My elise next to my new daily driver...

I am not really a truck person, but :

1- I needed to be able to haul my daughter's ATV
2- I didnt feel comfortable referring to my elise as a buzzbomb until now

Looking through this thread... I love when 'regular' cars are still quite exotic. HA HA!

Anybody have a deal for an active military? A deal would be the only way I could get one.

I didn't ride in the R8. I went in the white countache, the viper acr, the ford gt, a 430, a 360 and the f40.

I almost almost almost passed the R8. The owner asked if I was on slicks and how much horse power the lotus had. I said stock tires and 190. Now the r8 is for sale, with only 9800 km on it.

still kind of a cool pic though
Who in their right mind would buy a car from China? After the lead on kids' toys, melamine in pet food and even in their own milk supply, etc... WTF?

I was in Walmart this morning (not by choice). I made a point of looking at all the tags as I followed my girlfriend around - every item I looked at was made in China. Maybe if Walmart sourced some goods domestically, there could be a few more jobs in North America. Maybe if less consumers bought Walmart's toxic Chinese crap, it would have the desired effect.

Took this pic, then got back in the car to have lunch. As I was sitting, the owner of the truck came out and took a picture as well.
