I have a video of it moving but you can't hear the engine or exhaust.
I took it really fast with my digital camera while my car was stopped.

Honestly, I'd hate to have so much money I didn't know what to do with it...I think it makes me a better, stronger person to work my butt off to earn enough to pay my bills and eat ramen for dinner...I mean, the stress of not having money keeps me on my toes...I think if I were rich, I'd be lazy and accomplish so much less...
I believe the only people who think money doesnt bring happiness have never been poor.

As much as I agree with what you're saying, who doesn't want money. I'd probably be more lazy and would accomplish less, but who cares, I could afford it.

I saw a Ferrari F360 Spider, or possibly a brand new yellow Ferrari F430 Spider in a valet parking lot last week when I went on a job interview in the West Los Angeles area.

I can not even fathom what it must be like to have so much money that you can literaly have 99% of ANYTHING that you want, and living the crazy life that these folks must lead.

seriously when I saw that SLR the person looked like any normal guy but to think he has so much money its hard for me to imagine.

There's a Ferrari/Maserati repair shop right behind my office building, they always have at least 20 of them parked out back. I'll take a picture some time. One day a few weeks ago I saw an Enzo pull into there, but it was a gray Enzo, ewww. The only true color for an Enzo is red.

Where did i ever say this? You must be reading from a different post. I am saying I hate the car because you cant get a manual transmission its as simple as that.I would never own the car because its an auto, but that just me.I would get a Porsche Carrera GT because it beats it in looks and performance.
canton_ph34r
06-29-2005, 07:23 PM
Yeah the Carrera GT is nice but it doesn't really seem like a Porsche because its so big compared to all other Porsches.

Guess what the Top Gear tested this SLR, he prefered it over the F1.
I still have the video clip in my PSP.
I'll take this a$$ kicking SLR over 99% of the manual on the streets.
BTW it is not McLaren that made it automatic, it is Mercedes that made them keep the automatic. Owning the fastest automatic in the world is not bad thing to have wouldn't you say?

on the topic of ridiculously expensive cars, i was in downtown bellevue and was crossing the crosswalk when a ford gt40, a 360 modena, and a f*ckin enzo sped by. They came down a few cars apart; too fast for me to take a pic.

The comment is in reference to the price. We are all (not necessarily just you) very judgemental of vehicles we will never in our lives even have the opportunity to possess. It made me laugh; you would never get it because its auto...its still a hell of alot better than a Celica GTS. But thats ok, the owner of this car probably wouldn't buy your car either.

IF i had the money I would not buy it thats all i am saying. Also you never know maybe you or I will have the money for a car like that someday somebody has to.

if you hit a bump with the front wheels it would take 2-3 seconds for the back to do the same.

Shiiit if you can afford that anyways im sure you can afford to have a shop fabricate a way to make it a manual if you wanted it that bad.
