But since you ask, this is one of my favourite big fast cars, of all time. I apologise for (briefly) getting back on topic, the shame of it.
How can you assume that this thread isn't about big fast cars? Its a proven fact that big fast cars must have something to do with pandas hitler and posts. I suggest you research some of my past posts and confirm who I am before you contest my opinion (which is always fact). How dare you even imply that a jewish knight has more bhp then a hat. You are obviously mistaken because a panda would never blast holes in knights with a rainbow just to show how powerful he is.
I have a sweet spot for the Lotus carlton. .what a beast What engines did they do in the 6 series then? any really fast models?
y' know reading this on me phone was a lot easier before y' all started using pic's to reply to each other. Any chance of keeping the insults more low bandwidth? pretty please with a 265-8 on top?
The model in the pictures above is the M635CSI, it came with the 24v, 3.5L six cylinder M88 engine (as used in the BMW M1) which gave 286bhp and a 6.7 second 0-60 time. A friend of mine has one, and I love it. Its relatively rare too, they only made around 500 in RHD.
bloke i know brought the e28 version - (the org M5) proper sleeper looks (ie no bodykit fitted, unlike the lesser M535i)!! used to scare the cr*p outta more modern cars!!
Always had a soft spot for the 928 as well. The GTS model was pretty rapid (the 5.3L V8 pushed out 350bhp and a 0-60 time of 5.9, peaking at 170mph) but I always wanted one of the earlier models, with Teledials and that fantastic check interior. I remember watching Risky Business as a child and wanting one ever since ... 'whos the U-Boat commader ?' Plus without the 928, we never would have had the Artz Golf 928. Fan-bloody-tastic.
had a thing for saab 9-5 aero couple of weeks back (whilst using my mates 9000 aero). went on loadsa sites looking for 1 on autotrader, ebay, etc.. went onto youtube just to check out 9000/9-5 aero vids. 1 of them shows a ( 9000 aero i think), swedish cop car flying up this road, straight onto the back of a lotus carlton up to no good. was behind him for a few secs, until the carlton bloke must've realised. next thing you know this carlton just took off!!! and i know 9000 aero's are in their element on open straights, but this thing was LEFT BEHIND big time!! never to be seen again
Aphex, your sig looks like artz golf which big fast car is the daddy: Bentley Arnage Turbo Lotus Carlton M5 E55 AMG Alpina B7 Brabus E class-whatever
