agreed. your brother is comparing a pony car to an autobahn car. he should be comparing his porshe to a saleen S7 or the GT. who do you think comes out on top? my vote there is american muscle! oh tell him you can whip any hyundai or daewoo ever made! that's a better comparison than his. at least all these are affordable by average joes(janes).

I beat a Porshe once with my Lightning... [sm=smiley20.gif]

Didn't beat him by much, about a few feet, but boy was he pissed getting his *** handed to him by a truck... [sm=jawdrop.gif]

Saud, your brother spent a lot of money for his status symbol. You spent a whole lot less and are having just as much fun as he is. He probably is just jealous, so next time he starts feeding his ego at your expense, just pat him on the back and tell him you understand and you still love him.

also i think topspeed is not an issue as GT05 has its limited electronically to too slow top speed (i guess due to US speed limits) ...
