well, they got several thousand in probably untraceable parts.....a whole car is im guessing getting harder and harder to get rid of now....you need a place to strip all the parts off of it...then you have to get rid of the shell....my wifes subaru has that whatever subarus version of onstar is....so can they track the car? not sure.

Many years ago growing up in Queens my father used to take the train into the city. Where the train station parking lot legally ended it was wide enough to park a row of cars and no one ever got tickets. The cars were pretty hidden from view. One day everyone returned to 4 slashed tires. One week later, everyone returned to find their cars up on blocks.
 
Speaking of corvettes. Was walking the dog and the local elementary school
Had some outdoor party thing. Had to stay back so I didn’t drool on it. Z06. Want.

Then I had a good laugh when I saw this parked up the block. Ready for the NJ Baja 100 I guess.

1900+HP electric supercar - sub 2 sec 0 - 60, 8.6 sec 1/4 mile. Looks too much like a C8 vette tho

I saw that video, its onboard computer recorded 8.6 @171

Rimac Nevera is an electric hypercar that goes from 0-60 mph in 1.85 seconds

It can be all yours for $2.44 million.

the SF90 gets killed obviously....but the Rimec is also 4 times the price and twice as much power.

I like any car that can run 8s....I will say tho...im kinda disappointed that all these years later and a model S 100D still cant got faster than 10.5....not that 10.5 is slow, but nobody has been able to figure out how to mod one and make it faster than stock, outside of gutting it for weight reduction. Meantime, stock engined mustang GTs are running 8s with stock 10speed autos and twin turbo setups. Shame that Elon jesus wont let anyone play with his cars.
 
That's a funny thing to read. Around 1990, a local guy (i grew up in Hackettstown) was trying to build a "street driven" 10 second Chevelle. Built 427 (dat cam...), high stall converter, short gears. Probably a 2sp powerglide (I can't recall). It was only "street driven" in the sense that you could legally drive it on the street but you wouldn't really want to. A magazine editor in South Jersey snuck into the high 13s at Atco with a stock stripper Mustang 5.0 LX and we thought that was amazing.

Modern cars be crazy.
