Vector W8 TwinTurbo by Ricko - "Rising Sun"
Lately I am always looking for particular cars, both from an aesthetic point of view, both from the point of view of the rarity. After sweating seven shirts to find the famous 1959 Chevrolet Corvette (of which I spoke a few days ago) used in the movie "Animal House" (I have found 4 on eBay, but I have 3 sellers then denied the purchase saying that the model was not available or was damaged), so I stumbled into a model that I had already seen some time ago and that had always struck me for its very special sporting lines: I'm talking about the Vector W8 Twin Turbo, the car used in the movie "Rising Sun", a model produced some years ago by Ricko. It should immediately be said that this car you love it or you hate it: I definitely belong to the first category, but I still think that is a crazy car, both for the appearance at times exaggerated, and for some engineering decisions that have did it forefront car during the first 90 years, when it was produced and sold on the American market. So the only solution is to put it in my collection, which definitely stand out alongside other emblazoned sporting cars of the same period (I refer especially to Ferrari and Lamborghini). As usual, have to wait the courier ... in the meantime I will see to ask to produce other shrines to my provider to accommodate all my new purchases!
