Great...now you've upset TN.
*WARNING: PIC INTENSIVE POST*
So the gal and I were down in Orlando visiting a buddy of ours last weekend, and Sunday we were all a bit hungover so we decided to go get some food. We decided to go to Winter Park Village which is a pretty ritzy area, a lot of high-dollar stuff down there (high-end fashion stores, fine dining, nice cars, etc.) so I brought the camera and got some shots off.
These are available in high-res on my Flickr. Feel free to comment on my Flickr and on here if you'd like. They're nothing too special so take it easy on me. Little to no editing on these.
enjoy.

Way ahead of ya.
Cool shots man. I especially liked the barber pole and "peek a boo".
rep given.
Oh man, you have no idea. It was SO clean. The pics don't do it justice.
Thanks!Cool shots man. I especially liked the barber pole and "peek a boo".
That's NOT what I meant!
Ahh... I couldn't tell that it was a beaver. Good one!Common man!?! Shaved beaver...
Saw one on the way to work this morning. Kinda funny after reading a review in the WSJ about how silly they were and how nobody would buy one.
70k is keeping me from buying one, that's it.
Yes, the market is slim, but the driving reviews have been incredible. It's a marketing thing more than anything, but I would rock one over a R/T Magnum in a heartbeat.
<edit> But I have loved the CTS-V since it first came out, so the wagon isn't a stretch for me.
Was up at GM's Milford proving grounds last week for a meeting and I saw more CTS, CTS-V and wagons in the parking lot than any other car. And that there is pick-up country. GM employees sure dig them.
I've been working with GM for the past 15 years and it has always reminded me of the post office, purposefully slow disinterested and angry employees. I'm only dealing with the R&D engineers but things are refreshingly different. They all seemed very stoked about what they are doing and the future of the company. Wouldn't suprise me if GM came out with some more cool **** in the next few years. Unfortunately Americans only like cheap beige crap so it will only succeed in Europe.
I would say that the American consumer is told and believes what their are told and that's what sells.
The less a person watches TV ads and looks at what interests them, the more the purchases change.
I think Americans are a lot more independently boring than you give us credit for.
Just look at the best selling cars in the states, Corollas, Camries, mini-vans generic SUVs and pickup trucks. Pretty much defines mediocre, boring with a splash of homophobia.

The answer to all of the above is TREE FITTY!
I'll post the build thread on my '66 Chevy truck when it's all done. I should have my seats this week and I can match my interior.
<hint> Seats are tan leather from a 2007 XLR.
while on the subject of cars, I'm hopefully going to build one of these in the next couple years
S2000? meh.
i would have put that engine in something else

S2ks are fantastic with a few upgrades, coilovers, wider wheels/tires, (functional) spoiler. I've done a few track days in one and they handle great, just a little down on power. My other thought was to do a RX7 with an LS1 but I love the 2jz motor so I'll probably end up doing something with that.

I miss mine.
RX7's w/ a LS1 or LT1 are cool and all but as much as i hate to admit it, the Wankel rotaries are insane when they get up to the super high RPM's.
why not get a Supra with the 2JZ? you can probably get them cheaper than a S2000. or are you looking for a more track oriented car?
I've already had a Wankle blow on me and they are so expensive to get worked on and you have to take them to an expert. I do love Supras but they aren't the best basis for a track car. I'm looking to build a 80% track 20% street car.
