Would love to take this to my local car show



from the article:
An individual in Britain has just listed his car for sale. He is asking £250,000 for it, which sounds a bit steep, considering the car in question is second hand, has only one seat, and no boot… Until you realize it is actually a genuine and fully functioning 2007 Red Bull F1 car!

from the article:
This is one of the most rarest opportunities in life, own a Formula 1 car that has been owned by Mr. Jenson Button. This F1 car was used in the F1 season back in 2004, now ten years and many cars later, Mr. Button decides to sell his BAR Honda F1 which still is in mint condition.

ten years doesn't seem like a long time but that car looks like a pig compared to today's cars. And before you guys get all fluffed about it, I mean in that it's just simple, the sidepods are huge, and there's little aero complexity in comparison.

I personally think that the cars from back then looked better than they do in 2014, but looks are subjective at best!

[What's Burning?]

My favorites era as far as "looks" was the late 80's early 90's.

[myownalias]

I certainly liked the cars when they were wider and low slung, so the 80s/90s would fit the bill, this year with the stupid nose regs made the cars look like a joke!

[What's Burning?]

When I heard about the low nose approach, my heart skipped a beat thinking we'd get something like that 80's 90's era.

I liked the 2004-2008 period of cars with aero bits making them look like alien spacecrafts...and finally abolished by the FIA due to looking like....alien spacecrafts.

Remember the x - wing cars... horrible, just horrible.
