Heavenly CTS-V Coupe
While visiting a friend in Jersey this weekend, I stopped to get some cheap gas and saw this Cadillac CTS-V Coupe. After talking with an employee, I found out that the owner of the car also owns a new Camaro and a Plymouth Prowler (both of which I’ve seen before)… but this is my favorite out of the three. If you look closely, you’ll notice a strange tint to the racing stripes. It’s because they’re glow-in-the-dark.
And those little stickers on the front, rear, and sides that look like they read “Hennessey” actually say Heavenly. I asked about it because he has those stickers on the other cars as well, but the guy didn’t know why.
Wonder what upgrades it has underneath?

Car & Coffee
Another 991 on the road. Spotted while test driving my Buick Verano Turbo press car, which there will hopefully be a review for up and published by the end of this week.
The driver was all over the place and we were wondering why at the time. The only reason I could imagine were the Florida plates…
Then after looking back through photos, you’ll notice he’s drinking a hot coffee.
(Update: There are cup holders hidden above the glove box. Thanks Thesmithtravelblog.)

The Sky Was Blue
Spotted this 1975 Triumph TR6 in Harrison, NY. Inline-6, 4-speed manual transmission, an independent rear suspension, and the funky workings of British engineering would make for one hell of a thrilling drive. And it looks great with that factory hardtop and French Blue paint.

Hawk’s Nest Face-off:
Saturday was the day Danny and I headed out to meet a friend at Hawk’s Nest, just outside of Port Jervis, NY. The road is well paved, has some great twists and turns, there’s not too much traffic, and oh yes, it’s built on the edge of a cliff overlooking the Delaware River with a 2-foot tall wall as a barrier. If that’s not good enough, the speed limit is 55mph (25mph cautionary).
Even though it was a good hour and a half drive to get there and the said road is only a few miles (if that) long, it’s absolutely worth it to go. Even if you don’t love to drive, the views are spectacular.
Danny drove his 2003 Nissan 350Z with me in the passenger seat and Thomas drove solo in his 2009 Subaru WRX. Of course the WRX was hard to keep up with having AWD and all, but the 350Z did its job well, sticking the turns tight to give me an over-the-cliff sort of feeling. But the WRX could take the turns at much higher speeds and kept its momentum out of the turns. I’ll stick to the thought that we were on the edge of our seats more than Thomas though, and for that the ride was exhilarating.
The 350Z has all the track edition upgrades including Brembo brakes with Stop-tech drilled and slotted rotors beneath some black, 18-inch Emotion XD9 wheels sitting on federal tires. Eibach springs, Tokico struts and SPC camber kit make up the suspension while the air in and out include a K&N cold air intake, DC Sports headers, Berk high flow cats, and a gurgly Borla exhaust system. All this is balanced out with an Uprev tuning system to get the job done right. Even with all these upgrades, the almost 100% stock WRX couldn’t be caught, but that was also due to the fact that Danny just bought the car a few weeks ago so he’s still getting used to it, and oh yeah, the tire had a leak that was just fixed in the morning and the tire pressure light came on just before Hawk’s Nest, so he was taking it a bit easy.
While Hawk’s Nest is fairly short in distance, it and other great tri-state roads haven’t seen the last of us as I’m sure we’ll being heading out soon with some larger packs of cars in search of some extensions in the near future.

But the WRX could take the turns at much higher speeds and kept its momentum out of the turns. I’ll stick to the thought that we were on the edge of our seats more than Thomas though, and for that the ride was exhilarating.
The 350Z has all the track edition upgrades including Brembo brakes with Stop-tech drilled and slotted rotors beneath some black, 18-inch Emotion XD9 wheels sitting on federal tires. Eibach springs, Tokico struts and SPC camber kit make up the suspension while the air in and out include a K&N cold air intake, DC Sports headers, Berk high flow cats, and a gurgly Borla exhaust system. All this is balanced out with an Uprev tuning system to get the job done right. Even with all these upgrades, the almost 100% stock WRX couldn’t be caught, but that was also due to the fact that Danny just bought the car a few weeks ago so he’s still getting used to it, and oh yeah, the tire had a leak that was just fixed in the morning and the tire pressure light came on just before Hawk’s Nest, so he was taking it a bit easy.
While Hawk’s Nest is fairly short in distance, it and other great tri-state roads haven’t seen the last of us as I’m sure we’ll being heading out soon with some larger packs of cars in search of some extensions in the near future.

Hawk’s Nest Face-off:

Saturday was the day Danny and I headed out to meet a friend at Hawk’s Nest, just outside of Port Jervis, NY. The road is well paved, has some great twists and turns, there’s not too much traffic, and oh yes, it’s built on the edge of a cliff overlooking the Delaware River with a 2-foot tall wall as a barrier. If that’s not good enough, the speed limit is 55mph (25mph cautionary).

Even though it was a good hour and a half drive to get there and the said road is only a few miles (if that) long, it’s absolutely worth it to go. Even if you don’t love to drive, the views are spectacular.

Danny drove his 2003 Nissan 350Z with me in the passenger seat and Thomas drove solo in his 2009 Subaru WRX. Of course the WRX was hard to keep up with having AWD and all, but the 350Z did its job well, sticking the turns tight to give me an over-the-cliff sort of feeling. But the WRX could take the turns at much higher speeds and kept its momentum out of the turns. I’ll stick to the thought that we were on the edge of our seats more than Thomas though, and for that the ride was exhilarating.

Wildhorse on the Plates
Stumbled upon this beautiful early Fastback in pristine condition this afternoon. A seriously loud car… I heard it drive away 20 minutes after I took these photos, but I couldn’t see it because I was a mile from where it was parked at the time.

Driving on 95N toward Connecticut this morning, I snuck up on this and my wife managed to get these shots of it. 
From a distance, it looked like a 300SL rear end so I sped up and saw that it was a 1964 Porsche 356 SC Cabriolet, the most powerful (at 95hp haha) and final 356 before the 911 replaced it completely.
It looked to be in pretty great shape, aside from a missing rear grille over the engine. Hope it’s being driven to a good new owner.

If you’ve been following this blog long enough, then you’ve probably seen this 944 before because it was mine. I bought it to restore and that I did. It was a tough job, seemed endless at times. But the result was well worth it. Wish I still had that car.

One of the baddest Defender One Tens (correction 109, thanks to landroverphilippines) I’ve ever seen. Downtown Manhattan.

This thing was a monster. I would want none other for an apocalypse vehicle.
