  9. One of the best quattro videos out there from one of the best TV programs on TV! :D Of course, it's annoying that we can't hear the car because of the music, but there's some great clips here and the tune is pretty good ;)

  15. The winner of this year's 24 hours of Le Mans GTE Pro category (production cars). The Corvette team won after completing 377 laps (2,864.50 miles) with a 5 lap class lead on second place (Ferrari 458 Italia)


    C7R

    I've always considered corvettes (think 90's to early 00's) to be garish looking and unimpressive. A white trash dream car as it were. While the C06 had reputable performance, it seemed somewhat lacking when it came to style. However, the C7, while not a large departure in style, fills the voids. It looks great and is incredibly engineered. It also exists at an attainable price point relative to other cars of comparable performance (or so I've heard).

    In other words, I quite like it. It isn't socially refined; it carries no air of superiority; it's just well engineered.

  16. I've never really liked Corvette but I have to say that they did really well on the latest one. That yellow Z06 in the last part of your post is probably one of the only Corvettes that I can really say that I like :) I saw it win the 24h Le Mans too, pretty impressive! :D

  20. Mazda 2 2010. Once I finish my driving tests and get my license (should be done before I'm 3 months through my 17th year on this planet :p), I'm buying one of these. They're cheap and sexy :p
