Re: Fastest street car on earth?
I think street car is a pretty arguable term. You can take just about any car and call it a "street car". I am guessing he doesn't drive it to the track and back, or to work in rush hour traffic

Motorcycle cop pulls up next to me on UNI and says "Want to race?"
Me- "I don't think you would stand a chance."
Cop says "probably not" and drives off.

Re: Fastest street car on earth?
nor does it have a full exhaust. It would be better if it was a DD.

Pump gas, street tires and a heater makes it daily driver capable in my book. This guy is no fool, he's built a lot of really fast Vettes and spares no expense. I guarantee that car is more drivable than a lot of the garbage you see on the freeway everyday. It's not that hard to make 2000 horsepower anymore with all the aftermarket blocks, a set of turbos and EFI. |

Re: Fastest street car on earth?
Pink, yellow and teal. I have no idea what it is with those colors but I hate everything they touch. How could you stop yourself from painting it a medium to dark blue pearl?

Taste is lost on many people.
Still a cool car regardless.

All his cars have had that kind of wild paint job. Very 1995.

Very nice car, a lot of hard work and $$. It is street legal, but the cops could give him a heap of tickets for various items, but I am sure he would have to drive like an asshat to get pulled over.
