Re: 2006 SLR mclaren
skylines are way overrated. im tryin to find a day to take pics of my buddies new lauren. yeah, it looks like a ------- taxi on 17's, then you look and see those 17's are GTR wheels, GTR brakes, then he pops the hood to see a huge *** turbo, you spot the front mount, he revs it up, and it chatters harder than a eskimo, and you look down and you have a ------- hard on. i would rather have that then a ------- skyline. a lauren with GTR parts is a little more sexier. thats my $.02
off subject but still in the subject of "super cars"
kinda funny you brought this up though. a friend and I were in a heated discussion with a guy about how much of a waste of money the ferrari enzo (after he said it was the greatest thing ferrari produced) was. then we looked on motor trend and noticed this:
take a test of a Ferrari Enzo, the Porsche Carrera GT, and the Ford GT (all lemans cars, but in factory form)
what do you think the outcome is. granted the prices were between $150g's and $650g's, the ford being the cheapest. ferrari being the $650g car.
long story short, the ford kicked some ***.

sorta interesting. im not really a ford guy, more of a GM guy, but I kinda thought this was a slap in the face to ferrari and porsche. johnny, you might like this.

Re: 2006 SLR mclaren
Why would u guys compare a Z06 to a MB top model 
Z06 is meant to be a sport car that everyone can afford. does it has ALL the function over the benz? NO
not everyone likes the idea of a "fix up" car when they have 908234509389 dollars in their account. most of the production car is not designed to be driven AND corners at 200mph, you can mod a Z06 or skyline all you want, but it would never touch the refinment of a factory designed unit.
some of you will be like, Who would want AC and all those bull ---- function in a super car. Well that is the market there for RICH people, it`s all good if you can afford one. If not then look for a lower class sport car like the Z06
FYI i heard that it cost a grand just to change new plugs on these SLRs because the engine needs to be LIFTED inorder to change them.
