[350km/h_no_problem]

i love alizee
but secondary i like cars
what about u guys

[Mordecai]

I love MC (Choppers), and like Cars :).

Dodge Viper have a special place in myheart tough.

[PayBays]

I like Volvo's a lot...they have lights who automaticly go on!

[AlizéeInMYHeart]

alot of cars have that I guess...at least the Totoya Camry we have does it :wink:

[350km/h_no_problem]

my favourite car is the ferrari enzo
but a tuning will go well
mount a turbo on the 660hp engine and get about 300hp
that would be nice and some 20`s folowed by a big lemans type spoiler
but this will go secondary after alizee.....u`re so perfect...........

[Ludicrous Maximus]

I'm not a big fan of supercars like the Ferrari Enzo. I prefer normal but lovely cars. Talking of French cars, the 406 Sedan was great. The Alfa 147 is also gorgeous.

[atti]

[350km/h_no_problem]

[350km/h_no_problem]

0-100km/h:4.2sec

[Ned]

Even so, 907 is yet a concept car unlike the M5 which is a series one! And btw, do you know about M5 killer, from Mercedes?

[350km/h_no_problem]

yeah it is the E55AMG
478HP
5.5-5.7SEC 0-100KM/H
NICE PIECE OF MACHINERY
I PREFER THE M5 THOUGH

I don't like german cars, they eat a lot of fuel, and they are driven by snobbish people! :yuk:
All the cars I like are first of all french, and sweedish. I consider them the best, yet.

[350km/h_no_problem]

do u like french cars because they come from alizee`s birthplace?
sincerly i like few french cars
btw did u knew that bugaty is a french car manufacturer
they made that veyron:1001hp,406km/h,3.2sec 0-100km/h

My friend, like I said it before, I'm a francophille, I like everything that is french, my fave film is 'Les fabuleaux destin d'Amelie Poulain', my fave book is Victor Hugo's 'Les Misserables' and my favourite french actor is Charles Aznavour, and ofc my fave singer is Alizee! :wink: [edited]
As it for the Buggatti, I didn't know it has a french manufacturer.

[Mordecai]

it can`t mach with a BMW M5 (new series) - 507hp/8200rpm

a 740 have around 80-100hp from the factory...

[D13U]

Kind of OT, but I must say Les Miserables was an amazing book, even if I had to read it with my French-English dictionary next to me. (I speak French, mais pas plus bon)

[tern]

Very very OT.

Anyway I prefer German cars, and BMWs at that. Owning one some day would be the greatest souvenir I could have from all of Europe. :mrgreen:

Edit: Now I got the exact hp on the Volvo, 533.4hp :)

[350km/h_no_problem]

Mordecai i don`t think that volvo has it`s 533hp from the factory
we were talking about factory cars , not modified ones
plus if u modifie that bmw M5(which i`m sure they did)u can get 900-1000hp...

[Steve]

Go Opel is all I have to say!

You can have any car to get 900-1000 HP's, as long as you have a good tunning company, like Schnitzer, Brabus or C & C.

[Sert]

Go Opel is all I have to say!

As long as you don't have to drive one :mrgreen:

I hate my Vectra, but the new ones are kinda nice.

But nothing beats old american muscle cars 8) (except the fuel prices... 1.30€ per litre in Germany... they've gone crazy)

Only stock cars? Then I'm out of here!

[350km/h_no_problem]

u compare stock cars with stock and modified cars with modified

[DavidAlizée]

I would post my car but i don't want to spoil this thread.

[Ned]

Why didn't you mention from the first time that this topic was about stock cars only, modified cars not included in the discussion? :?

There you go! You really didn't understand what I just said earlier.

[Darius]

I think the best cars are made in Europe, particularly Germany. Some sports cars from Usa and Japan are also good. :cheesy:

[DavidAlizée]

The only cars to buy are German cars imo.. They never break down and i have never had any problems with mine. Not a single problem...

