WOW that whole list is fucked up that has been stated a few times now if you watch the fucking show and look at the list the Exige is listed at 1.26.9 right below the 1.26.8 of the C6 bitch.

HAHA no prob as I said, we are just different, both people and laws/prices and so on

Nobody has the right to say who is "better" as there is no "better" field

Hell my dream is to live in the depth of Alaska and have the biggest Suburban ever who cares it is does 0.05 MPG

I wasn't the one that kept comparing the C6 with the GT3, but since some dipshits don't pay attention and think the GT3's TG time was on a dry circuit, instead of soaking wet, that's how the GT3 got into this discussion.

Sure - I engaged in Jeremy Clarkson hyperbole for one sentence.. so sue me. I said "beat" instead of "equalled".

The 2004 Z06 has lapped the Nurburgring in 7:56 - a time EQUAL to a popular posted GT3 time.

So I said "beat" instead of "equal" - big whoop.

No shit Sherlock - but you still insisted on this juvenile response

Nevertheless, calling a Porsche 911 GT3 a limited-edition, hand-made, premiere, no-holds-barred, no-expense-sparred, trimmed-down, light-weight, racer-wannabe uber-sportscar is comical, and couldn't be farther from the truth. Childish might be a better word.

Perhaps you are confused about what "couldn't be further from the truth" means... :roll: Here's a link you may find of use http://www.dictionary.com/

You were never anything but. :roll:

If you could comprehensively read english, you would have realised you snapped when you misread one of my previous comments. And there is no fucking way I will back down for a Dutchie now - never did while I was growing up and certainly won't start now.

Tone down, it is easy to be confused...



You calling me a bitch, now that is funny....

I just said you were wrong. You snapped at that, not me...

WTF ? Who fucking brought the whole car into this discussion ?

You probably looked up the definition of handling on that site...well done.
But enlighten me, since when is a GT3 a racer-wannabe ?

I never misread anything, and I didn't snap. You just don't like it when somebody corrects you. I'd care less though....

Well if your gonna put a 6 litre in a car, you may as well get a decent power output

Power per litere of a GT3: 107bhp

Power per litre of a C6: 67bhp

Assuming the new Z06 will have 500bhp

Power per litre will be about 83bhp

You know a model airplane has even better hp/L than any porsche or ferrari, or other "high tech" motor you can bring up.
I guess I'll swap one of those beauties into my vette :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll:

[T-Bird]

Oh who gives a crap about hp/liter were getting into ricer terms here and let's look at the torgue of the two:
C6: 400 (you don't get that out of a 3.6)
GT3: 285
and GT3 has all that fancy veriable valve timing and shit and the LS2 uses Pushrods that explains a little.
(not saying Pushrods are bad)

[LotusGT1]

Point is ?

[mindgam3]

lol, sorry did i touch a nerve there you two?

It just shows how under-developed the engine is compared to a decent car

Originally Posted by RC45 That is a s good as a signed application to Ricer 101..

lol, meaning what exactly?

How is stating some facts about a car "getting into ricer terms"

The torque is only so much because its a large displacement engine. That's just natural, there isn't much to rave about there....

[LotusGT1]

under-developed ? It does what it has to do.

[T-Bird]

the point is who gives a flying fuck about hp/ltr?
Oh that's right Ricers!
If you know anything about what makes a car go it's called Torque and that seems to be something that the GT3 doesn't have, or many Porsches for that fact.

[TT]

Nope, also Swiss ppl gives a crap about it too many cubic centimeters causes higher takes so a hypedout 500 cc engine boosting out those 400 hp would be ideal here

Yes, I know the GT3 doesn't go. The car laps the 'Ring in 7:54...but you're right, it doesn't go :roll:
