you really think a viper is a bad car, what about the STR10 which was made with the help of Lamborghini. the STR10 is of the most loved car out there. FACT

 

I'm not the public masses. I don't love massive horsepower. I don't like drag racing. I drive for the enjoyment of it. I love curves and corners. I love light well handling cars.



I'm ABNORMAL according to American statistics.


That just means I'm not another piece of cattle following the herd. I like being unique. I love being outside the norm. I love not being like other people.

 

ok i will stop if people are getting mad. sorry.

 

Debunked.

Hrm. I don't see the Viper.

And actually, only 6 of those aren't Asian.

 

I mean we all need a bit of horsepower. but the way he put it was like HP is everything. and handling < power. and Renesis suck *** --- (I thought he knows all about engines)

There was an Evolution this past Saturday's AutoX. not sure what kind of power he is putting down but I'm sure he mod it somewhat. He tried real hard but his time wasn't all that impressive, in fact he broke his fender undercover during one of the run. my friend's 8 actually ran better time.

power ? hmm ?

 

I also know that Lamborghini got out run by cars with lower hp. FACT if I have that kind of money I rather get a LF-A or A8 than getting a Lambo anyday.

SRT-10 you mean ? most loved car out there? to you or the world ?

 

i actually agree with you, i would rather be driving a porsche 911 turbo with a v6. but if it came down to power of handling i would go with power.

 

Agreed. Last year, in my novice year, I was never beaten in raw time by a single "muscle car", including Corvette, Corvette Z06, 3 different variants of Mustangs including a Shelby Supersnake, and a 650hp Camero with the Lingenfelter package S/C.


I was rarely able to beat the 100-140hp Miatas...

 

So actually you agree with me, but you don't have the ***** to BE different. So you just follow the HP muscle car masses and got a Camero.



Understood.

 

the SRT10 is one of the most loved car for hardcore car enthusiasts. not the average person

 

Fixed.


Most "hard core enthusiasts" actually prefer far more rounded cars. They respect the Viper for what it is, but never love it. It is harsh, beating the hell out of it's driver. No actual driver likes that.


None.

 

i wanted a 370z, but i would rather mod a v8. just cheaper with more options. so it came down to which is better to mod. engine wise

 

well that is a debate for another day. but i would still take a viper over a mitia anyday

 

*sigh* hp again. w00t its everything. The American way !

 

 

When i get rid of my RX8, i'm going to buy an R3!

Go eff yourself rx8r3mike.

 

You sure you want that? cuz you will automatically be "gay"

 

idk what you are talking about rx8 are sexy cars. matia = gay not rx8

 

I'm alright with being gay as long as i own an RX vehicle. I have owned 2 FC's one a T2 and one a GTUs (wish i never sold), and a hyundai, without a doubt the RX8, to this date, is still one of the most pure drivers cars to own, and i would not trade that for any amount of horsepower/tq or fuel mileage.



The fastest car is not the best car. To each their own, i love my car.

 

That's gay

 

I have a headache after reading this.

 

running at 83K miles original engine. Look at my fuel logs as well and you will see I keep very close track of them. My worst ever in the 8 was around 11mpg and that was due to me idling to much. I drive with a vacuum gauge, and take care to not to make it jump around to much. I found as long as your steady with it you can improve your fuel mileage (which makes sense). My coils are also running at around 67K miles at this point. They were replaced when the engine was at 16K miles. But for the most part I have tried to keep perfect fuel logs, I have missed the bullet on a couple of track events but if you look I do have a number of them running at 14mpg. I was also able to run 25.9 mpg using the same technique and alot of patience.

Also remember dallas is only at about 600feet msl so we can get more out of fuel due to our low elevation. Keep that in mind with the unusually cold winter we have had which adds more oxygen to the air. I have only recently started keeping precise fuel logs, so we will see what happens when the temps reach around 103 degrees and our air is much thinner. I do however sometimes run 100-93 octane mixed, as well as occassionally throwing in some 100LL or even 110LL.

 

i like the srt10 viper... just saying =] and the zr1's performance is so intense, especially for it's price.. it's fast and can handle like a beast.

 

Have an Excedrin.

 

^+1

i can't believe i actually read some of it.

This sounds like a better idea after reading some of the posts....
