    Is a 14 second car fast? I think my 1st gen M5 will do a <15s quarter bone stock, and it's a 20 year old 4 door car. Sure, 20 years ago it was the fastest 4 door car ever made. Today, Minivans and V6 accords are that fast.

    I still see no reason to brag about a disposable american car that you need to mod just to make it break into the 14s in a quarter mile. Especialy when straight-shots are all american cars are good at. (stopping, turning, etc... not so much)

      ^ Exactly my point.

      'Turning? What is that, I trailered my beast here because I have slicks on it and I run race gas so I can get some sweet 12 sec time slips! I'm a sleeper!!!11! EL OH EL.'

      I maybe can't outrun EVERYONE on that GP-douchecanoe site, but I guaran-damn-tee that I will outbrake, outcorner, and probably be able to sell my car for more $$ when the time comes.

                Thats cool. I have no idea how many sub 12 sec grand prixs there are

                I think they are a good DD platform. I enjoy my GS a good amount driving it every day.

                We should line up this summer, that would be fun. :icon_cheers:

                      I love how cars "will be xxx horsepower" how about being realistic and saying "I am hoping for 400+ horsepower" 410 seems a little too specific...and what if your car has more room to tune are you going to say "Fuck it, I got my 410, this is good enough....unstrap me from the dyno"

                      And yeah...410whp civic will be a BITCH to drive.

                          ^Yup, start at like 225 and work your way up.

                          the white car from SLS was running mid 10s on 420whp.
