Especially around here. The 700hp or so I’m putting down is more than enough, and it’s scary as is. I really feel like I have the best street setup possible (FWIW). Agreed on being unnecessary, but no reason to rip it apart as the stock engine with cams is stout enough to make 1000HP, esp for a car that’s not ran at the track on full kill. ---

Agreed, need to build her past 850wheel though. All I need is to change to a 71mm, throw some injectors/AEM in there. This year I just plan on getting used to and driving the car gremlin free.

Ford GT price is production numbers for sure, as the engine/chassis is not any more impressive than a ZO6, and behind a ZR1. ---

yeah i agree with you guys on that a 2011 GT with a hairdrier would be SICK. But the GT actually is a bit behind the zr1 when it comes to drivetrain parts, arguably the motor as well. ---

I am an all american kind of guy. Imo the ford gt is the top of the top cars and its american. Granted europe has made so many awesome supercars but they just arent for me. That car screams awesome, highend but not like a gallardo or anything else. This is something you can get your hands dirty with. It is by far my favorite supercar. ---

One car to 10 people will mean 10 different things to those people. Why? Because EVERYTHING about a car is subjective and subject to personal opinion. To me, I could give a fuck how many C6Z’s were made vs Turbo Supras. I really don’t care. I would still take a C6Z any day of the week over a Supra/GT500 even a Ford GT w/ cash on the side. But that is just me. Some people think production numbers are important and that’s fine. But it dosen’t mean shit. Straight line performance is a fraction of what makes a car a car. What am I going to do with 2000HP? Seriously. Nothing but have issues. And please don’t get started on how an interior makes a car better than another. Again, a completely subjective opinion. I think that is the dumbest thing I have ever heard. " Bro his car is so much faster in all aspects than yours. That’s ok, his interior sucks." It sounds RETARDED. ---

Lets make a few assumptions. 1. The car’s aero is the same, and its the same type of car 2. The top speed was LIMITED by the drag and not the distance. (probably not true) Since the required power is proportional the the cube of the velocity, to go from 230 to 266.9 mph would require 56.2% more power. ---

Interior does not make a car “better” but it would sway someone to buy it. Not really sure why the tone of your post is so offensive either. I was judging the production number argument on resale value.
