In The UK, Costco Offers A Full-Size F1 Simulator
Have you ever wanted a life-size F1 simulator? Yeah, me too. Well today that dream is a little bit closer to reality with the news that Costco will be offering them. Unfortunately, they’re only available in the UK with a price tag of $136,000.
You’ll get a cockpit, brakes, tires, and three LCD screens powered by an Intel I7 processor. It appears these will not be sold in stores. Those wanting to purchase one will have to buy it and then wait 12-18 weeks for delivery. When IG moves into it’s new office (and wins the lotto), we’ll have to consider one of these for the lobby.

More From The Loafer’s Car Club Show: Dodge Dart GT, Mustangs, and Imports
With 300 cars at the show it’s no surprise I have a lot of material to post. I’m sure you guys won’t mind if I continue to do so. The weather for the show was great; as were the cars. In this piece we’ll take a look at a few convertibles like the sweet Dodge Dart pictured below, and a little something we don’t feature very often: the Nissan 350z. Also included are a few Fords, and a Shelby.
There’s something here for everyone to help you get through your Monday.

Panther Pink Dodge Challenger
The hi impact colors that Mopar released it’s muscle and pony cars with in the 1960s and 1970s are a thing of legend. With awesome names like Plum Crazy, Sublime, Sassy Grass and of course Panther Pink how could you not love them? Unfortunately Dodge these days has lost it’s sense of humor, or sure every year there is some new special edition high impact color but since most of America just wants what I call “suburbia silver” and “boring ass bronze” on their cars these days Dodge has largely quelled the awesomeness that is the high impact color. Fortunately for those of us who don’t take our selves too seriously the Mopar collectors of the world have kept these gems of a by gone era in pristine condition for a new generation of car guy to see.
A few very brave souls ordered their Mopar muscle in Panther Pink. Like this Challenger. Ok, this Challenger was not Panther Pink from the factory but as a tribute to the Panther Pink cars this owner decided to restore his beautiful Challenger in Panther Pink. It takes some seriously huge balls to paint your car pink.

Sunday Commentary: classic trucks, hot rods, and some muscle cars
Sunday Commentary week in review
by Jason
With the good weather finally here in the Midwest Infinite Garage finally can be what I’ve hoped it would be for a very long time. That is a place for all of you to come and see a great variety of cars that we are fortunate enough to shoot in our travels. I hope everyone is enjoying seeing all the cars as much as we are shooting them. With the rain gone at least for now our schedule is filling up which should mean the goods keep coming.
Of course we will also continue to bring you the latest new from the car world as well as race recaps which have grown quite popular here on the site. Probably because our own Renowrench has done such an awesome job covering the events.
