thar car is very sexy, and its in my color scheme too!

SC/T02 · 04-20-2003, 02:18 PM

I like it. The fastest car not talking top speed but 0-150 is the Lingenfelter Corvette. That is what I would take first. Something about VW making that car scares me.

2002GT · 04-20-2003, 02:45 PM

I thought VW's were stong built cars, or atleast the engines? But I may be wrong?

2 words -

Sledgehammer Vette.

It may not hold the record anymore for fastest, but damn. 258mph out of a vette is impressive anyway you look at it. Hell, anything out of Lingenfelters hands is impressive.

that car was in motor trend, i think over a year ago, i remember reading about it. At least the pics for that site that was posted were. I love the interior of that car.

antirice · 04-21-2003, 07:23 PM

anyone ever heard of John Meany? he has a nice 'vette, the guys at Hot Rod had it up over 220 on an expressway

mfuller · 04-21-2003, 08:43 PM

How do you define fast? Acceleration from 0-60? 0-100? 0-150? 1/4 mile ET? Standing mile? Top speed? Fastest around a road course? Way to many variables.
I haven't seen much instrumented testing of the Bugatti, but until I do, my vote for the all-around fastest street car is still the McLaren F1.

I can't believe I actually forgot about that car. That is one badass car. Too bad they were only like 1.3 mil when they were in production...

Compare bang for the buck. Vey quick. That is on stock corvette wheels. Drag slicks but no wider of a tire. Imagine if you could really hook up that car.

When you can go 0-100 almost a second quicker than we can hit 60 that is fast.

There are different packages for Lingenfelter. One package with the TT 427 LS1 the car did 9.2 @ 150 mph in the 1/4. 0-60 1.9 seconds, top speed 240 mph.

What a ride!

John Lingenfelter is a GOD!

Kitt · 04-22-2003, 02:52 PM

i got an 8.95 @ 153.63 vid of the same car

SC/T02 · 04-22-2003, 06:48 PM

That was the "base package" specs I gave. The 427 was faster. To put it into prespective it outran an F-18 fighter Jet on takeoff. Not bad for a car. Faster 0-60 than any crotch rocket and it weights about 3,000 LBS more.

Greed4Speed · 04-23-2003, 07:11 AM

All these cars are in the "world's least affordable street cars" category as well.

SC/T02 · 04-24-2003, 08:21 AM

yea, but its no 300,000+ car. Its like the cost of a real Hummer. Not even a 911 price.
