    @GrateEggspectations - Beyond the pics is run time behind the wheel of each of his toys. 
    I presume he has added a carriage house styled garage to stable all his soon to be acquisitions??   =)
    His father-in-law, with whom he partners in business, has a standalone garage capable of accommodating a very good number of vehicles. The F-I-L collects. B-I-L has got room for two in his garage and as many if not more in the driveway, but if he gets all that he ordered, he might not have the space at his place. I could always offer that he store the GT3 here. 😂
    The GT3 is my dream car.  Just gorgeous in every single aspect.

    Illegal here to have tyres outside of the body line (i.e. arch flares needed). Is that OK, or does nobody enforce it?

    its really screwed up here, in newengland, massachusetts would flunk the no flares and the lift is too high, new hampshire would want a lower front bumper, maine you could probably unplug all the lights and pass if youre a local
    In AZ, you can make a quad street legal.  All you need is a working light and a horn.  For none Southwesterners, here is a quad.


    We can have a daylight only test on a motorbike and not need any lights. Also, if you have no indicators, then they don't have to work. Hand signals work fine.

    @GrateEggspectations - any of those rides merits garage space.  Just sayin!
    Good luck with your boarding offer.  Better to be lucky than good any day.
    Run time for the win!

    Is white the very worst color to buy a Ferrari in?  I think it's possible.  On the upside, it's a Ferrari.

    Disagree. Right amount of black accents it would look killer. Probably very few white ones made as compared to generic red.

    I agree, which suggests that it's the least popular choice.  

    I'm not saying I wouldn't drive it, just that if I could afford one, I would choose just about any other color.

    Marginally related to car colour-there are way too many gray SUV's on the road, at least around here.  Law enforcement drives the gray SUV and so do many others.  A real challenge when motoring at high speed.

    I agree.  At first I thought it was a new Corvette.  It may be genetic, but Rosso Corsa red is gorgeous.

    But very worst in Ferrari is better than very best in almost any other brand.

    they change it up around here, couple years ago it was unmarked mustangs on the interstate and they swarmed in packs.  theres no law enforcement on the interstate around me since covid though, i would say average speed is 85mph in the slow lane. accidents seem to be way down.  pretty scary watching 6 mustangs weaving quickly through traffic behind you not knowing if its you or the guy next to you they are going after

    What kind of speeds are you reaching, and is the Civic souped up or just stock?

    I’m guessing the speeds Frank drives are in the vicinity of maximum.

    @JohnInCarolina and @GrateEggspectations - My reflexes are where I cannot push the speed envelope.  I am lucky to occasionally barely double the posted open HWY speed limit any more but I need ideal conditions to play that game.  
    A movie quote by Harry Callahan: “A man has to know his limitations.”  No worries if that doesn't register.  Well before your respective time on the planet.

    Dirty Harry and the Deadpool.  Second movie I ever saw in the theaters.  First movie was Robocop.  I miss being six.  My mom always picked the best movies.

    I have lived a sheltered life as tonight is the first Grunt I have heard of or seen.  But today with all the fab and cut shops who knows what will appear next.  
    For others:
    "Sometimes you run across online vehicle listings which leave you speechless. This is such a time. A 1987 Chevy Grunt has appeared on Craigslist for Tucson, Arizona. If you’re acting like you know what a Grunt is, just stop. Nobody knows what this thing is."

    For sale locally, 1987 Chevrolet Grunt


    That has got to be one of the stranger looking vehicles I’ve seen.  It’s like a Pontiac Aztec on steroids, but I think I like it?

    Taking the youngest for a bike ride and the neighbor had 2 out of his 3 vipers out. The red one is on a lift and stores the green one under it. 



    Walking into that guy's garage must be like walking into a den of vipers....
     
    (not that there's anything wrong with that)
