I mean, I like the blue one, and I could own it... it would be cooler if it had the blue interior... but that purple one with the purple interior & gauge cluster is ******* cool looking.

I can't imagine it would be hard to find someone to take Lucifer off your hands. You have too much invested in teh PuRpL3. Get the Cosmo as your daily and race the formy.

The best run I got of the day... 14.259 @ 102.32 mph.
And on that run, I babied it out of the hole, then hammered it all the way down the track, and I don't think I could have hit the gears faster.
Highest trap speed I had all day was 102.49.
So the question is here... what am I doing wrong, or is there also something wrong with the car? The trap speeds are disturbingly low for a M6 car, I think. As soon as I got home I fired up the Formula and took it out for a drive, and it definitely seems faster.
I don't know what to think... but it's safe to assume I'm pretty disgusted with the WS6 right now.

While I think the purple GTO sounds great, just imagine what you could do to the other two purple cars you already have without that extra car payment. And extra insurance payment, and extra maintainence costs..........................

It was the one car in the ad without a price.

Already looked it up... If I remember correctly, the number is 332.
