The nicest has to be the 2002 ML 55 AMG my mom has.

The fastest has to be my cousin's 97 Supra TT anniversary.

One of the guys that works for me has a badass STI. Computer tuned by Cobb tuning. Built bottom end, cuz STI's have weak blocks. and he runs 20-24 psi!!!!!!!!! all day long. We recently put the Tien SS coilovers on it. The thing is a friggin monster, I have never driven a car that pulls harder----vette's, 5.0's, or any other rediculously over rated, worst power to weight ratio vehicle sold today or yesterday. Definately the fastest car I ever drove. Nicest car is my bosses ferrari 355 spyder '97. Hot as hell drops panties for you.

I am tied up between my dad's Z3, and my brother's IS300 and his WRX. I'd have to say that the IS300 has the best overall package of performance, style, and comfort.

I used to Vallet in Houston, TX until I went on active duty...So I guess I gotta kiss ***, but anyway...I would not say nicest, but my favorite to drive was a 96 Supra twin..that thing had *****! I also broke all 4 tires loose on a Carrera 4 RS.(doing a donut).That was a nice car...also parked a 92 NSX ooooohh ahh...All the Benz AMG's were nice. Vette ZR1...This was all back in 1996...Recently drove 06 Benz C or E350 conv. I get the letters all confused..My Mother in-law's "fun" car. New RX8...quick, but not fast. Drove a NASCAR @ 119mph at Buck Baker Racing School...on and on and on

As much fun as it is to drive these cars, I would rather own 1 nice ferrari and not experience many other cars than get to drive a ton of nice cars only once.

Turbo Si...ick, was it a Ep3? hope not. Ive rode in full size ford, not a lightning, but like a F250 or whatever the HUGE fords are, with (dynoed at the wheels) 750+Hp and over 900lb-ft of torque. Probably the most torque ive ever felt and will ever feel. Pins you back like no other

What you must be talking about is "simply" a Cobra GT350, not an "Eleanor". Eleanor is a nickname now given to GT500s thanks to both Gone in Sixty Seconds movies: 1st movie had a 1973 Mach 1, second one had a 1967 GT500 imitation built by Shelby, the GT500E (E for Eleanor). They did launch production of the GT500E (alongside the GT350), if you want to buy one.

The paint job on it cost him $25,000. And just for kicks, he painted it Ferrari Red, Ferrari White, and Ferrari Black.

^^ if you know the history of the car, you will laugh at the colors he picked.

Finally! You are one of the first people to get how ironic it is that he painted it those colors.

+rep for you!
Wow. An MKI. I thought there were none left in the globe. (Can I ask you for more pictures?).

This car lost it's first race, the Mille Miglia at Nürburgring in 1964. Two years later, they were beating out the Ferraris! It's impressive how an American company that had never participated in these events can come in with a new car that can beat the company that has won most of the races in the past. Meh, although that didn't last long. Ford won the races from 1966 through 1969, only four years... but it was those years that made the GT40 such a big icon.

Hey, you're should +rep me. I knew the answer, I just hadn't seen this thread, lol.

Well, it's an easy thread to start with...
Originally Posted by CustomXSpunjah

Ok, full size Ford? Select: F250, F350, F450, F550, F650, F750. Although I'm guessing It may have been the 350 or 450, since 550+ are all meant for special cargo... although they drop seriously big torque numbers (to compensate for the weight they have to carry).
Example numbers: F750's Power Stroke V8 drops 200HP @ 2600 RPM... small amount, I know. But what about torque? Well, they only have a whopping 520 lb-ft Torque @ 1500 RPM.
Although the F350 anf F450 come with a more powerful engine, ironically: 325 HP and 570 lb-ft torque.
[Correction] The special cargo versions start with the F350 all the way down to the F750. My mistake.





Nicest ride for me was a Mercedes Benz ML350... not a car, but still nice to drive.
Nicest car has to be a friend's WRX. Not that much impressive, but still...

The thing about the ford is that it made all that power through a stock intake and flowmasterse only. The only real mod he had was a chip... can you say turbo diesel

I might have a fewer posts than you have, but let me ask you one thing.

What's your measure of one being a newbie or not?

For me, you are just throwing words at people like me because we don't have as many posts than you have. I've been on this site for quite long time and I surely don't consider myself as a newbie.

No offence. Have a nice day
