Interesting car, but if you're talking yank muscle it has to be the Dodge Viper :D Way out of my budget though.

Im more or a Corvette fan, than a dodge.


But then if you have to factor in 70's Muscle era, then we are talking some gorgeous machinery that has never been replicated for pure beauty, they are still plenty quick too! :)

Recenlty they have been trying to replicate the old era cars, sometimes gonig well. Challenger and Camaro, and not so well, The charger looks like ass. Still quick though! :)

Challenger (Getting remade)
Charger (poor excuse for remake)
Camaro (Remade again)
Mustang
442
Trans Am
'Cuda


I would love one, the prices are getting sky high for some of these cars now. Especailly in the US, 'Cuda's sell for upwards of $100k regularly.

Tell that to the Z06 that laps tracks faster than the beloved porsche. :)

GT3RS 122.3
Zo6 1:22.4

However the normal Corvette is faster than standard GT3, DB9, EVO8 etc! :)

The people on here don't care what's faster round a track. Apparently that doesn't matter...!

Remember: The Porsche is better GOD DAMMMIT!!

ZO6 is VERY cool.

:) :)!!!

Apparenlty it handles nicer than the Supra, well thats what the Supra guys say, that goes for the older C5 and C5 Zo6, not the C6 (new one)

I thought the Supra handled quite well.

I cant comment, driven neither! :)

Maybe the thinking behind it all is, 'if it ain't broke, don't fix it'. After all it was fine in with a horse and cart circa 1870. :tongue:

That was to show how close it was to the GT3RS.



I agree it was not the best way to write it! :)

If you look, its beaten all the other 911's! :)
Even the baby Covette beat the GT3! :)

So much for "A Gt3 its the best ever" :) Or something to that affect!
