ENTER! Misc. Av Contest: Vrrroom!

Hmm, I'm either gonna go with one of my old, actually used avs, the more artsy one:

Or with this, the more vrrroom one:

Both depicting one of the most beautiful planes ever, the Supermarine Spitfire.
I'd go with the second, quite the low flying aircraft.

Yep. The other one is nice, but you should definitely go with the low flyby. Very cool and exciting, and right out of North by Northwest.

It's promo art, I couldn't find any actual photographs of it, hope it's okay. It's the Phoenix 1000 luxury submarine.

There are no actual photographs of it because it doesn’t exist yet. The company’s waiting for a customer to write them a $78 million check.

If it ever actually gets made, the Phoenix 1000 will be one of the coolest seagoing vessels ever built. But, with a surface cruising speed of 16 knots (30 km/h) and a maximum submerged speed of 10 knots (18.5 km/h), it won’t exactly “vroom.” So I’m not sure if it qualifies.

My original post said:
Any vehicle that zooms along, is fast, powerful, makes you want to put the pedal to the metal, etc. Cars, planes, trains, rockets, bikes, boats, subs---anything.
I'm not sure that a hypothetical 30mph or less qualifies as "zooms along, fast, or powerful." Maybe a military sub or speedboat would be a better entry. You still have until Wednesday to come up with another one.
 
OK. Entry thread is closed. Poll goes up soon. I decided to allow Kai's, even though it's not exactly Zoom-Worthy. What the hey.

eta: voting thread is HERE.
