So my girlfriend wants to buy a Supra so I've been looking around. Holy **** these things are expensive. 55-60k for the big power ones. 18-22k for cars with junky bolt ons. I feel like they've gone up in price quite a bit since I was looking at buying one 2 years ago.

For some odd reason I'm thinking he was an Orange County Sheriff that was gunned down a few years ago...could be way off base though.

Fanboy problems...


Granted I walked em pretty hard in about 2 of the runs, but thats probably driver error or transmission not downshifting fast enough.

Look at the comment section:

dont look like he was racing you at all considering the other cars made it to the light before the 300m.

looks like you was racing yourself and decided to post this bullshit video because your a lame *** poser...

v=bTHX2xhKfFI . I know the guy, I've worked on the car. I was racing and he was racing back. I've explained this plenty but butthurt 300m owners continue to post up here. Fastest 300m EVER has been low 13s and ran thru 4+ transmissions on nitrous. You'll be ok. My CTS-V makes me an even 'lamer poser' now. LOL Took this video personal, huh?

+Andre Ellis You're more than welcome to run me. I'm in NYC. I'll point my camera back for you. Let me know when... long as its not raining or snowing, I'll give you the same 60 roll and see how you fair in that custom 300M of yours.

He's butthurt I beat a 300m in my old CTS 3.2L years ago, and wants to race my V... in a 300M (the Chrysler 300m, not a 300C Hemi or SRT8)

Is this guy on drugs?
Literally the fastest 300m I've seen was on 300mclub, on over a buck shot of dope cutting mid 13s and blew threw 4 transmissions. They are a low 16 second car stock. Any 'custom 300m' that shows up, I feel is going to get demolished. Has anyone seen a fast Chrysler 300m\Concorde\Intrepid?

Who refers to a modified car that is built to go somewhat swiftly as "custom"?

Had to comment since that guy said his 300m runs around 10 seconds at the tracks
