Heh. I bet an oil change on that thing runs more than most people's car payments.

Still quite amazing to see a ROAD CAR split in two...even if it is just an F1 car for the street 🙂

BTW, I saw an Aston Martin DB9 today in Cary, NC.

Admit it, you pulled to the side of the road and rubbed one out after you saw that, didnt you?

LOL, I saw one of those in the Walmart parking lot in Cary, NC last month. First of all, I was :shocked: b/c it was a Continental GT. Then I was :shocked: b/c it was in a Walmart parking lot 😀

Rich folks around here all shop at Harris Teeter. And Walmart does NOT have he best prices on DVD's. Not by a longshot

When I was working in AZ, somebody near my parking stall switched between a 760iL or a Z8 depending on the weather. That must be rough! 😛
 
That's a pretty cool picture. What does it mean, in layman's terms, when they talked abou the engine being a stressed member?

I've never seen any really nice cars in a Walmart parking lot. I doubt the CEO of the company I work for has ever stepped foot in a Walmart. He lives in Rancho Santa Fe and last I checked there were no Walmarts up there.

It means the engine suports the car, it's a structural member. It's part of the "frame" of the car. Think "load bearing wall" in terms of a house.
