Bullitt is the only Mustang that looked good in green.

2005 Mustang Puke Green was one I always liked.

Fairlane Club of America local show this past Saturday. I was geeked out completely when we stumbled upon last year’s show, seeing not one but two 1971 Torino GT convertibles out of the corner of my eye. I’ve only seen 6-7 total since the 1970’s when my dad bought the one I now have. The green ‘72 looks to be the original owner, had original title and sales order framed in the trunk.

Interesting video on this:

The 911 has an 8 speed DCT. The gears are shorter because they can be.

In the 7 spd manual C7 Vette, 7th (and maybe even 6th) are basically fuel economy gears. 1500 rpm in 7th is like 80mph. You can hit top speed (~180mph) in 5th.

Morris Minor...I think anyway.

Yes, Morris Minor Traveller; based on the reg # it is a 1965. The woodwork is structural.

@rick81721 I don’t know where you are in Fla but my son is now living in Port Saint Lucie. Keep an eye out at the meets. This will likely be one of the loudest cars there.

I'm not sure I completely buy into that guys logic. The race car world moved to semi-auto gearing last century because it was faster, the super car companies did the same this century for the same reason. I think Porsche puts insanely long gearing in their 718's because they're too lazy to develop a proper manual because of 'Ring times, plus the car is dead in 2 yrs.

Doubt he will go across the state - we are on the west coast in Venice. Nice car tho!

Is it true the 911 will be Porsche's only ICE car?

tried to find some kind of marking to figure out what this is
Its a wagon but side panels look like Vista cruiser but bumpers are square as fuck

I wish I was the one who got to drive it there that would've been fun
