Skittles

Here is one of my favorite pictures of my car with my two buddies cars. We all park next to each other in a spot where there is only three spots (excluding the handicap spots which nobody uses) so nobody can park next to us and we know we won't door ding each other. When we park like this everyone at work affectionately refers to our cars as the "skittles". The Mustang belongs to the guy who took the picture so of course his is in front.

In case you are wondering, they are all V8's and have manual transmissions and yes we have taken them to the track and I beat them both by over a second in the quarter mile, mainly I suspect cause I have wider, stickier tires.

What does the fact that they're all "V8's" have to do with anything? Nice looking cars are nice looking cars. Your average Tesla Model 3 "performance edition" can probably smoke all three at that altitude.

Yea and you could probably buy all 3 of those cars for the what the Tesla would cost and still have money left over. What is your obsession with Teslas anyway, are you in the wrong forum?

Who wants a nice looking car that has an inferior engine platform? Don’t even get me started on Tesla.

He said “in case you are wondering.” Why are you getting upset? Because I was wondering.
