Was talking with one of my closest friends I haven't talked to in a long time lol.
But yea, he says he's doing a project, gonna make a car from scratch. Now, it sounded abit far-fetched to me till I realized his plans.
Well the car is going to take after the Lotus Super 7, formally known as The Caterham. But I wasn't used to it being called the Super 7 till he showed it to me... my jaw just smashed through the floor!!!
I'm like 'WTF THAT'S MY DREAM CAR!!!' and he got a good laugh out of it which really embarrassed me since I'm still thinking the car was only made by hand and made only for racing in Europe... I was WRONG!!! Turns out the car is mass produced and really cheap! Like, the thing only weighs in at about 1.4k LB, features a I4 at 330BHP with almost matching TQ, and can challenge a Ferrari with no struggle and kill most any American made car hands down!
The Caterham has been my dream car ever since the day I saw it on Sega Grand Prix on the xBox when it first came out, it's design was the main thing that intrigued me. Well... thanks to http://www.furaffinity.net/user/bluekitsune , I can now presute that dream again of getting one as I now know they are mass produced and really cheap o_O Not only that, it proves to be a menace on the track to even big names like Porsche, Ferrari, Mercedes, and even McLaren!!!
I freaking love that car and will forever be a supercar in my books!! :D
