That Acura is proper sexy, I think the X6 is worse, the only car that makes the X6 good looking is the beautiful Pontiac Aztec!

I did think the ZDX looked quite smart. getmecoat
There has also been a 407 lurking my tabs today! getmecoat

That Pontiac Aztec should never even be within a certain distance from this thread, let alone in it. banghead

Wow. That is a gem of a car. Want, want want.

I think I know I will be obsessing over for the rest of the week now!

I know matt black is seriously played out these days, much like the phrase 'played out', but I don't care. I want to do unspeakable things to this that don't include lacquering it - well, not in a conventional manner.

Not sure what the new F-Type will finally look like, but if it looks like this, then yes please Jag for me:







Hopefully, Top Gear Series 19 will get one to enjoy and will Jag do a F-Type R version?

An E39 M5.... not a pristine low miles one, just a mechanically sound £6k or so (if that's possible) one for tooling around in, parking without fear of damage, doing stuff my Z$MC can't etc!

Today? Oh, I'm sure I'll get some flaming for this one. Wrong wheel drive, tarted up Golf etc...



Not this exact car. But my girlfriend and I were wandering past a VW showroom and- in a brilliant example of why I think she's The One wink - she suggested that we wander inside, since I like drooling over cars and so on.

Ten minutes later, I find myself sat in the driver's seat of a red Scirocco 2.0 with a DSG gearbox. It was only parked up and the salesman was too busy with other customers to prise money out of me that day. hehe

Just as well really. I'm saving up for a Z4 coupé that's a better car in almost any way, and it's cheaper too. I already drive an Octavia vRS so a Scirocco's going to be very similar to any other one of the Golf/Leon/A3 family.

But I had a bad attack of want. Just as well that salesman was busy...

And my girlfriend? She didn't like the lack of reversing view but she did like an Eos. I can partly see the appeal, but don't think I'll end up agreeing to that one though. wink
I was driving home last night when a dark metallic brown one of those pulled up next to me at a set of lights. It looked great.

It was brown and looked great. Not much can pull that off.



If the driver is reading this and was freaked out by a guy in an Elise staring at you for longer than is comfortable I apologise

I spent last night in a hotel bar drooling over Piston Heads Classifieds DB9's and Continental GT's.
My brain is so washed this morning with the idea that 40k isnt very much money and I should buy one as soon as I get home.
(brain washing my Wife may not be so easy).

Blimey, I like the idea of a brown Scirocco.

I've been eyeing up Renault Megane 250's as well... I shall have to have a lie down. wink

Had that been the styling for the recent Impreza people would still be buying it.

Finally finished this month's Evo this morning and now I can't shift the urge for a BBR-tweaked MX5. Damn you Meaden.
