The SSC Ultimate Aero can take the slalom nicely. It also tops the Bugatti's top speed, but it ain't a comfy nor stable ride there unlike the Bugatti which does it with ease.


nooo nonono.. the newer Bugatti Veyron topped out faster than the SSC Ultimate Aero. The Bugatti Veyron SS (super sport) is limited to 258mph, the SSC Ultimate Aero only goes 257.11mph. They had the limit the Bugatti SS because its top speed was tested at 268.81mph, yet they limited it to 258mph so they could prove it was faster then the Areo.

I heard they might come out with a new Areo some time. The only thing is... the Areo is made for going fast, all the Bugattis are made to be luxury vehicles and handle beyond belief. With the Bugatti topping out at a little over 2 tons with almost the same hp as the Aero is while the Aero weighs more than a half ton less, the Bugatti is still faster, who do you think has done more homework?

Sure I like American muscle (SSC is part of Shelby I think).. but then it comes to German engineering I'm crazy about that too.
 





just picked up a 90 toyota cressida from a 86 year old grandma , 24v inline 6 with rear wheel drive and a limited slip :)

since i dont have a garage i will have to wait in till next spring before i can really do any thing serious to it so over the winter i will research what i can do to it and how

do to medical reasons i will be keeping it automatic and im not going to go too heavy on the mods. i plan to start with the suspensions and brakes first before i do any engine mods, the 1jz and 2jz swaps look pretty promising but honestly a 1uz v8 would be perfect for me, but we shall see how that goes


i used to race in autocross,road racing,amateur rally and ice race in my old cars back in the day.(323gtx,impulse rs turbo etc) my heart is still there but due to my accident at work my body cant do it any more. i do what i can to support all types of racing

Renault Sandero, stock stereo was stolen 1 month after purchase, left and right windows were broken (left to steal the stereo... the right one was broken because some idiot must have thought I still had a stereo to be stolen... so yeah, they actually broke the window to steal nothing) :p

Oh and last month one bus hit my right mirror after cornering me. It was either let him hit the mirror or kill some people and hit a car.
 
I've got two running cars at the moment, an 88 4x4 S-10 Blazer and a 2007 Pontiac G5. (For some reason I decided to use that as my username :D)

Here's the S10, I've got big plans for it. I'll be shoving a 5.3L LSX V8 in there with the AWD setup from the Scylone/Typhoon/Bravada.

I Just got my License back not too long ago after loosing it for a year. I put the G5 in storage and it's probably going to stay there till winter's over. I really don't have too many up to date pictures of the G5 for some reason. I found a wrecked SS Cobalt and swapped over the entire ground effects kit from the Cobalt to the G5. All sorts of cutting and grinding fun! Plus the paint was a PITA since the G5 has a tint coat from the factory...

Here's the newest pic I can find. This was as I was trying to fix the damage from the "incident" where I lost my license. The door was toast, and the rocker was caved in pretty bad. A new door and stud welder/puller fixed all that damage...

Then I've got two other projects, a 1985 chevy CK pickup that my mom wrecked when I was about 8. It's sat in my Grandma's garage since. The block cracked and the frame was pretty bent up but I've got the engine out and the frame straightened. I'm still looking for a nice 350 to replace the stock 305, but after that it's going to stay stock. This Truck has some sentimental value behind it...

Then there's the El Camino project. I've got a 78 El Camino SS 350 with 4 on the floor :cool: Unfortunately it burned at some point and the weather has got it since then. Luckily I found a completely rust free body so at some point in time I'll restore that thing to the way it was from the factory. They didn't make too many 4 speed El Camino's, and they made even less with a 350 (In fact, the last year for the 350 was 79. In 80 they went to the 305.) It will be a cool little truck when it's done...

You can somewhat see the truck and Camino bodies in these pics. The stack of parts is a front clip for a S10 to replace the rusted mess on mine. The cracked 305 is in the back there too...

As you can see from my garage, I spend a lot of time working on cars and other things that go!

2011 scion xb m/t
I'm 17, so it works. I really never thought I would ever like the xb until I sat in one. I have a lot of lighting modifications that I might post later.
 
Here's mine: 2006 Corvette, manual tranny, Pioneer 4200DVD receiver (the stock CD player stopped reading CDs so I had an excuse to replace it).

My favorite (so far) - beautiful :bowdown:


Here's mine: 2006 'vette...
Very nice ride, would love one too, thank you very much.

Here's mine, a '95 GT. Wouldn't turn a single head in the States but in Vienna it certainly gets it's share. Very ironic when cruising next to Porsche 911s and Audi S8s that are roughly 5x the price of my ragtop, but those cars are "routine" in this part of the World... :p

p.s. No, that's not Vienna, it's Key Biscayne and downtown Miami in the background... (as seen in 1995) :beer:

Your check engine light is on...

Those dang Toyotas turn that light on for the tiniest little thing it seems.
 
The car's not running, CEL's are always on with the key in run when the engine is not running.

It's called the engine wasn't running.

Yes, there is a rubber duck in the windshield.... (inside joke). The first pic is 14.1mp and the 2nd is 4mp. It's a 1995 Cadillac STS Seville. Full leather interior, Bose sound system (stock), heated (front only) seats. It was wrecked while my mom had it so we took the money from the insurance company and bought her a newer cadillac and my dad said he could fix this one. So we replaced the hood and we still have to put in the grill and repaint the hood. I also need to replace the power antenna. But it has a 4.6L V8 with 300 hp and 300ft-lb of torque. I have a pair of cheap Cherry Bomb mufflers from Meijer on it. It also has a sport cold air intake.
YouTube - My 1995 Cadillac Seville Exhaust
The video isn't completely accurate because I recorded the video with a little point-and-shoot camera but it's close enough. I will try to record a better video to post soon.
I get about 12-15 mpg normally and like 23-25 with cruise control set between 70-85 mph.
0-60 stock is 6.0 seconds. Top speed 150. It has around 180k miles on it.
