    I like The 1950 Riley 2.4 - It did share a few parts with other cars like doors even. . But I like the Classic English styling. I like that it is interesting rather than Exotic or pompous. It was never a supercar - but I think It would be a Super car to own and go to the shops in. Excellent for country driving on a summers day.
    It was quite a mover for a British car in its day.

    It was almost a Cousin to The MGY (below)


    This car also shared parts. Both were made when the early Marques like Wolseley Riley MG Austin Morris Hillman and a few more, were losing their individuality. It was an era dying Manufacturers. The trend continues . . But the cars live on as a historical record that a person can drive and re-live . .

    I love old cars like that. When I was a kid my grandfather had a 1950 Studebaker. I used to love the front end on those.




    He was a pilot in WWII and he had it painted to match a P-51 Mustang, even with the 'shark's teeth' on the front.

    Yes . . Those were the days when someone asked 'Whats behind us" and a quick glace in the rear view easily identified the year make and model . . .

    These Days I have to walk to the front of a car and read the label on it. Even then sometimes I need to ask "Who makes the xxxxx?"

    OMG, 1200hp, and, a top speed of 272mph and 0-60 in 2.4 seconds! That's insane. 9.9 in the 1/4 mile, I would think that would do a little "better" than that with those previous specs (like maybe in the 8's), but that's still of course also insane.

    Looks like the 2011 may be a little bit slower: http://www.venomgt.com/the-venom-gt/specifications/ So maybe the 2010 did better than 9.9 in the quarter.

    I can't understand why that new show (here in the USA) Top Gear didn't have it on the show. Ahh, "The Hennessey Venom GT will make its North American debut at the 2010 SEMA Show in Las Vegas on Tuesday, November 2". That's why. Probably next season....if THC didn't cancel it which they probably did.

    I have heard that Porsche is faster, and as such probably more risky.

    I have heard that Linux is faster.

    No good to me. . far too stressful. I would never be able to roll a cigarette if I need more than one hand on the wheel.

    Besides . . I would need to buy a road to go with it. There are no roads around here that you could drive that car on. I would need it lifted so It could at least clear an upright coke can. .
