You're stuck in the past, EA. Not that I'm not g.


These fukn Veyrons, SSCs look like cigars with wheels.

Look at the Lambos. They look like Transformers: push a button, and it
unfolds into an Intergalactic Dump Truck.

I wanna '68 fastback hemi 'Cuda that Transforms by raising to 10" ground
clearance so I can take it off road while deer hunting.

Why don't you just get a halftrack and be done with it? Sports Car
Graphic, 40 years or so ago, proposed one to be made by Ferrari. g

BTW, you probably would have gotten along with the Citroen DS19.

You just pushed a button and the sucker jacked up 10 inches on all
four wheels.

However, with all those curves, it was a bitch finding a place to lash
a deer, without it sliding off.

The SM had enough horizontal space for a moose.

But would it rise up on its suspension, like the DS?

BTW, I saw one of those SMs in Europe, and it attracted a lot of
attention. It was quite impressive. Then I saw another one in New
York, among a gaggle of other luxo-cars, and it looked less so. I
guess it looked best when parked next to a Renault R4....
