LOL, That's how I used to drive my M4 as well--is there any other way?!?

BTW, I sold my M4 for the Jag and really haven't looked back

This has been one of my favorite cars since it came out. The 350z are common and cheap, but the proportions are timeless.

Looks alright. I guess I'm too young to be nostalgic for 50 year old cars locked away in collectors garages.

IMO this is the best looking car on the road! Nothing beats phallic hoods

Man I hate the SLS, such an abomination, only saved by the ugliest car of all time.

Dad met me there to check it out, dubbed it the "Benzly" bc he thought its looked like the GT albeit we agree much prettier. Dealer didn't get the joke, we were laughing our asses off.

Not so, tons of Cobras out there and driven hard! Primarily because the FF kit is fully licensed. Very cool car, very cool kit, and VERY affordable for one hell of a machine.

I never really understood it until I saw one in person and sat in it. Blew my mind hole into the next year.

Years ago I tuned an electromotive ecu in a carbon bodied 427sc powered cobra. When it came time to do the final street tuning and I took it off the dyno I was blown away by the performance of the thing. Very quick and nimble if a bit hard to keep up with using the huge tiller! And I was used to driving some very quick supras at the time as it was mostly what I tuned.

Supra's are pretty good looking too, it's always exciting to see one on the road because of the rarity. My gf didn't understand my reaction when I saw one not too long ago.
