zomg.. what I'd give to have a couple P4's in my stable. so. much. money.

nope (obligatory ASU/UofA rivalry counter-gif)

I'm sure Watson knows more about BMW's than I do, but my $.02.. $2k for a 20+ year old BMW pushing 130K miles is asking for trouble.. That is unless you know how to wrench your own cars. If not, and you need to bring it to a service shop, make sure to have money in the bank and some KY, because you'll need it.

I know this is just a trailer queen but... If this car went off track, those lines would be ripped off in a second. Shops like Singer and Magnus Walker are dope, but they just produce boutique cars. I'm not sure how they will hold value in the next 10+ years.

What a complete waste of money. Fix the stance, finish the bumper, lines look horrible, retarded wing. 2/10 would not bang.

Our latest ready for delivery:

Sorry Protester, haven't had much action on the 935... still waiting on the engine. Just got the motec rebuilt and reprogrammed. Hopefully in a week or so we can dump it in. In the meantime, rebuilt a 912 and completely rebuilt another RSR switching the front end from a Peter Greg wall dam to a modified FIA front end to accommodate his humongous oil cooler. The red RSR has a stroked out 4.2L motor..... Full blown race car, 480 HP.....Stupid fast. The 935 should push somewhere in the realm of 650-670ish hp.

I actually built this car. That orange 935 I posted a page back is the third car I've built for the same customer. The owner is a semi pro driver who races ALMS and IMSA.. He has quite the stable of cars.

been looking for a copy of Bike Cad Pro on the interwebs and can't find anything. Searched the warez forums, torrent sites, and some newsgroups. Anyone have a lead on this? https://www.bikecad.ca/bikecadpro

@Protester body panels are loosely hung until final fit (hence the lines) but figured you would dig it. Waiting on engine. Will be a 3.6 single turbo. Motec management system. 480 hp.

Finished my first frame.

Brilliant. To expand on this tip... - Use a small nail (drywall nails work well) and hammer out 10 to 15 holes in the lip of the paint can where the lid seats with the can. When you tap the lid back on, any residual pain will seep back into the can and not harden up and glue the lid to the can. Also, Use 2" masking tape and make a pouring spout on the opposite side of the color label (auto paint usually puts color codes on the side, not the top). Pour without getting paint all over the side of your can.

@drew- that 356 is bannnnnnggginn the Ferrari's and 240's do nothing for me......

Any of you guys into framebuilding? I'm building a couple road bikes here in the near future, just working on some tooling to keep things square. Steel is real.

Who is this?

Windows 8 can lick my anus. Why does Microsoft have to introduce a new OS when they finally just fine tuned the previous version? I hate change.

I feel you on that.. I was just hit by a bus. Luckily my hand/bike were the only things broken. Good luck on recovery.

The beer is just OK however, if you are ever in PDX, swing in and eat that bacon maple doughnut... It is disgustingly good.

...and yes that is a full carbon body.

one of our customers drives professionally in IMSA and ALMS.... here is one of his newer toys.

Are you high? That gem would roast a 180 in any and every facet of racing as it sits. :lol: I'd prop if I could hahaha I suppose I just like old cars.... and as far as wasting money and time.. for those who are into old slammed VW's, check out these cats in Spain. http://panscrapers.skynetblogs.be/

I'm not saying it needs to be profitable, just closer to the break even point. I build cars.. and love starting new projects, I would just want a project to give me some money to roll comfortably into the new project. All good though, I can appreciate the hobby factor.. I have more than plenty that waste way too much time/money.

I'm probably alone on this, but maybe my age is forcing me to look at a lot of these tuner cars as really really bad investments, although I could be VERY wrong. It seems like doods are dumping ridiculous amounts of money into these mass produced imports, and when it comes time to sell, they won't get remotely close to their investment back... maybe 35%? I'm not knocking them at all, because they do look dope (some of them) but it just seems like a waste of money. Am I missing something? Same with some of the newer cars that were posted a few images up... go out, buy new VW/Lancer/WRX/etc for 25-30k, completely mod engine (void warranty in process), dump another 8-10k in suspension/bolt-ons, than sell car for 15-20k if you're lucky. Again, am I missing something?
