Alex and I are talking about random crap, from Jane Austin to the new Mustang. We are discussing why this car should be the "jalop car of choice."

What is this? Seen a few photos of it today. Don't have GT6, currently too broke to afford fun things since all I do is buy car/bike parts.

Cizeta v16t. Yes as in v16 engine. Can't remember the exact reason but there is a very good one as to why it basically looks like a four eyed diablo.

Cizeta-Moroder V16T - in the engine compartment is basically two V8's mated together:

The V16T signifies that its engine is a V16 unit mounted Transversely in the central rear position, just forward of the rear axle and behind the passenger seats. However, the engine was not a true V16. Rather, it was engineered from the ground up as two flat plane V8s sharing a single block , mounted transversely , with gearing between the two providing a single output from the center of the engine assembly to the longitudinal transmission .

Quite the interesting car. For all that there are the odd examples floating around, and that the company claims it will still build you one, it's as much vapour-ware as the Vector ever was

not brown, not rotary, not diesel, not a wagon. The Jalop is strong with this one, but it's not really oddball enough to take the top spot.

Cizeta V19. The most insane car ever made. Latitude v16 engine, too many headlights, and you can still buy one new. Look it up, it is ridiculously interesting.

It has quad pop ups 'cause the Diable was supposed to have them but the designer got fired or quit or something very Italian happened and he made his own car. That was the Cizeta V16T. Fact.

It has two v8s welded together, 4 popup headlights, no mpgs, did I mention that the engine is transversely mounted, it also only came with a manual, and to top it off the entire thing looks like the fever dream of a 5 year old! How is it not the most jalop car?

Every supercar looks like the fevered dream of a five year old. Quad headlights would be odd if the F40 hadn't happened. Not the first T mounted, mid engine supercar. It's rare for any car to have 16 cylinders in it, but supercars are supposed to have all the things. The P1, F50 (not calling it by it's real dumb name) and veneno would all have 16 cylinder engines if we weren't living in the pre-peak oil era.

As a car overall, yes, very Jalop. But as a super car...a lot of this stuff is standard fare, and to be expected. Not really oddball enough to be the most Jalop car ever.

So what this video is telling me is that there is a V16T living somewhere in Orange County that I didn't know about? Hot damn my old hometown (err, county. . .) had some weird cars with some incredibly rich people with weird tastes. . .

My internet took a shit and was broken from ~6 p.m. to ~11 p.m. PST. It snowed well really it fell and then melted immediately once it touched something so I'm assuming people stayed home and shitty comcast can't keep their shit together well enough to provide adequate service. . . But I won't be able to pick up GT6 till january or so. Next time I'll be up for playing as long as it is after my finals. . .

Why is the plate mounted onto another plate ? Was this car in any other country before ?

Quite likely - production has been in a few places, if memory hasn't completely failed me.

Little bit jelly m'self - I've seen exactly One Tesla up here in Saskatoon, and while there's an R8 at the A-oodi dealer, I've never seen it on the street.

That's another reason I miss living in BC - the selection of foreign iron out there can be breath-taking!

Yeah it was pretty awesome living there and being able to see some cool cars out on the roads. I will say it gets a little desensitizing when you see 458's and Gallardos and the occasional Aventador pretty much every day or you have a chance to see one. I have seen a Veyron out in the wild and I just about shit my self the first time and then I saw it out about another 10 times and I'm pretty sure it was the one responsible for getting a ticket for going 220 mph and sending it into Top Gear.

Looks to be a British licence plate with Charles Wright 1935 font, either private plate or is an 'M' registered car which would make the car registered in between august 1994 and august 1995.
