RE: high speed comparison..
I always thought owning a RUF 911 Turbo would be badass. I forget how much power those are putting down, but they're supposed to be insanely fast on the track. RUF even did a version of the Cayenne Turbo I remember that was like 550+ horsepower or something like that.

Im not sure if youve ever heard of a Vector W-8, that too can drive upside down, I believe that it could do it @ 100mph, not positive on that figure though.

I'm with you 100% on that. The S7 is my all-time favorite dream car. I know there are faster or more prestigious cars than the S7, but there is something about that car that gives me a hard on. It could be the fact that not only is it fast, but also it is so well engineered and creates so much downforce that it could theoretically drive upside-down in a tunnel at speeds over 135mph [8D]
I can't remember where I read that, but I've always dreamed that it was true even though I'm not sure that it is haha

The S7 never seems to get compared against the big name cars, and it should be. I love the looks of those cars, maybe this is crazy, but they kind of remind me of a shark. I wonder why the 599 instead of the Enzo? I'm impressed at how well the 911 keeps up considering the large displacement disadvantage.
Where is the Saleen S7?

I can just hear him bragging..."yeah it has 750hp and it can be driven upside down" Thats when the rest of the ***-clowns around him say "wow! thats incredible! when did you do it?"

Driving upside down..LOL I wonder what douche bag bought a Saleen S7 because it can "theoretically" drive upside down. LOL

you guys do know that F1 cars are capable of this upside-down driving right? i know it is theory, but i saw those guys do it in men in black, so i know its possible.[sm=alcoholic.gif]

Don't know if any of you guys have heard about this car, Ultimate aero TT, made in the USA, and it is chevy powered, supposed to be the new king of speed, even topping the veyron, I just love the fact that is made in America. http://www.sscautos.com/ I could be wrong about he chevy powered I thought I read that somewhere but can't find it now.
