I can tell the difference between these cars:

I have a harder time telling the difference between these cars:

I'll never be able to afford any of them, but at least with the older ones they don't look exactly the same. It's hard to get excited about a new car that looks like the old car, goes faster than the already way too fast old car, costs somewhere in the neighborhood of a zillion dollars and even if you had that much money they're only making 4 of them and you're not getting one.

I mean… that last one is for sure a new shade of red

what would the appropriate "car guy" reaction have been?

As others have stated, there are different levels to being a "car guy" but i remain fascinated by what premium manufacturers are pumping out in todays market despite the miniscule chance of driving or owning one. I wasn't shitting on the forum, but as it has matured and has taken on new direction into many aspects of life and i enjoy Beyond for what it is. I don't need to quote the HP figures or MSRP to try to sound smarter than anyone, but the willing ignorance towards a modern Ferrari hypercar was kind of amusing to me.

I’d say it’s more indifference than willing ignorance

Fair enough. For me, Ferrari feels just all over the map recently, so I've stopped paying attention. I enjoyed getting wrapped up in the P1/918/LaFerrari thing awhile ago, but since then, I haven't felt the urge.
You should start a thread about this new one and learn us about it!

While I'm familiar with all of the new model Super/Hypercars I will likely never own (or even drive), the thing Ferrari does that I pay the most attention to now is when they send someone a cease and desist letter, and it makes the news/Youtube/whatever.

Back to cars we own/drove

My friend let me drive his newly acquired '79 930 today. Bigger turbo, cam, etc. Only 2,600lbs. Took it to World of Wheels today. Just from my butt, I'd say it'd trap 115-120mph in the quarter. We'll do a dragy on it later.
The sounds it makes, especially deep in the boost 5,000-7,000rpm are addicting. It def requires driver input. He'll be changing things up a bit to his taste.

And got the stupid winters off the X3 today. So much better with the stock 21's. Still wish it were lower (has H&Rs already).

P car is nice, that truck is pretty low already for a pickup unless you are Latino.

It’s the x3 I wish were lower. Actually I love the c10 to be lower too but bags seem like a pita.

[killramos]

Have you considered a 3 series?

Bro the X3 looks lower than my m3. I don't know how much lower you'd want a SUV to be. Lol.

That's a big boy Porsche but I don't think a widow maker will trap shit because Widow Maker. The Turbo lag is like being rear-ended and until that happens, nothing like Dodge Caravan nothing is happening.
That vehicle is negligently dangerous and needs to be carefully protected.

That Porsche is sick. I think tunerworks posted it on their insta this week.

[Ekliptix]

Yea. They’re gonna tune it up. Apparently they worked on it 10+ yrs ago.
For my bmw lowering, it’s the fender gap I don’t like. I’ll get a taller sidewall on my next tire.

More. Took the C10 out for the first drive of 2024. Found a jazz club in the SW (Mahogany). Even had a blind singer (actually), so I knew it was legit.

Mahogany is the filthy SE, bro.

Don’t tarnish the Aspen elite like that.
