I thought it was shitty how they think they can just park in disabled spaces because they own a Ferrari, then I noticed the the blue badge on the dash, how can you be disabled enough to qualify for a blue badge but yet still be capable of using something like that properly?  What's happening to the world?
Seriously, I saw a brand new red dodge charger parked in a handicapped spot today at school, I was like wtf.. ALSO when they drive a escalade or truck and their handicapped? boggles my mind!
You only need 1 leg to drive(an automatic transmission at least).

my grandpa has a handicapped, and he has some pretty bad back problems. he has trouble walking a long lenght (I.E th eback of a parking lot) But his DD is a 700hp TT vette with 15psi MT. He has no problem. Infact, he won the silver state challenge a few years back

Sorry about the quality, my phone isn't exactly new and he was pulling away as I took the shot.

Made me laugh, old 3 series, he's gone to the trouble of scraping all the paint off and letting it rust, the back says "In rust, we trust" theres a little plaque bolted to the driver side wing, to cover up a hole I presume, that says "SURRENDER YER BOOTY", it's covered in (now very faded) celtic crosses and whatnot, I'm surprised I've not seen it around before.

Oh there's an Alpha 147 GTA in front of me if you want something fast to look at

It's totally psychotic, waaaaaaaay more power than a front wheel drive can handle lol, very pretty tho and on the road the scary handling doesn't really affect it.

Haha is it?

186.4 kw / 250 bhp @ 6200 rpm

Damn! 183.82 bhp per tonne

That's a lot for a hatchback to handle!

I'd consider getting one if I came into a lot of cash, nice normal looking car 'til you floor it and the tires fly off.

Personal taste thing I guess I cant get enough of the interior's of Alfas and the outside is pretty as fuck too, you can spot an Alfa a mile off too, nothing really looks like them. Anyhoo we seem to be spamming the thread so I'm going to go make a brew

Haha aright, not to take anything from the Alfa, but i'm just a sucker for the R32, the 147 is quite a car also.

Driven both the Alfa is just generally nicer all round, the R32 only really shines when you're flat out, and as I'm not a boy racer I'd rather have the Alfa

Hmmm, I'm gonna stick my neck out and say he might have been going for the "rat" look.
