/\ Get someone to move it to the general Automotive :)


Damn that's pretty fast! You could take a mclaren f1 !!

dont want to be an ass but why would we like it!? posting a drag race on a forum where almost most users bought the RX for its handling ability rather then straight line speed. Its like going to nascar and talking about F1 championship.

kevinD1226 06-01-2009 10:57 PM

dude lets b serious here i bet half the people on this forum didnt buy the rx8 cause of its handling and all that other bs, he clearly posted it wasnt the rx so y did you click on it? the guy likes options give em a break

Fast C5, how much are you putting to the wheels?

For one, I only have an evo, but I'm still on this forum.

New guys to the forum always assume you have to defend the rx8 to the end. When in reality tons of us hear no longer have the rx8, never had one, etc, but still contribute quality posts and threads.

pretty fast

not to burst your bubble, but the vette has handling ability too...

i miss my rx8, but it was no where near the be all end all of cars. that vette rocks

Hmm... an Evo owner commenting about a Vette on an RX-8 forum.
That's like seeing an oriental person eating a hamburger in Mexico City.

:lol:

this car is also road raced. Has T1 SCCA suspension shocks and is lowered 1.5" Big sway bars...ect,ect. the Rx8 handles great, but no where near this car

catgut 06-02-2009 11:15 AM

Fast vette, sounds cammed. Nice times.

XlYesterdaYlX 06-02-2009 01:12 PM

That thing sounds mean.

cajunrx8 06-02-2009 05:29 PM

Really nice Vette, what all do you have motor wise?

CyberPitz 06-02-2009 05:36 PM

Why do I have the feeling that if I went near this thing with a kid...I'd get sued for kidnapping as the CAR ATE THE FREAKING KID?

Sweet ride, man. That thing is neck breakingly fast.

So would you bitch out a owner for posting a video of a turbo Rx-8 in the quarter mile? Get real, a Vette will hand most cars their ass on a road track too, many costing twice as much.

good point, best bang for the buck as a sports car in the WORLD, has no challengers on value for price, poor GM

MICHGoBlue 06-02-2009 10:33 PM

umm yeah, C5's handling is better than the RX-8s no question, with brute power available on tap.
Not sure why Corvette's handling ability gets looked past upon, is it because it's "American"?
I know it's crazy to say this, as common as the car is on the road, it truly is one of the most underrated performance machine that can be had (especially used) for great bargains.

Socket7 06-03-2009 08:58 AM

That motor sounds delicious.
