what does it make? that is what they said on speed when they test drove it. Maybe they f-ed up because i remeber thinking those numbers were off but whatever. My fault for quoting.
You're probably thinking of the Ferrari Superamerica, which weighs quite a bit, but makes over 500 horsepower. Do you really think the Enzo would be compared to the McLaren F1 if it had only 400 horsepower? IT'S ****ING CARBON-FIBER. For Christ's sake, the engine is a stressed member of the ****in' chassis, and you're going to compare it to a Corvette with a ****ING LEAF SPRING SUSPENSION?
By the way, I thought the Corvette still employed a few fiberglass parts.
yeah that was a definite, wrong answer sorry about that. Just looked it up, 650 bhp at 7800 rpm and 485 lb.-ft. of torque at 5500 rpm, i really gotta start checking numbers and not quote magazines.
Yea, I'm chill. I was just surprised that someone could mess that up. I do think the Z06 will be quite fast though. It will definitely give the Viper a run for its money.
The Vette suspension has evolved into a fairly sophisticated system. Some people dog on it because it retains a mono leaf spring, but it's really not justified. I only hope the Enzo motor is making more than minimum wage for working double duty.
As for a simple definition of "muscle car", it's fair to say that any car that is all motor could be one, everyone agree? Motor is muscle after all.

I know the Vette suspension is quite good, but it's still a leaf spring suspensions. The Mustang might have a more advanced suspension, but it still doesn't have an independent suspension. The Cobra had an independent suspension, and people literally complained.
"Suspension, four-wheel independent: includes transverse fiberglass leaf springs"- gm...........please explain to me how in the.....Why does it still retain the leaf springs if it is independent?
Oh leaf springs aren't so bad think of the early corvair
is this a joke?
