650 hp for 2008 vette

[the727kid 10+ year member]

I wasn't bashing your grammar, I honestly could not understand what you were saying.
The Veyron is the world's most powerful manufactured car. The guy with 2200 hp in England is a one of a kind that even with 2220 hp, a Veyron would smoke its *** on a track.

Really on the track, wat is its 1/4 mile time? I hope under pretty **** low because I have seen street legal cars get some pretty nasty times.

Anyways...I bet up this Viper would own the Veyron....mmmmm American HP:naughty:

Did you ever say you've driven a vette before or not?

Look, I understand that vettes are nice for the price you pay for them, I'm not dissing that at all. I am saying to compare a Vette to a Ferrari is sin. Sure the vette has a big engine and can go fast, but does it even BEGIN to compare to the quality in a Ferrari or a Veyron? No, not by a long shot.

in terms of fit and finish and exclusivity, then yes, by virtue of their higher prices ferraris, lambos and bugattis will be better than a vette.

In terms of performance (which is basically everything excluding fit and finish) they're now in the same ballpark.

in terms of bang for the buck, the vette is the clear cut winner.

You didn't even TRY to read what I said. I said NOTHING about performance. A big engine, a quality machine does NOT make.

So you are saying overall build quality correct?

Then why do all these stats keep popping up along with your VERY FIRST POST where you mentioned it would handle like a mack truck? It's OBVIOUSLY not completely based on looks/build quality.

Ok please remove yourself from this conversation. When I said track, I did NOT mean a straight track. Ffs going fast in a straight line doesn't make a car nice. I bet you like Nascar don't you?

Yup I like Nascar, but hey I'm AMERICAN. I bet your some Europen dude still clinging to Germanies nuts, you like IRL and hate Nascar. And when you say take it to the TRACK in AMERICA....that means the dragstrip buddy.

But make your mind, you talk about speed and then I call it out and you talk about handling. Which one?

ok to faktor, what is the nicest car you've actually driven? my comparison of the c6 z06 to say a 360 or F40 is b/c i've driven all 3 and can say the c6 is between the 360 and F40 ferrari. closer to the 360 but still between em'.

Sigh, read the post where I said it would handle like a mack truck again. Notice that particular smiley at the end? Some people are too worried about shit to see humor in ANYTHING.

Doesn't look like a very sarcastic post to me.

Then shit just snowballed from there.

If you wanted it to be sarcastic, you should've used this smilie, //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/tongue.gif.6130eb82179565f6db8d26d6001dcd24.gif , meaning that you were joking

K Faktor , since your godly assumption is i known nothing about cars or racing, Ill just put up this link, i m sure youve heard of archer racing, and if you havent then you dont know jack sh!T... Archer Racing is here in my town , its a pretty big building with new vipers going in and out daily, and i guarantee you give these " world champions " a vette or a viper and 50-100k it will walk on that overpriced paperweight youve been jerking over

Wait they lose 8.8 million on each car??

I think he throughly just convinced me he is 120% retarded.

Veyrons are faster and handle better than any Vette EVER will be able to. The Veyron was designed for one thing only and that is to be the most powerful (in all aspects) production car ever made. VW spends 10 million dollars making EACH Veyron but they only sell for 1.2 million. There will only be 50 Veyrons made EVER.

OMG I hate idiots. Im going to sleep but I dont see how faktor can post on car websites and not die. Probably has a complete dual setup in his car and feels awesome.

I would hope the veyron would outperform a vette seeing as its 10x the d*mn price.

faktor answer my question, or do you avoid questions you cant lie your way through?

 

[StealthKill 10+ year member]

VW did it as a test just to see if it was possible. You might want to do some research before acting like a retard.

Coming from the guy who says vettes handle like shit.

You better do some research before you throw your useless 2 cents in about what vettes are compared to

Exotics Beware

These numbers certainly put the 2006 Corvette Z06 in company with some of the fastest cars ever produced. Only the Enzo Ferrari, McLaren F1, Saleen S7 and Porsche Carrera GT are clearly quicker than this Chevrolet, and each of those cars is made in very limited numbers while costing between $400,000 and $1,000,000. Other contenders, like the Ferrari F430, Ford GT and Lamborghini Gallardo, offer about equal straight-line performance — but at two-to-three times the Z06's cost of entry.

 

Of course Dodge's Viper is in the Z06's same neighborhood, both in terms of price, performance and interior materials quality, but the Corvette offers such amenities as standard stability control, as well as optional DVD navigation and a standard head-up display. It's also far easier to get into and out of, and much more pleasant to drive on a regular basis. To say the $66,000 Z06 is a performance bargain is like saying our dependence on foreign oil is sort of inconvenient. Speaking of which, this supercar avoids the gas-guzzler tax by averaging over 20 mpg in EPA testing (16 city/26 highway).
