Car enthusiasts do their own research through the forums, blogs, and magazines. Garage419 isn't here to be the source of car information like CNN is for current events. Debates, biased reviews, and straight forward interviews are just some of the things to expect on '419.

    What on earth is that background video behind Spinelli?
    Tunnel traffic-crash cam?

    Would love to see the Stillen-O'Connell race you proposed! Someone make it happen!

    more good arguments from both sides.
    you guys talk a lot about spy photos but then really dont show any of them, case in point the "Raptor" and the "Shooting Break". i just think we could use more visuals. plus that background is highly annoying after a while.
    GO PORSCHE!!!

    Well that was the first time ive heard anything on the R8 which is an amazing car that i would like to see / hear more on..

    Oh and the Raptor, ive been following that thing since its inception.. I WILL be purchasing one if ever available to the public.

    Lastly, a third dropdown window, or a brief panover with a visual of what is being discussed would be awesome to!

    Just to bolster NIUJager's comment..

    where I come from and this is the west coast Flip A Bitch is a U turn and it always has been. but maybe this is new? I don't know. Volkswagon and Porsche we all want them to be together or at least I always have but they have been fine apart for the last 50 years, if it aint broke don't fix it

    I like the nissan gtr spec-v...but even if it may beat the ZR1, i would rather have a ZR1 b/c its a real car. Companies are doing anything nowadays to make their cars go faster, mostly, by using new high tech dsg flappy paddle type gearboxes and all wheel drive. What happened to keeping a car the way it is and making it faster because of just horsepower and less weight? The best conceived combination of potential.
    Anyways, do we need more jacked up pickup trucks for our compensating high school football players? The raptor looks good but seriosly? I would nto buy the baja inspired truck unless it had 500 hp and suspension that I could jump 6 feet in the air with.
    flip a bitch wont last...
    porsche and vw? no comment

    It was hard to tell if flip a bitch was serious or not. Its like they all know its a ridiculous idea but really awesome at the same time.

    keep it pimp'n, lol funny matt. have to agree with NIUJager on the visuals front. Flip A Bitch, have to say wouldnt have connected it to anything car related, lol. def gonna check it out, dont know y its not on speed or espn or something, but whateva, we still have u tube and whateva the site is. And as far as the spec-v goes, i still have my fingers crossed i'd be a stick or at least have that as an option, {most likely not gonna happen cuz they seem to think thats the way to go now-a-days} like u guys were saying the GTR always was a car that sort for did all the thinking for u, {good and bad thing} so for it to now shift gears for u as well, whats left??? basical all u do in that car now is steer and thats pretty much corrected for u as well. {still a big fan but its getting hard to love that car} as far as it vs the ZR1 i think it'll have an edge, for the simple reason that, thats what that car is built to do. which would i get??? right now my money would be going towards the ZR1, and by now u should know y. lol great show. keep it coming.

    just saw the Trailer for that flip a bitch "show," and i doubt its real, thats first of all cuz it seems like they're being funny, and the car they're using isnt an Evo its the lancer GTS AKA the evo poser.

    Check out "world parking challenge" on youtube. it's essentially the same thing as flip a bitch, but it's a real show from japan. if it works there, and MXC works here, I see no reason why a network wouldn't actually make a show like that, despite the fact that the preview is sort of a joke. i mean, they really did pull moves for the trailer, so they may as well at least release a full pilot.

    I looove Vettes, and I admit I do need to learn a little more about the ZR1...but Im still a fan of the C6 ZO6. I feel thats where they made a perfectly balanced sports car...hell, just look at its record at LeMans! I feel...they had something perfect and balanced...and the only way they could feasibly make it better was to add a Supercharger. I prefer knowing that the engne is naturally-aspirated. Dont know why, but I do. I bet that even Johnny O'Connell, Ron Fellows and the rest of the boys would prefer to compete at LeMans ina ZO6 rather than a ZR1....probably cause the supercharger hasnt been tested under 24 hour flat-out racing conditions. On the Nurburgring it may be a different story, but I dont know why...Im just not so enthused by the New Zr1/BlueDevil.

    sorry to disappoint, but forced induction isn't allowed in GT1 class... so no ZR1 at LeMans. They will be running the C6R, which would SPANK a ZR1 on a track anyway.

    yeah i've c'n the world parking challenge, and MXC on spike is fun to watch when theres nothing on always good for a laugh. so i c no reason y this wouldnt do well, i'd def watch if it was on, all i'm saying is it looks like a joke to me, so i doubt they're really thinking of making it into a real show. i'd love to c it be a real show tho.
