Well the comment about the car being "slow" was directed towards hendrick edition. I doubt any car that is categorized with the supra tt, corvette, and a vr4 3000gt as slow, and when it's built up properly it's a land rocket. However, it all depends on what you're use to, I considered my co-worker's ZO6 slow because I was expecting it to best a built H22 powered CRX a friend of mine owned, I mean it's a ZO6! But think about it, how can you call a ZO6 vette slow? Same thing goes for that 300zx maybe that driver couldn't drive or something was wrong with the car, or maybe your car is just that fast, which I'm pretty sure it's no snail. You just can't really base your opions about a car on one experience.

I shouldn't have gone off about the style of the car, it is dated, and plus to each their own!

Lates.

ah damn it i cant believe i overlooked that lotus elise option, good call vmspionage. That car will destroy any of the cars in that poll potential-wise. With only 195hp (b18c5) those things can spank SVT cobras in 0-60 and 1/4 time, not to mention mid-engine rwd and a ~1700lb curb weight will own ANY production car in the handling dept stock for stock. I remember reading a motor trend article online where they pitted it against the likes of a Z06, 360modena, viper etc etc, it owned all of them in the handling section of the test
