Next to my mini, there is a speed yellow Lamborghini Diablo in my garage, as well as a Silver Storm Bentley Arnage. Outside is a lifted Dodge Mega Cab!
There's many more pics in my garage!

once the mini gets in she will be sidled up next to my Cosmo black E36 M3 some minor mods and such. but ill prob end up selling the M a bit after i get the Mini. I am a poor engineering student after all :-\ and realistically 2 cars is more then i need for the amount i drive.

Red Bull..
TT C6... betcha you are getting some impressive numbers... my C6 is a Lingenfelter 366 setup with a custom tune and in NA form puts out 470 RWHP... fun to drive but need more rubber in the rear. The ZR-1 is strickly a show car.... 1990 and has about 2100 miles on it....drove it up to Carlisle for the Vette gathering and probably that was the longest single trip it has ever done.

hey Oxyblue,
beautiful Porsches, -love the 928s.

Okay, here's a photo of my 930,
Too bad its not a slant nose.
-I don't care for the slant nose Porsches, they are so 80's. Love mine the way it is.

I built a woodwork shop for all my woodworking tools. Got tired of all the dust on my stuff.

Next to my MINI is my boat and a rollaround toolbox.

I just learned something...did not know there was a Mini pickup 'truck' ever...interesting.

Here is the LT-5 engine in the ZR-1....for those who do not know Vette lore the LT5 was designed by Lotus UK and since GM could not manafacture themselves (dual over cam, 32 valve, 16 runners/injectors, all alloy etc) Merc Cruiser of Oklahoma was contracted to build it... thus the name 'Motor Boat' engine in a Vette


The Lemans Blue C6



Hope others continue showing their other rides... enjoy seeing
