Hi guys,

While I was up at HP Autowerks in Santa Barbara on Friday getting my RTABs and RE Adjustable Rear Camber Arms replaced on my M3, and they had a Vector in the shop. At one time, this was the fastest car in the world. This particular car has a big 'ole V8 and sounds like a monster. I took a few pics with my Sony A100 DSLR and thought some of you might enjoy seeing it.

Wow! Perfection!

 

I didn't think those were still being made/sold. I am assuming that the lack of plates and the overall new look means that is a new Vector. I guess they fit the driver to the cockpit as there are no pedals in that car. I remember that a Vector was used in the movie "Black Rain"- it crashed and burned.

 

Kinda "busy" looking.....not that I would turn down a ride in one!

 

I see my Miata has Vector turn signals.

Looks like a kit car to me. Sad because it is quite a car. It's looks let it down.

 

damn, that's the steering wheel im planning to get. (momo fighter).

those wheels SSR Professors??!!

 

Here's an early version, very spacey looking. GM front sidelights.

An above shot.

So, from what I can tell, it's the latest that I haven't seen yet, or a nice kit car. The gauges facing the roof is not a good sign.

 

I noticed the bad angle on the gauges as well, I would think that glare would make them hard to read but I guess those are only very occasionally used and are expensive toys for the very wealthy who want something that very few have.

 

I think it's ugly.
