you've said you rode in a 9FF 911 before right? this one literally makes 1400hp lol


60-120 in under 4 seconds!!

 

No, it doesn’t and I am. I looked at the LS500 a bit but my concerns there are more significant. I would be buying used regardless. I like the idea of owning a V8.

 

The vast majority of them. Knock on wood, I've never had a car damaged by a valet.

It wont lol

 

it died of depression induced suicide from being so lame and ugly.

 

I put it out of its misery lol

God I hated that car!

 

Cmon now. 50mph in parking lot isn’t beating on them. If that’s the case, you’re slaying cars on cannonball runs. 🤣

Plus this was over 20+yrs ago.

I’ve heard multiple tuners say 87 pulls timing so I’m not doubting you. It’s just not worth extra $21 to me honestly. A blower will force me to use 93😏

The vehicles that were tuned to run 91/93 get 93. The others that are tuned for minimum 87 get 87.

All of them🤥

I will say this, good thing to thoroughly look over your car before you leave valet. Depending on situation, I will pay valet extra for them to keep my vehicle up front and not to be moved vs parking it in a hairy self parking spot.

No one in valet is jumping over each other to park this.

The hate is real. 🤣 It’s not the favorite car in the household but great at its purpose




Ended up instead taking the RAV4 hybrid on the 200 mile turnaround trek today.

 

For the comment about a front wheel driver being fun with a hand brake, mine is not that. It’s a switch. I enjoy the Civic a bit in twisties but it’s basically an appliance to me. It’s comfortable on the long drives. It didn’t torture me like the rental Mazda SUV I rented did. I don’t want to sit in an office chair on a 7 hour drive. That’s basically the SUV/Minivan/CUV position. I prefer a seat. In a car. To each their own. I don’t value sitting up high. I look further down the road than most drivers do, apparently. Not saying I am better. I am saying it does matter and regardless of vehicle, most drivers in the US appear to not do that.

 

Yep and lord it annoyed me that the fastest thing I've been in is a 6!

 

🤣

That’s why AJT won’t drive any vehicle faster than his V8s with fewer cylinders😆

 

Well I will say this, a similar power/speed R8 and viper both felt WAY better when off full boost and just generally smoother/more confident. Sound is also a hell of a lot better but at the time that flat 6 was the fastest thing I'd been in.

TT Gen5 vipers are a hell storm from 100-200 though, literally unbelievably violent. Doesn't feel dangerous in the chassis though

 

We had that 2 gen IS350 that would do 0-60 in 4.9 seconds.

I drove it like twice. Did nothing for me. Merc isn’t as fast as that but the engine is a trillion times better.

 

Except get you to 60 faster😆

 

And lose to 80 lol!

 

Who cares???

That IS350 literally sounded like a vacuum cleaner. I wasn't a fan because I was used to the LS which is also slower, but feels wayyyyy better down low and the UZ is a billion times more refined than that V6.

The Merc is an exhilarating car to drive. It's not fast by today's standards but oh it's plenty fun. Big, under stressed V8.

 

I always tip them upfront too
