no, MR2 and tuned Cobra

you are like little baby

Shit, forgot about TVRs. Not even TVR would drive a TVR.

Hi.

I'm getting nervous just looking at it.

These things want to fucking kill you.

looks like the person who designed this was never in a professional design school

>Take an already insane car
>Mirror the engine around the crankshaft for double the power
>Blow up the dyno during testing
>Create underivable monstrosity
>Cancel the program and sell off the only prototype to a collector whose driving skills were personally verified by the owner of the company before sale
RIP based TVR. You left us too soon.

TVRs are all about a big, powerful engine in a lightweight as fuck car, with refinement or professionalism not high on the list of priorities.

you're right they probably weren't

Possibly the only thing that could've destroyed the McLaren F1 in pure ferocity, but no one's gall enough to find out.

If you drive like the total faggot you are, no matter which car in this thread or another, you'll end up fucking shit up.
Sure its no gay little miata where you can hammer down the pedal and nothing happens. But as long as you do daily driving, these cars should drive and behave like any other shitbox on the road.
If youre way too incompetent to do that, you should probably end yourself with a dull fork. Because hammering down the pedal on a m3 will also result in a nicely wrapped tree.

The implication is taking it to its limits. No shit anything is tamable at 20 mph.

Please tell me what you think is a problem with the design so I can laugh at you and condescendingly explain why you're wrong.

>didn't know these existed until now

...

I have one. My pride as the master of my local too-gay (a downhill road with sharp turns banked on the wrong side) nearly lead to my death when some wannabe Takumi tried it in a Silvia.

The f40.. the last analog Ferrari.

you mean a rat rod with skinny tires no exhaust off the headers and a monsterous supercharged engine blocking the tiny view from the chopped roof

talk about scary

bikes are inherently more dangerous than cars

>The f40.. the last analog Ferrari.
Last time I checked they are still making Challenge cars, which are just as analog as the F40 and any Joe Schmo can buy one

>Which car requires the most resolve to drive

Can we post Group B cars too?
>350HP
>2600lbs
>Almost literally no safety features
Group B was for men

>car

>almost
>literally

There were worse

Isnt that the AWD Mid-Rear Twincharged one?

>>Almost literally

shitty brakes, overheats in traffic, gas chugger for what it is. youre correct user

Most of us aren't going to drive any of these cars so here's one for most accessable

Not road legal tho

>GROUP B!!! GROUP B GROUP B GROUP B!
please stop already, Group B cars were too powerful for their drivers to control and ended up killing drivers and enthusiasts of the sport.

One of those stupid three wheel things they like to race in britbong land

>implying that unsafe cars and spectator deaths are anything less than awesome

We all know it's the Miata
It's very hard to resist driving as fast as you can into a tree to end your misery

No. This is probably the easiest and most predictable rwd car ever

>Driving an NC
Suicide is understandable.

yes. IIRC 1000+ HP on engine dyno was possible.

Was that the copperhead in one scene?

They're only sketchy at the absloute limit. They're fine as a DD. A guy I used to work with had a first gen viper and a Cherokee SRT8 and he said the Jeep was more scary because you don't expect the speed.

Modern rally cars, GRC cars and replicas are faster.

This one is 2200lbs and 700hp.

source or gtfo

any rear engine porsche with out electronic driving aids.

You spelled Kenworth wrong.

>anything with 4 wheels
>requiring resolve

you don't even have to be going fast in one of these things to fuck up
how anyone ever thought this was a good idea I will never know

user is correct. Though they never raced it with more than 500hp

Cytech yo

I've seen one of those on the road on my way home and he seemed to be doing alright. Went through roundabouts no problem. But at the same time there were 3 people in the car so it may have weighed it down

...

Tree strong.

>AWD Mid-rear
Which one, then?

mal ao

I was going to post exactly this, but it seems I am a bit late.

oh no i've crashed it

i've crashed it almost immediately

God Damm i love those side pointed exhausts

and the drivers hated it...

It's the 1965 International Scout. I'm not even joking.

what did it do

MUH DICK
Seriously, high-performance and unusual trim versions of 80s and 90s shitboxes are my fave.

...

They're not as easy to crash as Top Gear made you believe.

And it still looks better than the Viper.

He is right, these things were fucking insane. They never raced them at 1000bhp, but the 1.8 4 pot was capable of it.

roadandtrack.com/car-culture/classic-cars/videos/a29930/lancia-delta-s4-petrolicious/

you fucking baby. I drive road trains in Australia and it's easy as fuck.

All wheel drive, mid-rear engined (engine is behind the driver but in front of the rear axle).

holy shit i've never heard of this before. Wtf is this i love TVR now

If you didn't love them already, you might have brain problems.

it's... it's amazing
Its like the entire company not had a single fuck to give at any point ever

No one ever said "This is a bad idea" until they had a thousand horsepwer

It gets even better. Inside, they all have this beautiful but alien interior that makes me aroused and profoundly uncomfortable at the same time. Mitsuoka should have contracted these guys.

whoa, that pretty fucking neat though. Why have i never heard of these guys before??

>side pointed exhausts

genius

Because they're a low volume manufacturer that folded ten years ago and never really sought any markets outside of the UK.

Yes, this is a factory color option.

>looks idiotic
>orange-purple pearlescent is facory option
>Cars are either wayward, undriveable or broken
>Inhouse engines
>no safety anything
>RWD and manual
>lightweight

i think i am in love

And another color option: TVR Nebula Dusk. There's literally dozens of these.

Last one I'll post. This is Spectraflair Silver.

Also, in case you missed out in this tidbit: the TVR Speed Six engine was the most powerful naturally aspirated six cylinder engine ever in a production car until the Porsche 997 GT3, and it's still the most powerful naturally aspirated straight six. Not too shabby for an engine that first came to market 18 years ago.

The enthusiast deaths were their own damn faults

My vote is for the ruf yellowbird

i can never get over how... violent that thing feels

>Aluminum wheels

god that looks so good.

>Thwarted by a tree the thickness of my dyel arm

I'm starting to realize just how much of a death trap my MR2 is

>320hp
>2680lbs
>absolutely no safety features (No abs, no power steering, non turbo brakes which are practically useless)

My MR2 is for people with a deathwish.

>Power steering
It's not a safety feature, it's a convenience for steering in parking lots. Especially for a car with no weight on the front like yours.

You did a turbo swap to an s54 tranny while making 320hp?
I don't believe you though I wanna.
3rd gen 3sgte makes 240~ stock until you start doing some sikk mawds
Mine is the black one and desu driving it without any safety features or traction control/assisting nannies is great. Such a pure expression of a sports car for the price
