I don't dig the idea of a Ford "supercar," and I live in Dearborn, MI, the home of Ford's world headquarters!

The Porsche Carrera GT is my favorite supercar:

Yea the new stangs own my stick. On another note here is an article on the new Lightning (my baby :p )

http://www.pickuptruck.com/html/autoshows/naias2003/ford/lightning1.html

It's from last year but there are pics.

Immediately following the introduction of the all new 2004 Ford F-150, SVT unveiled its Lightning concept, based on the all new truck, in a thunderous display of pyrotechnics. It�s aggressively sculpted body is clad in a liquid silver metallic skin that hunches over 22-inch wheels and wraps itself around a 500-hp/500lb-ft supercharged 5.4-liter V8.

Where in Dearborn do you live Squick?

Right near city hall. That is also about three miles east of the Ford World Headquarters. (the "Glass House") Also about five miles west of Detroit.

I'm waiting for some one to photoshop that truck into the PS Lightning....



Eh those cars are nice.....but where-wait no-when will you use all their horsepower? (when the cops aren't around is not an answer, same with when the cops are trying to catch up). Get one of those cars when your in Germany or something.



For me, big truck+lota mud=:drool:



Bleh i gota get off this mountain.

I live near Dearborn High.

Thats amazing... I have met 20+ people that live in Dearborn while being online having nothing to do with Dearborn or Michigan! Our city is not huge either, we have what, 200,000 people?

Very cool.

The new one yes, it will probaby still run around 30-35k - they pride it on being somewhat affordable

first off you have no idea what your talking about, secondly even if you are unitentionally bashing Hamma's hot pimped out Ford F-150 he will sick his sidekick monkey on you (Squeeky) anway.

Well duh, if you go out on a limb and buy an Allison turboprop engine for your Civic then you'll go fast...

nah, all you need are some JATO rockets, you knwo what i mean if you saw that mythbusters

AztecWarrior
2004-01-12, 11:18 PM
Yabbut the Allison actually exists. You could substitute with a Double Wasp, a Merlin, or other WW2-era but updated engine. They sell them to air racers.

Rbstr
2004-01-12, 11:32 PM
so to JATO(or RATO) rockets. Jet(rosket) assisted takeoff something or others. they use them on things liek the c-130 when they have a short runway

What I don't get is people buy a Civic for, what, $25,000? Then will dump $100,000 into crap to make their car fast...

Buy a damn Lingenfelter Corvette... $58,000 for 0-60 in 3.7s, 1/4th mile in 11.7s, 500hp, 480lb-ft of torque, 3300lbs. And it almost looks stock... So when some preppy guy comes out of the golf club in his Porche 911 (which would easily beat a stock vette) you can wooop him down :D

And here is a road test on the Ford GT:
http://www.caranddriver.com/article.asp?section_id=15&article_id=7565&page_number=4

It does a lot better then what I would have thought... Amazingly it's 0-60 time beats my beloved Lamborghini Murcielago, for $100k less.

Enzo Ferrari however, at almost $700,000 does 0-60 in 3.3, and a 1/4th mile in 11.2

But my favorite supercar is the Saleen S7, (the car Jim Carry has in Bruce AllMighty)
$400k, 0-60 in 3.3s; 1/4th mile in 11.6, and it looks absolutely incredible
