The Mangusta is probably the sexiest car on the planet :smt050

The Pantera comes a very very close second.

Ferrari? Pffftt... De Tomaso for the win..


Awesome pics Nooj :smt023

Mr Haynes is right - the proper colour for a sports car is red!

Yep - porsche red :)


Let's face it, you wouldn't go to a nurse to get good advice on a problem with a Falco - you'd choose an Engineer or a mechanic...

This shouldn't have been there at all. Found out on another forum it's actually..... a Triumph Spitfire. It's a kit car made from GRP, marine ply and ally on a Spitfire chassis. That's why it's wearing Minilites instead of spoked wheels, which I though was an odd choice when I saw it.
