What other toys do you have?

[PaHumBug]

We can all agree that we have great tastes in vehicles, what else do you have? I've seen some cool cars (Roush, 5thGen). Any bikers on here? Here is my fair-weather baby; Last weekend I took a ride to Kinzua Resevoir in the Allegheny Nat'l Forest, beatiful place with lots of twisties, the picture doesn't do the fall colors justice.

Beautiful!! I'm such a Porsche fan, only thing I would do is change the wheels IMO ;) BUT it's not my vehicle..Bet it drives great. The mid engine is truly awesome :jump:

[2010_5thgen]

next car...porsche...for sure. love your cayman. white is the way to go too. looks awesome.:clapping:

[charles06]

Thanks for the compliments. The wheels tend to look better in person, but I didn't get them for looks as much as performance. They weigh a few pounds less than stock at each corner. Plus, I found them right down the street from me...kind of ramdom.

And, yes, the car handles amazingly. I need to hit the track at some point, but I don't really want to beat on the tires, brakes, etc. I have enough expenses right now.

[2010_5thgen]

That cars meant to handle the track amazingly.....that wouldn't be beating on it lol. Its amazing what a good set of forged wheels will do for a car. My wheels weigh like 5lbs a piece, less than stock.

[PaHumBug]

I knew there would be some cool toys around here...

Charles is that a Rally Fighter in your sig pic? Do you have one of those??? I got to sit in one once, those things are badass.

Here are some more of mine; The blue one I built, and still have, but it needs a new engine. The yellow one I rebuilt and sold a couple years ago.

[atomicgoofball]

wow you guys sure have some great taste in toys!!

That porsche is SEXXAAAY!

I do not own a Rally Fighter, but would love to some day. And I'm not worried too much about breaking the Porsche, just don't want all the expenses that come with tracking. Plus, I work most weekends.

Thanks again for all the compliments!

Very nice! It was a sad day when I sold my 74 Cessna 210 that I had owned since new, but I just didn't need it anymore.

Hi this is a older picture when i drove it on the street, wish i had your hanger as i am running out of room at my shop.

[HummerJim]

Beautiful Bonanza and the 210 was always one of my favorites!! I also had a 1966 Piper Comanche 260 that I loved to fly and just recently sold, and learned some important lessons from it. At 65 hours a year I couldn't justify the ownership costs. If it flys, floats, or fu**s, rent it! Also I found out that joint ownership in anything, be it a plane or vacation home, can ruin the best of friendships.

Dude, we went on a cruise to Costa Rica, Panama and Mexico this summer. While we were in Panama, we had to buy a 3 piece luggage set just to bring back her shoes...

When we came back from Hawaii one year, we had to buy a 5 piece to bring it back...

Of course, it was filled with SHOES!!!!

Mark
They do have premature engine failures, mostly related to oil burning. It mostly affected 99 models. Thats why I searched and was patient until an 01 fell into my hands. Too bad Isuzu had major defects with most of their vehicles because at the time I thought they were cutting edge when it came to some design cues and ideas. It also does not hurt that it was designed by Shiro Nakamura.

[HummerJim]

OMG - I had a '99 Vehicross too! I loved it and it did great in the mud. Those were the ATS tires that did OK on highway and mud, the downside the VX was that the ride was like being in a tank. I never had to take it back to the dealer for anything and nothing ever broke on it.

With the back problems I was having at the time and it's short wheel base with the stiff ride and being 6 ft 5 it was a challenge getting in and out of with the back. It's one of the many cars I regret selling. I took the back seat out and it was a great two seater for hauling things around. The H3 had a much better ride and the H2 has a great ride and oodles of headroom for my 6 ft 5 frame!

Yup, I agree. I'm 6-3 and its barely enough headroom for me. But I love the truck so much that I don't care. I'm gonna eventually throw some better tires on it and put some new shocks and struts to see if that improves the ride. Like they say, it rides like a bus. In the VX's case its actually true. I'm just hoping I can make her last 50 more years or until i'm gone. I'm coating the cladding with 303 Aerospace almost monthly. :excited:

The only downfall with those cars was the motor and lack of power. But they are pretty light. They make superchargers for them but not sure how well the motor would hold up

She is a very nice toy... But, whats with the hummer pics Ben86? The H6 I can understand that post, but the other one should be on the babe thread, this is for OTHER toys...:(

[BUNNY15]

So I just had the dash of the DEUCE custom painted to match, I think it came out well. I included some pics of my Seadoo jet skis. Guess it doesn't hurt to own an Xtreme Vehicle Rental company. Also my 2002 Yamaha Roadstar Warrior XV 1700. I will have to load pics of my ATVs later when I get some. Thanks!!

