That isn't my point though. My point is that the 427 Ford isn't shit or lowly.
Oh, and there are plenty of road going cars that will beat a McLaren.

hahaah...how can the mclaren LM's day have passed if no factory car made can beat it on a road course? Nothing from Porsche, ferrari, anything from japan or america!! and don't give me some crap about a modified viper..blah blah..i'm talking about factory cars..the mc laren f1 even in stock form, not the lm, is faster on a road course then any factory car available.
beat in what?? what do you mean by beat? straight line? pull more g's? sure...so what ... i would like to find a road going car, from a factory..of any kind, that can beat a mclaren lm around nurburgring?? name one!! just one!! and the S7 would not even get close...the lm weighs 2300lbs with over 650 HP.
there is nothing wrong with the 427, but if i had the money...no way would i pick that over the bmw engine in the mclaren...it isn't even an option. I would love the 427 in the S7 in a car, because i could probably afford it, but if money is no option..give me the v12 m power engine anyday. I think a single drive in an LM would change your mind. I have a video of a guy driving the McLaren at speed....if you want i can give it to you...it isn't even an LM..it's a big download though.
