Originally posted by biznology cmon, the mcclaren has the drivers seat in the middle with 2 passnger seats! you can get 2 women in there! plus they are all sold, so i would imagine youd have to pay more than a million dollars for it anyways...i certainly would like one tho...i wasted a whole roll of film taking pictures of the one in the McClaren Dealership/Musem/Store/Thingy in London...late/

of course they're all sold!! They stopped making them over 2 years ago. Bad-ass or not that car was the most grossly overpriced car ever made..... one million for a CAR? come on, thats just ridiculous. Also that Nissan Supercar... it was also One Million. I see a pattern here... all the $1 million-dollar supercars only sell for a couple of years, maybe 10 units or so, then you never hear about them again.

Yeah, I've seen it in a mag, the Mercedez..

I rather have a car I can tune and tweak around with. I like sleeper cars rather the *brand name* ones. Certain imports tuned to the max could equal the performance of these bloated overpriced cars and still cost much less..

Jap's Skyline 1200HP would put some of these baddies to shame..

Rice rice baby! ahah

I think that it is necessary to maka a remark here

manufactures of these cars don't care about these cars, but if they want to join the FIA GT-series the model they used needed to be based on a streetversion of a car...

they also neede to produce at least 25 of these cars, with a maximum price of 1 million US dollars..

and since developing a car costs ALOT of money, especially a car you (manufacturer) don't want to produce..
YOU BUILT 25 FOR THE PRICE OF 1 MILLION DOLLARS

they are sure they are going to sell them to the 25 richest peeps in the world, so losing them is not the problem..
this way, the losses per car stay as low as possible.

the reason you never here again from these cars is that they all are standing in private museums (waaaaayyy to expensive if you crash one of the cars) and nobody sees them again

oh yeah: abt: W12 your dreamcar?? good thing, but for me it still remains a volkswagen (builder of 20 million golfs and 20 million beetles..massproducts) or 'car for normal peeps' (no offense :P )

(btw, my own dreamcar is the koenisegg CC from sweden, posted a pic of this thingy in a thread a couple mounds ago, don't feel like doin that again, just for the record)

ACtually... The stats are a bit better than that!
0-62 in 4.6secs
0-124 in 13.7 secs
0-186 in 32.5secs
Top speed 202mph!
Official BHP = 469 @ 6100RPM
Torque = 516Lb ft at 2650 rpm
POwer to weight = 279 BHP per tonne

In a recent UK test, the Porsche GT2, Aston Martin VAnquish, Ferrari Maranello, SL55 AMG and Lambo Murcielago were pitted together in a speed test. The ferrari is the slowest! IT took 61.2secs to get to 182mph, while every other car took at least 10secs less than that. THE sl55 AMH was the result of the day as it trounced all the other cars.

H22a - is this the stock v6? im guessing so, since there arent any modifications...looks pretty nice, i think it would be better if the looks had an actual function tho - downforce above 180mph...alt thats not likely even with a souped up engine in this model...late/

You are right buddy...A VW is a VW through and through. Yes they are fun cars, but they have to rebrand that car in order for it to be taken seriously.

I am still a bit sore with VW since they keep building their cars more and more mainstream. The GTI as mentioned in another post is becoming more and more 'old man friendly' not what GTis have always stood for. And also, IMO they are becoming very very expensive given it is a 2 door Golf. Its an overweight hatchback...don't get me wrong I am liking the newer GTIs as a car...the price is extreme for what is being bought, I think. I as a consumer of a GTI would rather have VW cut the cost a bit and take out some of the BS options. Its 2 doors...I dont like power windows and door locks. Save that and give me a better designed exhaust system, a slightly more powerful rev happy engine, a more firm ride...something that will make me think I am driving a no-nonsense sporty car. My 2 cents.

BMW is hype. The M3 shown up top is grossly overpriced. Any one can buy a regular M3 bring it to a serious tuner and make it even faster and spend a third the price...IMO

The Benz posted above is a breath of fresh air to me since I really dislike Benzitos...I don't like the grilles, I don't go crazy for the overly round look and they just don't do it for me but the one posted here was damn nice. RS6 is KICK ASS...plain and simple Audis are my faves. S4 and TT especially! Notice my avatar...

of course there are 64 F1 road cars on the road, and more total f1s if you count all the race cars made. i totally get your idea tho...i knew thats how GT1 cars are sold, i was just saying that the F1 WAS 1mil when new, since there are less than 100 produced, if you buy one now you will prolly have to pay more...but of course McClaren will rebuild it to your specifications...hehe late/

I hate the TT, personally.

But yes, Audi does make hype cars...cept for the TT

biohazard: HIGH FIVE!!! I LVOE SKYLINES! i want one cept the cost+import+emission conversion costs around 80 grand in the US.. fuck.

BTW, the bimmer is awsome as well, but my lan evo has around 500HP!! yeah, so its on a video game, so what?
