There are indeed so many meh hypercars. Honestly the 918 Spyder might be the only one that has excited me. Unless we can retroactively classify the Mclaren F1 or the Ferrari F40/F50 as hypercars?

The GM T50 and the Aston Martin Valkyrie are gonna be good, though

Based on the Google description, I would say those qualify

The big supercar/hypercar differences are design, performance, and rarity — a supercar is a world-class vehicle, but a hypercar pushes the boundaries of the possible while generally being produced in more limited quantities.

He'll also have to do it with a different IP address. Yeah, he'll be easy to spot if he ever shows up again and we all know why. He's the one with the micro penis trying to compensate with his fairy tales.

I don't know if the mods check the IP addresses. Since I've been around here I know of many people that have come back under a different name and if they behaved, the mods left them alone. I also know of some people who came back and acted the same asinine way and were promptly banned again.

AFAIK the IP addresses are checked but probably in an automated manner. I know because I was mistakenly banned a while back. I can't remember the exact message but it was something to the effect that my IP address was invalid aka banned. Of course there are ways around this and I'm pretty sure that's how some of the people in the past came back under different pseudonyms. I just didn't like the principle of being banned (by mistake) and be forced to use an alternative log-in method.

Back on topic but for an ICE vehicle I think I would be very happy to own one of these beauties.

I honestly think they don't care that much unless someone is harassing someone else and they report them or someone is continually trolling like that guy was who just got banned. If you're not bothering anyone and behave, they don't care and leave you alone. I don't think they even care if you've been banned and come back as long as you don't make it obvious and, like I said, behave yourself. I could be wrong but that's what I think based on my observations over the past 7 years.

They do check IP addresses. If one is banned and creates a new username and behaves, it is mostly un-detected. BUT, the second you step out of line, boom banned, no question.


This is from experience, so agreed. But, apparently calling people out for being "idiots" in the nicest way, will also get you banned, even if you're right.

Since you speak from experience I'll assume you're right.

It's not hard to behave here, at least it hasn't been for me. I don't let anything here bother me and I don't look for trouble. That's all that's necessary IMO.

Esteban Yep, he's correct just as I said. It will detect your IP address and block you automatically so you need a different IP address as a result.

It's kind of sad and ironic we're talking about him right here, right now on a "Hypercar" thread though.

Oh and you'll be fine so long as you don't provide details on the harem of women you're bangin' day in and day out and attempting to rub it in people's faces while you're at it. Using the Freedom of Speech card and stating (like a petulant child) "I can post what I want when I want" won't make many friends around here.

It's not, but some people's stupidity is what reeled me in, and of course I didn't have anything nice to say about said stupidity, and bluntness was always the demise.

That was a few years ago though, was more high strung those days. Anymore, I've learned to just not let shit bother me in general, just ignore, and focus on own happiness, as well as family and friends alike. Life is too short to consume any negativity.

All the $ in the world and I'd struggle to think of something I *must* have...Zonda F? ...but have to get used so that sucks.

Probably run out and get the MX-5 ND2 RF no joke. Don't like heavy and big cars.

I agree not to let anything here bother you, like I said. It's supposed to be fun here and if we think that way we'll be okay. There are always assholes with egos. I ignore them.

PS - I'm not perfect though and have lost my temper here in the past.

Let's just say I try to not let anything bother me.

Now back to Hypercars. Whoops! (Already said) lol

Surprised this hasn't been said yet. Bugatti Chiron. 1500HP of sublime acceleration and looks.

Some say if you own one of these, you already own 35 cars, one yacht, a jet, and two helicopters.

If I had even half of all the money, I'd never settle for just one car. If it had to be one, a Ferrari 365GTB has always been in the dream garage. Or a Singer Porsche. Or perhaps a small block Cobra with some engine mods.....

I dunno… it’s nowhere near as ugly as the original, but I’m not sure I would call it good looking. The interior on the other hand not bad. Give me an aston exterior with a bentley interior and mclaren performance… on a toyota budget and I’m all in.
