Title: Brandt's new Car
Post by: 3Deep on January 26, 2018, 10:41:25 AM
Brandt found you a new car, it's only $250,000, it can go from 0-60 mph in 1.9 seconds 0-100 mph in 4.2 and has a top speed of 250 mph and it's all electric.   When saw this car I thought about you, no joke it really looks like a very nice car and I'd love to sit behind the wheel for a spend. 8)

Sorry, couldn't' help it.

Tesla does nothing for me, I need the sound of a engine. I did buy a New Mclaren a few months back, love this car!

You da man!!!! that's a nice car as well, hey I'm right there with you on hearing a sound of a motor....we rented an electric car from my son's job and it kind of freaked me out once I stopped at a traffic light, I thought the car had turned off LOL.

The sound is important enough to many that in some cars "resonance tubes" or "Induction sound tubes" are added to pipe the sound into the cabin! I started seeing these on '09 models like the Miata and Mustang

Hmm if you piped the the exhaust that could be pretty thrilling, and make you realize burning dino juice is pretty harmful  ;D

I know the BMW i8 actually uses sound through the cars speakers to make you think there is a powerful engine doing all the work but it's a tiny engine and electric motors on board.

My BMW M3 does this, I dont like it. I want to hear the motor, without anything fake or otherwise modified.

2005 Mini Cooper JCW
2007 Porsche Cayman S

I'd like to move the new JCW for a C63 AMG. Like I said, small change stuff over here. haha

Here is the M3, The wheels are almost cooper looking, they are brushed as well so they are really sick!

Hey car's don't define people, but we do have a habit lol. I think we are adding a Lambo this year.

That color is amazing, it's like a better and improved version of phoenix gold.

I love copper wheels, I thought about them for my new mini, but am not positive if the color will work.
