Nice little car dichotomy today. Sitting at a stoplight in Cary (crossroads area) directly in front of me was a Prius, in front of that was a sliver Nissan GTR. Kind of an ugly car. Still, cool to see one. 3/23/2013 3:29:23 PM |

White rolls and silver R8 at north hills last night. A client of mine has a silver R8 as well, but his is a V10, one last night didn't sound the same so I am assuming it was a V8 3/23/2013 3:35:49 PM |

Dual exhaust = v10
Quad exhaust =v8

There's a guy in my building at work that has a new Tesla Model S, and fuck its gorgeous. I want one really badly, to the point I've thought about selling the Lotus. Just going to wait it out another year or two for used models to hit the market. 3/23/2013 7:45:18 PM |

Audi's top level performance trim has always had large dual exhaust ovals. The lower performance trim quad circle exhaust. Been that way for like 20 years.3/25/2013 9:10:42 AM |

The one with the pitiful battery is fairly "cheap." 3/26/2013 12:49:05 PM |

Exotic does not mean the same thing as expensive or fast, and the Tesla S is definitely "strikingly, excitingly, or mysteriously different or unusual" 3/26/2013 3:46:47 PM |
Noen All American 31346 Posts user info edit post |
The model S STARTS at 52,400. But if you get one with the long range battery and options, its closer to $80k.
And yes, its absolutely an exotic car (at least right now). My Lotus didn't cost even 50k, but it sure as shit is an exotic car.
I am actually hoping like hell that it won't be "exotic" for long, so I can get a good deal on a used one . Looks like Tesla is actually delivering ~1000 Model S cars per month. 3/26/2013 10:54:48 PM |

^even if they do the prices won't drop. Which is a shame - that car is so badass.

458
and
what does she do, or is she married to a rich guy
[/obligatory hate on rich people]
P.S.
IS THAT A SUITABLE CAR FOR HER?
i mean, did she get it cause she can? if so, she would have been better suited by an MB SL.
or is she into cars?

Got the number wrong, mostly because I will never have to worry about looking for one... Ever. I won't comment on her business, but her and my bro in law pick stuff out together. And it isn't always stuff that is $texas, I'm a little surprised about the Ferrari since they usually keep a low profile, but I'll sure as shit drive it! 4/12/2013 1:13:54 PM |

Spotted an orange Aventador cruising down Franklin Street in front of the Planetarium an hour ago. Is that what it took to keep Hairston committed for another year, or was CliffyB just checking out some new eats?
