AudiOn19s Posted June 22, 2017 Report Share Posted June 22, 2017 That's a damn fast lap. This car is a pretty impressive package. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caseyctsv Posted June 22, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 22, 2017 looks like it couldn't pull past 168 mph. I am guessing it is the drag from all of the downforce-generating add-ons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smokey Posted June 23, 2017 Report Share Posted June 23, 2017 It's crazy how composed and well balanced these cars are from the factory these days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zeitgeist57 Posted June 24, 2017 Report Share Posted June 24, 2017 - Wait 12 years. - Buy one with 75k miles for less than $20k. - Ditch the Trofeo R's and smack some MileStars on it. - Replace worn magnetorheologic shocks with some Sensen's from RockAuto. - Install new Centric rotors and pads. Tell everyone at Cars and Coffee how this thing will do 7:16 on the 'Ring. In all seriousness, any car guy born before 1980 has to appreciate that we now live in a world where the same Alpha-chassis Camaro and 6g Mustang can be offered from turbo-4cyl through body-in-white drag racer to Nurburgring-thumper. $20k buys you a barely-used sports coupe with remainder of a factory warranty that does 0-60 in 6 seconds. It's really a great time to be a driver. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
