20 years of running Tunisia and making enemies, while abusing the position of power, and gathering personal wealth including this Ferrari 599 GTB ... finally resulted in him running for his life, and these smart guys with a forklift going in and getting his Ferrari

the first 12 seconds are all that show the forklift cruising away from the palace with the Ferrari, the rest is footage from inside the trashed palace.

Tail hopping 1986 Ferrari 308GTB of Tony Worswick./ Usually rallied in Europe on Tarmac events, it was well suited to the Race Retro stage. The unusual part was that as it took the ‘yump’ every time, the rear of the car would catapult high in to the air, leaving the car in a nose down position. Not unusual if the engine were in the front, but the Ferrari is a mid-engine configuration! via: http://www.sportscardigest.com/rally-stage-2010-race-retro-report-photo-gallery/

The coolest cars that Pace Pirate has posted

Don't know what it is, but they did a great job with it ( Volvo!)

I think this Tempo has an awesome look, sorta VW micro bus lowered, but that split windshield is very reminiscent of the Santa Fe locomotive for a gallery of it: http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2010/08/this-is-cool-little-van-thing-i-dont.html

That is just the greatest thing you can do to a street racer!

Above Cougar is just a computer drawing, but an incredible design anyway

Has to be a mocked up photo

This would be fantastic in a 2 door

Wow!

Don't know what it is, want it.
