Actually the Aero TT is fully capable of that... in fact they are shooting for the 300mph mark next.

What interior job? My Civic? Or the Corvette?
The only thing that I've modified in my interior is the stereo... although I did fabricate new upholstered grilles that look more upscale. :cool:

Japanese car interiors have traditionally walked all over American cars in general since just about the dawn of time... :p
And it seems the gap just widens and widens, that's the shocking part!

I haven't been in an American car where I couldn't rap my knuckles on the hard plastic dashboard, or use the hard plastic faux-texture door panel to exfoliate my dry skin off my arm... :p

On the other hand, even my 11 year old Honda came with rather nice vinyl and cloth upholstered door panels, a vinyl wrapped dashboard...

...and if you haven't been in a new Toyota lately... just sit in anything.
Then go sit in a similarly priced Ford anything. Or Chevy anything. :rolleyes:

The sickest thing is with Ford... they have started doing some nice looking designs - photograph well - then when you see them in person, it's like Playskool.

And don't get me started on Cadillac... that's supposed to be a luxury car there. So why does a Camry have a richer interior? :rolleyes:

and you don't even need an exhaust system - that engine is giong to crank out so much that the exhaust is going to widen by itself because of the heat and amount of air goign out!

dudes, just buy a frickin 87 honda civic coupe and swap in a f16a motor with NAWWWWSZZZSSSZZZZ DAWG and a turbo and put a racing seat in, you'll be good to go lilke tacobell.

koenisegg(wtf?) ccr beat the mclaren record a while back. I would take the Ford GT over all of them, just because its so damn awesome!!! Those other two are $100000000 cars f'in awesome to, but I doubt they are as streetable as the GT. I don't know about y'all, but If I'm paying that much for a car, I am going to drive that sumbitch!

my dads buddy just got done completely restoring a 1953 (or somewhere really close) corvette, and man, the interrior is anything but trashy!! i've never seen a more sexy car

270mph is only what the Aero TT is geared for. You will NEVER hit that in that car.

Veyron can only, and very narrowly, beat a McLaren in a straight line. McLaren still owns it overall.

Sure, it's a nice looking car. If I want to look at one, I'll look at someone else's. I'm not looking for envy points from people - and sure as hell aren't looking for resentment.
But for $100K, I'd hope people looked at it and saw something different than just "a Corvette". :help:
And when people look at it, they expect it to be fast. Being fast isn't going to raise anyone's eyebrows.
My Civic isn't half as fast as that Corvette, but it's a lot more fun surprising people with my supercharger underhood in a car no one expects to be that quick.
And it's downright sad that my 11 year old Civic has a higher-grade interior quality than the Playskool interior they put in those Corvettes (although that's not nearly the shame that the interior in Cadillac SLR's is :rolleyes: ). Hell, it's ironic that the interior in the HHR is classier than the 'Vette. :p
I don't know, I just don't see the appeal. For $100K, I want something exotic that people haven't seen before, that gets people excited, that surprises people - even if I have to make it myself by modifying something else.
Think about what you could modify into something beyond "exceptional" with a budget of $100K for car and modifications! :happy055:
