Worlds greatest performance car...

[Car Freak]

No, Caparo T1s are burned to a crisp crisp crisp.

Must you disagree with everything i say? :rolleyes:

[Samurai Lincoln]

You all knew it was coming...

:D

I think anyone would struggle to argue against the F1.

I can't seem too, it's just too darn orange for me to hate ;)

Naaah...

 

 

This might work though :cheeky:

Here we go...

 

End.

^ Yay!!

Now I see a trend of everyone posting their favorite cars here, this thread is not about that. It's about cars that have been done in such a way, so they can be driven on their absolute limits. ;)

[T0M722]

can your posted car on first page do that koeni? :cheeky:

Ask the author

 

The best way to find out the idea of the thread is to ask the author - me.

 

The idea of this thread is to say one or multiple cars that you think have exceptional performance for what they have:

 

e.g. :

Espace F1 : same engine & power as f1 car - but heavier, and still just as fast.

 

speed 12: Low budget British company, no turbos or superchargers or LSD - but Mclaren F1 rivalling.

 

Nissan GT-R: same power as a Shelby cobra, and as heavy as an SLR - but faster than a LP560.

 

Get the idea? Good. :D

So, Koenigsegg, your post of a Koenigsegg doesn't count, right?

Actually the Lambo is faster.

May I say that Koenigsegg gets the best from it's 4.7l V8 (806 bhp) and Vette gets only 620 bhp from a 6,2l V8? ;)

[TDU 505]

May i argue that its twin supercharged? :D

 

But yea, in terms of engineering as a criterion, the Koenigsegg probably would win.

No you may not, because that it quite irrelevant really. It's the Best Peformance Car thread. Everyone has a favorite performance car so obviously, that is going to be the one they think it best.

[P4G4N1 Z0ND4 F]

Please go easy...

 

Now, please go easy on this car - I KNOW IT IS RUBBISH REALLY,

but for what it has:

 

a 659 cc engine (0.6 liter)

 

3 cyclinders

 

63 bhp

 

and its a Daihatsu......which doesn't help...

 

...but it does do 0-60 in 8.5 seconds...

 

WHICH I KNOW IS RUBBISH...

 

...BUT CONSIDERING ITS FRANKLY PATHETIC SPEC...

 

...thats not too bad really...

 

......and i somehow know that lots of you are going to have a

serious laugh over that...

[P4G4N1 Z0ND4 F]

Oops...

 

Oops, maybe i should have really attached a pic for that...

:D

 

[gingervette]

How about not double posting?

[TDU 505]

Now you're just contradicting yourself here

 

"Worlds greatest performance car..."

 

I hardly consider that a performance car. Sure its performance figures are impressive, but still aren't impressive enough to be considered "Performance"

 

And please, use the edit button, don't double post.

[Car Freak]

Well I don't see why it can't be called a performance car... Sure it's pretty slow by all conventional meanings of the word, but this is probably the literal iteration of the term "pocket rocket". I'd say it's a performance car because it's been specifically tuned for a sporty drive, and has been engineered to the max of what the Jap k-car rules allow.

 

And P4G4N1, this forum is pretty strict about double posting so do remember to use the "edit" button at the bottom of your posts...

You Knew This was coming lol

SSC Ultimate Aero

 

Reason: Half as many cylinders,More Power 200 more i believe, Half as many turbos,Costs one hell of alot less, IMO Better Looking,and faster then the Veyron.

[gingervette]

Even better...

 

It has a wing, that must mean it's fast!
