You might have guessed, I like Audis.

That's ok AJ, we will not hold it against you. After all, you are redeemed by enjoying Omega Watches... 😁
PS: Nice stable though!

So I left the Ford family but did find a solution to my wife’s challenge...

707 hp 645 fpt
0-60 in 3.5 secs
12mpg and unlimited smiles!

Most have no clue what it is, but those who know, know.

Should be sufficient to pick up the groceries...

It’s even better than that! Not only can you bring home the eggs, but when you arrive they’re already scrambled! 😉

Right 😀

Here's my summer ride - a 1967 Conv. big block (more about her here: www.1967mustang.dk ):



Changing spark plugs is quite a pain:

S code vert... not a common car...

Spring is just round the corner so I'm trying to get my GT6 back together so I can enjoy it this year. This is it a couple of years ago.



I'm also lucky enough to own a Porsche 944 S2 that gets used all year round



My everyday car is a Lexus that is so boring I haven't even got a photo of it 😟
Love the GT6! I owned a fully restored 73...Bright Yellow. Lovely Car till
It was hit from behind by the large Sanitation Truck. Oh the horror...the horror.

You and me both.
About 10 years ago I was ready to pull the trigger.
I was in college and did not really need a car a whole lot but ultimately I decided that it wasn't a good idea to buy a 20 year old car for what I could buy a brand new car for, so I picked up a GTI instead.
Even if I had bought it, a cross country move a few years later probably would have forced me to sell it.
And I'd probably be even more mad at myself right now hah.
One day I'll have a 964...

They're awesome cars, just enough classic car feel while still having decent performance. Needs a suspension upgrade to unlock it's full potential though.

Agreed. In my opinion it is the perfect mix of classic and modern 911. Which Is why I want one so bad hah.
And yours looks fantastic.
Exactly how I would want mine.

I find the ride better in my 996. And, with the money I saved driving this model over the air cooled, I can buy a suitcase full of watches.

Just throwing some old school Italian ingredient into the mix...😉

1980 Alfa Romeo GTV 2.0, on carbs of course.😁

Lots of work since i acquired it, 23 years ago.



Currently on a nut and bolt restoration. Sunroof soon to be deleted along with the rear seat, roll bar already installed.👍

Battery will be moved in the trunk, new alu radiator with twin cooling fans, new oil catch tank, new...i think the list is never going to end.🤨

GTV6 bonnet is to stay though...😉

We bought a new Hemi Challenger back at the end of May.

It doesn't ride like a Cadillac.

Awesome car! Love the sound of those twincams. Looking for a GTV 2000 or 1750 myself.

996 is the steal in the 911 lineup at the moment, wouldn't refuse a yellow 996 GT3 clubsport 🥰

Beautiful 👍

I've had a few Alfa Sprints, Suds, 155 and 156 (2.0 and 3xV6) in my younger days but the GTV is definitely something special 😎

A mate has an early 996 C2. One of the finest driver cars ever made....IMS issues notwithstanding.

With two young children determined to crush as many Cheerios during a car trip as possible my wife and I went with ....a 14’ CRV,
Is it sexy? -Hell no
But I figure the Canadian winters will quickly start giving it a nice ‘rust patina’, so might as well save my money.

I always preferred the 2.0s to the V6 (same with 75s) because the chassis balance easily compensated for the lesser power.
Just as eye candy, here's a rather distinctive GTV at our local AROC 'show' at Hever Castle last month:
