This is no OPEL!!!

Last night I took a ride the most ultimate car probably ever built to date. The picture I posted is from the internet, not the actual car. I wish I could get the pictures off my phone and post them. So I know it isn't Opel related but hey, we are all car guys so I thought you all would appreciate this awesome machine.

It looks kind of sporty. What is it?

It is just a little old turbo charged, V10, carbon fiber chassis, $450,000.00, Porsche Carrera GT. It is an unbelievable car, and it was an experience of a lifetime.

That is my favorite car. The car I would buy if I had an opportunity to spend that much money on a car. Just the sound of that engine and exhaust is enough to make me fall in love with it.

Not turbocharged...but it doesn't need it anyway! I was lucky enough to work on one of these, and the sound alone is worth the price of admission.

Yes Bob the sound is awesome! Nothing like a typical Porsche. It sounds like a real race car.

HAHAHAHA, yeah the brake color totally ruins the whole thing. Now if they were pink then that would be an AWESOME car.
