Also, I'm loving this Renault Espace F1, most beautiful MPV [inlove]

:gar I am really in love with cars. It's a part of my Gawker blog sites I visit that tells me about my likes.
Just to sip things here, I am in love with the Lexus LFA.

I hope to see one in the future!

I say Shelby SuperCars still has a chance.

Because no matter how fast it is, sooner or later, something is gonna come along that's even faster...

The Audi LeMans Quattro was the Audi R8, but in the concept stage. The Audi R8 is the production model. The LeMans Quattro is a concept car.

Indeed. Before the McLaren F1 came around, that car was the fastest production car in the world.

...and yes Mishima, we know Pennzoil. Hell, in the United States, we can't forget it because Pennzoil still sells oil here.

Given the fact that this thread hasn't been touched since August, I'm going to bump this thread in light of the new Corvette that was revealed on Sunday.

Image

Looks pretty nice, huh? Cranks out 450 horsepower, and that's just the base model too.

Why?

Here is your answer sir ---> Corvette vs Viper