[atti]

the trabant, best german car ever

I COMPARE! Man, read before you talk. I mentioned a Volvo with 500+ hp and someone said that a BMW was much better and I'M THE ONE COMPARING?! Give up man!

[DavidAlizée]

! Man, read before you talk.




i second that

[Ron V.]

They've done it. Hope this sucker is around for my midlife crisis.

It doesn't matter, nothing will ever beat the M3 and M5 as far as sports sedans go. The suspension and traction controls are second to none, and with the click of a button, you can raise or lower your suspension 3 settings. Not only that but they have a ridiculous brake horsepower. These are the most widely used cars among racing schools.

And Mercedes cars are plastic junkers with huge engines. Be ready to break down after 50k miles in one of those, driving hard.

As for the Skycar:

The vertical demonstration represented a milestone, to be sure, but the thing is far from success.

In 1991, when he introduced a mock up of the vehicle, the Moller M400 Skycar, Moller declared that it would fly within a year or so. Although the Skycar has finally gotten off the ground, it hasn't lived up to its promised capabilities, such as the ability to carry four people safel and efficiently at speeds of up to 375 mps. Nor has another of Moller's claims come true: that 10,000 Skycars would be buzzing the airways by the end of 2002.

The design stems from a vertical take-off aircraft built during the 1950's and 1960's. Ducted fans produced more thrust than free propellers of the same size.

"Ducted fans normally don't work very well," Hollmann explains. "The Problem is that you need a lot of horsepower. If you double the diameter of the rotor, it's like doubling the horsepower. That's why helicopters have long rotors."

Another drawback of ducted-fan aircraft is that if they lose power, they can't autorotate like helicopters--which rely on the fact that a free-spinning, though unpowered, rotor still produces lift and stability. Instead, ducted fans fall like bricks. The two Ryan XV-FA's that were built both crashed, killing their pilots.

Forcast: Stormy
Buyer beware. In 2003 the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission filed suit against Moller International in federal court for selling unregistered securities. The suit alleged that while Moller, who has been designing and building vertical-lift vehicles since the early 1960's, had touted the Skycars promise to investors, "in reality, the Skycar was and still is a very early developmental-stage prototype that has no meaningful flight testing, proof of aeronautical feasibility, or proven commercial viabilitiy." The SEC also alleged that Moller misled investors about the firm's financial prospects. Moller paid $50,000 to settle the suit.

This thing still has a long way to go...and hasn't made too much progress either...

[PayBays]

Give me a quad!That's much nicer then a car :roll:

[DavidAlizée]

M5 is so over rated. As for the M3, my dad has one, yeah it is a fantastic car, but it is nothing compared to my car. My dad doesnt drive his car hard, although.. when i am in it, i do.. and i can't feel the acceleration compared to mine.

When my friend drove it, he thought it was just unreal.. regards to the accel, but.. you have to drive one alot, to really understand , its not that great compared to the other german company. Btw, i'm talking about a 2001 m3, not the new one.

[ArlettyFan]

The BMW sedans are not in the same classification as a porsche coupe of course... someone come up with a better 5 seater, I dare ye!

[Prometheus]

Well there is the Opel Lotus Omega which was the fastest five-door car on the market for many years in the early ninetees. Still looks good, like a wolf in sheeps clothing. I would take one in a heartbeat if I had the money. 8)

Yeah, I noticed that. Even their own test videos they showed on the site didn't look that impressive. Still fun to think of though, and the thing certainly looked stylish. http://www.moller.com/skycar/m400/m400.jpgJust hope when they do get them working I'll be able to afford one.


On the ground side of things I've always wanted something like these:

BMW stands for Break My Wallet :cheesy:

The Volvo S40 sedan/V50 wagon was the runner up car in the World Car of the Year Adwards, surpassed by the Audi A6.
So you cant go wrong with either an Audi or Volvo!!