MY DREAM!

[s_c5519]

I don't have an updated pic, but I just replaced the ZR1 for a Corvette GS triple black Centennial Convertible. It has the black rims too, nice matchup...

http://i931.photobucket.com/albums/ad157/john5519/IMG_0040-1.jpg

[2010_5thgen]

What?! Why did you get rid of the Zr1? And for a grand sport? Not even a z06?! Please explain.

[s_c5519]

What?! Why did you get rid of the Zr1? And for a grand sport? Not even a z06?! Please explain.

We actually wanted a convertible, and an automatic,.. I forgot how much I hate to shift. The ZR1 was going to be my daily driver too, so that didn't help. I actually just sold the Mini Cooper like an hour ago, so the GS will be the DD now.

Also there's only the wife and I, and three cars is just too much. The H2 wasn't getting any use! It's really tough though to get back into the H2 after you have been bolting around in the Mini go cart!! That really is the funnest car we have ever driven...

[2010_5thgen]

Didnt you just get the mini too? Man you go through cars quick don't you? Lol. I have 4 cars between just me and my wife and I want more! Maybe a Porsche.

[s_c5519]

ya only had 650 miles on the Mini. I am having my third midlife crisis... Plus it's a addiction too, but at least I am not drugging, drinking, gambling or sexing (is that a word?)... hmmm come to think of it, no wonder I'm depressed! :crying:

I?d take either... the Grand Sport is GORGEOUS!

Good choice.

[2010_5thgen]

Grand sport is gorgeous...... Because its based off a z06. I don't know how anyone could buy a base corvette, knowing that the grands port exist. Wider fenders, wheels, brakes..... All the z06 goodies on the base corvette?....best pick. Another vette I love.... Z06 carbon. All the zr1 goodies on a z06!

[HummerMann]

Very nice stable of cars! Since our daughters and sons have left to go out on their own we still have the five car garage and I convinced my wife to clear her junk out of one of the slips to make room for a fun weekender, we just had to keep it filled!:) You can't have too many cars!

[2010_5thgen]

I agree. I told my wife I wanted to buy another car and she said why do you want so many cars? Lol. I don't know why. I just like them. But I need more room. Goal is: build new house next spring, with LARGE garage! I'm pretty excited.

I agree, the base is very bland looking. Someone buying that would just strictly be a cheap thing...

In the Vette forums, looks like the Z06 people have been pissed since the inception of the GS since it stole the wider body and stuff from the Z06 for like $40 grand less or something...

I love the carbon too. I just ordered the carbon fiber front splitter and the side skirts to steal a bit off the ZR1 look too! Should piss some people off in the ZR1 forum now too... lol

[2010_5thgen]

Those z06 guys have nothing to be bitching about. That z06 is a bad car. Just because the gs got some styling cues, doesn't mean jack. The mmotor, suspension is what makes that car a supercar. I've seen videos of the z06 smoking gallardos and ferarris all day.

Thanks Hummer Mann... I am just very neurotic about things. I can handle two cars but when it gets to more, the extra insurance, registrations, inspections, washings etc.. start getting to me. Plus the thought of depreciation on three now instead of two, etc...

Plus the salt on the ground here, and I find I am storing them more than driving. All my friends think I'm nuts for not driving the H2 in the winter. I have 15k miles on it and you know how the bottoms of them get. So I finally said screw it and been driving the new Vette now, salt and all,,, but I do have to admit, it's still killing me...

[OrangeCrush]

I'm with you guys... IMO, the Z06 is the BEST bang for the buck bar none. Yes, there may be faster or better handling but usually at 3-4 times the cost.

I wouldn't bat an eye at owning one. Having said that, I like GS because I like convertibles. Throw a supercharger on a GS and you've got a better than average performing car with all the looks and convertible to boot. (no pun intended...)

No way would my camaro ever see the roads in the wintertime...especially with salt. Now that we've had some rain, most of the roads are cleared.my dad gets his vette out random days in the winter. As long as there's no snow on the ground. But his cars white. Mines black. He has swirls out the wazoo on his but you cant see because of the white. I migh get it out this week. I am taking my hummer this spring, to get the whole bottom undercoated. Starting to get some rust that i want to put a stop to it.

