Proof that the recession doesn't quite effect us all equally.

Here you go, boys! If you can't own one, you might be able to rent one!

I'd rather have a ZR1. or a supercharged Lotus Elise!

There's a reason why it ride on a trailer... so it can get to destination! Those Italian beauty are expensive and cost even more to maintain. There's a shop down in Miami where I work sometime on weekend. That's all they do Ferrari's. The owner has one, he spend more time fixing it then riding it. Need to replace brake rotors and pads on one of those (Carbon composite) $25 000.00! That doesn't include labor... That's what I've been told. Get yourself a nice Corvette... for a sports car, it's the best BANG for the $$$.

Hence the ZR1 comment lol

Want to just beat the shit out of one on a track at least once, then just have some good old german engineering from bmw

 

[Marthy]

Hence the ZR1 comment lol

Ever saw one of those? It's an Ariel. I don't think they are street legal, but it's a really cool track car. Powered by a 2.0L Supercharge Honda engine (about 300 HP) :thumbup:

Saw it on BBC Top Gear (The only Top Gear, the one the US is trying to make is plain **** on bread).

Anyway the Ariel is mean as hell and if I remember right they are street legal

 

[Uno979]

The guy probably won it at a casino in Bossier City/Shreveport.. There are no exotic dealers other than Porsche, Audi next door to where I live.

My turn off of the highway to work takes me right by a Ferrari/Maserati/Lamborghini dealership.... we see the techs taking the service cars out for a "test ride" all the time on this loop:

You are asking the wrong question, you should be wondering how much that car weights. Think of it as a 300hp engine strapped to your behind, you do the math hahahhaha. That is one fast rocket, seen it in action in one episode of the proper Top Gear.
Here's the video: [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WaWoo82zNUA"]YouTube - Top Gear - Ariel Atom - BBC[/ame]

 

[iSpoolin]

I figured that it weighed like nothing lol, but still with like 400 Horses how amazing would that be? and Torque is the biggest factor when it comes to picking up and going. Torque is for low end speed, HP is for High end.

Is it just by chance that the route looks quite phallic??

But it weight 1/4 lbs of your car too...

Hehehe, okay check this: Ariel Atom 500 V8 | Ariel Atom USA

Race specification components are specified throughout the Atom V8 and reflect the extraordinary levels of performance that the car offers. With over 500bhp available the Atom V8 has a power to weight ratio in excess of 900bhp per tonne. (Ferrari Enzo 434bhp per tonne, Bugatti Veyron 530bhp per tonne, GP2 single seater 850bhp per tonne). Race car acceleration and up to 200mph for this ultimate Atom set a new level in trackday cars.

A F1 car has about 1500 bhp per tonne a Bugatti Veyron 530 bhp per tonne, I'm sure 900 bhp per tonne will not disappoint .

i love the way ferrari's look on the outside, but i cannot stand the fugly, puke-colored tan/ beige colored interiors that they insist on using... xP
