Are the Best Looking Cars the Most Exciting?

There are some cars that are very good looking, but they aren't as exciting to see. Take the Lamborghini Murcielago for example: it's a very sexy car, but if you're a car enthusiast, you probably hear about it all the time. You probably see it a lot too, whether it's on the road or online. It takes some of the mystique away and becomes like an overplayed song on the radio.

However, a Ferrari F50 is something you don't see or hear about often, even in the media. Seeing one in person really feels like a special occasion.

Or take a very odd shape, such as the Lamborghini Espada. That car is not what the average person would call "beautiful," but it's rare, and you hardly ever see one even in the media. It just feels so much more special to see one.

This video talks about (and shows) many examples of this.

Ferrari Testarossa w/ Fuchs Exhaust Revving and sounds!

The
Ferrari Testarossa is one of the most iconic exotic cars with a little help from Miami Vice. The flowing lines and the infamous side strakes are pure sex appeal. Unfortunately, the exhaust note is very quiet with a stock exhaust. Thanks to this video by Youtube user TwinCharched, we get to hear what a Testarossa should sound like. The revving starts right at the beginning of the video. This example is fitted with a very loud Fuchs exhaust system. This is the kind of alarm I would like to wake up to in the morning.

Lamborghini Espada accelerations


The Lamborghini Espada was a very unique design from the 1970s. It was a front engined V12 and a four seater.

Cars like the Lamborghini Gallardo and Murcielago are very stunning cars, but they are seen and talked about often. Cars like the Espada are very rare, and they are not seen very often. Seeing one in person feels like a special occasion. Here, you will get to see a quick overview of the car, as well as hear the startup and the sound of the V12 come alive as it accelerates away - twice!

The Lamborghini Cala was a running concept in 1995 that was meant to be the replacement for the Lamborghini Jalpa, or the next "baby Lambo." Unfortunately, production was cancelled when Audi took over. It would be interesting to see how this car would have done had it gone into production.

Lotus Elise ride w/ GoPro

Vector W8: What Made it Such a Great Car?

There have been many drama stories of men who had a vision in creating their own sports car, such as John DeLorean and Malcom Bricklin. Another one of these men was Jerry Wiegert, designer of the Vector W2 and Vector W8 Twin Turbo. It is difficult to get information on this car, especially accurate info. This car and company got a very bad rap because the company went down under. Many people blame it on the car being bad, but that's not even close to being true. Here is my attempt to share the story of the car, and set the record straight.

How a Corvette should sound: World Challenege Series

We're always used to hearing Corvettes with a very deep, menacing rumble. Here in the World Challenege Series, these cars have the same menacing sound, but with much higher RPMs. I've always liked the sound of the Corvette, but this is what a Corvette should sound like.

Jet Semi Truck 205 MPH

Ever seen a semi truck go 200 miles per hour? Or throw flames that would burn an entire house down?

This was the 2012 Italian Gathering, one of my favorite all time shows.

Mclaren MP4 12C High Sport (1 of 15 made)

DtRockstar1 records a very special edition of the new McLaren, called the McLaren MP4-12C High Sport. The story is that an owner of a McLaren F1 and an SLR McLaren wanted a special edition of the MP4-12C. McLaren agreed, and made just five examples. Then, people saw these and asked if they could get one too. McLaren agreed to build 10 more, so what you are seeing here is 1 of 15 cars in the world. It has the special operations badge, which is on the McLaren F1, diamond cut wheels, carbon fiber mirrors, carbon interior, a racing rear diffuser, and it costs $559,000 USD. This is chassis #8 of 15, and was seen at McLaren of Toronto.

It costs about $2,000,000 USD. I would like to thank the friendly staff at LMC (Legendary Motorcars) for this rare opportunity.

Ferrari Beaters: Aston Martin DBR1

DtRockstar1 records a very rare and historic Aston Martin DBR1, 1 of 4 built for racing worldwide. The chassis seen here is DBR1/3, which was piloted by Stirling Moss and Jack Brabham. It won the 1000km Nurburgring in 1958, outshining several Ferraris and Porsches. It was later driven by Jim Clark at Le Mans.

This driving demonstration was held at the Simeone Museum in Philadelphia, PA. Once a month, they take a selection of cars from their stunning collection and drive them for museum attendees. The theme of this demonstration was "Ferrari Beaters," as the cars that were driven on this particular day were cars that beat Ferrari in prestigious races. The other cars driven that day were a Porsche 917LH, Shelby Daytona, and a Ford GT40 Mk IV. Also on display outside was a Ferrari 250 Testa Rossa, but was not driven since the theme was "Ferrari Beaters."

RARE: Lamborghini Jarama

My jaw dropped the moment I saw this: a very rare Lamborghini Jarama. Just 328 were made. What was very cool too, was that it was completely surrounded by people checking it out - they actually knew what it was. At the average car show, people would just walk right by it and pay all attention to the more common Gallardos.

Thursday, July 12, 2012

I don't have anything against replicas, especially this one - it looks amazing! It appears to be better build quality than the original as well. I wouldn't mind taking this for a test drive. Click here to see!

I got the amazing opportunity to ride in a Ferrari 612 Scaglietti. This is actually my second time in this car, but this time I really got to feel what this car could do. It had amazing acceleration for a car that weighs over 4,000 lbs. With the windows up, it is quiet and comfortable like a Bentley. Step on the gas though, and this thing really hauls.

