Default Hey everybody! New guy here.

Whats up everybody!? My name is Mike and we just added a brand new '07 GT500 to the family collection! She is black on black with gray stripes. We haven't taken delivery of it yet as we are still looking into a good transport company to get it from Maryland to Las Vegas, but its already paid for. I can't wait to get it here and experience all 500 horses. We are also looking into getting a matching GT350 here in a few weeks as they have one coming into the same dealer we just bought the GT500. We would love to have the matching set. Anyways, I am looking forward to following the aftermarket with the coming of the GT500s and also looking forward to learning about all thats available for the current 4.6L. No pictures of the 500 yet, obviously, but rest assured there will be a photoshoot once it gets here and I will post the shots up as soon as I take them!

A little background on me and my dad...
My father and I share a passion for cars and everything that goes with them and we are very fortunate to be able to pursue that passion. We have built up a small collection of cars ranging from muscle cars to luxury cars. We are not die hard Ford fans, or Chevy fans, or even American car fans. We truly appreciate all forms of automobiles and it shows in our garages. My dad is more into the collectabilty of a car, but still will never own anything too collectable or expensive to actually drive. I am more into the performance, engineering, and driving experience that a car can give you. I love racing cars and started out drag racing. Drag racing eventually led me to autocross which quickly shifted my interests to road racing. I love participating in Time Attack races as well as regular old HPDE events at tracks in California and Nevada. Well, thats enough about us.

Thank you. Pics of all the cars, phew, I don't think I have pics of ALL of them, just the cool ones and they are scattered on different computers. We will start with what I can get off of my work computer...

First, my daily driver and the newest addition until the GT500 gets here: '05 Mitsubishi Evolution VIII MR...


Next, our twin turbo, built motor, gutted, '03 Nissan 350Z Time Attack race car...


Next, our 1970 Chevelle thats going in for a built LS2/T-56 swap in February...


Next, my fiance's daily driver: '06 Nissan 350Z...


And last of the ones I can find on my work computer: Our 1969 Camaro RS Z/28


Others:
2006 Dodge Ram 2500 Mega Cab 4x4 Cummins Turbo Diesel - Pictured below.
2005 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe - Pictured below.
2006 BMW M3 Convertible - Pictures on Page #2

Not Pictured:
2007 Ford Shelby GT500 Mustang - Expected delivery 2nd week of February.
2007 Superformance MK1 GT40 - Being Built
2006 Jeep Liberty CRD - No pics of this one - Dad's daily driver.
2006 Audi A4 - Haven't taken any pictures of this one yet.
2006 Mercedes-Benz E320 CDI - No pics of this one yet either.
2003 Mercedes-Benz SL500 - No pictures of this one yet. Mom's daily driver.
2001 Superformance Cobra 427 - No pictures.

I will try and snap pictures of the ones I don't have any of. I have been meaning to do that anyway.

Very impressive. Out of this group the Chevelle wins hands down for me. Beautiful.

^^^Thanks man. I am here at home now and I can only find pictures of the Dodge Ram and Corvette. I swore I had some of the Cobra somewhere, but they were taken years ago so if they aren't on my home computer they are long gone. I will have to shoot some more soon. Anyways, here's the pics of the Ram and Corvette...

Stock in this picture, but has had some minor things like NAV, heated rear seats, and such added. Soon it will get some wheels, tires, fender flares, and it goes into Banks soon for some serious diesel power...


Equipped with Corsa race exhaust and some color matched engine bay dress up things, but other than that its stock...
