Yes, of COURSE the Diablo is weak! All cars without nitrous and over 800 hp are weak and should be treated like disposable pieces of shit, didn't you know that???
*cough*
Yes, sure, a car that threatens to kill you with ever prod of the throttle, a chassis that loves to spin...not drift. Yeah, that's "weak"...
I think the guy who said Diablo's are weak....is a tool.

Listing:

1: 1980 Vauxhall/DTV Chevette HSR Sprint. Small hatch with a 260 HP, 2.3L Slant 4.
2: 2005 Ariel Atom 2
3: Caterham SV with the RST 2.0L V8
4: 1971 Dodge Demon 340, twin turbo, lowered by maybe 2 inches, lightened, and tweaked to handle....hee hee.
5: Shelby Cobra 427 Competition (Not S/C)
6: 2004 Renault Sport Clio V6 255
7: 1992 Lotus Carlton (3.6L I6 twin turbo, 377 hp @ 5200 rpm, 419 ft/lbs @ 4200 rpm....stock. Worlds Fastest Production Saloon/Sedan at 176 mph....Remember, all factory BMWs and Mercs are "restricted" to 155. Why would I want this? Well...I need a daily driver
8: 1976 Toyota Celica GT (Swapped 7M-GTE or 2JZ-JTE...for fun)
9: 1973 Datsun 240Z with L28 Turbo engine...
10: The crazy part: 1985 Pontiac Acadian (Chevy Chevette), caged/framed, dropped in 4.2L Jaguar V8 + tranny, modded Dana 35 rear axle, custom carbon-fibre wide fenders ala #1 (Vauxhall Chevette HSR). Front Fascia from a South American Chevette or an Austrailian model I belive the CS...can't remember.

*blinks* Wait, I just made a list without Lamborghini, Ferrari, or Mclaren showing up!
Sweet!

Re: what top 10 cars do u want in your garage?

actually... you can have the limiter 'removed' on modern mercedes by request.... although this is in actual fact, just a lifting of the limiter to something like 186mph or some other nonsensical figure.

*nods* Still, it is not as it is made from the factory :P
Besides, I like the look of the Carlton a lot better than most modern Mercs or BMWs. Yes yes, BMW is a great driving machine, something that flatters your every moe...but where's the fun in that? *chuckles*
Eh, either way, I'm a nut and prefer the odd-ball cars for some reason.

Re: what top 10 cars do u want in your garage?

o yes i couldnt control a diablo, wow...are you a two year old? Pre-vw lamborghinis, may have been nice cars once you took them off the lot but do to the lack of testing and engineering capability they were un reliable. Its sad how many people are easily swayed by the swoopy lines and large engines of a lamborghini, but when push comes to shove ferraris reliabilty and performance will kick the ass of any lambo. Those cars were just for show, diablos is a sheep in wolf's clothing. But they are getting better, and they may also enter le mans, which would mean they would have more tests and become better cars.

1. Carbon Black E46 ///M3, BBS RS-GT wheels in Diamond Black with the polished lip, Dixis Japan Exhaust with DTM style tips, AA SC, and custom Dyno Tune. The weekend/fun/street/highway racer and "my baby" car
2. Seastone E39 ///M5, stock. Daily driver
3. Saphire Black Gemballa 750GT EVO. The track car
4. Saphire Blue Pearl Lamborghini Murciélago. Becuase you just really need to brag sometimes

Those are my top five. All I would ever really need. However, if I had to keep going...

6. Audi RS6 Avant-The wife's car
7. '05 Honda CBR1000RR
8. Lamborghini Gallardo-The wife's Lambo
