Another alternative would be picking up like a 5.0 mustang with a supercharger. Or a mustang + a turbo s2000.
Not exactly, just in that range. What about if you bump the range up to $100k (which is hopefully what my next car purchase will be) with the possibility of a beater DD car. My personal choices are new GT-R or used Lambo/Ferrar/R8. What do you think?

Also, having guys like Jnaut driving is an "ideal condition". Put him behind the wheel of the M3, and it will likely lay a better time.
Is better times in FL due to elevation, weather conditions, or something else?

I honestly wouldn't buy any of those cars. Let's discuss further in the conference room, as to minimize thread derailment.


Better times mostly due to elevation.

Lame i was expecting an F&F quote from you guys lol Does it really matter if we can or can't beat a bimmer or a merc? this isn't a **** swinging competition, and everybody knows it's only damn 5.0's anyone really cares about
