Mexico
2nd November 2015
In good ole Mx, being a poor petrolhead ain´t THAT BAD.
In here, a really beaten up VW Beetle costs around $1000 .And there are spare parts for another 3 centuries. So, the cheapest way to go here is a (probably riced) RWD econoegg. No hate on FWD though
You win a lot with these 10 Classic Cars:
Lambo 350GT
Ferrari 250 GT Berlinetta Lusso
Maserati 3500 GT
Alfa 33 Stradale
Aston DB4 Zagato
E Type Jaguar
Volvo P1800S
Alpine A110
Rolls Royce Phantom 1928
Pontiac Firebird T/A from Smokey and The Bandit
But you forgot to buy a garage and can only have 2. Which ones would you pick?
My cousin gave me a copy of NFS MW 2005 on the release date (it was my birthday also). I still keep it intact.
Oh the memories.
One reason I’m happy of being a Mexican petrolhead is that the government, being AMAZINGLY corrupt, will never approve any bonuses to electric cars. That means the ICEs get another life injection here. And the petrol is cheap (if you live anywhere else).
This could generate CTzens and car guys alike from all around the world to reunite here, generating tourism. Helping our people.
I know it’s sad and cinical maybe, but ut’s true.
Miatas are the cars chosen by actual racers and S2Ks are for hairdressers.
Hi, good morning, evening or night, depending on where an when you’re reading this. I’d like to introduce myself. My name is Fernando. I’m 14 yo and I live in Mexico City.
I’ve been a petrolhead since I can remember. I have a box about (in meters) 1×.5×3 full of Hot Wheels. I had an awful lot of posters with Aston Martins (partly because I love British cars and partly because I’m a James Bond fan), Ferraris, Lamborghinis, etc.
As you could expect, I don’t have a car rather than my mom’s Hyundai Atos Prime ‘02 and my dad’s Pontiac (yes, it was sold under that great brand here) Matiz G2 ‘09.
(I will get a photo of each one)
I study the equivalent of the last year in middle school. I’m about to do the MHSSC (already traduced it means: Metropolitan High School Selection Contest). Perhaps the biggest exam known to a teenager here. If i get the school I want, my mom guarantees me the Atos when I turn 16.
My car bucket list includes:
Mazda Miata RF
Aston Martin DB5, DBS and DB11.
McLaren 570GT
Jaguar Mk2, XK 2007, E-Type 1961.
BMW 1M, M1.
R34 Godzilla Stock
1960s original Mini (the new one is a big pile o’crap.
Corolla Levin AE86
As you can see, I love Grand Tourers overall and I am an Euro man, but I also like JDMs a lot.
I’m not really new. I’ve been around for a month. But I forgot this part for a reason I don’t know.
Well, hello CTzens!
