that was 2 hours ago... it was so cool I thought I´d share it with you guys

I was driving on the autobahn with a friend of mine. We were doing about 200 km/h on the left lane, overtaking some slower cars. I checked the back mirror and saw some headlights (it was dark) approaching relativly fast... looking at the shape of the headlights I said to my buddy "Oh, we´re gonna be overtaken by a Porsche..." I switched to the right lane to let the fast guy pass...
Then at first, hearing the sound of this car, looking at the shape of it I said "Oh, it´s not a porsche" then 1/2 second later "OHHHHHH YES, A GT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

This is what it looked like then:

We have a lot of Porsches, Lambos, Ferraris here in Germany, especially in the area where I live and work, but this is the first time I saw this car "live", and heard this amazing sound...

We heard him even when he was 1km ahead of us... and remember, he was slow, about 230-240 km/h... this car tops out at 330 km/h....

This is a dream car... the ultimate dream car!

I sure as hell wouldn't mind driving one!!! <img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>

But i don't know about the "ultimate dream car" part, i've still always been in love with the Lamborghini Diablo VTT.

I have yet to see a Cararra GT on the road, but i have seen video clips of it, and the sounds is amazing!

All i can say say Homer is.......Porsche, there is no substitute!

Diablo, not a bad choice...

I saw one like this one on the pic (what a nice colour!) in Frankfurt a few days ago... the guy who drove it really put down the pedal jumping from one traffic light to the next... extremly noisy car!

Homer, you have been blessed by the sound of a GT.

It's not a car, it's a force of nature...

605 horsepower definitely qualifies the GT as a 'force of nature'. :)

WAY too much money though($440,000). :(

If needs be we'll zap you belligerent hoglets into compliance. <img src=newicons/saevil.gif border=0 align=middle>
