Was just on my way home when I saw a Ferrari in my rear mirror. It looked so fuckin' huge in the mirror. I urgent myself to go aside and let him pass. Then a few 100mtrs further we had to stop for a red light. When the light turned green he touched the gaspedal and had some overdrive. It was awesome to see. But times like that I wished I had a supercar so I could compete with the Ferrari. A car that doesn't look like it's that fast but that would give the Ferrari a cold. :) Such a car like the [b]Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VIII MR FQ400[/b]. It's faster then a Ferrari or a Lambo. It's even faster then a Pagani Zonda or a Porsche Carrera GT. And you "only" pay ?47,000 ($85,000) for it.

0-60: 3.5Sec :shock: :twisted: :shock: Top Speed: 175Mph (280Kph) :shock: :twisted: :shock:

[quote]This is enough to propel the FQ400 from 0-60 mph in an incredible 3.5 seconds and on to a top speed in excess of 175 mph. It is a performance that even some of the world?s most exotic supercars struggle to match. The ?330,000 Porsche Carrera GT, for example, requires 3.9 seconds to sprint from 0-62 mph, while the ultra-exclusive Pagani Zonda needs 3.7 seconds. The BMW M3 ? hitherto the benchmark ?everyday supercar? ? takes 5.3 seconds to achieve the same feat.[/quote]

i would still pay the money for a marrenello, ford GT90, or an maclaren F1. they just look like works of art.

^^ True. But for 1/4 of that price you have a "family car" that goes quicker then those you mention. I'd prefer the Evo VIII MR FQ-400! :RockOn:

-Psynce-

We can't buy that variation in the states, besides, once you get to $85,000 whats another $20,000 for the Ferrari?

Personally, I'd just buy the Lancer in its American trim for $32,000 and spend another $10-15,000 on it. New Turbo, intercooler, all new exhaust and intake piping, all new fuel system, electronics to keep it under wraps, cams, valves, springs, the works. And I'd have spent maybe $45,000 and have more car then I could probably handle. :RockOn:

actually , you can own that version in the US, just buy it abroad and get a show permit for it. then change your plates. ^^

thats how we get slyvia variettas and true skylines over here.

You gotta be fast though... only 100 of these will be made.

-Psynce-

lol, i just took out a 850,000 mortgage. i aint buying shit.

yeah the Fq-400 is an amazing car but all the others u mentioned have alot more midrange torque and speed which would flatten the evo..

around the track the cars setup is perfect but on the road its very stiff.. The fq-400 really is a great advancement but its no zonda or ferrari..

Give me one of these.

CHEERS

^^ No man, seriously... they suck. A friend of mine had one of these 2 years back. It has only 231Bhp. I wasn't impressed by it, AT ALL! I have a normal Clio. 1400 16V with only 100Bhp. I never buy a Renault again. Worthless imo.

give me one of these and you can keep your foreign shite!

The new Z06 coming next year will have 500 bhp and blows away the Viper and most of the other cars on this thread. The numbers are supposed to be 0-60 in 3.4, which will edge out the FQ-400 as well. It also has one of the best power/weight ratio's in the world, only bested by the ferrari enzo and a couple others. Thanks to an all alluminum, and carbon composite body. But it will cost around $75,000-$85,000 as well. Still, I'd rather buy the 400 hp Z06 from last year for $50,000 if I had the money and wanted a 2 seater sports car.

BTW, sightless I'm curious on your house too man. Let us know, and how old are you? I just bought me a house too, $200,000 and I was lucky to get approved for that, I'm 24 years old BTW. First thing I did was get it appraised, came out as $226,000 and I just bought the damn thing. Also, since the next thing I did was finish the basement and add another bedroom, it should be worth close to $240, maybe $250,000 now.

and will still be driven by hillbillies and rednecks taking out a second mortgage on their mobile home and sacrificing their bastard children's college money. American cars suck so bad.

my top chioces:

MB E55AMG BMW M5 BMW M3 911 R6

^^ I'd choose the M3. M3 CSL :RockOn: The new 3 series will come out in March I heard. Hopefully the M3 will follow in 2006.

-Psynce-

Edit: And the R6. :P Faster accelaration then an R1.

The new M5 is a fucking machine!

Word on the street is an M6 is on the way.

I bet!

for the common man, BMW will be releasing the M2 late sprin in 2006. Starting at around $21,000 that is DEFO on my list of cars to buy.... right now, top of my list is the 2005 acura rl 3.5..... fucking MAD car

Psy i saw that episode of Top gear..i know it keeps up with the lambo but u can tell hes driving the tits off it..id like to see it against a enzo or zonda.. Im not saying its bad something isnt right about it though....400bhp out of a 2-liter is a tough thing to do with out letting up somewhere..

give me a radical SR4 baby, much fun u can have with your pants on.

No Mitsubishi will ever outrun a Lamborghini. Mitsubishis are not made for seriously fast people. They are made for the "fast and furious" people that think that their rice burners will eat up cars that were designed and made to go over 200MPH.

Besides that you will get a lot more tang with a real sportscar than a faux sportscar. Real sportscars only have two seats in them.

Re: Just got beaten by a Ferrari.

The car you should have been in when you were sat at them lights is the Ariel Atom 275 Supercharged. This is a road going car with awsome awsome power.

For ?35,000 you get 0-60 in 2 seconds. :shock: It`ll fuck all over any car thats been posted on here.

Re: Just got beaten by a Ferrari.

that car should be in the WTF thread..

Wow MJ, that's fuckin' fast! Can you imagine how your face would look like when you accelerate? LOL!

Funny you should say that becuase the fella driving it is called Jeremy Clarkson who did a test drive round the BBC Top Gear track.. You should have seen his face man..now hes an ugly chap at most times but even youd have turned him down if youd have seen him. Heres an article on the car note the one he`s describing is not the supercharged version.

seeing as i know nothing about cars really...

why is it that we cant have that particular car in the original post, is it just another stupid us law based on nothing, or is there real reason?
