    "the shear rabid awesomeness"


    "Shear" = to cut.
    "Sheer" = unmixed/unqualified.


    Mind you, that stupid thing is sure to shear off some rich buffoon's body parts before too long.


    Pass the jellied nightingale's tongues and absinthe.

    My local DMV might differ on the definition of 'Street legal'. They'd probably have a collective aneurysm. Which would also work, now that you mention it.


    I would, however, have to move way out into the country, to a house with a heated garage, and at the maximum possible commuting distance. We would need to have a serious discussion about its cup holder count before I sign.

    I'd like to crash this party like so:


    "Hey, caparo your car?" (say it really fast)
    "Yes, of course"


    Proceed to "borrow" car.

    How could a design that looks so good from the front go so horribly wrong in the back. It's like the designer had some sort of seizure half-way through penning it, but his ego prevented him from making any corrections. "No, it's supposed to look like that."

    I agree in principal, but it snows up here, so the touque is necessary. As are a quality pair of stringback driving mittens.

    As soon as I get my type3 sold, I'm building a road legal single seater. Which reminds me: Anyone in the market for a '68 VW fastback?

    @Feds: Yes. Yes. Yes. The Caparo teases at being an open wheel car, but its not. Its like those girls with the tramp stamp who are really wholesome.


    However, I would just throw on a pair of cheap sunglasses and let me hair fly!


    @Deartháir: That's why I want to build a go-kart. With a little Honda 4-banger. I will probably kill myself, but I will die happy.

    @layabout now with V8 power: The downside is that the local police will station a black-and-white at your house and alert the 'copters every time you even try to leave. You chirp the tires even once and they will grab you and rendition you. The cheif will then buy your car at the police auction for $5. No, he won't run it in the 24 Hours of LeMons.
