Wow you guys got me. You're all so cool! I'm sorry but people go a lot faster than 7.5's in turbo cars so that's nothing to exciting. Now them going what 246mph in the standing mile. That's ******* awesome. I just am waiting to see a tuner car like that go fast N/A... Considering the fastest LS all motor went 8.5's. A car with goobs of boost could only muster another second faster... give me a break.

All those cars posted earlier don't hold a ******* candle to Larry Larson's Nova. A true street car that will go 6's...

In my world, a whole second faster is like 10+ car lengths. That's what is called a slaughter.

If you want to go fast, why does it matter how it's done?

I remember the old carb vs fuel injected etc type arguments that were much like this one.

Now you don't see em very much anymore.

Man, going from an 8.5 to a 7.5 is like going from a 12 to a 11 sec pass.

Classic styling, last of the air cooled Porsches. Thats why a 993Turbo will still pull $80k without breaking a sweat.

996 cars were produced in MUCH larger numbers. The styling was always controversial, and thats why they went back to 993 styling cues on the 997.
