Re: ULTIMATE SUPERCAR - anyone care to disagree? any one checked out the SVS viper lately. SVS is going to make the fastest street legal production car in the world. ive heard some where around 1200hp and top speed of over 250mph!
Re: ULTIMATE SUPERCAR - anyone care to disagree? More than the ultimate supercar!!! 1001 horses!!!! man this car is cool!!!
Re: ULTIMATE SUPERCAR - anyone care to disagree? thank you placid that was perfectly put except the NA W18 engine has 555hp and 479.4 ft pnds of torque so the turbos do. but i would like to see mclaren fans try to slap a turbo or two on the mclaren LM haha sorry guys but that would not work. HAIL TO THE NEW KING------->THE VEYRON!!!
Re: ULTIMATE SUPERCAR - anyone care to disagree? Ummm i think this isn't quite like the Mclaren. The Mclaren is pure light-weight sports car with a non-aspirated engine. This is a heavy big car and it has 4 turbos and a W-16. I mean if Mclaren wanted too they could also slap on turbos and make it insanely fast. But as a true sports car company they wanted to make the Mclaren without the aid of turbos. Sure you could slap on turbos but that would just defeat the purpose. And anyways imagine IF this thing came to production, it would turbo lag like nobodys business. HULLO!! with one turbo you get lag- but with four. Even if their timed so they go of sequentially. And the Mclaren would murder it in the corners anyways. P.S. Sit Down.
Re: ULTIMATE SUPERCAR - anyone care to disagree? more turbos = less turbo lag, not more. With 4 running sequentially, they can simply have each running at lower psi instead of only one or two turbos running huge psi (like the Dauer 962 or most Porsche race cars)
Re: ULTIMATE SUPERCAR - anyone care to disagree? For all the people who say the Mclaren looks better, or the Corvette or Bugatti looks better, shut up. Why? Because unlike performance statistics, looks are subjective. Some people are going to like the looks of one car better, some another. I think the Mclaren looks like cruddy wadded up aluminum foil, but other people think it looks great. Fine. My opinion is valid, and so is theirs. There is no right or wrong. Who cares how you like the styling? Talk about what REALLY MATTERS, the performance of the car, and stop wasting bandwith with babblings about how pretty you think the car is. Sheesh.
Re: ULTIMATE SUPERCAR - anyone care to disagree? Please explain to me why you could not turbo the Mclaren F1 LM. Of course there's more to it than just "slapping them on" but it certainly is feasible.
Re: ULTIMATE SUPERCAR - anyone care to disagree? The McLaren is much better... This car looks like sh*t! The f1 looks a lot better.. A TURBO motor for this car! that s*cks.. Like a NA engine because of it's fast and nice acceleration.. A turbo has a slow and boosted acceleration... So the McLaren won't be beaten by this car. Foemie
Re: ULTIMATE SUPERCAR - anyone care to disagree? I think you're living in the 80s. Turbo lag on this car would be very minimal, and it'll depend on the weight as to whether it'll be beaten by the Mclaren (on the track of course, this will take top speed easy).
Re: ULTIMATE SUPERCAR - anyone care to disagree? I agree! This is the ultimate Supercar, thas why its an ultracar
Re: I have to disagree,while this(Veyron) is a very fast(250mph) and powerful car,I would still have to give the(Ultimate supercar)title to the Dauer 962LM,street version.
Re: ULTIMATE SUPERCAR - anyone care to disagree? So the Bugatti Veyron 16/4 can go 400 kilometers per hour an hour?
Re: ULTIMATE SUPERCAR - anyone care to disagree? it depends on how you look at it. if we are talkning about trakc performance than this cars 4000lbs arent as good as they might seem, and with awd it should go 0-60 great but it would probably lose on te tope end because with the awd having higher drivetrain losses, it probably has somewhere around 600hp at the wheels, where it would have about 850 if it were just rwd. also it is heavy, i heard around 4000lbs, which isnt a good track car, and i bet it cant handle track abuse very well. now if were are talking about street cred then this is on top. the awd inspires confidence, and makes it easier to drive, and better for stoplights. as far as ultimate street cars i dont think it is that good, it seems to me this car takes the mercedes benz approach of offering a very nice and luxurious and calssy car that just happens to haul ass. they jsut did it better and faster. for it to be the ultimate superar, it would have to be as outrageous in looks and aerodynamis as the ferrari enzo, have teh engine it currently has and have rwd only. then it would be teh ultimate street car because it would be better than everything, right now id bet there are at least 10 cars that beat it on the track , and arent that far behind in the other categories. this is definately up there with the best, but the ultimate supercar car is still up for debate. what about the daurer, enzo, edonis.
Re: ULTIMATE SUPERCAR - anyone care to disagree? Not in all areas, i like da styling of the McLaren better, and u can seat 3 ppl in da front
Re: ULTIMATE SUPERCAR - anyone care to disagree? I disagree very much, this car would probably weight over 1800kg while for example the Mac F1 LM tips the scale at only 1100kg, same as the Dauer 962, and the Koenigsegg CC8S only weight about 1200kg. The ultimate supercar must be good on track, which this probably isn't, and not only in terms of topspeed. I'm not saying that this is a bad car but its not the ultimate supercar, dont know if that car exist. And both F1 and CC8S and sure an Enzo, not forgetting the Dauer Porsche 962, would destroy this car round a track AND come close in the topspeed.
Re: ULTIMATE SUPERCAR - anyone care to disagree? this makes you the dessicion easier... the first exclusive video (preview video, there other videos come out on 05/15/03, 05/19/03, 05/??/03 http://www.supercars.de/?show=aktuelles_item&n_id=643 the other there videos will have a different news id, so in this case check the main site http://www.supercars.de all the videos will presented there by the time, so you won`t miss one ;-) it`s in german, but who cares... ;-) just watch the car!
Re: ULTIMATE SUPERCAR - anyone care to disagree? about time for the mclaren to hand its crown to another car. aanother world record for bugatti ( the other is the largest car). It used to have the record for the most powerful car (eb110 found in the guinness book of world records 1994). bye mclaren, hello bugatti.
Re: ULTIMATE SUPERCAR - anyone care to disagree? yin my mind a supercar is a car that u can do ne thing 2 like the rx7 or viper or sumtin but that is just my opinion i think that this car kicks ass and even though u can't do ne thing 2 it it is still a supercar in my book
