I went to the Dr. today but the cars I saw made up for it...

Got to see a Cayenne Turbo S getting on the freeway. I was already doing about 65 in Sis's Accord criusin along and from the on ramp on the right I heard this killer sound and suddenly a soccer mom suv cane SCREAMING by looked badass and that fooker was FAST not bad for a kid hauler... too bad it retails for 140k+ That was a awesome car.


A little later in town on a main city street at a light I hear the unmistakable sound of a badass V8 gettin down to biz. I automaticly turn on the search radar as I hear the revs come up and lots of tire screeching accompanied with the scream of a V8 at a solid 7k+ I hear a shift to second and lots more screaming tires and v8 noise then a shift to 3rd and on a side street crossing the one Im on see a old beater fox body rustang emerging from a growing cloud of smoke :lol That had me grinning and snikering like a kid. Dam nothing sounds like a healthy V8 doing its thing... :drool Ya just dont hear that much anymore...

Then at Safeway I spot a flawless beige n black Model T Ford (with the rumble seat open ) with normal plates not the uasual historic ones. That caught my attention, thinking it was just a clean modernized rebuild... when I saw the wood spoked wheels!

I park across from it and the owner comes strolling up to it and then I notice he grabs a crank handle from inside the car! WOW!! a daily driver Model T dood sticks the crank in the hole up front goes inside fiddles with Im assuming was the spark advance on the steering collum goes back to the front and cranks it a bit and the near 100 year old gem clatters to life!!! Hell Ya!!

A little grinding of gears and he backs up grinds a bit more (no syncros) and grinning he criuses off!!! That was Awesome!! I love old stuff like that, a era gone by..... I wish I had a camera to get some pics of it, it looked like it just rolled out of the Ford assembly line!

Found some huge hi res pics of aa cayenne tho...

Fifth gear or test gear whatever those 2 shows are.. 1 of em ripped up the Cayeen and didnt like it all. Glad you saw some cool cars expecially that model T! Thats impressive!

I had my own little fun on the way home from work tonight, hit the light to turn left and in the other left turn lane to my right there is this mustang and scoots up im assuming so I can see all his purty gauges lol well then there was this other white mustang behind it and at first I let them kind of go first thinking the white one was going to swerve in front of me if he got a chance so I just backed off anywase.... There is a light almost right away it turns green as Im rolling up and I let them get up to speed and get next to me and nail it... WOoo that was fun! Probally from 40-90 or so I dont know...short n fun but what really made my day was I was in the middle lane and I could see the red mustang in my mirror on the right about 2 car lenghts back and 1 car to my left about a car length behind before I let off and the guy as he went by had the biggest grin on his face gave me thumbs up and then I noticed it was a 3000gt! I was like holy smokes where did this come from, It was just funny to me because you couldnt set it up any better if you tried 2 mustangs and a 3000gt, all worked and im in the middle lane. Yeah I :squid ed out in some of yalls opinions but when you have a bike that runs 12.9 turbod stangs and similair are a fun go, its pretty fun in my opinion going against cars like that due to my "slow bike" compared to other bikes but its fast in car terms.

wait, you saw an actual model-t running????

You bet. We have lots of vintage cars here, most only come out for parades or Toys for Tots. The starting procedure was the real cool thing. Hand starting a 4 cylinder? That rocked! :dblthumb

Wanna hear something funny.... that Cayenne was the BIGGEST car in Spain when I was there last year. The only thing that I saw that was b***** was a H2 Hummer and all my friends were drooling over it. I almost pissed my self laughing with memories of 40 year old soccer moms nearly driving me off the road in the H2's these kids were drooling on.

 

[Krazy Hawaiian]

^^ LOL I was thinking Hommer when I was reading your post :lol Although I do like the Humvee, them things ROCK.


Oh the Cayenes rock too.... only if there the turbo S's that thing was blazing fast! (who knows if it was stock tho)

I tried explaining to them that every soccer mom in America drove h2's but instead of making the h2 less cool it just made soccer mom's look cooler. Me - 0 Soccer moms - 1

that's nothing...some friends and i went to Barber MSP in AL. to see the AMA races...at the la Quinta hotel we were staying at, there was a liquor store not more than a couple blocks away...now, this was a run-of the-mill store, nothing fancy...next thing we know, a huge, bright canary yellow rig rumbled in...and it was like WTHIT!! we approached the thing and it turned out that it was a brand new International trhingamajig...modded out of course...Hummer ain't got nothing on this baby!! this thing was huge! :urowned and of course, it was flying the flag...being Dixie and all. YK. lemme see if i can find a pic online.. hatyo talk about a rare sighting! i'll probably never see another one on the street again...priceless!

 

[Krazy Hawaiian]

LMAO Ive seen that befvore. On Top Gear or some show like that! Its a International Tractor with a PU bed on it :lol I forget the name of it, there only making a limited number of em thank god!


Over here we got stretch hummers made into limos 60 feet long Talk about useless hehe, at least the International has a major intimidation factor!

Sorry, Cayenne is the ugliest car ever made.

Looks like the CXT...I believe the top of the line model will have close to 1000lbs of torque and pull something like 11 tons

My uncle has a Cayenne... It's a big slow piece of sh*t with a fat price tag - according to every person that has driven it.

Now on the other hand, I had never seen a Ford GT in person until the other day when I saw TWO in ONE day! I had to clean my pants, I love those things. Faster than the Ferrari and even more stylish, all for less mulah.
