  1. Had to chuckle at the comment about the location. In the US, a huge percentage of Lamborgini owners reside in California. They're not going to hold this event anywhere else from a location that'll attract the most people. If people want to see this event in Europe, you'll have to wait til' they release the current schedule though I'm betting Vallelunga will be one of the locations again.
  2. Terrific write-up, mate. I've posted your impressions on another forum (full credit & linked of course) & they appreciate it as well. Not necessarily. EA are able to sub-license Porsche out. The only issue is the price & terms Eden will have to agree to. What GT wanted with Porsche is something EA wouldn't allow.
  3. There is no camouflage. They're just using a modified Zonda body to test the new car's tech.
  4. What? There are several cars now-a-days that can match its performance. But, what should one expect? At 14 years old, the car is slightly dated.
  5. My Si is a tuner's car, end of story. It isn't too different from the Mugen special minus its aerodynamics and stiffer suspension setup. However, I don't care to modify it anymore than I have b/c I may not be keeping it. Makes a terrific track car, though, for my days at MSR. And I never said I beat them. I said I launch faster than them because I'm not retarded and just floor it. I've got a 0-60 in around 6 seconds and with 200 horses, so I know if launched properly, I'll easily gain several lengths. If I want to put punk ass high school kids in their place though, I'll use my TL-S.
  6. I have a Civic Si '08 & I know for a fact I can launch it faster than half the kids here with Mustangs or Camaros who don't know how to drive them properly. Don't hate.
  7. Some of these are very silly b/c ricers aren't smart enough to do half of them. 3 of these 4 apply to me, but my car has its reasons due to the small amount of aftermarket parts available.
  8. I won't lie. I'm not keen on the styling of the 370Z, but it has been given some warm reviews. Convertible-wise, I actually like it more than the coupe.
  9. Doomsday, heh? How many time exactly have we been told that? Oh, anyone remember 6-6-06? All the Bible Thumpers telling sinners to ask for forgiveness. Then 6-7-06 comes around. Oh look at that. No devil, no hell, no nothing. Some conspiracists need to really shut up unless they're absolutely positive.
  10. That probably means the fastest car in its competitive bracket, but certainly not the fastest lap there. Fastest lap there is a good minute faster.
  11. Such as? Just curious to know as I probably did not encounter them. I do like the Bonus round with Baille though. Such a mean twist at the end of it. :D
  12. I had to keep restarting as I kept getting black screens every few questions. 100% though. I have to say though, there is a lot of beautiful photography in it though.
  13. No, it quite did. It is a faster car, therefore it has beaten the Zonda F in completing the 'Ring in a shorter time. The Zonda F is the fastest production car on the 'Ring. However, when folks ask who are the fastest cars on the 'Ring, this M3 will have beaten the Zonda F. No one's comparing them directly as you can't, but in the end, the folks behind the BMW beat the Zonda F's time.
  14. Actually, it has beaten it. It just does not qualify for the Fastest Production Vehicle Record.
  15. Way to say the exact opposite of how the Corvette really performs. :rolleyes:
  16. If it was based around times, sure. However, internet races usually happen at times I'm not available.
  17. You are a Lamborghini Murcielago! You're not subtle, but you don't want to be. Fast, loud, and dramatic, you want people to notice you, and then get out of the way. In a world full of sheep, you're a raging bull. Not too surprising. :p
  18. Fastcar mag is quite wrong then. That is indeed, the Lexus LF-A. That prototype also features the same 3-tail pipes found on the LF-A Concept which further proves the point. But the general design should have been obvious enough.
  19. Real smoke is a lot thicker than what FM2 shows. It's unforunate that the smoke (of all things) is one of the few items ProStreet does better than FM2.
  20. I used to know the difference between a 350GT and a 400GT. It was a small part near the front of the car on the outside, but alas, I forget the part, and the picture is a bit small. Of course, going by production numbers, you are more than likely right that it is a 400GT 2+2.
  21. Actually, the 350GT was the first production car, and offered along side the 400GT from '64-'67 with 120 models. The 400GT started out as an option (400GT Interim) for the 350GT by allowing the buyer to have a larger 4-liter engine; 23 were made from '65-'67. The 400GT 2+2 came around in '66 as the previously mentioned option as a new model. Offered from '66 to '68, 247 were built. The Islero came around to take it's place for 1 year; '68 to '69. The combined Islero 400GT and 400GTS came to 225 models. During this time, the reason for such low production was thanks to the entry of the '66 Miura P400. The first Lamborghini car, though, is the 350 GTV, and resides as part of the Isao Noritake collection in Japan. The car itself, has a remarkable history as it was almost completely forgotten about for 22 years.
  22. Maybe, but the back sure doesn't. Barabus, also took down their site last I checked.
  23. All of this would be amazing to add, but the fact that they'll be trying to map an area even larger (assuming; would be stupid not to) than Oahu will make adding all these features tricky. All I want to really see is a more populated area where most of the location will be used by everyone. Honestly, as great as Oahu was for the game, there was just WAY too much of it modelled that people never used. All the forests and mountains, while great, are rarely used, or seen. So, it'd be nice to see a location where at least 3/4 of the map will be or have to be used by folks. This means no location with gigantic amounts of forests that rarely anyone will use.
  24. Nope. Technically, the McLaren is still faster than it. The CCR recorded a speed of 387.87 kph, while McLaren recorded a speed of 391kph. To this day though, the Veyron is still the fastest. It's been seen by Guiness 3 times hitting 253Mph.
  25. It does. That's what helps keep the PC version free online.
