Pontiac Trans-Am...Smokey and The Bandit Eat my Poop

This bad boy has been parked around the corner from my work for the past few weeks. Had to stop and take a few pictures.

Looks like it has some modern work done to it, would love to know about the engine and suspension it.


 It's like this car is singing "I'm Sexy and I know it" the whole time you are looking at it..."I work out"

Ferrari Owner's Club: KC April 2013

Oh, how the other half live! There must have been several millions of dollars on show at the Owner's Club this past weekend. All the cars were perfectly beautiful.
 As I pulled in an amazing trio pulled out: AMG CLS, Testatrossa and a bright orange Porsche GT3 (not pictured). They took off like hot sh*t, the AMG sounded amazing. 
 458 Italia
 16M Scuderia, my personal favourite of the day

 A beautiful DINO, when the lady owner started it up later, it cranked a few times and then chugged into life spewing a cloud of blue smoke that left everyone a the beverage station choking. But with beauty like this, you can't fault a bit of Carbon Monoxide poisoning.





 This was a stellar Maserati. A special MC edition, not sure which, had tons of Carbon Fiber on it. Approved by the two kitchen lads that snook out to take a look.




 599 GTO - Bon Heur...right up there with the 16M for top honors
 GTO interior

 Mercedes-Benz 300SL Gullwing...as Jeremy McGuire would say "you had me at hello"

 Great looking little Moris-Minor kitted out to be a support car for one of the Ferrari owners.




 F-355 Berlinetta








 Spotted this one in the parking lot...Rapide
 Saw these two Porsches (Latin Plural, Porshi?) on the way home. They didn't get an invite to the Marinello show, but looks like they were having their own straight six fun.
A Turbo for sure on the right, but what edition is the classic white one?

A beautiful Ferrari California parked over by the Movie Theater on Antioch in Merriam, KS. The owner made sure to park nowhere near any other cars. But that just made it look like it was on display and myself and another bunch of Looky-Lews were over snapping camera shots of her.

Funny that this car got slated in the media and called a "Lady" Ferrari, but up close and personal it's just as amazing as any Ferrari you've ever seen.

Volvo Wagon Estate Dreams of Le Mans

Walked out of Latteland a few days ago and was greeted by this oddity, dressed up like a Porsche racer from the 1970s. I think this is the same livery the Porsche 935 "Baby" wore, before she was retired/removed for being too awesome?

KC Car Show 2011: Really?

No a single flying ffing car. Very disappointing. But if there had been one it would not have been surprising, as we've been wanting and expecting those for the past 20 years. But what did blow my ffing mind was the fact that KIA and Hyundai had probably the best cars on show.

Stuart and I might be a bit of the old car snob, but we were both very impressed with the Koreans. The new Optima looked better than anything on the Toyota or Honda stand. In fact, the Accord sedan looked like a great big turd, albeit all shined up for the occasion.

Here's the best of the show:
Scooby looked the dog's bollox...would love to see mica blue and gold
Fiat 500 making an early appearance in the US
Like the Subaru motor above...ah, actually no
Citroen DS3 Racing....nope Chevy look-a-like
This was one of the best looking cars at the show
Hope to God they make it
What you say about my mama's fat ass?

Can you believe a Kia was a head turner?
