dizzyg Posted January 31, 2006 Share Posted January 31, 2006 had a look at the morgan ... and IMO (thats ONLY my opinion) its not very good looking ... im sure you will be one of the very few people to own one ... but ya. not my style :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wahaha Posted January 31, 2006 Author Share Posted January 31, 2006 Actually wahaha you are wrong(not trying to be rude) but the 1988 Calloway Corvette "Sledgehammer" is faster than the McLaren F1. Not to burst the bubble, since my original post, a new contender has broken all the records. Bugatti, now under control of the geniuses at VW / Audi. The Veyron hits 60 in 2.5 seconds in 1st gear, and is electronically limitied to 253. It can of course, go to light speed. As witnessed in the video clip below. As quoted by Jeremey Clarkson from the Top Gear review. You can let the mclaren get to 100 mph before setting off in the Veyron, and the Veyron will still beat the mclaren to 200. Top Gear 7x05. As for the morgan. It was tested on Top Gear as well. I forget how they felt about it, but I believe the car is constructed of wood. It has a unique shape, but I'm more for safety and tech gadgets in my Audi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azrael Posted February 1, 2006 Share Posted February 1, 2006 if it's limited to 253, the calloway still is a mile faster? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wahaha Posted April 4, 2006 Author Share Posted April 4, 2006 The speedo on the veyron goes to 420kph, and I'll bet your kidney that it can achieve it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrDad Posted April 11, 2006 Share Posted April 11, 2006 My favorite except mine was green and had original Buick rally wheels. I sold it for a down payment on my first house. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wahaha Posted May 24, 2006 Author Share Posted May 24, 2006 I wouldn't know how to drive a car like that lol. I once drove a crappy rental and forgot how to roll down the window at the ATM because I've been using power windows for so long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wahaha Posted July 11, 2006 Author Share Posted July 11, 2006 And now it's official. The VEYRON is faster 0-100;100-0 than a suzuki gsx1000, and some exclusive high end cars! http://www.rsportscars.com/eng/articles/autocar_0-100-0.asp "The 1890kg Bugatti ripped through the gears to hit 60mph in 2.8sec and 100mph in an astonishing 5.5sec. It then stopped in just 3.4sec' date=' giving a 0-100-0mph time of 9.9sec" (or 8.9 because of miscalculation theories).[/quote'] Some tests though set the 0-60 at 2.5 sec. And that's faster than the calloway corvette 3.9, and I'm sure it can beat the top speed as well at 253+ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest dhorse Posted July 11, 2006 Share Posted July 11, 2006 I'm not sure what my favorite is. Probably one of the Group C racers. Maybe the Peugeot 905B, or the Porsche 962C. I would love to see some of those cars go up against modern LMP cars like the Audi R8's and R10's, or the Pescarolo C60's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hrimmer Posted July 12, 2006 Share Posted July 12, 2006 I once drove a Porche Cayenne... and I fell in love. It was like being held in a wonderful hug. Power, responsivness, amazing sound... Yum My only beef is the horrid gas milage. I just have an issue with cars that get less than 30 MPG... although I'm gonna wait till they get to 50 MPG to get my next car.

wahaha Posted July 12, 2006 Author Share Posted July 12, 2006 Was it the twin turbo Cayenne? Now THAT can legally be recognized as an SUV 450HP, over 165mph. Anything from any other automaker is bullsht and marketing fraud. And if you think your ford or chevy is an SUV, you should be shot into a black hole, to die horribly.
