RICE or MUSCLE????
I got a 02 Corvette Z06 Lingenfelter 427 Corvette Twin-Turbo. It Costed me 180,000 when It was all Said and Done. It is one Bad A$$ Car. Fast as He11. I will race any with this Car. I'm putting around 800 850 Horse with it and I mean its Awesome. The Dealer Told me that It will do 0 to 100 around 4 seconds. And in the Quarter in the low 8's. If You dont believe I will Try to get my Scanner Working to show it off. I tear Vipers, Diablos and Other Cars new A$$ wholes and they paid just around the Same if Not more.

So, TTL, you're not impressed by 390 rear wheel horsepower from 282 cubic inches? What planet are you living on????[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img]
Them are real numbers too, not some snot box kid with NOS on his Supra that took a guess.

I don't think it puts 390 to the ground.

All that power would be a waste with FWD, but the AWD really makes that car fun from a stoplight. It will hang with my car up to about 50 mph which puts it far, far *faaarrrrrr* ahead of anything off a showroom floor.I like them all, but it really is alot easier to build up a Mustang than any other car out there. New Cobra Mustangs are incredibly fast, and with about $1500 worth of bolt ons they run well into the 11s which is $80K Viper territory and well beyond any Z06 that doesn't have nitrous or a blower.But the Z06 is easily the best total package for the money spent today. It handles and brakes as well as any $200K car, and can make more power than most of them with a Procharger for about $5K.

Also for the guys dissing the Japanese domestic cars as being ricers and being slow... blah blah... In my view, ricers are morons in cavaliers and civics with coffee cans and stickers.... I'm no ricer and have no real preference for either domestic or foreign... But those real japs (Supras, Skylines, Rotary RX7s) are as FAST as domestics with twice the displacement.
Try the Titan Motorsports Street Driven Supra... 1100+ HP on the bottle and 8.9's on the track... This is from a teeny weeny motor.
Try the 1999 Nissan Skyline GTR R34. It has handling and suspension NO DOMESTIC CAR COULD EVER DREAM OF plus the power to run with most big bores... Since there are HP limits in Japan, these cars are highly detuned and UNDERRATED at 285hp from a 2.6 liter twin turbo engine (RB26DETT).. They can easily put out 375+ with not much mods. I've heard of some stock-bore skylines breaking 1200-1300 HP on the bottle and like 1000 all motor... And not to mention the best AWD system in the world will waste those front engine rear-drive Domestics on the track too.
Like I said, I have nothing agaisnt domestic muscle (actually I love em just as much), but stop hating and making stereotypes of Japs.
But please, go ahead, and hate those DAMN civic/cavalier/CRX ricers... I just hate em so much...
