Didn't a GTS back in '98 hit 172.XX in the standing mile? And the SLR hit 175? What could the SRT coupe do?

Like the looks or not (i like the front and dont like the back), how would you like to be in your new 997TT, GT, Viper or C6Z06 and have that ugly ass end SLR walk past you and keep going? I would be hating life.

their test was done kind of weird with a roll on speed then run for a distance of about a mile. either way, they ran them all the same way.

For that much money I'd buy the FGT, a comp coupe, a Z06, and a Gallardo, build a new garage to house them and have money left to put a kid through college.

I like the SLR, it's just $200M too much.

Just wait a year. Prices on them are going to drop faster than Snomann's stock picks.

I couldn't afford one anyhow, but it makes me feel a little better to say that car looks like a fat, ugly pig.
