Think about it this way: How many cars are in Canada? How many of them are pushing 700hp? Therefore, theoretically, his claims that his car is one of the fastest in Canada isn't really that farfetched. Especially for a street legal, stock-looking car.

He states that it is "one of the fastest cars in Canada", not THE fastest. Where does he say that it is the fastest? I personally have no problem believing that it is faster then 99.5% of street legal cars in Canada (Seeing that stock Z06s with drag radials run low 11s to even high 10s in the 1/4 mile), making it one of the fastest cars in Canada! Why is this so hard to believe? :badpokerface:

Name calling is unnecessary too! Why are you so mad at him (to the extent that he is making you lose hope in humanity)?

it probably is ONE of the fastest cars in Canada.

Z06's were already super quick cars, and then you factor in a supercharger pushing it to 700whp.

700hp vette? those things weigh nothing, and he has added 2-300 hp... this thing would fly, my buddy has a 800hp shortbox single cab silverado that thing hauled ass on 650hp and its a truck... its not hard to believe a corvette with this much power would be one of the fastest street legal daily cars around

Do you even recognize how fucking stupid you're being?


Also, have you been living under a rock? Dyno sheet, seriously? It's rediculously easy to get that much power out of those engines.

i know you can but just bolting on a supercharger to an ls7 doesnt give you 700WHP! :badpokerface:

He had a shit of work done OP, Z06 dyno anywhere between 420 to 450 stock. You are right, its impossible to get 250 rwhp out of a supercharger alone, but I did see a bolt-on only Z06 (Headers, full exhaust, ram air intake, and a dyno tune) put down 530 rwhp in front of my eyes... A Vortech Supercharger kit is capable of adding anywhere between 100 rwhp to 120 rwhp. You do the math!

Here is a MT article for on a supercharged LS7:
2007 Vortech Corvette Z06 - Tuners - Motor Trend (http://www.motortrend.com/roadtests/tuners/112_0706_2007_vortech_corvette_z06/)

Consider the above 630 hp and add the other mods that he had listed (headers, exhaust and a custom dyno tune are the ones I remember). So the the 700 hp is very feasible.

PS: I would consider any street legal car than can run low 11s and trap over 130 mph as ONE of the fastest cars, where ever it is...

fair enough. what you consider to fall into the fastest cars in canada and what i do are differant. i certainly dont think low 11s would cut it for me as ive seen civics and other cars drive to mission and run 10s. not taking away from that car because its a nice car! but low 11s one of the fastest cars in canada.... come on

Thats a different story. I do not think a 10 second civic would be capable of day to day driving (to the same extent as this Vette is capable of). Correct me if I'm wrong, but if we are talking about a 10 second civic, we are talking either an engine swap or a MASSIVE turbo which probably only runs on race gas... Mind you I don't think that a 700 hp Z06 is a capable every day car either.

I guess what I'm trying to say is that that Z06 is in my opinion fully capable of being ONE of the fastest cars that were NOT build solely to run a 1/4 mile... In its own category, you would be hard pressed to find a quicker car (once again, my opinion).

Also, I'm not saying that his statement is not an over-exaggeration. I mean, I personally know of one car that will probably out run him (my friend's Switzer P800 R35 GTR). At the end of the day even that GTR is only ONE of the fastest cars as well.

Whatever you drive, there will always be someone out there who is faster.

ya thats well put. i owned a civic that was more than capable of 10s(fully built k20 and a gt40 :) ) and some people speculated lower but no dought a v8 handles that kinda power easier. that is true there is always someone faster. but for me a 700hp vette is nothing special considering how many there are with that and much more power around. but its nice to talk to someone that knows what there talking about instead of alot of the other people that replied saying i cant afford it and all this other shit lol

It looks like the whole problem here is a discrepancy between what you define as "one of the fastest" and what others and the Corvette owner defines as "one of the fastest".

What is your personal definition?

Mine would be if his car was in the top 100 fastest cars in Canada.

Do I think it is? Probably not.

I would guess that his personal definition is that he is faster than 99.99% of the cars in Canada, and he could be right.

But there are almost 20M cars in Canada, so even if there is 0.01% of cars faster than his, that's still 2000 cars.

Bottom line is, there is no absolute definition of "one of the fastest".

No need to get your jimmies rustled over it.

Statistically, he does have one of the fastest cars in Canada. This car would place in the top fraction of 1% of vehicles, even if there are others that are much quicker.

My written language skills were literally better than the op's when I was in elementary school. It's ironic that he's "calling out" someone else using the language skills of a failing fifth-grader.

The CL posting might be a little misleading but maybe the owner is using a sales man strategy.
when you get some one with a little more.money then a average joe with a lowet IQ and is looking for a car,that headlime will catch his attention,.
When it come to the actual car it is quite fast if the title is true,there is more powerfull cars out there and always be so there is no point of having a discussion of failing the op for 4 pages.
You get the point.
