It's all in the gearing. I bet your car cant go 200+ ;)
But IMO the Ford GT. 0-170MPH in 21 seconds. stunningly fast.
The driving pics are sexy. |
Correct (both max speed and about the gearing)... only 189. ;) |

How anyone could think this is rice is beyond my imagination..
This is definitely one of the most sexy cars I have seen this year.. I love British design work.. Too bad of the sloppy gearing engineering though..
But hey, you can't see that on a picture, and that's as close as I'll get to one of these babies for a looong while I guess. |

Uh no dude, you mis-read my post... My point was that I'm surprised that for such a large engine, they didn't gear it to get faster acceleration.... That 0-60 is not at all impressive for a car of that "magnitude"....So don't get all cocky with me.

It's not made to outrace you, its made to outpimp you -- it definitely does that. 0-60? Try any girl you want. I will take the girl home while you are getting a speeding ticket. |

I have never understood the fascination of some people for 'upgrading' their (below) average Nissan or whatever generic Jap car for god knows how many dollars when they could invest that extra money in a decent set of wheels.
It's not that those upgrades are of any use in normal traffic, and besides that, those oversized spoilers really don't make your car any prettier.
But well, as said above, get your speeding tickets while I'll invest in a decent car (not that I can afford one at the moment, but I don't really need one either). |
