911 TT
new Mustang Cobra! LOL almost puts out more power at the wheels than the Z06 does at the crank.

As for the Cobra....I havent seen one run at the track, so its also mag racing. In that case, the Z06 still has the advantage. I read somewhere that they run high 12's. Also keep in mind the Z06 would also have the advantage on a road course.

sure the vette can turn.. yup.. wont give the mustang any credit there.
The dyno and the runs I keep hearing about put the new cobra in the low 12's. And with that new dyno posted, it'll probably be near high 11's 12.0 with some minor mods. Only thing the vette has on the cobra is turning... Not everyone races on road courses... (I would say most don't) The regular C5 is decent, ok seats, cheap cheezy interior. Then you hop on over to the Z06 which is cut down version of the C5 (for weight reasons) makes it even worse. With cheezy seats, less controls. Titanium exhaust though...
Simply put here, the vette isn't anywhere near being exotic. (nor is the mustang) Since his friends have nice cars...
Fords GT40 is gonna give the Z06 a spanking til it bleeds with a metal paddle. In more ways than one... Of course the new viper does too... viper will have a new bully on the block soon.

If you know someone who can run a 12.3 in a car thats heavier and has less HP. 12.0 shoud be obtainable yes/no? Especially with 4wd.
Z06
3118lbs
405hp
911TT
3197
415hp
Also, keep in mind the GT2 is not 4wd.
UPDATE: sorry Porsche 911TT is heavier
I pasted the GT2 weight originally,
And Umm....
I keep finding different weights for both the Z06 and the 911TT
LOL, i give up... does gravity keep changing for these people.. heh
however I did find some runs that show a 11.9 for the GT2 and a 12.2 for the regular 911TT. But who knows, I'll have to agree unless you see it. God only knows what these people are measuring with for either the 1/4mile or weight. heh

i think if i were you i would get the nsx. However, i would wait because the 03 nsx is going to be the first of the new generation nsx and it possibly might have v8 which will be insane. either way i think the nsx is the way to go.

Just test drive both 02 996 and 02 NSX today. NSX felt faster, but probably its because it sits much lower than 996. 996's braking is alittle better than NSX, more sensitive. The handling/cornering felt very similar, 996 probably alittle quicker by not much. Both price around $80k. Its a very hard decision. Help~

I decided to get 02 NSX blk/blk first and trade-in for 03 Porsche with X51 package (345HP) when it come out early next year. What do you guys think?
For such a top day trader, you really can't speak English very well. You are just a little kid who wants attention...
hahaha.. Did I hurt your feeling?
Then stop bring it back!!!
