This should cut down that commute time Mike!

the gas might be a little higher though

Mike, I think you should get one and then we can follow each other up.

I could go for that. Don't think it would make the trip during some of those snow storms though.

600 plus horse power is crazy...

They didn't even give a hint on top speed or 0-100
or anything like that.

My friends Dad had a 911 turbo. I drove at around 120
and it was smooth as butter at that speed. I am guessing
that car would be smooth at 140 if it was geared right.

how many hours of overtime would that be Mike

More than my body would be able to stand.

Who needs a functioning body when you have one of those?

With my 60 hour weeks this month, I may be able to get one!!

I've always loved the look of the Corvette. But it would seem a shame to drive that car in any state with a speed limit.

This summer I was driving on I-94 where the Speed Limit is 70, and this guy was driving a brand new Mustang GT 55 mph in the center lane. It was so hard not to beat him senseless. Why would you buy a fast car like that and then voluntarily go that slow on a freeway???

to piss off other drivers or to draw attention to yourself

It must be the atention thing. As is a bright yellow Mustang GT doesn't draw attention enough.

I read on another website top speed in excess of 200mph. A normal new vette will do 186, so with 200 extra hp, I wouldn't say that's far off. And this new one will probably be smooth to 180+. The ride select system on these cars, along with downforce from high speed, will make it smooth. Sweet car.

I can't even imagine that speed to be honest
at a hundred plus as far out as you can see you are
in a blink of eye basically. 200 forget it you wouldn't even be
able to see something until its too late.

I had on old couple that I did work for in my early 20's
try and give me a late 60's Jag XKE. I believe it was
a 12 and have no idea of horse power. It needed a lot of work
but I couldn't accept that from them. I know one their kids
would want it.

Yeah, taking an XKE off someones hands could cause bad feelings in the family. I think that is still one of the most desirable cars in the world. Beautiful cars, but I would think that fixing one up could cost a fortune.

Can you imagine blowing people away passing them
without even touching your engines power
