Haven't seen a 5.0 in this nice shape in the longest time. Early 20's girl driving this one.

In reply to Slippery (Forum Supporter) : Is the passenger side mirror usable that low?

No, not on the passenger side. Driver side yes. The car is so small easy to see over there. I guess it's a Fonzy mirror. Doesn't do much but looks good.

I forgot to post these a few weeks ago, Spotted at Road Atlanta

Ferrari 308 based Race Car apparently built for an IMSA series that never took off. Sounded amazing going down the front straight.

Equally impressive sounding and much more of a crowd draw. 1959? Ferrari 250 re-body as 1962 250 GTO, long story on this but short version was build in 1990 ish using a real period Ferrari with Italian parts into a GTO homage and used as a track car. Purists are divided on this one but damn-it was being used as it was intended and looked/sounded amazing.

Wow, that's about what I figured considering it was really well executed. Thanks for the full story. I forgot to take a picture of the presentation boards he had at his pit documenting the cars history .

Plate of shrimp.

Just got a call from my garage landlord, something about a deceased owner of a 280Z that has been sitting in a garage for 20 years, and options for selling it for the heirs.

From the looks of the rear bumper cover and the wing, I think that's a Saleen, making it an even bigger unicorn.

Definitely a Saleen style body kit... those were pretty widely available aftermarket, though for it to survive this long is definitely unicorn worthy.

How has the 328d been to own?  It's on the list for a possible Prius replacement for us.

Thought that was an unofficial "25th Anniversary" Mustang... often called the '7-Up' Mustang at first, but it doesn't have the white interior or top...
