Boxing day at Movie Towne... I know the CLS has gotten a bit common, but never saw one with 20" staggered rims before.

so guess what the purple porsche windscreen shatter and the man just park it up in the back yes

if i rembr correctly there's more to the story than that...and in your list you've missed the best of the lot...
Sad about the lambo, but considering it was parked for so long i'm sure alot would be happy he's actually doing something about it...
At the end of the day, he's prolly reading this laughing at you all, cause he's still got his fleet and even if fallen from grace, still has the money to fix it

VW Tiguan spotted earlier today... for those not in d know, it's the baby brother to the mighty Touareg. Badge on the back shows its running the 2.0 TSI engine (2 litre turbo, 200ps)... so not to be messed with, unless you in a Mazda CX7 :wink:

Sorry about the quality of pics.

Nope, the XFR has the supercharged engine, and to my knowledge none have been imported as yet... it only launched a couple months now.

Love it tho... and yea, I wasn't sold on the front either til I saw a black one in the flesh. The mesh grill and chrome accents stand out a lot more against the darker colours... you could tell it's the real deal, and not some chromed plastic sheit.

the xf is available with a "supercharged 4.2L V-8 which produces 420hp and goes from 0-60mph in 5.1 seconds" that review confirms it.

http://www.edmunds.com/insideline/do/Dr ... eId=125955

the xf-r still has not been released... it only just officially un-veiled in the detroit auto show "As expected, it's powered by a new supercharged 5.0-liter V8. The slightly larger engine is rated to produce 510-horsepower and 460 pound-feet of torque which puts it right up there with the BMW M5, Cadillac CTS-V and Mercedes-Benz E63, at least in terms of horsepower. Jag says it's enough power to get the XFR from 0-to-60 in 4.7-seconds while the top speed is electronically limited to 155mph. "

I posted these (among others) in the trucks forum, but I figured you don't see a Land Rover Defender everyday, nor a Hilux IMV changing colour from white to brown :lol:

. These are from a trip to Las Cuevas earlier today

S2000 got hydralics, and the 350Z is chic driven!!

cinco · Postby **cinco** » January 18th, 2009, 12:53 pm

they have to fly in a tech for the GTR due to the complicated nature of the drivetrain
the US GTR dealers were specially selected and have a single bay and technician dedicated to servicing the car
BCGT would be the same as the lambo owners although audi may be able to do the servicing
