: White 2001 Toyota Echo. Tiny ass little car with awesome fucking gas mileage. 41 mpg. And it's not a hybrid. Regular gas.
Dream Car: Aston Martin DB9 Coupe, manual transmission with black leather interior and a dark gray exterior. They run at about $100,000. So I won't be getting one of those anytime soon (If at all)
and now that i have seen this... WANTAnton P. Nym post=18.73467.796768 said:Dream car: A Tesla Roadster [http://www.teslamotors.com/]. I read about it in Wired last year, and saw one in action on, of all places, Xbox Live's "Major's Minute". Sweet, sweet ride, 0-60mph in 3.9s, looks hot enough to melt the pavement while standing still, and it's 100% electric. (And, alas, $100,000... so it's going to remain a dream, I think.)

The TVR Speed 12 is a very sexy car, but I'd be afraid to sit behind that kinda power. That thing goes too fast...RAKtheUndead post=18.73467.797435 said:I've always been more of a "add lightness" sort of car enthusiast myself, but if you can add lightness with a huge displacement (see AC Cobra 427, TVR Speed 12), then we're talking!Darth Mobius post=18.73467.797203 said:I have personally reaffirmed my belief that there is no replacement for displacement.
