:) :) :)

Toyota Prius...all the way ;)

Everybody wants to have a bigger dick, but Ferraris are very expensive and only add a little. But, they waste ALOT of money.

Corvettes are alot of bang for the buck!

Acura NSX was very nice, but it was discontinued. They will have a new V10 supercar called the Honda HSC, due out sometime between 2007-2009. That's something I want to see.

:thumbsup

I like cars, but thouse two are to much for me

Id go Ferrari

Vette = redneck's ferrari

Both great cars. If I had to choose I would pick the ferrari.

At the end, what matters, is what do YOU like more. Looks like many gfy'ers buy stuff to impress others. I only buy stuff to satisfy my own needs.

And laugh at me, but I am so looking forward to the new Nissan GTR :)

:P

They both suck in the rain, and the only time I care to be in a car is when its raining.

while the latest one (Z06) looks like a massive improvement, it cant be compared to a 430 as a whole...

See last weeks top gear to find out why ;)

Take it to a real track and watch it get its ass kicked by cars with less 300bhp :winkwink:

But like I said its a massive improvement (prolly because it was partialy developed here in Europe) over older Vettes :thumbsup

Thats like saying you could have Angelina Jolie but you just stick with a normal woman...and they somehow are alike :1orglaugh

Well, the LS7 isn't mass produced. Each one is hand build and can be had for around $13K

ferrari...:)

Real track?

It did 7:42 around nurburgring with street tires :)

BUT BUT the ferrari salesman sucks your dick when you buy one! :1orglaugh

I used to post on a board with a guy that had a turbocharged ford pinto that I'm quite certain would hand any lambo or ferrari's ass to it in any type of competition. a good power to weight ratio does wonders :winkwink:

most of these comparisons are completely irrelvant as to which car is going to be the top performer anyway, at least if the cars are being driven on the street. the differences are negligible. only an idiot with a death wish would push a car's handling or braking abilities to anywhere near it's limit on a public roadway. the acceleration abilities are so close to one another that road conditions and the driver are going to make a much greater difference than the automobiles in that instance.

If someone were to actually be interested in racing competitively on a racetrack, that's a whole different matter, and one that probably doesn't apply to many (or any) here. Which car would be most appropriate for that would have more to do with the class rules, and if modifications were allowed the vette would likely prove the best option simply for budgetary reasons and parts availability.

I get the feeling alot of people here select their vehicles as a matter of prestige more than any other factor; I personally wouldn't select a car for prestige although I do appreciate exclusivity. There's something nice about having a car like no other, regardless of whether or not it would win some theoretical race that is unlikely to ever occur.

I'm single so the vette is everyday for me . . with the caddy sts on ocassion for kicks

yes but the Honda will not be a 'muscle car' like the vette

true dat :thumbsup except a lambo :winkwink:

*** i drive a 04 vette and i gotta tell ya . . . don't really care if I'm seen in it or not . . . been in the moutains all day cruzing . . was in the desert cruzing this morn . . luv that vette

Actually the question was...

Can a corvette beat a ferrari on a quatermilie?
Yes, ferrari is out if both drivers have the same level.
Ferrari F430
0-60 mph: 4.0 sec
0-100 mph: 10.0 sec

Corvette Z06:
0-60 mph: 3.6 sec
0-100 mph: 9.2 sec

On a track?
Yes and no.
Which track?
Lotus Elise can beat any car on a non-highspeed track due to terrific traction control that is simular to go-carts. To understand which car is better for a specific track you must test it or calculate if you know all the details about both cars.

I would tend to agree with that.:thumbsup

I should say, also, that I have been fortunate enough to test drive both vehicles recently. The difference in the attitude of the salesman in the passenger seat is all the difference that really matters.

2hp

haha... I wouldn't want to be seen in a Vette though. I'm Italian not Redneck.

Yeah I bought the Ferrari but my dick didn't get any bigger. :(

ferrari is always the way to go

Corvettes are a dime a dozen.

In the last episode of Top Gear Stig did a lap in the latest corvette and beat the Ferrari by about a second or so, apparently the new corvette is nothing like the old ones...

Stupid thread.

ferrari all the way...
