Is there anything faster?

Than american muscle???

I love the look on peoples faces when the realize my loud, obnoxious, big-winged car is in fact a dodge. Makes my day.

I just wanted to also say that this site is picking back up, hopefully it stays that way.

Personally I think srt-4's sound good. Maybe you are just used to the detroit iron, the original ford rustang sound. Let me guess your exhaust mods: hmmmm.....headers, off road x-pipe, and bassani cat-back lol..awesome. Cobra's are sick, dont get me wrong, but the ones that are sick came out in 03.

Yeah guys I can't argue that American cars are anywhere near as nice as anything not made in America but nothing beats the sound of a Cobra or any other 5.0, 5.7 V8.

Yes, there is. It's called a Skyline.

The most disturbing Skyline I've ever heard of is over 1200 bhp and did over 200 mph through Tokyo.

Amazing, when you consider that it's still a street car.

start looking on some other forums....Up in the Ne we have a bad street racing scene. Go south to GA, FLA, or Texas and a 9 second car is slow.

PS I'm by no means a domestic lover.....I've owned all types and will continue to own all types of cars. I think I might dump my current car for a turbo Exige. I find it funny how dumb brand loyalist sound.
My car will put down 850 on race gas and it is by no means the fastest street car in my area. My buddy just sold his 720+ RWHP Whipple cobra that he drove on the street 6 months ago. 1,000 hp doesn't mean shjit if you can't hook....so I'll switch this up to their are a ton of 9 second cars on the street. open your eyen and look past a 240 buddy.

1. I'm not in the NE, I'm in the NW.
2. I don't street race.

Again, I'm unclear on why I should give a rats ass about cars that I don't like.

My car is getting bumped to 500 WHP in the next month. Then once I get the bottom end rebuilt, I'll be going for about 600 whp. I'll probably be stopping there because I don't feel like dropping more money on even bigger injectors which will take away from the streetable factor and a couple grand on an even more elaborate standalone ECU. Not to mention that 600 whp will still be plenty of fun with a sub 3000 lb car, and I'll still be able to pass AirCare.

Is there anything better then american muscle... sure it is called german and italian super cars. A 18.2 liter v8 making 400 doesn't impress me but a 5.0 v10 making 507 does.

It was an exaggeration...the new viper is 8.3L V10 510hp, new vette 7.0L V8 505hp, whereas a 5.7L V10 porsche carrera GT puts down 605hp, 4.3L V8 ferrari puts down 490hp, etc. Much smaller displacement with as much or more power.
