Jean Todt 4 Report post Posted November 16, 2008 Chris, did you have the one of the female tennis player scratching her arse? Or maybe a kitten in a boot from Athena?For me, this is Salma Hayek on wheels. I had to be dragged kicking and screaming away from this works Jag' E'Type lightweight at Goodwood this year. I want it so bad. Oh, and yes, I like my bikes but my first love will always be cars. Glad to know that Sir! I will post my favourite cars one by one. My all time beauty has to be my first car, Hindustan Motors Contessa! Its actually a Vauxhall Victor! But mine was white. That was my first car and I was only 14! , My dad threw me the keys because many of his friend's childeren who were riding bikes and scooters were being killed by truck and bus drivers, so he wanted me to stop thinking of bikes, but it later turned out that he had to be sell the car before I ran over few old men reading news papers in the middle of the road! The sight of watching another guy driving away the car you loved washing everyday is a real sad one and I had one. I heard that the b#####d crashed the car on a tree (luckly nothing happend) after something (I don't know) in the powersteering failed! , but my did give me the money to fix it one week before he sold it, but I spent it anyways!

Jean Todt 4 Report post Posted November 16, 2008 Of all the many beautiful and/or classic designs out there, I'm going to be selfish and say the Chevron B16. Emotive for me because it's where I worked as a 16 yr old apprentice, but of all the cars we made, this was sex on wheels.... Sad that they don't make cars with much curves these days.

mikathegreat2 2 Report post Posted November 16, 2008 Interesting Mika, because you prove that guys at your generation grow up watching cars of today. I personally don't like the Phantom, Furai was a stunning concept, but I pity that they couldnt produce the spoiler that they intended to make on the real prototype! Mazda 6 is a beauty, F50! NO NO for me! LP 560 Is the current most beautiful super car! That is the pic of me inbetween to Lps! Did ya see 1 in matte black?? Ultimate skunk works Reventon, which I forgot to put in that list! The Mazda 6 is sexy for a boring 4 door everyday saloon! I used to dream about the F50 when I was a 5 year old! Used to have a book full of supercars, like Diablos, Vette Stingrays, E-Type Jags etc. Wonder where it dissapeared, in the bin probs, unfortunately! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Burro 0 Report post Posted November 16, 2008 , everything has a begning Eric! The car which I drove first was a Triumph Herald. actually, my driver just let me steer it! You know I couldnt reach the pedals. From then I kept jumping at every chance I got. I wonder what George must be doing. Oh, ponies are better than mules! First car I pretended to drive was my mom's 1980-something Honda Accord. Had I not been born, she still would've had the 1981 Camaro First car I actually drove was either my dad's 1998 Mazda 626 or my mom's god awful 1993 Plymouth Voyager. Nice one guys! Remember, incase another car springs into your mind please post the pics or names. Since you asked: My previous car Mazdaspeed3 Porsche Cayman Dodge Viper Focus ST Mercedes SL63 AMG Lexus IS-F Toyota Corolla? Geo Prizm. Which was actually a Toyota Corolla.

Schumikonen 2 Report post Posted November 16, 2008 Toyota Corolla? No, that is a Geo Prizm 1993, it's basically a Corolla, I like it because is my first and only car. But seriously speaking the car that IMO is the most beautiful is Porsche 962, I saw one of thoses in Miami Vice, they were chasing it with their Ferrari, how can I forget that, here is a pic for you Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was pretending to drive too when I was holding the steering! I love the cayman, to me its the most well proptioned Porsche ever. The Cayman S in white is a beauty. It is widely belived that it could blow the 911 away if it had a more powerful engine, anyways, I would buy a Cayman even if I had the money to buy a 911 turbo. Why? Because Cayman looks more beautiful. Just wish it a good name. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Why? Because Cayman looks more beautiful. Just wish it a good name. Yeah. I guess the first car I drove was a go-kart though, I first raced at age 9. What a fine stock car champion I would've been It's funny though that I've never owned a ride-on lawnmower and never will. Those are for pussies, push mowers all the way! (Not like I own one of those, hard to mow the parking lot that is my yard...) My favorite thing about the Cayman is the base model gets 29 mpg. On premium, but that's still good for that kind of car. Not like people look at that when buying a $40,000 car. YHR has a Cayman, I believe, and that makes me jealous. And I agree, I hate the 911s. They've got this gaudy boyracer crap all over them aimed for 12 years olds who CAN'T BUY CARS. Nasty wings and spoilers and bodykits. Grr. The Cayman, on the other hand, is simple, clean, and elegant. I remember people importing those right hand driven (Diesel powered) ones to India, they used to be a poor man's Benz and I belive they are more reliable. The Geo Prizm is not a bad car at all for that kind of thing. It's small, reliable, inexpensive. But it certainly says a lot about the US auto industry: GM's answer to the Toyota Corolla's success: building a Toyota Corolla and rebranding it. Ouch. (Which somehow reminds me of rural Pennsylvania...a strange place for sure. We saw a billboard advertisement there for the new 1989 Geo Prizm available at such and such a dealer...the problem was this ad was still up in 2008). I cant belive people ignored this beauty! And some morons can even do this to that car, sad people! Buy the car. Make no modifications but oil changes. End of story. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As I told you earlier, I have never been lucky to have had any sort of racing other than a couple of go cart (when I was 14) or cheap street bike racing! , My dad would have gone to jail if he found out though! Yeah, and Porsche's spares are even cheaper compared to many midsized saloons. I agree with you, Cayman is beautiful and elegant. 911s here are all over! Heard Audi might be developing a car based on next Cayman's/Boxter platform! http://www.worldcarfans.com/9081112.033/au...face-once-again This means, Audi may be looking at a very clever route of developing really REAR wheel drive sports cars with the engine mid mounted. I don't really know if that is to save the costs of developing a car with its engine on front with rear wheel drive configuration. , anyone correct me if I am wrong, but everyone wants to save money nowadays! I can't belive GM really did that! and the ads are still there? Are you serious? CLS is currently the most beautiful thing with four doors! I will have one in Black, or white or maroon!
