Ok i know its not a super car but its special, and the fact that i am sure they still dont sell it brand new until october I think.

But this morning i saw the new BMW M3 V8. in dark blue colour. I thought i was imagining, but it was it had the signature quad exhaust pipes, the power bulge on the bonnet, the funky M alloys and the M side vent thing what ever its called. I know its a real M3 is cuz 1) a middle age guy was driving it and 2) he turned into the BMW head office in mlugrave.

sorry no pics was in traffic :-(

I know Poite - sorry.

The Zonda is a true work of art. Absolutely amazing car - albeit a bit quiet down the straight.

Was an eventful day - it seems that walls hurt no matter how expensive or rare the car is.

Other exotics in attendance were... 996 GT2, 996 GT3 RS, 360 CS, 360 Challenge racecar, Elfin Streamliner, plenty of other Porkas and an old 355 Challenge.

We had the Atom, Exige and Evo out today - from all accounts the Atom causes a bit of brown underpants early on, but then as the excitement builds and confidence increases - your sphincter tightens and sucks the brown back up again. A true wonder of science!

:huh:

    • The real question is, on some of those wild roads they call highways, how many times did a farmer in an old ute from the early 2000s blaze past you over double lines?   Tassie is a wild and really cool place, and after doing a work related road trip there January of 24, I understand why Targa Tasmania is ran there, and is so tough to do well at! We had a brand new Camry Hybrid that handled quite nicely, and thankfully weren't in an old car, because cresting some of those hills in a 100kmh zone for it to suddenly be like "surprise f**kers, this is a recommended 30kmh hard right turn" wouldn't be pretty. We weren't racing the Camry around, but we weren't slouching in the bends either. But my lord those old farmers know their old clapped out utes, and those roads, as they were absolutely hammering it!   You're also super lucky to make it up to Mt Wellingtong this time of year. It's often road closed with snow/ice! Also, I hope you hit up Salamander Road in Hobart for some insanely good food (I highly recommend the dimly lit Irish pub for a Guiness Pie, or even the bangers and mash!!!)   How long did the Ferry take to get across? I want to do a road trip of Tas on my own time, but I get horrifically sea sick, and I don't want me on the Ferry, just the car 😛
    • So far so good, about 30km on it so far and nothing out of sorts yet thankfully
    • Look at @Kinkstaah's thread on the issue.
    • Hmm not really, I'd say its race car life or modified car life when you make 3 or 4 times the power Nissan designed the car for lol. 
    • I'll let others with more breakage chime in, but I can't think of anyone who had a problem with the standard centre plate before they had a problem with the standard gears - the plate generally just gets replaced for safety when the gearset is upgraded. As for the gearsets, its not like they are OK at 600Nm and break at 601. Their longevity is a combination of how much torque you are making and how gentle you are on shifts (or not).
