    Product Demo

    Yeah --- I'd heard about the 'test-drive' thing being offered at The Show --- going on downstairs in the parking areas. Had a coupla offers to go + try some cars . . . but . . .

    . . . Thing is --- my idea of a 'test-drive' usually involves . . .
    ..1) Speed (duh)
    ..2) Hard/high-speed corners (at least two)
    ..3) Hard braking (into the ABS)
    ..4) Railroad tracks

    Sounds like this Guy hit 3 outta 4? --- + in Downtown L.A.? . . . = my hero

    Only thing is --- my typical 'test-drives' are about an hour --- and don't involve/require law enforcement . . .

    . . . or medical attention . . .



    . . . usually

    . . . IS300 --- awd! . . .

    . . . 'Sriracha' edition


    Don't think this set o' colors + finishes is exactly 'fo sale' --- which may not be a bad thing . . . but the 'awd' tag 's kinda interesting



    Orange-sparklies + green trim . . . = not-so-much

    Lexus makes the ugliest cars in the world
    Can imagine some Toyota exec going "we are called boring !! Fix it !!"
    only thing worse than a boring Camry is a pimped out Camry

    Mercedes-Benz AMG GT . . .

    Whoa --- where to start . . .


    1st-off --- I'm startin' to like these matte-paint cars. Shiny 's always nice, but this looks a bit more ---- military, purposeful. Plus, I prolly won't have to wash the car as much . . . I'm basically lazy. But I wonder what it's like to have to repair/touch-up something like this?

    Anyway . . . I think this looks pretty bitchin' --- the finish. Love green

    As for the car? ---- weeeeeeeeeeeeell . . . . I think I liked the older/crazier/original McLaren version better --- 'member the one with the side-dump exhausts + butterfly doors + SL-side vents? AMG's take is down-right sober --- I mean, even the 'gullwing' doors are gone!

    This one's pretty-slick, I suppose --- not ugly . . . + still costs a ton . . . it's juuuuust a little bit too-normal/ordinary/conventional ---- -looking anyway . . . though I'm sure it hauls @ss


    But seems I only see these at Car Shows . . . + in auction results . . .

    . . . nowhere else




    Anybody driven one?