Even if a car is no more than a vehicle to get from point A to point B to you, you can't see this Ferrari in the corner of your eye and NOT turn your head to look at it.

Lamborghini Countach Ride

I took a ride in a Lamborghini Countach 5000s. This is an extension to my 2,000 subscriber special, including an exciting cruise with this Lamborghini Countach and a Ferrari 355. I did not notice much of the complaints that James May made about the Countach - no smell of petrol, it wasn't deafening loud, it wasn't hot (I actually still had my coat on), and the clutch wasn't that heavy (that was me revving the car at the beginning.) The only thing I noticed is that it wasn't very comfortable, and it was CRAMMED!! But who cares, it's a COUNTACH!!! They are known to be temperamental, so I wonder if James May would have a different experience if he tried driving another Countach?

Shelby Series 1 Yellow

I've seen a few Shelby Series 1 cars before, but they were all silver. This was the first time I've ever seen one in yellow, and I think it looks pretty cool! Very unique to this car.

Dodge Viper GTS angry sound

This is one of the meanest sounding Vipers I have heard. It sounds like it has a cam or something in it, but it sounds brutal even at idle!

Ferrari 328 GTS Ride

I took a ride a a beautiful Ferrari 328 GTS. This was on a trip to Pennsylvania, and I met up with a fellow car enthusiast to share that passion. That's what is so great about the car community: people are very friendly and love to share the experience with others. The owner of this car knew I was coming from out of town, and he arranged to meet up to show me around the area and talk cars. I would like to thank the kind owner for showing me some great areas in PA and for letting me experience the ride in this beautiful Ferrari!

De Tomaso Mangusta Ride, Ferrari Dino

I take a ride in an extremely rare De Tomaso Mangusta, 1 of 401 built. This particular example is a one of a kind, as it was the only Mangusta built with a Chevy engine (all others were Ford engines.) You can also see some great footage of a Ferrari 246 Dino driving alongside us!

Bill Michell was the designer of GM several decades ago. He was a fan of Italian sports cars, and he wanted a Mangusta for GM. However, the rival Ford engine that came with the car didn't sit well with him, so he demanded that it be made with a Chevy engine. The engine was recently dyno'd at around 345 horsepower and 370 lbs ft of torque. I would like to thank the kind owner of this car for allowing me the opportunity to ride and film this incredible piece of history!

2013 Dodge SRT Viper GTS

Here is a video provided by Youtube user RealMCR12. This video shows the new Dodge Viper displayed at the New York International Auto Show. I think the past several years of the Viper have been a letdown in terms of styling, but I think this is the best looking Viper made in a long time!

ORIGINAL 1963 Corvette Grand Sport Startup (1 of 5 made)

I got the rare opportunity to see an original 1963 Corvette Grand Sport starting up at the Simeone Museum. I got to see several other multi-million dollar cars starting up and driving outside that day, so stay tuned!

Imperial Speedster Ride!

Here we have a ride in the Imperial Speedster! Cruising in this car was a huge privilege, as it goes all over the country for some of the biggest car shows and has made TV appearances. It is so low to the ground and my legs were almost straight out when sitting in it. A lot of people were honking their horns and giving the thumbs up when they saw it. You'll see us driving past a couple of exotic cars as well. Be sure to check out www.pfaffdesigns.com, the company that created this car!

Lamborghini Jalpa Startup and Accelerate

One of 420 made, the Lamborghini Jalpa was the 'baby brother' of the Countach in the 80s. It had a 3.5 liter V8. I was very delighted to see this one! I have seen 4 of them, and this was the meanest sounding one I have heard.

Kevin Morgan Hurst Edition Trans Am Concept



If Pontiac were still around today, I think this is a very good rendition of what the Bandit Trans Am would look like. Designed by Kevin Morgan, this is the Hurst Edition of the Trans Am Concept. I stayed after at the 2012 Detroit Autorama to see all the action, and I got the chance to hear this beauty start up, sounded great!

Incredible Parade of Muscle Cars! Part 3



This is the 3rd and final segment of the cars leaving the 2012 Detroit Autorama. What an incredible event! Saw some absolutely stunning custom cars, talked with some great people, and got to hear the monstrous engines at the end.

This segment is actually louder than the previous 2, because I found a feature on my editing software that allowed me to do this. I think it makes the experience more enjoyable!

Delorean Engine Smoking Badly



DtRockstar1 records a convoy of Delorean DMC-12's. The one I was riding in was having problems - the fan wasn't turning, so the engine overheated and was smoking badly. It's PRV V6 engine is made from aluminum alloy, so an overheat can totally warp and ruin the engine!

Bugatti Royale Type 41 (1 of 6 made!)



1 of 6 made, the Bugatti Royale is one of the rarest cars in the world. The intention was to build 25 of them and sell them to royalty. Unfortunately at $43,000 in 1931, even the richest people couldn't afford it during the Great Depression. The car is absolutely beautiful.

3 DeLorean DMC-12's, onboard a DeLorean

Aston Martin One-77 Revving



This is one of the most exiting cars I've recorded. Talk about being in the right place at the right time, I stumbled across a private party at an Aston Martin dealership by accident! The man at the dealership was nice enough to tell me that the car would be leaving at 10pm to be shipped back to Britain. That gave me the privilege to see and hear this car as it was leaving. I was told that only 2 of these will be in the USA. A rare opportunity indeed!
