OT: My new toy

Travis · 09-01-2007, 05:47 PM

Just wanted to show off my new baby....

BigAl07 · 09-01-2007, 05:49 PM

Can I get a SWEET!

Wow! I'm impressed! Nice ride buddy.... that should really help your back start feeling MUCH better. I'd bet DrHank would prescribe MANY hours of "top-less" therapy to help you out if you need it for work reasons

Well if it was an american car I would say where is the blower, But it isnt so were it the coffe can size turbo?

Travis · 09-01-2007, 06:05 PM

Doesn't really need one... weighs 2800lb and has 237 peak HP and an 8K RPM redline. It boogeys plenty for me.

boozeman · 09-01-2007, 06:09 PM

AQTCJAK · 09-01-2007, 06:12 PM

I liked the 3400# 1200 RWHP Naturally Aspirated

I expected the same exact thing!

Is that a brand new S2K? I think this is the last year of production for those bad boys. That's going to be a fun toy!

mps9506 · 09-01-2007, 10:16 PM

I just realized, we are hardly ever gonna see T now!
Please don't forget to leave the keys to the liquor cabinet. Or at least leave the whiskey out.

Yup. It's all I can take not to park it in the garage, drop a blanket over it and forget about it for 20 years... I honestly believe the s2k will be the karmann ghia of our generation.

But instead, I think I'll drive the hell out of it.

Beautiful car. No wonder you have been so busy lately.

Wish you were taking it to MACNA. I would beg a ride just for the fun of it.
