918, meet Carrera GT.
Instead of going to Cars & Coffee this weekend, I found myself in Newport, Rhode Island for a weekend with my family (not complaining). However, I had heard about a place in Newport called the Audrain Auto Museum from our very own marshknute, so I decided to check it out for myself. I went there this morning and got to see their Speed Machines exhibit, which is there until next month.
Michael Schumacher once sat in this seat.
Which would you rather?
The quotes on the wall were really cool.
Don’t be fooled by the GT3-R name, this thing is YUGE.
EXPOSED SHIFTER LINKAGE ZOMG EXPOSED SHIFTER LINKAGE
I took lots of pictures of the 918, which was my 2nd favorite car at the museum. I must say, it looks phenomenal in person.
Don’t you hate it when the Veyron gets in your photo?

The following images contain gratuitous amounts of Ferrari F40. Viewer discretion is advised.
I apologize for the glare. The car was directly next to a large window on a sunny day.
The gated shifter, like the rest of the car, is pure art.

Ooooh! A Tungsten Grey Ford GT! My favorite color. Also, there are some other beautiful cars there.

I love that yellow 918! It seems like every other one is painted in boring silver.

The color looked much better than I thought it would. I personally wouldn't want a 918 like that but it did look really nice. I'm not gonna lie, I honestly think the 918 looks better than the LaFerrari.

Wow some serious metal there, I might have to visit sometime.
Also is that orange Spyker an LM85?

Definitely worth it if you’re ever in the area. However the displays rotate, so the same cars might not be there in a few months.
The Spyker is in fact an LM85.

Porsche... I mean, look, Porsche, how hard is it to put the GT3RS skirt decal on the car at launch?

Gonna be totally honest and say I'm not a huge fan of the GT3 RS decal on the 991. Looks fine on the 997 though.
