And as far as this comparo goes........ what's the bloody point? I like both apples and oranges, they both have their own flavours and can be used in different ways.......... i'd take either one.

Too right!!! - O.mph to 100mph and back to 0.mph in 12.8seconds!!!

100mph = 160kph for you metriheads!

My Mistral is a poor mans equivalent, lateral g-forces in it will pop your ear-wax out the window too!

Never been a fan of the Shitstain, oh I mean Mustang but that IS VERY nice.

Here are some more Muscle cars for ya. Lets see first up is the Dodge Challenger, in a very sexy purple. Next we have a Mercury Cyclone, "gonna buy me a mercury and cruise it up and down the road," And finnaly a Chevy Nova SS, Not much to say about this one so I'll let the pic speak.

My mate a couple of blocks away has an orange Judge like that one plus a '66 GTO (the one with the stacked headlights) AND he has a '68 Firebird - Dangerous saw that one.

Gonna try rebuilding one myself here in a couple of years. Dont care if it has alot of power I just want the look and the sound so I can cruise town and show all those boi racers what a REAL car looks and sounds like.

Quite frankly if it had been a GSXR1K then he would have been rooted. In standard form the GIXER is anything up to a second quicker than the R1 around any track. A ZX10R would probably have done the job too. I'm not casting aspersions at R1's either, it's just that they are a bit more road oriented in standard form. One of the big comments I have noticed from various testers is that the lower footpegs of the R1 decrease ground clearance, and hence mid-corner speed at the track.

Compared to Niall McKenzie, Jason Plato is a skill less muppet. Jason Plato could no way, no how, hack it in F3 single seaters let alone qualify on the grid for an F1 race. Mr McKenzie on the other hand has been a BSB champion and former 500GP podium finisher.

Car vs bike.
Cat vs dog.
Ford vs Holden.
Rotary vs herringbone.
Hauraki vs The Rock.
Blonde Vs Brunette.

Will these ever, ever be decided one way or they other?

Oh come on guys you can't not like muscle cars. Get just as many chicks in these as you would on a bike. In fact you could get more most of these have seating for four but I'm sure if someone really wanted to they could get more than that.

And I will. I dont need a cage to score...

Alucard....... that other car is a Holden Monaro... one of the original ones....

Yes Aaron..... an R1 with all that investment would be a bit faster...... but a porsche is a heck of a lot useable......

If you're interested in a challenge......

The Lotus dealer out in Kumeu near Fuckland says he's been able to overtake a ton of bikes in his Elise around the twisties..... and I believe him...

Yeah but add a hot chick, some wine, good sounds and a look that you don't need to stand beside to notice and you appreciate some of these muscle-cars.
Chicks don't ALWAYS get turned on/enjoy a cold, wet and music free ride despite what you may think Aaron.

Jolie: "Which do you think is better, having sex or stealing cars?"
Cage: "I would have to say, having sex while stealing cars."

Oh and one more car, the Olds 442.
