I think the entire CL board is... but I keep hope alive...

Month 25 of working financing for our project(s), prospects are up again and most promising... after all this time, fingers (what's left of 'em) crossed so hard I can't feel 'em... after 50+ delays (yes, correct), if it doesn't happen this time...

Nissan GT-R is no longer the best bang for your money.

Actually, the Ford is a nice car, but the '12 GTR now has 530hp, and would be at the top of that list.

Wow, and Ford's not asking much for these limited Boss 302s.

I agree, the first thing I would have to do is stop by a paint booth on the way home, and tone the thing down a bit.

Did you see how little difference the bigger engine made in the R8? It may make it around a little faster, but by no means would it make any significant difference.
