Nice surprise coming into work today
 
With the dollar so bad the Americans are nonstop buying our vehicles and sending them south. Exactly what we did to them when our dollar was so good. Right across the street from my work is cross boarder services where all the action happens and when I say action I mean on average 4-5 full trucks everyday going south. Typically you just see trucks getting shipped down but today we got a little more action. Anyways enjoy:)

Thanks right 11 miles on the isetta

Countach 5000 :sweetjesus: too bad it's leaving town. not many left.

slicrick 06-23-2015 09:50 AM

I drove past there today and saw the 993 being unloaded, I missed the other cars though, I would of loved to see the Countach.

I used to work near there and remember often seeing a transport truck parked along the side of the road, usually with some new trucks and nice cars on it. I always thought they were being dropped off at Wolfe Mitsubishi cause they usually have some higher end used inventory.

dude that Countach is bone stock, look at Lambo clubs in Japan

Timpo 06-23-2015 10:45 AM

also the BMW Isetta has no value in Richmond.

All the Chinese kids want to drive brand new M4 and M6, the Isetta won't even be recognized.

Jmac 06-23-2015 10:52 AM

Is that Urkel's car?

OMG. I'm so happy someone else recognizes it like that as well.

Without Urkel I would have no idea what the fuck an Isetta is.

I agree. It's great to see a stock, unmolested Countach. Never seen Lambo clubs in Japan.

:heckno: Timpo has invaded

Its the Timpo thing to do. Just remember it the next time he starts a thread, and then shit all over it with kitten pictures

TouringTeg 06-23-2015 04:12 PM

The two 993 and the Countach are likely Silver Arrow cars from Victoria headed to auction in the US. I saw them in person recently.
Mmmm that GT2.

I hate the bumper extension on the Countach. Completely ruins the look. Stupid NA bumper laws... :(

Chinese kids know nothing about style, they just want to show off their parent's money


That is why chinese kids are rarely ever "cool"


When you see an asian bro driving a Mustang or domestic, everyone is like "Whoa, props"

My bad. All I could think when writing was 730hp :drool:

boostfever 08-06-2015 06:36 PM

The Ferrari you refered to as "kit car" is a rebodied 250 GTE that was built to Series II GTO specs. It does have the Ferrari V12 under the hood, no GM or Corvette V8 bullshit. This is not your typical replica Ferrari. It has aluminum body and costs a pretty penny.

Mr.Money 08-06-2015 06:54 PM

hey brrrz you work there??
seems like a nice place..i always stressed about buying off ebay motors from usa to canada and they seem like a nice place to deal with..:toot:

TouringTeg 08-06-2015 09:13 PM

Sad to see these special cars headed south.

Here are more pics of the 08 GT3 RS

2008 Porsche 911 GT3 RS - Silver Arrow Cars Ltd.

westopher 08-06-2015 11:08 PM

Thanks for the economy Stephen. Now all our fucking nice cars are disappearing.
