Mmmmm I have $400k to spend on a car and my choice is....Ford or Lambourgini. Which one should I pick?
For me there’s no choice. I’m gonna pick the Lambourgini and all the cache that comes with it.
OK, Ford.....this is my final offer.
The Yugo. Thirty seven bucks. A pair of used snow tires. A bag of apples.
I’d like it in red, please.

So Bugatti can’t afford to hide the windshield wipers so they don’t rip off at top speed?
If you’re not careful it might fly.
As long as you realize that: at top speed, the life of the tires on that car, is rated in minutes.
Sadly, O'Reilly Auto Parts only stocks Flux Capacitors that fit DeLoreans.
Mr. Fusion upgrade kits ( Part #121GMF) are also available.
hehe
I think the wipers actually function as little spoiler wings.
Sweet...great post!
I had so many old demolition bricks in the bed of my Chevy truck once that it almost got on its hind legs and walked.
The front tires managed to stay on the ground.
Well jeez look at the car and how theyspare no expense at aerodynamics and cutting drag down. Then look at the efing ugly windshield wipers off a modelt ford.
It’s not about market per sé, it about racing. Shelby didn’t build his cars for the market, only to satisfy the rules for the class of racing.
You know, the original GT-40 kicking Ferarri’s butt at Le Mans? That’s what it was about.
Besides, their engineers are pushing the state of the art for Ford. It does tend to trickle down into, one way or the other, the everyday drivers.
Every once an a while, you gotta push back the edge of that envelope, regardless of your business.
Anyone spending $2.5MM on a car capable of 267 MPH is not concerned with the costs tire replacement...
Porshe Cayman GTS
Much more practical and can do 175mph, mid engine and gets 30mpg highway.
I can work with that;)
Lol!
Reminds me of the time we packed a washer in the back on my dad’s 74 land cruiser only my dad did tell me that the back air shocks were deflated. We did okay for the first 30 miles until we hit an icy patch on an over pass on the highway. We did a full 360. I did 45 mph in the right lane the rest of the trip into town.
LOL! I knew O reilly had one up on pep boys..
The last Veyron has been built, don’t hold your breath.
It might make it 15 feet into my driveway....then put the Jeep in 4 low and drag it the rest of the way;-)
It is disappointing that my conservative brethren have taken to using progressive phrases.
