Lightbulb I'm so cutting edge!

:right: I finally got my pics scanned from the L.A. Auto show last January (2001.) I'm posting them all here instead of finding a place for each in their forums...

The Z show car:


The Viper concept show car:


The Porsche Carrera GT: (I hope they make this one! )


A "Porsche Driving Experience" car:


The good ol' NSX:


And the showcase; Jaguar roadsters... I didn't keep track of which was which, so name 'em if you know 'em!






(I know this one isn't really a roadster, but oh well...)


I promise to get next year's pics up much quicker! :o

Those are some huge brakes what are they, 16in? Doesn't the 360 have two calipers in the rear?

Some may know this but, Ford is experimenting with a disc brake and a 360 Degree caliper, so It looks like one giant caliper surrounding the no-longer visible disc, I don't know wether or not it enhances it too much or not, probably less heat though.
