Just registered so I can explain some things that are wrong with this thread.
1. Fast Old guy started a bunch of crap a few months ago on our board. He immediately started claiming how a stock GT500 is faster than a stock M6. Fine, it very well may be in the 1/4 mile or even further. I doubt beyond 1/4 mile it is faster, but that is always up for discussion.
2. We know our cars are not the fastest cars out there. We didn't buy M5's M6's because its the fastest car on the planet. It is an exclusive car that is fun to drive in the curves, fun to drive at high speeds and luxurious. There are also not that many driving around and we find a sense of enjoyment for driving it every day.
3. A 700hp+ GT500 will walk all over any M5/M6 that is not heavily modified...we know that. The whole thing was based off the only reason he came to the board is to talk shit and never provide video's or do any type of race...AT ALL. Just all talk same as this thread he started. All talk no proof.
4. StreetKing a member on our forum has multiple exotic cars and willing to race FastOld guy and even called him out on the forum to do it, but like usual he is all talk. StreetKing has a Supra that ran the 1 mile at 241.8 mph...link [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PUyf3g5AkI0&fmt=18"]YouTube- SW's Boost Logic supra 241.8mph Tx Mile[/ame]
He also has many different exotics and willing to race him with any of them.
5. Msizzle is by far NOT the fastest M6 on the East coast. That has to be a joke. He has simple bolt on mods that anyone can do. There is a twin turbo G-power M6 in Orlando putting down over 750 WHP (NBA player actually). Yes, it cost a lot more than the Cobra, but its not about the money like said above.
6. If we wanted to buy a GT500 we could...obviously. I have a ZR1 as well as my M6 and the ZR1 kills it in most every aspect. Yes, I still love the M6 but it is more "exclusive" and exotic when I drive it than the ZR1. Honestly no one even can tell the difference in my ZR1 and a regular corvette when I drive the streets except for car fanatics.
7. Fast old guy comes on to the forum telling us how much money he makes and probably more than us. Honestly I don't care, we don't care. No one needs to get defensive on how much they make. Someone always makes more than you...same with cars, someone is always faster. That just proves my point further however. If he makes more money than all of us and "more than what we pay in taxes" LOL LOL LOL then it is more about personal decisions and driving an M6 over a mustang, or a mustang over an M6 makes sense. More about the experience and preference than speed!
I think the best way to settle this is have Fastold guy run StreetKing with the car of Fastold guys choice and video. Many have requested to race, but Fast old guy will not respond to PM's or posts. Settle this with proof instead of trying to start more crap and more talk.....gets old.
I am a car enthusiast and appreciate the GT500...might even buy one to have in my stable. I am not here to bash you guys just clear some things up. I would love to not have disagreements about who is faster who is slower etc. Seems childish to me, just run and be done...maybe sometime we can all get together for some beer and have a good time :beer:
