    I was once "in love" with a guy who drove a - Red Ford Gran Torino- that car was awesome -
    ( and so was he ) :D

    Men and there sports cars - I remember - showing up with a bunch of friends at the Metro Park - just about every Saturday during the summer months and the guys would would wax their cars and us girl would just sun bathe ....

    Plenty of beer and whiskey went around too - we were careful not to get caught by the park ranger... ;)

    baddest car on the planet. 1000+ hp and 280+ mph, as delivered.
    no one here could drive that car @ 280mph. no one here could drive that car without going to that car company's driving academy. am i correct or being silly? when folks bought shelby cobras back in the 60's they had to attend driving courses.

    i've been down the highway in junk ass muscle cars (or bikes) well over 120mph. that was pretty fast enough and scary when it wasn't me driving (or if i was :mrgreen: ) or when i ate the floor due to fear for my life. 280pmh in a tight car is ridiculous. when are people going to start dying in this thing?

    wow... wait.
    i remember going to watch friends ride this motorcycle. dumb shits. if i remember the speedometer read 180mph. i remember they took turns on this bike. they were screamin' well at around that 180mph mark.
    add another 100mph onto that... you're out of your mind.... that has to be flight. fuck off.

    We really need a bigger one, but the MDX is too expensive. And the RDX is more than adequate for now. And it is a pleasure to drive, with just enough luxury to feel like its a fancy car. If that makes any sense.

    And if you do consider the RDX, they have this red burgundy color that no one is buying. You can negotiate a good deal on that color-they cant give them away. Of course, my wife refused to take one in that color which we could have got for about $3k under invoice price. :x ;)

    i challenge you to drive that car at the car's full potential without you being buried afterwards.

    probably impossible for most people to start that car let alone operate it correctly.

    i guess while i was out everyone turned into richard petty or michael knight or somebody like capt. kirk or E.T.

    most people can't handle a suped up 4 cyclinder mass produced in japan or peru
    ever drove a jet to the grocery store as sideways as can be on dry clouds? ... no me either.I SAID NO ME EITHER

    You need a special key to even get it into top speed mode, and even by then you need a ridiculous amount of road to get it anywhere near that speed. Oh and if anyone here doesnt watch Top Gear, fucking do it. Its so good that you dont even have to like cars and youll still fall in love with the show.
