Okay, this is a bit out of character, but I had to post this and share it with Memnoch especially (and anyone else who loves sports cars).

My new car .......



[img]smile.gif[/img]

And yes, it is as much fun to drive as it looks like it would be. [img]smile.gif[/img] It has 148 miles on it as of this afternoon. I JUST got it. [img]smile.gif[/img]

This is NOT a pic of the EXACT car I bought, but one I downloaded off the web. The color of mine is a bit different than the color in the picture - more of a dark steel blue. When I get a pic of the exact car, I'll post it.

PS: Attalus MADE me post this. LOL

PPS: Thanks to Deathkiller for hosting the pic. [img]smile.gif[/img]

wow, thats a beauty

Is it a Z8?
because I love the look of them, though I haven't ever seen one on the road.
Owning one of them would be a dream come true... so how does it feel?

It's the Z4 - the Z8 is WAY outside my price range. lol

I LOVE the car. [img]smile.gif[/img] Corners unbelievably - turns on a dime (almost). It's a dream to drive.

Top end is over 125 mph (listed top speed is 146 mph) but I haven't gotten ANYWHERE near that yet (and probably won't). lol

Question Mark

Nice!!! I have to be honest, when I first saw it I didn't like the shape but it's growing on me - and it looks much better than the Z3 which I thought always looked a bit stunted.

As for mine, it in the shop till the end of March getting fixed. I have a feeling that the repairs guy is stretching it out because it's insured.

So at the moment I'm driving my sister's MG:



Nice but not quite the same as my Alfa. [img]graemlins/awcrap.gif[/img]
