That bike looks pretty nice. But it seems to me that the weight distribution with that design is fucked. I can see someone just sitting on it and it will flip over on its back, let alone trying to accelerate.

Hrm. It means that, while using the word "clone" is perhaps hyperbole for the sake of making a point, the McLaren posted above looks like it's getting its styling cues from the Audi R8, as does the Ferrari F458 Italia.

o_O

What styling cues does the 458 get from the R8? Two seats? Four wheels?

Those and more!

I think the overall proportions of the two are very similar - and by that I mean the shapes of the glass, a-c pillars, wheel-base length, the 'cab-forward' look. Although I'm only going from the official Ferrari pics, it might look very different when it goes "public".

In other words, if you smoothed over the vents/scoops/head-lamps (the more 'superficial' parts of the design) the cars would look very similar. I prefer a more unique overall shape.

IMO.

Ha, you've just described a modern sports coupe.

What, like... less of a streamlined wedge shape? Like how modern sports coupes usually are?

BTW, the F458 doesn't look a damn thing like the R8.

What's the point of having a pic of the day thread if you can't discuss the pics therein? I thought so. Now fuck off.

I don't know what you guys are complaining about? This place got a little boring during the limbo period of no CCS or Thomas Meatball. I can think of at least 5 boring cunts around here that I'd happily replace with one Mr meaty balls.

Sure, because everybody stops posting at an insignificant number like 29,999 and starts again with a new nickname, same old persona.

You just don't get it. But I'm going to help you out. I'm quote to quote a wise person:
Quote:
Hey shitnugget, I didn't realise I was getting close to some wonderful post milestone until Simon made a point of announcing it via the forum index. Then everybody made a song and dance about it and made a thread in my honour. I said that I'd wait til I got to 29,999 posts, retire my ccs account and come back with another username. And guess what? I did exactly that!
If I gave such a shit about getting a huge post count, why would I ditch the account at 29,999? Entries on the back of a postcard.

You're all a bunch of moaning ass bitches! That's why I love visiting nzgames. Don't need soaps when shit is such gold!

So no one please leave, it's all the more fun with you all here complaining about life, other people and your own inadequacies.

It doesn't move right (look at the left arm). I suspect it's a realdoll.
