fast cars for lames

i really hate that good car manufactures are catering to posers. you know, you just shouldnt be able to buy a Ferrari with a damn automatic transmission..makes my stomach sick. if these yuppie lames cant drive a stick, buy a Mercedes and call it a day.

I'd have to agree. But if they were giving me one I'd take an auto

the new z06 is pretty damn fast..... 505 horsepower in an approximately 3130-pound package. 0-60 performance of less than 4 seconds. it hits the quarter-mile in less than 12 seconds and delivers a top speed of more than 190 mph on a race track.

Sinc eyou are bashing those that buy these cars, I assume you are driving a hardcore car like a 911Gt2?

I mean, why would anyone need a 911 Turbo Tiptronic with AWD and and automatic that most drivers can get around a racetrack faster with than the same car with the six speed.

Of coarse you are probably driving a Ruf RGT which I guess would qualify you as capable of bashing the posers who buy 911 Turbo Tips.

So tell, me, how fast is your exotic car?

+1 for the new ZO6. Dollar for dollar it's the best deal out there. The power to weight ratio is crazy. Spend $67000 on a zo6 then put $10000 into it with a few motor mods and a few suspension tweaks and that baby will kick any Italian sports cars butt. Plus you can save a ton of cash. I'll take mine in blue w/competion grey wheels

Hmmm. I don't get it. You are the one who started this with calling people posers, not me.

I don;t need an autoshift kit (airshifter, holeshot, etc). I am done with getting that radical for drag racing. Besides I can shoft well enough manually. I had my days of drag racing motorcycles (and I always ran without electronics, no two-step, etc). I ran a GSXR11 with an 8 over arm (and the power to go alondg with it). I bought the Hayabusa for a fast street ride. I have already played around with trying to use a race bike on the street.

I got bored with drag racing and decided to go road racing. The wrecked and really looked at how much $$ racing cost. Pretty much gave up racing motorcycles.

Besides, the busa is fast enough. I have had it since 99 when they came out. I think it stayed stock for a month? But its still perfectly streetable.
