    ahh yes, top speed was(is) incredible. I thought you were talking about the acceleration. I can't recall where I saw/read it but I believe some publication said that if the mclaren f1 passed the veyron at the start line at 120mph and the Veyron took off at that exact point that the Veyron would beat the f1 to 200mph.

    I don't get it? Are you saying the f1 is as fast as a Veyron??

    You honestly would want to drive that beater?

    If I'm not mistaken, I believe the dubble bubble on the roof harks back to the old days where street cars used for racing would have this done to their roofs so that your helmet would fit. Eventually it was factory on a lot of high performance factory cars and now toyobaru are doing this, I'm sure for looks and that

    Don't do that.

    I've has a 2003 540i for 2 years now. I've probably spent less than 750$ on it and a lot of that was cosmetic and oil changes. Great car!

    Fast, but not 5 seconds a lap faster than the aventador as stated in the comments below.

    Really? Show me the cheap 355s

    Ok, I've read TONS on the IMS issue, and until these fixes have been in cars for a few years than we cannot say there is a legitimate fix. Saying there is a legitimate fix is taking their word for it.

    IMS issues, the weak engine, and a putrid color that I had no idea existed.

    I guess money doesn't buy skill.

    Cool.

    Exactly my point, so it is possible that it was a 4 cylinder and not 5 cylinder, although most of us know that Audi pretty much put a 5 cylinder 20v in most cars in the 80's. I'm just saying his comment whether its a 4 cylinder or 5 cylinder is not a dumb question.

    Go lift something that weighs 400lbs, you make it seem like it's a box of paper clips.

    Well in his defense it could have been a 20v 4 cylinder... Didn't mercedes have 3 valve v8's?

    Future classics for sure. I've always loved them, I just wished they would have come with the third pedal or I wouldn't have bought my 540i.

    Well if you burn out for 2 seconds and aren't moving, then I don't care how fast you are 0-60. This looks a little staged to me, put a decent driver behind the M4(i'd like to say m3) and I guarantee the results would be different.

    This is robbery, such an awesome looking car.

    Car and driver -

    Seriously, this is all news to me. These cars were mid 12's. 11's, let alone 10's is another whole level.
