Like we talked about, I think the Escort hood would be the only one worth considering. That or picking up an OEM one and having it custom cut; but that's going to be pricey and time consuming. Why are you even thinking about this now - you should be buying your damn suspension parts right now. Today. EDIT: Found a picture that might stir some thoughts; not a fan of the hood pins though. This hood is JUN by the way. http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f213/emxracer/VP__4380.jpg http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f213/emxracer/VP__2783.jpg

Love the 4DSC sticker. :thumbup:

Can't say I've ever seen a new Si supercharged; cool. :thumbup:

It's nice to know that I'm not the only one who thinks this way. That or I get excited because I can use these on other forums where they have never seen the light of day.

Clean VW - good color too.

This thread just screams awesome.

Yeah, that is awesome - T&A can sell almost anything. Wait no, absolutely anything.

I fail at timing - discussion is here: http://www.columbusracing.com/forums/showthread.php?t=61133

LOL, you beat me by 4 min to this link. I love the idea - and better yet, the practical application to other vehicles.

http://cache.gawker.com/assets/images/jalopnik/2009/01/SSCEV_title.jpg Provided the cost reaches a normal point where everyday commuter vehicles can benefit, I think this technology is pretty awesome. I'm all for supercars that run on this technology and are fast as hell, but since I will probably never be in the market to own one... I'm more excited about how it might impact my daily commute instead. Although a 1,200 hp electric supercar isn't too bad either. Thoughts? "Light weight. Just a fraction of the weight of a standard combustion engine (<200lbs.) • Extended performance. Internal cooling systems are built into the motors. • Compact size. 1/18 the space of a standard engine; significant increase in cargo room. • Scalable horsepower. From 200 horsepower (one motor) to 1200 horsepower (two motors "piggy backed"). • Quick recharges. Only 10 minutes on standard 110 outlet" http://jalopnik.com/5136538/ultimate-aero-ev-ssc-plans-to-build-worlds-fastest-electric-production-car?skyline=true&s=i

Oh yeah, everything is - but I'd still be content with running slow 12's.

LOL.

Nah, not all - and besides, fast is a relative term.

Hi. Pics of the GTI?

Agreed with many here - the mystery is half the fun. If I was lucky enough to have that job, I would NEVER reveal the truth to people if that would compromise it.

Cars, especially fast ones, are meant to be driven. A lot. Nice car though.

It seems no make or model is safe from stupid people. That's hideous.

Throttle feathering helps.... and so does AWD.

That garage shot is real. We have so many photos from that day/evening it's ridiculous; it was a fun day. There were also four additional Z's inside the garage on lifts and the ground. http://www.flux21.com/UPLOAD/garage.jpg (Hi Theo) :thumbup:

Impressive... never looked into these cars. I had no idea they had that kind of potential.

Double Post.

I have to agree. In fact, that clip inspired me to go download Cannonball Run II right now. I remember sitting in a Countach for the first time when I was 10. That was the peak of my obsession, and definitely a memorable day. The first and the third both are entertaining; simple car porn and you can laugh at the ridiculousness all the way through. Good times. Although the second one was so horrible I wanted to gouge my eyes out - that aside, I don't remember there being many memorable car moments in that one.

Besides the already mentioned Gone in 60 Seconds (and credit to the original and its amazing number of crashes) and Bullitt, I'd say: Death Race 2000 (1975) Christine Vanishing Point Movies with great car scenes (aka honorable mentions), despite not being about cars: The Bourne Identity The Blues Brothers Ronin The Italian Job (original) The French Connection Word. :thumbup:
