Oh that's a terrible shame. Chevelle is another fantastic classic.

Why would you want a jet that looked like gen itals?

That actually made me chuckle.

i like the mercedes SL65 AMG better.

the speed on that car is above the carrera GT. it go up to 220 mph

I pick my car on smoothness of ride, aesthetics of body, and sound of engine. Maybe how fast it can accelerate. 65's the max, what's the point of having a car that goes 220 as opposed to a car that goes 200?

yea.... none of us race.

Yeah, I'm perfectly fine with a car that can at least hit 140 hp.. as long as it has a ton of torque and good handling.

To each their own. And yeah, the SL is much faster, but also a lot more expensive.....I'm thinking cars I would actually own with my budget.

If I lived in a city like NY, I wouldnt bother having a car.

Racing in a supercar is really stupid. Agreed?

But, to answer the dude's question that you answered, it's really just to say you have it...and MAYBE open 'er up one late night when no cops are around.

if you know how to drive then no its not. just gotta watch out for cops. ive street raced before

Sure, but in a supercar, it's stupid. Jay Leno once said that only an idiot would take their ultra expensive supercar to the max because it's only good to do that 3 or 4 times and you're out a $30,000 transmission. (And he owns like....10X as many supercars as you and I will ever see in our life. lol!)

I don't see why one couldn't race a "normal" car, or a car they've modified specifically to race (i.e., racing quality drive shaft...but I've seen a "modded" '67 Camero snap a high-performance (aluminum) drive-shaft just trying the quarter-mile.)

I used to when I was a teenager and I drove an old school monte carlo that I rebuilt (with my brother, of course.) But, those days are over. I drive a Honda Accord, now.

Also, try this next someone pulls up next to you at a redlight: if they make it seem like they are going to race, quickly put your car into neutral, rev-up your engine really high, as though you are going to race. Then, when the light turns green, accelerate REALLY slowly. It's hilarious. I LMAO every time.

Nobody has ever done that to me. Maybe it's cause while restoring my monte carlo I'm driving a

as long as you dont floor it right off the back you wont blow your transmission you just gotta take it easy accelerating depending on which gear your at. you can reach the top speed of your supercar without blowing anything. gonna drain some gas for sure since your RPM is gonna be way at the top.

I don't mean this sarcastically, but, it sounds like you have experience racing supercars???
