When I was setting up a rental for the Nurburgring, they had a specific note to make sure you didn’t accidently enter Nuremburg in the GPS for directions to the track. Apparently more than 1 customer made that mistake, and you end up 4 hours away..
Eh, it’s ‘character’. Everyone loves Ford’s Voodoo 5.2 FPC V8, but it vibrates so much it’s been snapping AC compressor bolts off in the block.
I crossed one off my bucket list and drove the ‘Ring last Monday. Rented a little prepped Suzuki Swift (136hp!) and it was intense. Forza 7 did not prepare me for what the elevation changes are actually like, nevermind the ring taxis that blow by with inches to spare.
Actually just drove down that exact street last week. Those ‘chicanes’ are generally placed at the entrance to a town and are meant to force you to slow down. Sometimes it’s a single, sometimes double.
Can’t speak on the convertible stuff but..
Were there spectators on the other side? Maybe the Mustang couldn’t resist it’s natural urges.
60-70mph range. Can get at or above the 30mpg mark if you really baby it. 5th and 6th are both OD gears in the TR6060, with 6th being .5
You’re forgetting the Z/28, had the LS7
That’s.. roughly the same MPG as my Camaro SS. 17-18 mpg in stop and go traffic. Around 20 with some more highway mixed in, and 27-28 if it’s all highway. It’s a manual so no cylinder deactivation.
Seriously, the base model outgoing corvette has more performance than the main line of ferraris and lambos and porsches of 1999 and the Mustang and Camaro also come close - that’s just the tip of the iceberg too.
Biggest plus of an electric motorcycle for commuting - no sitting on top of a hot lump of an engine with a fan blowing 200* air right in your crotch when stuck in traffic.
More stories please
I tried checking Rock Auto but they didn’t have pricing for some reason..
I’d say the C7 GS / Z06, GT350/R, GT500, ZL1 / 1LE..
Yeah, even in my relatively ‘old’ 2010 Xterra it’ll turn off cruise control if wheel slip is detected.
Are they that special? In 2009 I paid $6000 for a 2005 Kawi Z1000 in mint condition with just over 4,000 miles. So, 20 years newer and with fuel injection and modern (although not necessarily great) suspension.
Camaro is *slightly* smaller than the Mustang (longer wheelbase though) and around 50-100lbs lighter depending on spec.
