If the shop puts on cheap kits/parts then it's still their fault. I've refused to work on numerous cars because the parts were inferior. If you can't look at a component and determine if it's made properly then you have no business installing it.

Have you looked at a new BMW (or other high-end car) and seen the "quality" engineering that goes into them? Doesn't matter how good the engineer is if he's taking his orders from an accountant that gives him a strict budget and timeline to develop a component.

Even your grandma's camry V6 can do that...

^ The guy had 245/45-R18 Yoko Advan S4's.

I had a '07 Camry V6 as well, but the best I could manage 0-100 was about 6.4

Noted. We'll use the C/D spec since the Euro spec GT3 may be different from U.S. spec.

Nice list for the modified category. I guess it's now time to rank who has the fastest OEM cars on RS.

Agreed. There's also speedo error to account for when you change your tires/wheels to a different diameter.

Yeah but accord V6 + altima V6 can do just as good if not better from factory. Point is standard everyday FWD cars are still pretty fast 0-60

I know exactly what it meant. Except when people say 99%, the assumption that goes along with it is that essentially everything in said category save a few examples. I was simply stating that you were completely false, and still are.

Nah, not really cuz I drive slow and don't have to worry about it. I didn't buy it for cornering, I bought it for reliability and for going to cool places that you can't go in your slow car.

Link me, cuz honestly it just sounds like a scam so people like you can refer to it and make it seem more legitimate.

MS3, 08/09 Cobalt SS, Caliber SRT-4...

All cars around the 30K mark to boot.

Haters :troll:

This thread has potential to be FC material. :fullofwin:

Do you really think more than 1% of the cars on the road in BC accelerate quicker than an M6 or C4S? Cars that are quicker are few and far between.

HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA HHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAAHHAHAHAHAAHAHHAHAH AHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH AHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAAHHAHAHAHAAHAH HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAAHHAHAHAH AAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAH AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAAHHA HAHAHAAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAH AAHHAHAHAHAAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAH AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAH AHHAHAAHHAHAHAHAAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAH AHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHHAHAAHHAHAHAHAAHAHHAHAHAHAHA

Chevy Trailblazer SS
"Heinricy tested a two-wheel-drive version that achieved 60 mph in 5.4 seconds, the quarter-mile in 13.9 seconds, and 0.80 g on the skidpad"
From C/D

2003-2004 Cobra
"Cobra from 0-60 mph in 4.5 seconds and the quarter mile in the high 12's at over 110 mph"
From Wikipedia

2000 Cobra R (Ok, this ones rare i'll give you that)
"This limited-edition, 385-horse pony runs 12s and pulls 1.01g!... Our acceleration tests revealed steam catapult-like launches with 60 mph arriving in just 4.4 seconds... That compares favorably with the Corvette's 4.8-second run to 60 and 13.3 at 108.6 through the quarter mile." -Motor Trend April, 2000 Issue.

Corvette (C6)
0-60 in 4.6
Didn't feel like finding the 1/4

Corvette (Z06)
"Car and Driver recorded a 0-60 mph time of 3.6 seconds and 1/4 mile in 11.8 seconds at 122 mph in a March 2007."

2008 C63 AMG
"An aggressive right foot generates can't-help-smiling burnouts, while a more restrained squeeze yields a fuss-free launch, followed by a hair-raising 3.9-second explosion to 60 mph, easily outrunning the other two. Upshifts happen quickly, leaving just the smallest interruption in the surge of power on the way to a blazing 12.3-second quarter-mile at 116 mph" - Car and Driver

<snipped retard laughter>

How is that faster than a C4S which C/D clocked at 4.5s to 60 and 13.1s in the 1/4 mi. Are you going to say you rounded-up again?

No, I'm going to say it's a fucking SUV.

<Yawn> That's a stretch to find one on the road. While it may be faster than my C4S, it's still not faster than my 996 Turbo at 4.0s to 60 and 12 second 1/4 mi.

Yeah a 2WD SUV? That makes as much sense as Ronald McDonald in a Tuxedo.

I never ever see C63's or Z06's on the road though bro... So I guess you're right.

I think you should stop weaseling by admitting that the times you quoted for the Cobra are for the SVT, which is super rare.

As far as C63s and Z06, you might see 1 for every couple of hundred cars. So yes, I am right.

Here's a good rule of thumb: If we disagree, I am right and you are wrong.

The real question is,do you have the skill to be able to drive a 996 turbo to accomplish those speeds.

Or do you just bench race,due to the lack of driver skill?

Oh really? Well I have a big e-peen too buddy old boy. And for one, you still haven't linked me to anything about this "correction for atmospheric condition" thing that C/D does.

And my apologies, I was scanning and there are indeed different models of the Cobra.

He's scared of sliding out of a corner back end first and bursting into flames.

um......cx9......
hp:....idk...250 ish...?
weight:....2 tons?
0-60: never tested.
0-100: takes forever.

but i got 7 seats tho. i think i have the slowest car~
haha

So rather than accepting a good old fashioned defeat and saying I was right all along, this is the best you can come up with?

Pick up any of their magazines...it's in the fine print.

PSM is my friend.

Nothing wrong with bench racing on a forum, now is there?

I really havent been paying 100% attention to marco911 but what car does he own again?
definately beats my POS but I am just curious.
Ps, today on the way to the gym and to the gas station I saw two different z06 black and red. no pics cause i dont keep my camera at bay to take pictures of cars.
