Someone should tell VW that 100hp/l is no good if you have less that 3 litres... ;) :twisted:

There is video to follow about this chick that told us all about how she enjos the great ride of the new, longer, stronger Dodge Magnum.. (Yeah Baby - I am sure you do.. ;))

Look at this - the Corvette C6 is not even released yet and it looks like it loosened her up - Someone was getting lucky later tonight... :twisted:

Nice pics RC, thanks! The first of the factory riced up is terrible, but that Merc has the most beautiful rims in the world IMO! :D

nice babes too :D but in the US you desperately need a Lancia stand!! :D

[SPEEDKILLAR]

Nice pics, how can ppl actually ruin their cars like that, MORONS :!:

[novass]

Nice pics RC. Thanks for sharing them. I wish my car was always as shiny as those cars. Im sure the lights help add to that effect but still if it were possible to maintain that luster that would be great.

There were actually people wiping the cars down every 5 minutes.. ;)

So - yeah, maintaining that luster takes a lot of work... :lol:

your days fucking rule 8)

[Minacious]

Good stuff RC. That Mini Cooper is sweet.

[PATo355]

Nice categories you have man , that Factory Rice is very good !!!

[DeMoN]

Man those are asome pics! So now that you have seen the C6 in person, do you rather have that or the C5?

No - I do not like the rear treatment of the C6 - besides, the coupe and vert are too "tame" for my liking... ;) - I am not into "auto-shift & refinement" LOL :lol;

If the C6 Z06 version came out and was still competivley priced, and was a no-compromise performance car - and it was an FRC, I would consider it - even if I did not love the looks.

But then again, no matter how much performance they cram into the C6 Z06, the Z06 is still a very capable car.

Nice pictures- it's funny that a stock evo 8 is in the rice section. I never liked how they changed the look of those lights.
