Thanks for that Caparo T1 vid. I've been watching web videos on this car since the early development. Cool to see the problems ironed out and the press starting to get more drives in it and form more reliable opinions than Clarkson's lame take on it months ago. 'And there's going to be loads of footballers in ditches with this thing....' or something like that... remember that comment? Supposedly this car develops so much down force with its undercarriage shape that if it could stick itself to the walls or ceiling of a tunnel at 150mph, if it could get up there...The sound when the driver fired the engine over was just like pure evil wrapped up in a motor!

(keeping this thread alive)

I realized that my neighborhood has some interesting cars. I know of a early model Nissan 300ZX, a Ford Taurus SHO with the V6, and a Ford Mustang Mach 1.

How about your neighborhood? Any interesting cars?

A handful Porsche 911s, Aston Martin V8 Vantage, and all those BMWs, Mercedes, Lexus, ...

It might be stretching the "neighborhood" word a bit, but 3 miles down the road a car dealer have quite a nice collection of cars for sale. Here are some of them.

Does anyone have some tips for changing headlight bulbs?

I'm trying to change the ones on my Toyota Echo, and I can't for the life of me reach down to the one on the LHS since the fusebox sits right above the space behind headlight......

Just got the R32 APR tuned, and an EVO V-flow intake put in a couple weeks ago. Now she's significantly quicker, and third gear has gone from boatloads of fun to positively insane.

Should have done this loonnnggggg ago!

krmathis-

Love the images from your 'neighborhood dealer'! Of all the cars there, I'd most like to take that Koenigsegg for a weekend spin, followed closely by the Ferrari 430 Scuderia.

Funny, I just saw a black Exige S in the lot of my favorite wine shop right after work today.... black no less, with black wheels too.... Very cool car.

Just got back from a GREAT drive down the coast including a 900 mile, 14 hour stint (R32 seats=amazing).
Driving up the pacific coast highway alone at 3:00AM was absolutely epic. Hwy 299 was a very nice surprise too.
