    Has this guy been smoking too much rubber?

    Been looking at things I really can't afford and came across this.

    I cannot see how this warrants its price...correct me if I am wrong however...
    Nail your colours to the mast that all may look upon them and know who you are.
    It takes a big man to cry...and an even bigger man to laugh at that man.

    "It is the epitome of a 70's supercar with the class and refinement of 2009 technology"

    What a delusional fuckwit. I think the bank called, and it's either the p.o.s. Camaro or the over-mortgaged house.

    I can't fucking help myself. I found another gem: "Automatic which is manually changed not unlike a Ferrari just built with high performance launch system."

    Well I'd buy a car off someone with such an awesome grasp of automotive technology, who wouldn't?

    And im pretty certain to run something that quick on the strip you'd need a rollcage? I thought if you aimed for under 12s you required one...

    I wonder how long it will be before it rips its gear box or drive train apart.

    The last I heard the fastest road-legal car in NZ was Reece Fish's twin turbo'd 56 Chevy, and that runs somewhere in the low eights.

    Check it out.

    And his times are here for all to see.

    There's a Ferrari Enzo next door to my parent's place in Parnell.

    I don't know that the Enzo would be a particularly good drag racer (650HP mid-engined V12 notwithstanding) but I'm sure that it's a faster road car than that Camaro.
    The greatest pleasure of my recent life has been speed on the road. . . . I lose detail at even moderate speed but gain comprehension. . . . I could write for hours on the lustfulness of moving swiftly.

    Probably the Mrs has said sell it so instead of saying no he's put it up at a rediculous price. I mean you could get a nice GT350H or a SS/RS for about a quarter of the price if you really wanted a quick unusual yank tank. 10 is possible but it'd need more mods.

    Imagine what he would want if it had a steering wheel worth more than 50 buks at repco...not really fitting for a classic?

    And for that money, I hope it does wheelies Mister!
