haha thanks for the pics and girlfriend comments..but yea sr def has the power to put ya to 200...maybe someone should try some custom gear setup or something, wouldnt be to hard to set a speed record for the 240 if someone did it..but ya diablo's are one of my favorite cars..especially the VTT! as for driving the car here at school, i dont have much choice lol its my only vehicle..and although it doesnt seem to be the case, im nothing close to a show *****, i drive my car hard and dont trip when it gets damaged..its all part of the fun..hell i wouldnt even have aero if i wouldnt have gotten that insurance money lol. as for what i would get if i got diff wheels i dont really know, something cheap with a good offset, the mustang wheels arent lookin to bad, but at this point im one of the few who still rock zeldas and i like being different so i duno..

EDIT: didnt mean to sound like a dick, sorry
correct me if i'm wrong, but you try to avoid both lift and drag with a car. With an airplane, you are only battling drag. 10hp solar cars can go 100+mph, with the propper gearing and streamlined shape.

lamborghini has sold out to rappers/pop stars. They are just rich man's jewlery. Poser's cars for people who watch MTV and have never heard of Ferrari.

That being said, the Muira is one of the best looking cars of all time. That was like 30 years ago though.

indeed there are now rich mans jewelry but you that doesnt reduce the quality of the car, 240s are the new civic but we cant hate them now because every ricer has/wants one..either way it doesnt matter, ferrari vs lambo is an ongoing battle that we could argue about like ka vs sr...how bout we argue about what color i should paint my wheels lol