If you don't already know, check out POR15 (red can, not the spray). Did it to one of my past H2's, it came out fantastic. We used a brush, took a while to do though, and it has a pretty strong odor, but imo it's the best stuff out there. Can't sledgehammer it off.... It's a 3 or 4 step process though...

ok, sorry don't want to get too off topic here....

[SUT-UP]

OK back onto topic I guess. I do love tangents though. Had some Tranny issues and AAA is overrated.

Yes '07 350

ya I am not a fan of stripes but I like those too. It's part of the 100th Anniversary Centennial Edition package. The paint has a ton of metallic in it too, you can't see it too much til it hits the light. It's very different, nice in person...

My body shop does a lot of paintwork for Rick Hendrick. We just finished a ?67 Corvette (20K for just a paint job.. they put it back together)

Anyway, while I was looking at a few of their cars, they showed me a new Camaro that GM gave Hendricks to build for them. It was a base model, 6cyl with the only options being floor mats.

4 months later, it?s a supercharged LS-9 with ZL-1 body parts, Ford 9? (one that I?ve never seen before) and the car ran 9.30 in the quarter in STREET DOT tires.

Not bad for a car you can daily drive...

Mark

[2010_5thgen]

Wow. Got any pictures?

[OrangeCrush]

Wow. Got any pictures?


I?ve been to his personal museum and taken a bunch of pics of the cars he has. (I?d like to post pics but it would be vocational suicide)

We?ve recently finished a ?63 split window, (2) 67 Corvettes (have a third one in the shop now) and (2) ?67 Chevelles.

Obviously he has a unique relationship with GM and it?s amazing what his team can build. They can manufacture anything on site. (from billet to carbon fiber on the spot)

I?ll ask if they mind me taking a pic of that particular camaro.

Have you ever drove the older boxsters? Is it better driver than the old ones? I'm guessing it is. They lengthened it and I think it's wider too. Car looks great. I'm jelious. I want a Porsche so bad but a new house is on my list first. I'd like one of those new 991 Carreras

Driving the new Porsche compared to the older style is much like driving a C6 compared to a C5 to a C4 Corvette.

Obviously more powerful, better handling and definitely smoother. I can't explain how smooth this car is in the turns.

It's only 315HP which is not overly exciting but with a 4.8 0-60 and a top speed of 174mph, it'll get for an aspirated 6 cyl.

I've always wanted a Porsche because to me, it's a driver's car built by drivers. It's ergonomically correct, it's smooth, everything fits, the clutch is fantastic.... and since I wanted a convertible, that left me with either spending 140-160K for a 911 convertible or 80K for a Boxster. I've always liked everything about a Boxster but the body style. It was entirely too feminine for me. (no offense to those that have one)

Anyway, love the car, can't wait to hit the track with it.

LOL!!! Says the guy who immediately put a keg in the trunk of his Porsche...AND stopped to take a picture! TOO FUNNY!

It's pretty though...I'm not one for foreign cars, but it does look nice for a Boxster. They definitely 'manned them up.'

Love the z06! Looks great. Interior look nice too. Are those Forgeline wheels on there?

I agree, the Z06 looks fantastic... the interior however... let's just say that it's not my cup of tea. (quilted, harley skulls, carbon fiber, leather, suede, looks like he couldn't make up his mind in what direction/theme he wanted to take his car towards)

The BMW is tastefully done, I love the supercharger and the interior looks great... nice job!!

I'll bet it's a blast to drive.

That's not a Harley skull. It's jake! Hes the corvette racing "mascot".

LOL, sorry...my bad. Okay, I don't like Jake and his carbon fibre and 50's quilted look..lol.

The car however is hot as shiet. Perfect stance, beaaautiful color. But hey, it's not my car, he's the only one that needs to like it.


Mark

[s_c5519]

Yeah...the view is great and the cars are super-sweet.

...but I'm left wondering what the fuk you do for living. Every time you post a picture of that driveway there's another hot-a55 vehicle sittin' on the blacktop. LOL! Are you running a chop-shop?

Sorry, haven't been on in a while... Well, the wife and I used to live in Hollywood, and we were both, I guess you can call us paparazzi :shhh:

We did it for aobut 12 years and retired and moved to NH about 4 years ago, before it got very crazy there like is it now. There was no chasing celebs in cars back then, most of our work was clubs, restaraunts, and some red carpet. The red carpets don't pay squat... there literally was no competition back then and it paid crazy crazy money because of exclusive shots, meaning I would be the only one with the shot and the mags would bid on them like crazy...

I know a lot of people have a problem with that line of work, but say what you will, that is my lil toy $ secret:)

Hey man, like it or not, everyone needs to make a living... you still have some nice toys.

