I'd just like some sports model audi or an M series beamer, that'd be more than fast enough :D

Meanwhile in cuckooland :) "With output bumped up from 1,001 horsepower to 1,200 horsepower, torque swelling to 1,106 pound-feet and a revised aerodynamic kit, Raphanel managed runs of 265.9 and 269.8 mph for an average terminal velocity of 267.81 mph and a new world record for a production car. " mmmmmmmmm



So much for the SCC :D
The ssc has went 275 do some research.

I do agree that for the most part European cars have the upperhand on American cars...but dont be fooled, sometimes good ol American muscle is the way to go :)

look up some videos of a corvette ZR1 or ZO6 against lambos, ferraris, porches etc and you'll see what I mean (they all get spanked :D) a better car for half the price! woot american muscle

Then why would the manufacturer state that 270 is it's top theoretical speed but that it's rated top speed is 257 or whatever it is? I'm just after clarification. All other websites i've looked at websites are stating it at 257 as well.

I've read and watched a video of it going 270, I could have been mis-informed.

But other then that the specs on that car are ridiculous. along with the price.

Man there is an m6 that drives around my town that is dirty as fuck....always, i swear to god ive seen it prolly 6 times and every time it looks like it just drove down a dirt road. who spends 95k on a car and lets it get that dirty.


I love cars, Everything from giant K5s to Vettes, from EVOs(Yes even the new ones) to Integras,Skylines to Malibus, and novas to a 64 Lemans.

Did you even read the article??? It's a model, they have hypothetical expectations of it, and is over a year from completion.
fuck :|. oh well still BA. lmao. And yeah, that guy was hauling ass. I wonder what the speed is where you shatter all glass, knock down signs ect. haha

thats the dodge tomahawk if i remember correct, they could never hit its top speed (or near it) because they couldn't find a rider crazy enough and i dont blame them

lol what a tool !!!!!
wrx sti is over rated
yeah no doubt haha. its not that i think subies are junk, because i think for the price you get a decent car. but anyone who would take a $35,000-40,000 car over a car worth over a mil, is either bullshittin or dumb. i dont know a whole lot bout cars but my favorites have always been the old muscle cars. i swear im going to get a bad motherfucker before i die.
