    Its heavy and powerful. Anything can be heavy and powerful.

    Making something light and powerful is a different story.

    4,235 lbs.

    493 @ 6100 RPM

    516 @ 2650 RPM

    go speed all you want. Just realize when you hit the brakes, you're trying to stop something almost twice as heavy as my car in the same distance.

    isnt anything special... double check that, probably one of the hottest cars out there, and just because it is heavy, doesnt mean its still a fast and powerful car....

    there is a massive power war being waged by manufacturers these days. 5 years ago it was very rare to see engines producing over 400hp/lb-ft torque. Now it seems commonplace in the luxury segment. VW, Ford, BMW, DaimlerChrysler, GM, etc. are all hopping on board.

    hell....in the family car segment it looks like 300hp will become the norm if this keeps up.

    is it me, or are many manufacturers going overboard with the power war?

    in many cars it just seems like overkill....and the added power also adds weight in most cases.

    now it seems the industry has reached a point where a 50hp increase in power does little for actual performance.

    does the normal driver really need 400hp to commute to work or go grocery shopping?

    will the power war ever end?

    first off, your normal driver, isnt driving an 80,000, 90% of americans drive shitty cars with the horsepower between 130-200, and then u have the exclusive few that drive cars with >270hp......

    u are probably right that it is becoming an overkill, in reality in does matter because a majority of people who buy the cars with a shit load of horsepower never get chance to use it too its full potential anyway...

    peace

    How ironic that a schlep such as yourself has to bust on others' appearance. I assume that matchstick in your sig is you. You scrawny-assed, anorexic African famine victim; if you had dreads, I'd grab you by your ankles and use you to mop the floor. I've seen wounds that were better dressed than you are.
