LETS PUT IT THIS WAY, THEY DIDN"T DRIVE A REAL FERRARI IN THE MOVIE! sorry for being rude or anything, i am not trying to be! but this useless info i have floating around in my head! -
me, my self, i wait 1 day! to be safe!!!!!!!!

i am in the same boat as fujimilover, we don't have an airbrush/compressor! so i have only spray-can right now! and hand brushing work sucks!

NO POLISH!!!!!!!!! hey is my chevy with the white primer, gum metal grey silver (a.m.t.u.p.) and the and 1 coat of gloss!!! now here are the 2 cars i was talking about earlier with the white base and the silver base!!!!! ones extremly darker than the other! here is the caddy its has the white primer, royal blue (a.m.t.u.p.) and 2 coats of the gloss! here is the mini copper with the silver base, royal blue (a.m.t.u.p.) and 2 coats of the gloss! now here are the two cars side-by-side! i hope this helps you!

the white would be brighter! if you want a duller, darker then yes use the silver! i always used white base for red top coat! its alot brighter and like treehugger dave says it will pop and dazzle!!!! i have tried this the white and the silver base with royal blue. on white, the blue looks like blue. but on silver, the blue looks like black!!

its not a 250 "gto" spyder! its a 250 gt california spyder swb! but the movie car is NOT a real Ferrari 250 California, it is a kitcar with a chevrolet engine! There actually was a real 250 GT used in shooting. They brought one into the studio for 1 day of shooting. Every extreme close up you see of the car (i.e. The emblem, wheels and so forth) is from a real 250 GT -
i think its a model! to me this is the best looking one yet!
-
awsome nismo z-tunes!!!!!!!!!! they look fantastic!
-
nice car dingo!!!!!! i had drove a 1970 opel gt one time. the owner is really nice guy, it was his personal car! ad he let me race it once! that was the best day of my life! and then bad news struck me a 6 months ago, he sold it for $6,500 and it came with a spare engine, tranny/gearbox, and a big box of parts! here is the pics of the opel!
-
true, also i like another special street/rally car (better than the pug 205) is the renault r5 turbo 2! A BEAST!!!!!
-
those are nice but not perfect!!!! but the pug 205 t16 is alot faster!!!!! street version: rally version: another great rally car is the ford rs200!!!!!!! amazing machine! i love it!
-
i cant wait for the gumball3000 to do another run in europe! they used to the cannonball here in the states but they outlawed it and then they moved the race to europe and called it the gumball rally! love that race! classics, street tuners, and exotics and custom built cars hash it out to become number one!!!!

subbie 22b impreza is very nice and rare! but all 500 made are for road use! sorry to say but that subbie in the video wasn't a 22b. and the renualt and puegoet was for my mr class (mid-engine rear wheel drive) now for the 4wd class it would have to be............. i don't know, subbies are to common! it has to be something old and rare! and FWD is the champion for ever: the austin mini cooper 1275 s!
-
yeah befor drifting it was called powersliding! Question since we all like the same drivers! what about your fav rally cars! mine would have to be a renault r5 turbo 2 "or" a puegoet 205 t16! those cars are mad! and very rare and expsive!
-
yes, richard burns and colin mcrae where great drivers! and my fav too but the is also: paddy hopkirk, i don't think he's dead yet. but he is like 70 or 80 something!( he rallied mini coopers!) and any rally driver and co-driver of the group b rally class! those cars where brutal, and blindingly fast! plus extremly dangerous! those cars caused alot of horrific accidents and many deaths, thats why they had banned group b class! and many more i cant think of right now!
