how about instead of name calling, you refute the poor handling characteristics that even a pair of owners agree exist in the so-called "ultimate road car."

so, if you notice the post above; this brings about a very good point.

finally some people are seeing the McLaren F1 as a poor handling car... so lets take this a bit further

the McLaren F1 is bloody fast in a strait line
American "sports" cars are bloody fast in a strait line
Eropeans, and well.... too many people, love the McLaren F1
American "sports" cars are loved by many in the US, and otherwise called " "so called sports cars" in Europe.
Europeans claim they prefer a good handling car over a fast one with decent handling.

Yet, this poll
http://www.motorworld.net/forum/show...=42305&start=0
shows europeans largely prefering strait line rockets; with the ocassional true handling biased car. the SL65 is not a handler.

so, in conclusion, many of these european's are actually much closer to the same likes and wants as Americans. Also, Americans seem to generally prefer the balanced approach in this same poll.....

So, with this in mind, perhaps Europeans here are more minded like they precieve Americans? and the Americans are more minded how the Europeans precieve themselves?

so with those conclusions, the F1 will be chosen over a lesser powered car with a more balanced approach.

the results show for themselves, and i am only the bearer of this news
