I'm a news photographer, basically we have a gas pump in our back parking lot. I have a key that turns the lock that let's me get free gas! Only photogs have this power! They also pay for my cell phone and all my vehicle maintanance. Not to toot my own horn or anything, but 'beep beep.'

Yeah, so is the Bugatti Veyron and the Koenigsegg CCX that I posted earlier - but I like the KTM for two reasons... one, it only weighs 700 kilos, which is only about three times as much as my bike (with a dry tank) and two - it is made by a bike company.

They are gorgeous bikes.

I have Kawasaki Ninja, a GPZ 900 - she is 17 years old, but still in absolutely mint condition. I love her to bits, and I'd never trade her in - but sometimes I really wish I had the money to buy a newer superbike...

Vector TT and Ultima. Heard of them

I have never had a favorite in anything really...but to just name a few..
aston martin, some of the seat range, BMW, mazda 6, one out of the peugeout range etc.

Originally posted by guy222

Yeah, but on the other hand: There are quite a few cars faster than the Lambo...

And while I think the Lambo i pretty in the same way that a rocket ship is pretty - it's not something I want to go buying my groceries in. I think that is why I prefer Porsche to Ferrari as well - a Porsche, I feel, is something you can go to work in during the week, buy your groceries on the way back - and then on weekends, you can let your hair down and go flying down a twisty road, or take the top off and let all the pretty girls glance at you as you drive by...

The Ferraris and the Lambos are just too specialised, in my opinion. They are too low, too impractical - you cannot go to work in them every day, pick the kids up, buy the groceries, take the dog to the vet - as a third or fourth car - definitely. As a gift, definitely. To go out on a Sunday on the open road - definitely.

But my ideal car must perform well, look good AND be practical - I want it to be something I can use as my main form of transport - I want it to be something I literally want to live in and never get out of.

That is why I like the Aston Martin or for something less expensive, the Audi - bot of which I posted earlier.

And if you want to talk about speed - I still favour the Bugatti Veyron, which I also posted earlier. Is it just me or does it look exactly like the BATMOBILE is supposed to look?

The Vector has an interesting history, I'll give you that. A bit like the Lambo - lots of ups and downs. Even looks a bit like a Lambo!

Gerald is making another supercar. If it works, he may have a say at the speed record

man, great cars, all of them. How can the f40 beat f50, and how come the ultima gtr is so cheap

This is why the Ultima is so cheap - you build it yourself!

"The Ultima is not a kit car; it may be delivered to the customer in component form but there is a world of difference between this car and the majority of its competitors.

More accurately, the Ultima is a professionally designed sports car that benefits from the modern advances in mid engined technology but which embodies a sophisticated basic lay out that allows it to be offered in easily assembled component packages.

More important, it can be built using all new compatible components to deliver the highest standards of performance and safety."

It was just clocked at 216 mph. Veyron has more horsepower. Add twin turbos to a LP640, guess who's faster. A Porsche by 9FF is goin for the speed record
