What is your favorite american supercar. Cars that were spectacular for their time.

I like the 2000 Cobra R.

Cars like:

91-92 Firehawk  
Ford GT  
Saleen S7  
ZL1 Camaro  
ZR-1 Corvette  
Z06’s

How about the [Vector W8](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vector_W8)? I remember reading about it when it came out.

Or maybe the DeLorean.

it should beable to do alot better than that. its abit heavier the the C6 Z06 by about 400lbs, but it has 375 more hp. C6 has done 127 stock. the callaway should be well into the 130’s. power to weight is just sick on the sledge
