Ford Shelby Musteng 1969 GT 500 (or something like that :D) Im thinking of.. Eleanor.. from "60 seconds"... I just love that car :wub:

Well I like alot of other version of the mustang too..

I'd have to agree. Either that or an Aston-Martin V12 Vanquish....sweeeeeeeeeeeeeet....

Lexus is not just about horse power if that's all you care.

Lexus has all the luxury both inside and outside the car. It is the accessories and design that make you impressed.

Also, with a V8 engine and 290 HP, it is very impressive if you compare it to similar class of car. LS430 or LS400 models are very heavy, and it always amazes people that a car with such heavy weight can go that fast. Beat that and then tell me your V6 is so great and so on.

I know all that because I have a 1994 LS400. 10 years old.. V8, but has 250 HP.

I drove BMW once, but once I made a switch to Lexus, I never looked back. I never regret either.

meet the 745Li.

i drove a bmw once, and i never look back. i never regret it either.

Wow, that's the first non-ugly car Chrysler has made! (okay, they have some okay looking cars, but most of them make me want to puke!)

Chrysler ME Four-Twelve is rated to be the most powerful car you can drive legally in the street with only the premium gas(not the racing gas most supercar need).

Here is some spec of this supercar

* horsepower -- 850 hp/850 lb-ft

* Top speed: 248 mph

* 0-60 mph in 2.9 seconds

* 0-100 mph in 6.2 seconds

::::: Power-to-Weight :::::

The power-to-weight ratio of a car is simply the total power output divided by the weight (usually the curb weight -- the weight with no passengers or cargo). The result will be a fraction of a horsepower per pound of car. Here are some famous high-performance cars and their power-to-weight ratios.* How does the ME stack up?

* Chrysler ME Four-Twelve - .295 hp/lb

* McLaren F1 - .251 hp/lb

* Bugatti 16/4 Veyron - .230 hp/lb

* Ferrari Enzo - .219 hp/lb

* 1965 Ford GT40 Mk1 - .213 hp/lb

* Ferrari Koenig 360 Modena - .174 hp/lb

* Lamborghini Countach - .139 hp/lb

* Dodge Viper RT/10 - .131 hp/lb

* Chevrolet Corvette Z06 - .123 hp/lb

* Porsche 911 Turbo - .119 hp/lb

* Ford Mustang Cobra R - .107 hp/lb

* Ferrari Testarossa - .104 hp/lb

Everyone choose slow accelerating cars :no:, me wants power!!!!

So my pick is The Koenigsegg CC

  • 655 HP
  • Top speed of 243.5 Mph (392 Kmph)
  • 0 to 60 MPH in 3.5 Seconds, or 0- 100 Kmph 3.5 secs

Then you are calling the F1 a slow acceleration car?

That is just ignorant..... they are completely different cars for different purposes. GT2 is aimed for pure speed whilst the GT3 is a lightweight NA track car. And if you're looking for a daily driver the Turbo is a much better proposition.

It's hard to decide when you're asked to make a choice between the GT2 and GT3. They're both amazing cars. But the reason I chose a GT2 is simply because it gives you torque when you want it while the GT3 makes you wait for it; plus I like the exterior styling of the GT2 :drool: more than the 3 (interior is pretty much the same). Looking at the GT2, you can't tell wether it's evil or elegant. :p Overall the two cars come very close to eachother. Although the GT2 is fastest factory 911 ever and can hit 198MPH, the GT3 isn't that far behind with a top track speed of 190MPH. The acceleration times are not that far off from eachother as well. Where the biggest difference lies is the $$$. I mean value was never the GT2's strong point being nearly doubled the price of a GT3. :wacko:

The GT3 is better for drivers that want a track capable car that is understated, graceful and powerful. The GT2 on the other hand is better suited for drivers who want a car that can be driven on the track, but more often on freeways and such where there can be long stretches of road with the ocassional bend. If I were given the choice one day to drive either the GT2 or the GT3 to work... I'd have to take the bus. :cry:

[GLOW=orange]Thats good and all, but whats its mileage like?!?! :woot:
Lexus is not just about horse power if that's all you care.

[GLOW=orange] I agree, the Lexus is more of an 'exclusive' car. I've been thinking again, and the possibilities are endless for me, but a few more cares to add to my list would have to be the BAR Honda F1 XD or last years LM Panoz XD or Marcos Ambrose or Glenn Seton's BA Falcon (Marcos Ambrose)

So add them to the previous list of:

  • My dream cars
  • Ford GT40
  • Ford Mustang
  • A rebuilt Austin A50
  • One of the new Mercedes S-Class
  • Audi A8
  • BA or AU Ford Falcon XR8

    • UK funds £60M AI labs to challenge US tech dominance with open-source models by Paul Hill The UK government has awarded £60 million to Oxford University and University College London to help keep the country in the AI race by focusing on open-source, low-hardware alternatives. This is in stark contrast to the expensive, closed-source, and high-hardware-requirement models being created in the United States and elsewhere. The money will be shared among two new academic research labs over six years to help them redesign the fundamental mathematics and architectures of AI to help the UK reduce its reliance on a handful of US tech firms. Commenting on the development, AI Minister Kanishka Narayan said: Initially, the government planned to fund just one lab with a £40 million investment, but with this update, two labs will now get access to a larger pool of funds. The labs are expected to invest in the top AI researchers at every career stage, with £2 million per lab being set aside for hiring at least ten doctoral students. The government hopes that this will grow the UK’s talent in the field of AI. The labs are also expected to work closely with the leaders in British AI research, such as the Alan Turing Institute and UKRI’s AI research hubs. This will allow the various teams to collaborate and create new solutions faster than they could alone. This development is pretty interesting for a number of reasons, chiefly that it could create a long-term challenge for US tech firms if these labs successfully scale these open-source architectures that bypass the proprietary ecosystems. It could also give British businesses and public sector organizations access to AI features without paying high licensing fees to foreign providers or needing to invest in specialized server infrastructure.
    • If I were them, I'm gonna hold out until the prices of these semiconductor parts normalize. $1,049 for a ~5 year old hardware is DoA, more so for gamers. On a deeper note, if Steam Machine is priced like this, we are soo effed up for the next gen Xbox console and PS6. With great AAA titles releasing at the end of the year, this just creates more demand...and more tears for me. Lol.
    • I suspect one reason its hard to justify subsidising is that it's not a locked down device like a traditional console is. In this climate sadly if it was a "good deal" you'd get people hoarding them for anything but gaming. The Lenovo Legion Go 2 with the Ryzen Z2 Extreme is £1300 here ($1720) for some context on how other SteamOS like devices are now priced. I got the older Z1 Extreme model for £300 with a dock, just shows how insane prices have got recently.
