My Life is Complete.



Star of the Show: 2004 Porsche Carrera GT.

"It isn't styled with the verve or the passion of a Ferrari or a Lamborghini. Its form, following function in every piece, every detail, is as precise and as perfect as Germany's rail timetable." @jeremyclarkson1 on Top Gear, talking about the Porsche Carrera GT.

That particular review came out almost 20 years ago, and it was one of the first Top Gear episodes I've watched. Left quite an impression on me back in 2004, and it still does now. The CGT is quite simply stunning.

Piss Off, Challenger. The 'Cuda is Here.


Star of the Show: @604streetlegit's 1970 Plymouth Barracuda... Sort of. 

I don't often get to see drag strip monsters like this, but this "Green Goblin" can pretty much only be described as "impressive", because, well, it is.

ANFSCD: CMB's MCW Super Metrobus at the Sydney Bus Museum


And now for something completely different: Apparently the China Motor Bus ML1 is getting a workout today @sydneybusmuseum, so this is as good a time as any to talk about one of my favourite buses of all time: the MCW Metrobus, or more specifically, this "Super" Metrobus.
