33 Stradale. 05.04.11

Alfa Romeo T33/2 Stradale. 18 cars ever made, the 33 Stradale is probably my all time dream car. Dry-sump 1,995 cc V8. rev-limit of 10000 rpm. 230 bhp (172 kW) at 8800 rpm in road trim and 270 bhp (200 kW) in race trim.

But the most important factor of all, it’s one of the most beautiful cars things ever made. enjoy.

It was good to see the Fiat 500 show up, the owner is making a lot of custom pieces for the 500′s through his tuning company ‘Euro Tuning Parts’. Including a supercharger for those of you not willing to wait for the Abarth and wanting a more cost effective solution.

McLaren MP4-12C 14.03.11

Hit up cars and coffee in Irvine last Saturday to take a look at the new McLaren MP4-12C. McLaren are putting their new dealership in Newport Beach so it was a great way for them to meet the potential clients. I’m really impressed with the car so far, all the things I have read about it make it seem like quite a game changer. O and it sounded savage!

They also had the bare chassis there next to the car to show of the carbon monocoque and epic engine.

Red 2012 GTR. 11.03.11

Had the opportunity to see another new 2012 GTR last night, this time a red one. One of the rarest colors on the GTR for sure, and defiantly a head turner.

*Update* After letting my good friend Alex know about the car, he has subsequently picked it up. Can’t wait to get some proper pictures of it!
