    It was called (the Tatra) "Czechoslovakia's secret weapon of the IIWW"... Germans (especially german officers) loved that car, but most were unaware of it's oversteering capabilities in tight turns... I think more Germans were killed in Czech Tatras than by Czech military forces (including the ones based in Britain) :D

    Yuch. Headlights look like a cheap Lamborghini Gallardo ripoff. Looks like it's made out of LEGOtm anyway ;)

    Yecch.
    Some people, you can put them in school for a year and they just aint gonna learn how to use those French Curves there at their drawing boards.
    Anyone remember those cars made in North America some time ago; they had the 'shoe box' look? There were lots of them, prolly the most notorious was the 'Reliant.'
    The car in the picture looks like it was inspired by that generation of automobiles. Also, it looks like the prototype was carved out of a bar of soap using a butcher knife. Also, it is easier to bend sheet metal in sharp angles rather than compund curves in three dimensions. Also, I wouldn't trust a Russian Automobile as far as I could push it.
    Sorry.
    No, I mean Sorry.
    Maybe in twenty or so years, after Russian Technicians have improved due to real competition in the marketplace [which means: If you were a lazy, inept, buck passing, quota meeting, commissar blowing, drunk Technician Of Red Russia, you are now very hungry because your 'skills' ain't worth shit anywhere but, say, Cuba: Hint, attend trade school in Germany and learn how to make things with TOO MANY machine screws, because that impresses people].....

    edit: Just to be fair and show that, really, Biles hates EVERYTHING:
    [an example of shitty engineering from CANADA, using government grants, IE, MY money, made by drunk, incompetent coke sniffing lobbying pig trough eating etc...]

    Sometimes i must try install late war griffon to some car.

    This car can leave all WRCs in dust.

    But i think when i open both doors i can fly with it.

    Fuck 3 allison motors. Try the Shelby Cobra. 0-100mph and back to 0 in 13 seconds! Who needs wings when you can fly without leaving the ground?

    Wings give better rate of climb...I like the faceted look of that Russian car, is it a stealth?

    You know that Cobra is my all time favourite. As sexy as a car can be.

    Lamborghinis rule :) I used to like the English Lotus Espirit also.

    Once I was at a party and a friend brought a Ferrari. For four hours he drove girls for "special rides" in his car ;) What a bastard he was, grrr. A girl I really liked and had been with kept telling me how cool he was, and I wanted to kill that dude ;)
