Vinyl is for your 16 year old daughter's Sunfire so she can have a ROXY logo on the back windscreen. Not for a 1400 horsepower machine.

I guess I just don't care for race only cars. What's the fun if you can't drive it on the street. I'm not saying it might not be street legal but look at the dyno, it has less than 250hp at 4,000 RPM.

If they're sponsers then they do belong on there. You've ever been a race where every single car wasn't full of them?

any serious sponsor typically doesn't make you put a 4 foot sticker on your car (unless it's say a pro race car) usually you get a 4 inch sticker for the window

Chad has a good point- a dyno queen doesn't impress me as much as a car that has a torque curve that you eat dinner at- (meaning flat for those of you who don't get it)

Its a nice clean look, except for the huge graphic down the side. The wing doesn't bother me that much. If I had the money to buy that I would much rather buy a Z06 and drop it off at Lingenfelter for 427 twin turbo set-up. I bet that would give that Supra a run for the money..

Only if it was a new z06.. but still I think that supra would take it... Theyre not putting out more than 1100 I dont think... Since I last checked. I guess now that I think about it I dont know if Ive seen numbers for the new Z06s.

But I still would rather rock a new z06 from LPE.. even though thats probably roughly 130-140k.. But its still my dream car.
