Why is "phonetically" spelt with a "ph"?

The complex of Newgrange was originally built between c. 3100 and 2900 BC,[2] meaning that it's aproximately 5,000 years old. According to Carbon-14 dates,[3] it is more than 500 years older than the Great Pyramid of Giza in Egypt, and predates Stonehenge by about 1,000 years.

i used to follow street racing a lot when F&F was popular, it was huge here in Chicago.... i knew a guy who had a 900 HP street legal Supra that was decked out to the max, thing was unreal! i knew chicks that drove 700 HP RX-7s, man i wish i had a digital camera back in those days, some of the cars that were around here would blow your mind!!!

I went through that phase too of loving crazy hp tunes jap cars,but i'd rather a mint untouched car now,I seen a sweet r33 gtr a few years ago,original wheels and exhaust in midnight purple,looked way better than any other modded skyline

there's no replacement for displacement

this would be my practical run-a-bout 6litre bi turbo v12, 612bhp and detuned to 738ftlbs (an M5 has around 350ftlbs)

since i was 7 years old this is my dream car

many came after it, more powerful, faster etc etc. hell even a BMW M3 has more power today

but in my heart this one remains number 1, the classic Ferrari Testarossa.
can get the boy out of the dream, but not the dream out of the boy



close second

the classic 328 GTB

one of the best models ever made by them, very reliable and way better built than the 308 GTB or Mondial

and still enough power to have fun with

Nothing like those older Ferraris'...I have the 1/43 Herpa models of the 348, F40 and Testarossa....the best and most detailed models as yet...

for the rest ...the only pic here that stirred my interest was the Unimog..I'd have that in a heartbeat(in black would be nice)...as for the rest...over priced pieces of very good looking lumps of metal. My sons best mate works for a shop that fixes Ferraris'....40,000km ...complete engine rebuild, and they are in the shops more than they are out. Gimme a Brabus Benz anyday.

Considering the car and the background setting; I can imagine if one of the "redneck" comedians put up a poster of this photo in his routine and stating it's his daily driver, then saying...



..."I figgur one wiper is just fine cuz who else but the drivor needs to see when its rainin anyway"

I couldn't resist!

Please use this before clicking "post"??? You may be surprised with what you see!
