Yeah. That's a Porsche Carrera GT (3rd pic, silver car). There's only 1200 or so of those on the planet.

I friend of mine that works in a Porsche dealership told me about one of his customers that lives close to my work and has some nice collection of cars(80+ cars) .

he keeps the (6)daily drives at his house and the rest are in warehouse in PA.

SO I asked him next time he will be in south Jersey maybe we can meet up with this gentleman

Here is what i saw when i pull to the driveway

That man wouldn't happen to be a brain surgeon in Philly, would he?

I don't drive my car too much during the summer, but from April-November you will see me zipping around on this:

Nice! I've always wanted a bike, just too damned afraid of other drivers to get one.

Yeah, a lot of people say that. You must be cautious and aware of other drivers all the time, but as long as you ride with a good head on your shoulders, you should be fine. Not saying stupid accidents don't happen, because they do, but little things like giving yourself extra room between cars and "reading drivers' minds'", if you will, help in reducing an accident. Reading drivers' minds' is what I refer to being able to see that minivan soccer mom 100yds ahead slowly pulling out of a sidestreet and by the time the three cars in front of you pass her, she has already edged out enough for her front bumper to be in your lane. With this example, slowing down and passing her at a lower MPH will make it easier for you to slam on your brakes if she does pull out in front of you. If she doesn't pull out, then you ride on and say "phewww". Too many people will see that minivan edging out and just not care, or say screw it, or maybe not even SEE the minivan, and the next thing you know they end up in her rear seat because they were doing 75mph in a 40mph zone and did not have the time, nor amount of space to brake efficiently and avoid the accident.

 

It also depends on the type of rider you are. If you're one of 'those' who speed in and out of cars, tailgate, race people, etc, you're chance of getting into an accident tremendously increases.

 

My advice, if you ever look into one take your time. Start with a small bike (250cc or a 500cc), buy good gear (helmet, armored jacket, gloves, boots for starters) and practice practice practice. Take the NJ MSF course and learn the basics, then practice the basics out on the road. The more you ride, the better rider you will become (as long as you're not practicing bad habits).

Although I do like to have fun, I know when it's necessary to be safe. Riding a motorcycle isn't something I would abuse. Thanks for all the info. Although I'm still tempted, I just don't know if it's for me. I would like to get a sport bike, but I don't know if my back could handle it for any length of time.

As suggested, a Motorcycle safety course is a very good idea and even for riders that have some time under there belts I would suggest to take it as a refresher. Plus it does get you a discount on your insurance.

 

One more thing, there is the post 1 year to 2 year rider syndrome, this is a condition when you think your good and nothing can hurt you, well let me tell you, and I have been riding for 27 going on 28 years just on street bikes and more years before that on off road bikes and while I can ride a bike, I know I can get hurt at any time. If you ever feel that this syndrome is kicking in, don't ride until you your over that.

When I said 'you' with the reckless comment, I just meant in general..not you specifically.

 

Aren't you only low-20's? Haha. Your back shouldn't be falling apart yet! I normally do 300-400mile day trips and I find my R6 to be pretty comfortable, although you do have to work up to enduring your body to ride that much.

The person is a self made millionaire(sold one of his companies for close to $650M) and very very smart down to earth person, I didnt make it yet to the warehouse in PA but i hope will make the trip there cause he owns some ONE of kind cars(Bugatti, Enzo's, S65 Brabus etc)

 

The Ferrari on the pic is the Scuderia 16M and only 499 of them made in the world.

Also my fat a** didnt fit in the Lampo, he explain to me that there is a certain way to get in and out of the this car(sit sideways first on the seat)

 

When i asked him which likes to drive the most, he told me the 911 TURBO for daily or the 599 Ferrari.

the Best engine sound is the Scuderia 16M and the Porsche CGT

The Porsche Carrera GT has only couple hundred miles and is a blast to drive but he bought it as an investment.

Word, I'm 21, almost 22. It's not that my back is falling apart, I just don't think a sport bike would agree with my back.

Thinking of several smartass remarks but, ehh, nevermind!

Damn you guys!

Bump. Just picked this up today.

 

Cars? Yes, I have a few.

 

'87 W100 Ram. Made it into a plow truck this season. Yes, the season where winter forgot to show up. At all.

318 4 barrel. Put a 600cfm Holley on it, the 2 barrel Holley really stunk. Now I get bad gas mileage. Oh crap.

 

 

Here's some OLD photos of my '90 LX Mustang. Haven't had it out in years now. Ran a best of 13.42 at Atco back in 2005 or so.

 

 

 

 

I'm a mechanic by trade, so that means I never work on my own cars, I'm always fixing everybody else's. Really sucks.

Engine for the chevelle.

In all seriousness, I would rock one as a track toy. Looks pretty clean too.

Maybe I will sell my truck and get a miata too.

 

No thanks I like vehicles made for men...lol...j/k. Though it would be way better on gas than mine
