The Miata is the "adopted British sports car" at these shows, but what is this we have here, hmm

...now I know what your thinking, "Monster Miata" right...wrong, better!

This thing put down 381 whp w/ a tune, intake and exhaust and is running a CTS-V rearend too and get this, 34 mpg, talk about having your cake and eating it too! Can you imagine that thing from a 70 mph roll =======

Its easy to see why I love BRG, isn't it!

Not the STIG, but rather the STAG!

57' Jaguar XKSS "road going version"...STUNNING!

Like I told you guys earlier, its a Mini world and you just get to live in it!

Original formula!

Surprisingly the bus isn't BRG, go figure

Allard in the house!

Now for something completely different, and NOT BRG (although it would look better IMO) the Berkeley with its small motorcycle motor and huge curb weight of 600 lbs! Its only got about 35 hp but the guys says it will do anywhere from 70-90 mph, what a blast this thing must be!
img1247456647995.jpg


Its engine...its in there, somewhere w/o hamsters too!
img1247452765252.jpg


This is just a nice ride, period!
img1247453342233.jpg


Not BRG, but still HOT!
img1247455510748.jpg


Not even BRG could save this fugly car, eek!
img1247454846878.jpg


I think this pic could be used in a calander...the 59' Morgan!

i absolutely luv european car shows. beats all others. 500plus hp camaros and novas get old real quick. beautiful tvrs:)

Not only that, but the attitudes are different, more open to things, but I'm sure there's people at the Euro shows that dog on my mid year Vettes:rolleyes: I can honestly say that after 20 years of attending car shows and cruize nights if I never see another 67-69 Camaro or 57 Chevy I'd be fine. I know some have Pro Touring versions of those cars and that's fine, but there's not enough of them though, but considering how much they must cost to build it makes sense. Alot of the guys that have the cars though live in the 80's still and that doesn't cost anything to change, does it:shrug:
