I hear ya closet but man all that F! history in that company and now designing street cars. I can only imagine drivin one. But I am a sucker for a fine Italian automobile as well


Absolutely.......My advise buy a new used...You really can pick up some of these vehicles for a lot less...I have to tell you the last crazy car I drove was the GtR....those japanese made a monster....not much style but an absolutely rediculous performing car with daily driveability....

1 word COUNTACH..always a fav of mine the 80's..old diablos were nuts too



sumptank_003.jpg


This Diablo,was just sold, last week, a guy from Colorado, flew in on his private jet to check it out (shipped it home)...But problem with these supercars, is that they will cost you an extra $10-12000 a year (average) just in maintenance...even though you'll probably drive it less than 5000 miles a year. Even a new Ferrari, will end up costing you a few thousand $, when you bring it in for an oil change!


The 2nd happiest day of your life is the day you buy it :) ....
the happiest, is the day you sell it!

ABSO-f__in-LUTELY!

LMAO!! Well I am a city civil servant so the closest I'll ever get to owning a lambo or ferrari is to pull up to an exotic dealer in an expensive suit in a rented older model to play the part, get to sit in one and leave before I say a word-once they hear my dialect they'll know the jig is up and will then proceed to call security to "escort" me out, and the detailing crew to wash the poor man coodies off the seat and wheel lol.

Let me tell you a story...a 'few' years ago, I was at the Ferrari store in Greenwich, picking up a car, the sales manager had to go somewhere, and asked me to stay in case anyone came in, (there's not a lot of traffic in a Ferrari store), so anyway 2 guys come in, old clothes, speaking spanish, (not that there's anything wrong with that...my girl is Mexican) and ask to see the manager. So I go into the bosses office and tell him to come out, he says to me, 'what do they want?'...I say "who knows, probably looking for a job"...so he goes out, looks at them, looks at me, and says..."Alfie, have you met Bobby Bonilla from the METS?" OPPPS...nice guy, got his autograph for my kids!

Moral of the story...NEVER JUDGE A BOOK, BY IT"S COVER! :)

Damn Al you had my dream car lol I loved that since I was like..I dunno..BORN lol What year? Miles? How much you sell it for?

Yea the maintenance is def alot but it's worth it when you drive around causing people to become handicapped. Just breakin necks left and right. I was in Staten Island last night at 7-11 talking to this dude who just finished building his 85 vette and he was taking it out for a spin, we're standing there BS'ing. Then this guy cruisin around in a "lambo" pulls into the lot. I was like look at this it's def a kit..so obvious it wasn't even a good replica at all, the wheels, the shape everything. I was thinkin maybe a Fiero since that's the standard knockoff lambo but I don't know what it was for sure prob something even crappier than that. The dude I was talking to goes and asks him "Is that real or a kit?" The guy goes "A little of both" lol You shoulda seen this guy..definition of a douchebag..prob mid 30's ,wind tunnel tested hairdoo, polo shirt collar popped,knockoff rolex.. baically trying to act like he's mad rich lol. I got a good laugh out of it though. Like in all seriousness if you are going to spend all that money to make a replica you might as well just buy a used REAL one.

Another sick car that not alot of people know about is the 100th year anniversary Cadillac Cien..not sure if it was a limited production or just a concept. I saw it at Javitz several years back and never got it out of my head lol. The only other time I saw 1 was in a Cam'ron video.."oh boy" maybe? not sure. Gorgeous car though butterfly doors with no handles only remote entry.
