well, M5 comp official time is like 3.1, C&D did 2.8 in the standard version (with 1 ft roll out as standard for US publication?)

should be measured on a green light.

Can you elaborate on the differences

You can be like bawlin and foo (991), or in the cool kids club with me

Don't ever compare me to foo.

that's probably why most of the time AMG might beat M on stop light...

Cheaters. 0-60 actually means 0-60.
i guess that's why independent tests are so important.

When I win the GT3 RS and sell it for a Cayman (used, naturally aspirated) what club will I be in?

 

[Piobaire]

The imaginary club?

Actually forget about Porsches. Great successful news!!

2020 Audi RS6 Avant bows at Frankfurt with 592 hp, 190-mph top speed

For too long, we've missed out on the best wagons Europe has had to offer. With the new RS6, Audi is poised to make amends.

Just like some McLarens (not sure if yours has it), this new Audi has lines that crossfeed from opposite-side shocks so they can control roll without an anti-roll bar.

I thought rolling starts were slower that standing starts? Forces the engine to start at low RPM on the low point of the power band, while standing starts let you start with the engine powered up and just force the excess energy to bleed out in slip and tire spin?

I have a used, naturally aspirated Cayman too so you can still be in my club

I don’t think it’s cheats you can get the better than manufacture number on BMW if you launch well. On green light stop you can’t really do launch control so you just step on it

Yesterday as I was driving home I saw what looked like an older FJ Cruiser pull out a few cars ahead of me. After some stop and go traffic I get behind the FJ and realize it is one of the Icon FJ44s. I have to say it looked really good in this sand color with a black top pretty much the same as below. When I checked out what these things go for, in the $150K-$200K+ range, it reminded me that if I had to choose a sub-$200K car, hell even choosing a fun sub-$100K car would be tough....what would I buy?

I saw that...kind of weird for a big wagon, but i guess it’s all a feature of the trick height-and-everything-adjustable system. To get that in a McLaren, you have to buy a super-series (720, 675, 650)...the poverty-spec 570’s only have normal mechanical suspensions.
