I saw this sweet C5 vette with a trailer hitch this afternoon.

How does this work? Do I get a half point for that?

^^^^It's a concept from the Li-Ion company, which is based in Las Vegas and has an office in Mooresville. Is that photo recent, b/c I'm pretty sure they went out of business a few months ago.

Just about every car sold can safely tow up to 1000lbs, so you'll see lots of small sports cars with trailer hitches for small trailers carrying wheels/tires to track events (as illustrated above). Miatas, S2000s, 350Zs, Corvettes, etc all do this. Not terribly mind blowing really....now the Smart FourTwo I saw with a trailer hitch, that had me scratching my head.

^^^^ good call! The logo was actually in the corner of the picture, but it was still not an easy one to guess. This photo was taken at the DC Auto show this past February. The guy sounded like the company was on track with the production, said the operations are out of NC, that's why I figured someone here may have sen it before. The website is still active. It looked a bit like a kit car in person, I did not see the refinement present in that cars it was supposed to compete with. But it was still probably the hottest electric ride out at the show (which was really lackluster this year i thought)

^^^ Haha I also just noticed that the hood ormanment does seem to have a ram on it.

I used to know their PR director. She said they were going out of business and that was mid February.

So who knows

850s are awesome but they have their probs ... i was wondering about an s62 swapped 840 the other day... seems like it should be easy but i don't know bimmer engine mounts too well.


Yeah first sat. of every month in brier creek shopping center by the vacant restaurant in the borders parking lot there are usually a min of 3 458s and they're sooo sexy but... the panteras and nobles that randomly show up are more exciting for me.

I hated the styling before I saw it in person. It is a sharp looking car in motion, but I still think pics make it look .

Saw an f430 (2005-ish?) while I was visiting my parents in a tiny little suburb of cleveland -- when i mentioned it to my dad, he mentioned it was the neighbor's who lives about 2-3 doors down. While it's a nice neighborhood, it's nowhere near ferrari nice.

Also, not exotic, but I saw my first a7 on the road. I really like the taillights at night.