[HummerMann]

I had a 1985 and 1989 Porsche 911 and loved everything about them except the air conditioning on the older 911s left a lot to be desired. You get an incredible feel for the road in a Porsche that is unique. The '89 was a turbo and spent a few days in the shop under warranty getting the turbo issue ironed out that they had with the 88 and 89 models. As far as a driver's car, they're right with the BMW M5 in my opinion, but the new M5s have gotten too big and don't compare to the older E39s. My favorite toy is my 2004 Vortech supercharged Z06 with the Bassani short tube headers and Borla exhaust. With 588 RWHP it is more car than I will ever need. It is much more comfortable than my old Viper and I can actually do a road trip in the Corvette and be comfortable in it. With the lack of sound proofing and insulation in the Z06 I do get some blower whine from it. It's also getting harder to find the thin glass they used on the C5 Z06 for windshield and sides. I have a spare windshield I keep at the shop just in case. I just got home last night from Corvettes at Carlisle and the C5 drove like a dream. With all that said, I will always have a soft spot for German engineering and the Porsches.

I love Porsches and Corvettes too! There's something I've also always loved about German engineering. My Hummer has become my daily driver but I also have kept my 2002 BMW M5 and agree that the new ones have gotten too big. It's the longest I've ever kept a car. These are my garage queens. They are solid investments - like a 401k! You can't take it with you and I find myself going out in the garage and just sitting in them. I love your Porsche, Mark. Every German car should come with a keg of beer, just like some Italian car dealers give you a case of wine with the sale!

Jim,

I want to see those pics close up. Got any more pics? Those are some hot cars. This is my first P car and I've always wanted one but I can't afford $160K on a 911 which means my only choice for a convertible was a boxster.

The boxster is a great car, reliable, handles well, fun to drive, blah, blah, blah but at the end of the day, it looks like an overgrown Miata.

When the new 981 came out, I was sold. So far I love it... can't wait to hit the track with it.

Post some pics or send them to my email. orangecrush03@gmail.com

Thanks,

Mark

and did I actually have a Chevy Volt in the garage! wft was I thinking?

http://i1249.photobucket.com/albums/hh501/s_c5519/IMG_0101.jpg

I was just also thinking too. I've been through a lot of cars but the one that's most consistent is the Hummer. Weird, it's always the least one I drive. but the one I like the most. It's really kinda nice even just seeing it sitting in the garage...

[markkiemark]

Thanks for the response. It may not be your cup of tea but I feel it is very well put together. A combination of leather and suede is commonly used on interiors. The quilted piece is a hand sewn leather diamond stitch drape for the sides of the console and the skulls are the Jake Skulls for Corvette Racing. Carbon Fiber is also used quite often but I didn't want to go with the traditional piano black look, that's why it's silver carbon fiber to change it up a bit. And yes, the M is a blast to drive, like a go cart. Thanks Again!!!

No...just a regular turbo; but I put the GMPD LNF Turbo upgrade package, catback and CAI on it. It was supposed to push 290hp with just the LNF, so I figure I prolly got another 10 out of the exhaust and CAI.

It's not every day that you get 300hps out of a 2.0 liter...

I always said that if I had to buy a foreign car it would be a Subaru WRX. They sound so sweet for a 4 banger...and the AWD; well, that just seals the deal in my book.

I still wish we had the Eagles though...they were in that domestic niche market that Subaru eventually gobbled up...

Doing pretty good Mark and am glad to hear you are hanging onto the H2. It has to be the best conversion out there and ya gotta be proud of it cause it is a one of a kind and was done right.

Take care Bud, Ed

Mark the truck and trailer are awesome... Great rig! Glad to see your keeping the deuce for now. I saw it on eBay for a while... Great looking ride. i had been curious what happened with your auction after the last guy couldn't get the money when it came time. Not selling is probably a blessing in disguise, you would have missed it, and it would be so expensive to replace when you realized you wanted another.

I had it on ebay 4 times. It was won for $54 but the guy couldn't get a loan (duh)

The second time, a guy did the paperwork after the auction for $60K but lived in the Cayman Islands. He had his loan work approved but the bank wouldn't release the check since the vehicle was not in his country even though we were going through an escrow company.

The last two times it never hit reserve.

I'd like to sell it still since I don't want to make payments on the dually but it's no big deal, if it sells, it does, if it doesn't, no harm.

I do have it going to Lowe's Motor Speedway. Though it didn't hit reserve, it pulled 49 and 50K the two times it ran before.

We'll see.....
