You really don't like BMW do you Plan_D ?

That having been said the 2002 BMW M3 in the background is one SWEET ride, one that will outperform most in its class, and trust me I know.

Anyway just to make sure we don't get OT here, here are some more delicious pictures to drool over

Don't get me wrong, they're are excellent pieces of machinery and outstanding performers - but there's no soul in 'em. They're all same old BMWs...much respect to the M3 ... but that's where it ends. Gimme me a Ford GT-'TT' (1012 BHP, sex!)

Sorry in advance for the thread creep...

What's the difference between the Ford GT and the GT TT? Know a guy who owned one for a year, then had to give it back as that was part of the agreement. But I think it was a standard GT. 'Bout a year ago.

They're not as "Here I am" as some other cars I can agree with that, but I'm the type of guy who goes more after performance cars rather than show cars, if you know what I mean

The Ford GT is sweet though, and it performs well on the track according to what I've read. I've always liked the look of that car, low & wide with that sweet rear end

Anyway if you want a car with lots of soul then take this advice; Buy Italian! I mean what cars have more soul than these ?

The Ford GT has a 5.4 litre V8 (Eaton) supercharged engine. The Ford GT-TT has the supercharger removed and twin-turbos put in its place, and produces 1012 BHP instead of 550 BHP. And also has something like 800 foot-pounds of torque as opposed to 500.

One of the sexiest parts of a womans body (to a REAL man anyway) is that beautiful curvature that flows from below the delicate ribcage to just above the mons veneris. Why do these airhead narcissistic bimbos feel it is necessary to decorate their navels with jewelry and spoil that perfect gift from nature????

Stupid young person tricks always amuse me.
