This 90-second ad allegedly costs over six mil dollars to make and took over 600 takes and retakes. No CGI was used just pure human calculated precision. It also won many awards.
Seriously, this commercial kicks ass. Not serious, you’ve got to ask yourself why the hell do you spend over six mil on an ad? The Blair Witch Project costs just below 30 thousand dollars to make and if you include the rights Artisan doled out for the rights to show it at Sundance it just goes a notch the one mil mark, Six mil is a lot of money for pure precision I say. Then again, six mil on meth is just so uber costly. The guys err retards or meth-heads I know can do this at less than one percent of the cost and that’s meth included.
UPDATE: OK, I stand corrected, I asked the meth-heads and they’re asking that I up the ante by two percent, according to them, it’ll take them a week or two to replicate this ad plus they have to be on meth all the time and they might be in danger of losing their sanity. Geez! Those freaks! As if they’re still sane. When I was talking to John (real name withheld upon request) his brother Jim, as of this writing, was rewriting the bible.
UPDATE: Jim has rewritten the bible!
Thanks to riain for the tip and the permission who I still owe a Skyliner before Tiesto arrives here again at Manila. I’ll try to make good on that promise bro, I just have to break out of this prison called Tambayan.ph. You see those sweatshops? Those are haven compared to the cramped-up place they detain us to write posts like this. We eat once every two days, that is if we post at least one topic per day. Do the math. See the authors list on the right column? Those below 10 posts might have died of hunger already. I wouldn’t know because we’re locked-up in single-holding cells.
EDIT/ADD: Damn! This is a very long post. I know Ryman is a good sport and he won’t starve me or kill me after I revealed Tambayan’s secret.
If you like more handling than top speed, then this version of the Almighty R35 GTR is what you need. Sporting the red/black color combination, this beast is specialized for more braking and cornering stability.
Garage Defend says yes and equipped this R35 with genuine DEFEND Carbon Canards on the front bumper but also a GT V-spec MASK (front carbon grill), VOLTEX GT wing, they lowered the car by a good 3 centimeters and also added a Blitz NUR-specF-Ti a muffler to complete the look.
It’s not a bird, it’s not a plane. It’s Darth Vader. And this hot air balloon is way too cool for me. I want one, very badly, however, I’m pretty sure that this one is way out of my budget so I’m planning to hijack this instead that is if they grant my request that I spend a day in it with my dog. Dog? You ask? Well, my dog is the only creature I know who can spend a whole day with me minus the nagging. If I bring my girl in this thing for one day, it sure would be cool to be a member of the mile high club in a hot air balloon. But what you think is not what’s gonna happen because all she does is nag and nag and nag. I’ll end up throwing her over when we’re mile high and then what would happen? Me, alone. Nah, I stick with my dog.
Like the real deal, the FXX Racer pedal car comes equipped with a seven-speed transmission, an on-board computer, disc brakes, semi-slick racing tires and styling, which, as you can see, is modeled on Maranello’s developmental track-car. For those to whom cost is no object, the FXX Exclusive (pictured above) upgrades with a premium racing bucket and four-point harness, leather steering wheel and even an aero kit.
I remember my childhood days. And I don’t remember anyone sane enough to give me presents like this pedal car. Because if ever someone did. I wouldn’t have deteriorated to what I am now. No car. No work. No friends. No wives. Yeah! You got it right! Wives! If I ever had this when i was a kid I would be moving on to those real Ferrari monsters when I grow old. And when you drive a Ferrari you can have as many wives as you want. But now I’m at the bottom of the pits so I’ll just probably bury my self in this shit and dig all the way down to Ecuador. So a piece of advice to all those parents out there, buy your kid this one. You don’t want them growing up below the food chain like me.
In honor of Saleen’s twenty fifth anniversary, the specialty manufacturer has decided to produce an extremely limited edition car to mark the occasion. Just 25 Sterling Edition S302E’s will be produced for sale. The Sterling edition has a host of upgraded and unique features; Inside the cabin is very handsome black alcantara leather with silver stitched seating, iPod connectivity, a dash mounted start button and above that a 16oz solid sterling silver serialized medallion.
On the outside, you’ll find custom 20″ five spoke wheels, hand painted anniversary logos, billet emblems, and carbon fiber splitters front and rear. Under the hood you’ll find a specially modified V8, which is of course supercharged to an ungodly (and we hear underrated) 620 horsepower and 600 lb.ft. of torque paired to a short shifting six speed and reined in by 15″ cross drilled stoppers.
That’s all well and good, but how fast? We tried to nail down General Manager Marques McCammon on a 0-60 time, but the best he would give us was “Less than 4 seconds, and that’s all I’m going to say”. Don’t let the $100,000 price tag scare you, it’s actually closer to $99,995. Along with that price, the Sterling Edition also comes with total VIP care during the purchasing process. Each owner will be treated to first class airfare for two to Detroit, limo transit, first class accommodations, meals with Saleen Execs, plant tours, an embroided jacket (numbered to match the car – natch), a car cover and a photo album of the build.
