See the little blue things on the MC12's rims that look like locknuts? They're red on the other side. It's so they don't get the tires backwards . If you read Road & Track you might recall something a year back when sombody reported that they spotted a Porsche 959 with the tires on the wrong side. I find it funny.

here in belgium are many people that drive those civic's but not many drive the 160hp version... rather the 100hp version lol.
that's because the feul and the (car)taxes here in belgium are enormous !

nice looking car, the ferrari's arent that bad to

Judging from his name, I'd have to guess it's been swapped to a 1.8 or something like that .

The MC12 is a nice car to spot, quite rare. MUst be nice to work in close proximity to such cars. Not too many super-rare cars here where I am, but I have seen a Lamborghini LM, a Ferrari 246 Dino, and a few others as well as many of the current exotics. And they're not exotics, but there are a lot of R32 Skylines on the road here now, now that they're 15 years old and eligible to imported into Canada.

ow jeah... i was forgotten about that...

in the US you can do about anything with youre car, like for example a engine swap...

here in belgium the cars have to be "stock" and i mean really stock !! we have to go to a sort of garage(dont know the exact word in english) every year and there they check the whole car.
if you mis a checkup youre car can be impounded by the police and you can get a fine.

in that way they can keep track of youre car and how you are maintaining it.
if the car has a problem like worn tires, brakepads worn or whatever you have to fix it in 2 weeks and come back to check you fixed it !

so if you do a engine swap here and they notice it you get a "red" card and the vehicle isnt allowed at the streets anymore untill you swapped the engine back

sorry for the off topic but i thought that it was interesting for every body in the US just to know how lucky they are...
...ow yeah the gas here in belgium is about 1.7 dollars a liter for regular 98 so its the taxes and the prices of the gas that keeps us driving small engines

back OT !

mmm, we call it regular here, we have no super.
we only have unleaded 95 and 98 and @ shell we also have V-power(almost equal to super)

and we can use 95 in 99% of our cars here... even the beemers
i have to mention that we also drive alot of diesel cars, because of the expensive feuls...
we pay about 1.3 dollars for 1L diesel, this is the cheapest way to drive here in belgium except from LPG(dont know if you guys call it different then us...)

Man, all we have is 87, 89, and 92 octane. But near Lowe's Motor Speedway, thay have 93, 94, 95, and 100 octane race fuel. You're regular is better than our so called "Super".

Here's some pics I took of a Dodge Viper. It kind of seems affordable compared to the Maseratis and Porsche Carrera GT and Ford GT.
