thats cool midget.

$850,000? alright.... the price didnt really mean anything, i was trying to say that only a few hundred have been made and the chances of actually getting one is still rare.

I hate rice rockets, becuase there looks are only what people care about on those. For $10,000, you could probably get a 500hp+, 10 second (1/4 mile) hotrod (used) and for $15,000 you could buy a gay looking rice rocket thats maybe 200 to 250hp and gets in the low 12's, because all the driver would buy is looks (bodykit, retarded exhaust, tiny tires, tiny spoiler, etc...). If you disagree, i dont care, cuase thats the truth.

and while im thinking of the mclaren, i read a thing on one, and there was a closed circuit time race thing (cars took turns getting times, think it was 1 mile). So the McLaren pulls up to the line, everyone is thinking "oooooooh" and "ahhhhhh" and "this should be good". After it finished it came in last place (like 126 seconds ot something like that), what i thought was funny was that a guy had a mini cooper there and got like 90 seconds (5th place) and the top car was a Porsche.

The new Dogde SRT-4 has a 1/4 mile time of about 14.2 not taht bad for stock Im not really into imports but if I could afford the insurance i would get a 92 Eagle Talon Turbo AWD (yes its a American company but the Talon, Eclipse, Laser are the same car ) they run stock in about 14s and you can push hp outta them easily OH WAIT I HAD A SIMILAR CAR BUT I CANT AFFORD THE INSURANCE I bought a 93 Eclipse turbo, but I cant afford the insurance so Im selling it. but heres pics anyway This first pic shows the car while its on jack stands because I had to replace the head (timing belt broke)

and heres a pic of what happens when a injector doesn't fire. The engine runs too lean on that cylinder and it burns a hole though the piston

My mom and dad drive a Nissan Altima, and my 20 yr old sister drives a Subaru Legacy....Maybe I could get the Nissan MAXIMA and get the paint job from the 2F2F Lancer done on it, with that hot spoiler.
