Nice cars and all...

But for that porshe with these stats:
0-60 in 2.9 seconds
1/4 Mile in 10 sec. at 135 MPH

I'm not too impressed..
with the quarter mile time atleast..

I know a guy who's got a 1g Ford probe thats been converted to RWD and uses a 2jz supra engine.. THe other day on just a turbo he ran a 9.4 quarter mile at 145mph..

Still I'd love to own a probe though.

I LOOOOVE love.gif Porsche


btw, I'm so confused as to how to pronounce Porsche: is it "Porsha" or "Porsh"?  I've heard guys on car shows repeatedly claim "porsha" is correct, then hear someone else say "porsh" in the same episode.  What do you guys think?

I say POUR-Shuh. But my friends always yell at me saying I'm not allowed to say that because I don't own them. Fuck them. That's the right way.

Arjun is right.  That is the correct way to say it.  My stepdad has a 1974 or 77, cant remember, Porsche 911 Carrera so im sure he has been saying it the correct way.
