    My Graber Cars "La Bala" Experience

    So my Magnum has been down at the AEcarbon shop this week for product fitment and I was given the opportunity to drive and photograph this stunning automobile.

    What is it?

    The Graber Cars La Bala ("The Bullet") Prototype

    Weighs 1500lbs, powered by a JDM 1.6L 4AGE blacktop with quad throttle bodies. The particular one that I have been driving is car #0001 - their prototype/mule car. Tube chasis, F1 inspired suspension, composite body. Painted in school bus yellow with a pearl clear with carbon fiber logoing.

    This car is truly a back to basics sports car that every car guy dreams of. I've driven everything from old school muscle SS Camaros and Porsche 914 and 912, Corvettes old and new, 11 second aircooled VWs, a handful of modified LXs and other Mopars. Very few can compare to the experience of driving this car. The connection between the car and driver and the pavement is second to none and thats why I fell in love with the little car. If the handling and skin peeling acceleration isnt enough for you...how about 45MPG in-town. I've been driving all week on $12 worth of 91 octane :mrgreen:.

    The eye candy you've all been waiting for...

    Hey stranger... lol

    Great shots, Ryan.

    I really like the sunset shots. The colors flow well with the Grabber...
