Hey, just wondering what kinda i'll european car ppl here on TST have. I have always had a weakness for the high end stuff. Though I do love the lower end aswell.

My Dad currently has a 1999 Porsche 911 Carrera. And he used to have a 1990 Porsche 944 S2. (i learned to drive stick on it) and I actually get to drive the 911 a fair amount too.

But what does everyone else here have access to? weather it be u own it, someone ur close to has it, or if u have another way. Lets hear it.

My dad has an Audi TT not sure what year but it's a TT. He's more of a corvette guy though. I have a neighbor with a Ferrari 355

Nice love the F355. and the Z3 and the TT are very nice, but not exactly high end like i was thinking, But w/e they do count. :thumbup:

My old neighbor had a bunch of stuff. Modded 911 turbo like 600whp, Lamborghini Gallardo with a few mods, and a Porsche GT3 997 after that.

My other neighbor had a Ferrari F355. But he moved away.

And the only one currently is a guy who has a nasty Porsche Turbo Cabriolet.

But on occasion some ppl have parties, and Ive seen their friends cars. RUF R Turbo (legit). Gemballa Cayene Turbo. many M5s. Aston Martin Vantage V8. Many more porsches. And I heard a guy a block away may be getting an SLR, but Ive yet to see anything legit.

Two very close family friends have had some neat cars.

Off the top of my head I can remember 85 Ferrari 308 GTB, AC Cobra, 97 Viper, 03 Viper, 360 Challenge Stradale, Ford GT, 2 GTR's, 2 Carrera GT's, GT3RS, Flatnose, 08 GT2, A complete set of one from every generation of 911 Turbo S's, 550 Maranello, 575 maranello, Ferrari Daytona, Aston Martin DB9, 5 360 convertibles, Gallardo, R8, RS4, F430...

I dunno there are probably more that I haven't seen/heard about but between the two of them they have had some neat cars. Nothing really special other than the Ferrari Daytona and the set of Turbo S's though.

you would be surprised how many get sold. within the past few months it has been bad but under normal economic circumstances those dealers do just fine :cool:

Seriously though.

As for my family, my brother has a Mercedes S500 with AMG appearance package. He used to have a Porsche Cayenne Turbo, Range Rover Sprt/SC, Escalade and an H2. Guy is 6'6" he needs big cars.

Pops used to have an 08 750Li, mom just got an 08 Mercedes ML. Oh, and my LP560 :-p

The owner of the Crazy Horse strip club chain lives about a mile down the road, and he's got a Murcielago LP640 and a Ford F650. ****ing nasty truck lol. He got rid of his 360 Stradale for it.

A little different...

2004 Volvo S60R, mine was $44,700 brand new...a little different than your average Volvo

It may not be Porsche, AMG or BMW M price, but it's definitely top-of-the-line for Volvo and hard to find cause of low production numbers and being discontinued.

Hey there, I remember meeting you at Blown Euros in Langhorne.....I've been browsing for a while and thought I'd join, you're the first other Volvo I've seen so far. Seems like a really great forum though.....first impression is it's very active here.

True that we are not "exotic euros" but we def. have the potential to surprise. :)
