LOL...

I think some of these sound a little too exotic to believe. How much would the FTO's go for?

My fun car: Opel Calibra Turbo 4x4 2.0i 16V (engine tuned to approx. 315 hp with big intercooler, all hoses, adjustable boost etc etc) with Steinmetz ST1 wheels (Steinmetz is the same company than AC Schnitzer), DTM front spoiler, lots of other mods and more coming. So far 14.1 s on 1/4 mile, but should go much faster. 0-100 km/h (0-62 mph) less than 5 sec, top speed 270 km/h (167 mph):



Short video from a race track

At the dragstrip:


My daily driver: Opel Vectra GT 16V (150 hp, standard, 16.03 s 1/4 mile) Lots of chassis mods, including H&R linear racing suspension, very fast on curves. 215/40R16 wheels on TSW rims.




I have built 1:43 models of both cars from diecast models.

I should post my car too. The picture is on the site of a friend of mine. I can't post more pictures (either from caravans, cars or anything else).
