    Post Your Favourite Car

    My car of the moment would have to be the mercedes convertable. Although I must admit my choice changes often as i see nice cars on the road while driving around in my 7 seat ancient 4wd.



    isnt it beautiful

    Whats your favourite car of the moment. If you had unlimited budget what car would you drive?

    I must admit I saw a cute little prototype jap car on TV last night. a concept car which the cab spins 360 degrees so it goes forward and backwards and turns on itself. No reversing. I'll try and find a picture of it to post here. Had fascinating specs.

    Oh so many many to choose from, I just can't stick to one!

    There's the Carrera GT:



    Lamborghini Murcielago



    Lamborghini Gallardo



    Mercedes CLS



    Ferrari Enzo




    Aston Martn DB9



    Just too many new supercars and all as unaffordable as the next!

    favorite car

    McClaren Gt if cost is no object. Corvette ZO6 in a sort of affordable range. Utility Vehicle would be International 4200 Crew Cab pickup with Dt466 diesel and Allison transmission. By the way, this a pickup with a 2.5 ton rating! International still gives a lot of bang for the buck!

    That's it.. isnt it so cute.



    The Pivo concept car examines the potential of future electric vehicles. The Pivo's most distinctive feature is its cabin that revolves 360 degrees, eliminating the need to reverse. A compact body also makes the car exceptionally easy to maneuver. Excellent visibility is enhanced by Nissan’s Around View technology, which helps reduce dangerous blind spots. The navigation and audio systems are simple to operate while driving. These features are supported by Nissan’s innovative environment-friendly technologies such as the Compact Lithium-ion Battery. Pivo promises to turn dreams into reality.

    The segment had me in stitches when he kept asking the jap dude if he could drive it.....
