Re: American Supercars

Re: American Supercars

There was a Vector in the movie Rising Sun that had Snipers, Connery...I think it was the only movie I had seen that car in...

The interior of that Vector kind of reminds me of my Vette but more flashy. I love the Vector already. So many buttons and displays it’s like being in a jet fighter.

As for the outside looks again I love em. Like my Vette but much more flashy. Since I will probably never get to so much as sit in a Vector, I wonder if I could just drop the body of one on my C4.

Re: American Supercars

Anyone else heard of Mosler MT900.. Photon.. etc. Vette engine in a super-light beautiful body. Not sure on specs at the moment, but I know they compete with the others for sure.

You weren't that far from the truth actually. Anyway, I found that quote along with some information about the W8 from this site http://www.team.net/www/ktud/vector.html

Anyway, to me, the Vector W8 is nothing more but an American version of the Lamborghini. The looks, engine, and performance seem to match it all to well. If you read that site though, the company that owned Vector owned Lamborghini.

Re: American Supercars

but look at the engine in the vector compared to the lambos of the same time oldsmobile v8 to lambo v12. Also why does that page think 500-600hp out of TTv8 is outragous? Thats actully quite tame but some of todays supercar standards.

i always thought that the proportions of the vector is alittle off. the over hangs were all wrong. and i always thought they were ugly compared to the countach. not to mention that the styling of the vector reminds me of vector triangles.

anyways looks wise, the GT takes the cake hands down. power wise though, the S7 TT. like what everyone said, if we could just put the engine from the S7 TT into the body of the GT then it would be perfect.

Different cars completely. Raptor is quite ugly.. though quite the performer.. the Photon/MT900 is quite beautiful.. almost looks like an S7 though.

Re: American Supercars

saleen engine into a modern GT?
with that money, why not just go and persuade someone to sell you an original GT40?
then there'd be no argument as to what car is better...
