British Automotive Pr0ns -- TVR Sagaris

Image
You know what I dig about TVR? The fact that not much is known about the inner workings of their company or tooling, yet their cars are motherfucking FAST, and exotic at the same time. Enormous inline 6 engines make for a very sexy exhaust note, and in the case of the car we're currently discussing, a very interesting presentation of it as well. Personally, I am not a fan of the cladding/shroud surrounding the exhaust, but other pictures will show that it is not always there. Without a ton of information to provide, other than the car debuted in 2004 and had a 2-year run, and came in all kinds of strange colors -- as is par for the course with TVR -- I have not a lot to keep you on without just getting to the images, so here we go.

AMERICAN (bout damn time) Automotive Pr0ns -- SSC Ultimate Aero TT

SSC = S helby S uper C ars... Shelby = Caroll Shelby, the grand motherfucking daddy of sportscardom... Shelby SuperCars = ... fuck, you get it. The Ultimate Aero TT, therefore, is the top of the top of the motherfucking line. Prototyped in 2004, debuted in 2006, continues to now, but only 25 total... Under 3000 pounds, over 1000 (1183 to be exact), Berlinetta-styled coupe. Expect to unass about 5-600k for one of these. Oh, and get some driving lessons, as electronic pussifications, such as anti-lock brakes and traction control will NOT be in the building for your most-of-a-million outlay. Power comes courtesy of a Chevy Corvette (BLASPHEMY!!! Shelby is a Ford guy!) 6.2 liter twin turbo engine. 1183 horses and over 1000 pound-feet of torque. Anyone still miss that Ford motivation? Me either... I could go on and on about issues uninteresting to most of my 17 public and 4 private readers (yes, I have figured out how to see you too, though I can't identify you) and those who
