Man, forget the mid-engined Corvette, I want that test mule!

 

Looks like they strapped the holden UTE body on their frame. Gonna be sweet!

Stole this link from Torspd's build thread Quad freakn turbos!!!!

I'm still trying to figure out how he got it all to fit in there...

Also, I spent the past few weeks in Chile, South America. I saw so many D4D Hilux's. They are a bit noisy but that TURBO!!! Every small truck was a turbo diesel there, was fun to see

New Ford Raptor..

EB is supposed to surpass 411 hp, going to be 6" wider with a 10 speed transmission.

 

cant wait to see the numbers on hp and tq. So tempted to drop the taco to pick it up, looks mean as fuuu

 

Al construction, wider, boosted v6 option,

Gonna keep my taco though

 

Look at those LCAs! They claim bigger shocks and more travel. Real curious what the numbers are.

 

New Ford GT

Still a kraptor though. I bet the frame is still c channel and bends at the slightest bump haha

 

That rear end of the new gt looks LaFerrari-ish

I get what they were going for with the fat rear end and narrow front end to match the original 40 but the way they combined the front and rear is not pleasing to my eye. Nice car but not my fav.

 

I agree with ben. Looks great sometimes..not some much others.

Also, can't believe no one has posted the new tacoma in here.

I don't like it either..lol

 

That's why I didn't post it lol. not a big fan.

It's turning into a ford interior



From the 2016 thread.

 

I can say i really dislike the interior

 

Waaaaay better then what the GM twins has as a interior

 

Most if not all bent frames were the result of owners thinking they owned a trophy truck.

It has an all new steel frame.

 

Forrester?

 

2015 wrx? Looks nicer than my 13's. The 13 was seriously straight plastic and would bend if you looked at it wrong.

 

apparently every truck is now gonna have the model/manufacturer name in the grill

 

lol

 

Alright Ben. Is the Fiesta still in the running for your DD? If you're going to drive your truck when there is snow or bad weather then why would awd matter? I'm pretty sure the fun factor would be better with the fiesta than the brz... Creature comforts probably not, but "for me" that stuff never really mattered as long as the car had the basic important stuff which the fiesta does. Based on the way my wifes fiesta drives, i'm still seriously considering trading it in for the st some day.

Stage 3 cobb pluss 100 octane tune... glad to know this motor is handling lots of abuse well!
