This is a very nice running 1996 Corvette Coupe with the very desirable, and somewhat rare, LT4 330HP motor and Manual 6-speed transmission. We saved this car after it was sitting under a tarp and we have been working on it to get it back into excellent running condition. It just pains our heart to see good sporty cars not …
If you are looking for a fun to drive and classy, yet functional, sport sedan, then this is the car for you. This 2006 BMW 330i has the very desirable Sport Package which includes the sport suspension, sport seats, sport steering wheel and other goodies. This car is all original and unmodified. The only thing that has been added was …
Here is a nice 1981 Corvette we have up for sale. These C3 cars have been gaining in popularity and this is a nice driving example. This car has 90,000 original miles on what appears to be the original L-81 350cid small block. The numbers on the front of the block where we can normally check for matching numbers have …
The Miata has been called everything from a “Hair Dressers car” to the “roadster that saved the sports car world”. So which is it? Once we had gotten the first reviews under our belts we needed to decide what type of car to review next and it quickly became clear we wanted to hit the truly affordable fun to drive …
If you have not read our review of the 1990 Mazda MX-5 Miata, do so Here. The reason is because we wanted to find a newer “econocar” for about the same price as the older Miata and see what a decade worth of newer technology would gain and to see which would be the better drive. In our search to …
The last car we reviewed was a 1991 Nissan 300ZX with the normally aspirated V6. This time around we have one of the contemporaries for that same 300ZX, a 1988 Porsche 944. Again, this is the normally aspirated version without the turbo so it actually should be a very good match up with the 300ZX and we were anxious to …
This car is a nice low mile (128k) 1991 Nissan 300ZX normally aspirated car that needed a little TLC to get running well, which we provided. The car runs and drives nicely and there is no body damage or rust. The driver’s seat was old and torn so we had the seat cover replaced with the matching material to the …
This is an all original 1980 Fiat Spider 2000. It has less than 32,000 miles and runs and drives well. It has the 5 speed manual transmission that shifts well with no sloppiness. The car is showing its age with the original paint fading and being worn, but it is straight and no rust! The top is new (previous owner). …
If there was ever a car that commanded attention and announced that “I am here!”, it would be the Lamborghini Aventador. No, it is not the best Super Car out there, they are fairly large and heavy, but they are a show stopper and they have 700hp. We asked a group of teenagers once “Lamborghini or Ferrari?” and 90% of …
DF has always been more of a fan of the ‘pure’ driving experience than just raw power and as such, a car such as a Cayman R would bring more excitement than something such as a 911 Turbo with all the luxury options. It was a nice discovery to find this green Cayman R sitting on the show room floor. …
Here is one of those high optioned 911 Turbo’s mentioned in the Cayman article, so why is it shown here? Well, because you just do not see many of the 997 generation turbo’s with the Aerokit option like this one has. It was a used 2010 car on the floor with just a couple of K on the odometer and …
Well look what they had over in the service area… a beautiful Carrera GT! You do not see many of these around so it was a nice find on our search for cool cars in Canada. A high revving V10 in a beautifully low slung body with minimal weight, makes for a potent combo of driving pleasure. This one had …
On the floor of the Audi dealer was a stunning grey R8 with black blades. This was a manual six speed version with the V8 and not the V10. They had the spoiler ‘up’ which many people think helps balance the look of the R8 toward the rear. Audi really did an excellent job with the R8 and it perhaps …
One of the distinct differences noticed about this Audi dealer vs. others in the USA, is that they displayed many of their cars with Audi accessories attached. Such as an S4 with the bicycle rack mounted on top. Many of the vehicles on the showroom floor had Audi accessories attached and displayed.
Like the Porsche dealer, the Audi dealer was completely indoors, including their used car selection which was in the ‘basement’ of the dealership, this made it very comfortable to browse and look at their available used vehicles for sale. It was also nice to have the model year of the used vehicle displayed prominently in the license plate frame.
As a whole the Audi dealer was very tidy and clean and well displayed. Certainly worth visiting.
The Ferrari/Maserati dealer was the third one on the list to be explored and their web page indicated no less than 15 vehicles in stock and that their showroom opened at 10:00am. It was 10:15am, only two vehicles were on the showroom floor, a Ferrari FF and a Maserati Quattroporte, and the doors to the dealer were locked. The one …
A short distance from the Ferrari dealer a Ferrari 458 Italia was spotted and a photo taken of its tail end as it turned in the opposite direction. It turned down the same street as an earlier spotted Audi R8 and Porsche Panamera, so some investigation was required to see just what was down that street.
The little side street turned out to be a very posh little street with very high end clothing boutique shops… and some cars! This dark blue Jaguar E-Type Series 1.5 convertible was discovered just off that little street in the entrance to a parking garage.
The R8 that was spotted earlier in the day on the way to the Ferrari dealer was discovered parked in front of one of the little shops. This R8 had the V10 instead of the V8 version that was at the Audi dealer.
