back to topic once again

greateratlanta
you are correct but it was not due to safety reasons. They said the car needs to look as close as possible to a factory car and the front mount open like that was just way too different.

Dado, what do you think of the new 645's? I rode in one today, I felt like I was on top of the world. I rode in a convertible (yuck) but I hear the coupe's are much cooler.

well i have only seen it once in person. I would really have to try it out before judging it. As fas as looks, I would have expected a little better from BMW. Their new designs are different but I am sure it will grow on me just like the 5 and 7 did. At first I hated those two but the more I see one on the road the more I like them.

you are right on the lady part but not on being shut down
Don't they have both?

Actually I cut the bumper. But there is still a bumper support behind it, and if that were to get ruined I have an extra sitting around.

mmmmm Saleen S7....I hope once they get a little more funding they can start to compete with Ferrari and Corvette. Off topic...anyone know if Corvette is going to be sporting some C6Rs in the ALMS or at Le Mans any time soon?

I knew the Le Mans Prototype cars (675/900) had different headlights than the GT and GTS class cars, I was just saying that even the GT and GTS cars still used HIDs.
