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

my DREAM

Re: What other toys do you have?
 

Nice play toy!.....

Re: What other toys do you have?
 

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...:(

Re: What other toys do you have?
 

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!

Re: What other toys do you have?
 

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...

Re: What other toys do you have?
 

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

Re: What other toys do you have?
 

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...

Re: What other toys do you have?
 

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.

Re: What other toys do you have?
 

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:

Re: What other toys do you have?
 

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

Good choice.

Re: What other toys do you have?
 

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!

Re: What other toys do you have?
 

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!

Re: What other toys do you have?
 

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.

Re: What other toys do you have?
 

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

Re: What other toys do you have?
 

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.

Re: What other toys do you have?
 

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...

Re: What other toys do you have?
 

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...)

When the pony got his balls back! Man...THAT takes me back. 5.0s were so SWEET!

I learned how to drive a stick in my buddies orange '86; that car would sh!t and git.

Re: What other toys do you have?
 

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.

Re: What other toys do you have?
 

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....

Re: What other toys do you have?
 

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

Re: What other toys do you have?
 

those wheels look great on that truck. is that a F350?

Re: What other toys do you have?
 

Yes '07 350

Re: What other toys do you have?
 

:iagree: It does look great. They look huge, and there's 6 of them, I bet that wasn't cheap...

Re: What other toys do you have?

Re: What other toys do you have?
 

Here is the updated pic with the 2008 H2, 2012 Centennial Corvette Convertible, and the 2012 Mini Convertible. Large, medium and small... har har…

Dreary background every shot... Is the sky ever blue here?!

Re: What other toys do you have?
 

I like the flat black racing stripes on the vette! Not sure I've seen that before.

Re: What other toys do you have?
 

pretty sick rides there man. your hummer stance is perfect.

Re: What other toys do you have?
 

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...

Re: What other toys do you have?
 

Thanks!... By stance, do you mean the right tire to fender combination?
