A economically friendly car that doesnt look like shit!

the batteries are very environmentally damaging, because the nickle has to be mined, then it travels around the world going to different factories to get developed into a battery, then it gets put in the car where it weighs the car down make it need more energy to move. (so it dosent get 65 mpg it actully gets 45, whice you get in a corolla, and you can get over 50 mpg a jetta tdi or golf tdi) so there you go buy a deisle if you want to save the planet
 
not where i live hydro is where its at, nut your right we should do something about burning that coal.
 
What about this?

THE CCXR - THE FIRST GREEN SUPERCAR

The CCXR will take you to an entirely new level of performance. It is a

derivative of the CCX, with a highly modified engine that can run on

E85 and E100 Biofuel as well as normal 98 octane petrol (Europe). When

run on regular petrol, the 4.7 litre twin-supercharged Koenigsegg

engine delivers 806 Bhp, but this figure rises to an astonishing 1018

Bhp when the car is run on E85 Biofuel.

The CCXR is the first green supercar in the world and thereby sets a

great example for others to follow. Since the ethanol in E85 fuel has a

much higher octane rating and internal cooling capacity, the engine can

run with higher compression, boost pressure and more spark advance

compared to the normal petrol-fuelled CCX, whilst still maintaining the

same exhaust temperature.

Some days I get really worked up about how misinformed (or just fucking stupid) people are.

Then I think about how people like him make people like me look really smart. I calm down after that.
 
well all American cars are shit all of them, i cant think of exception that is beaten in almost ever way by its European or Japanese counterpart.
 
um no, 430 scudariea is much better handling and much faster around a track (with left and right! corners) aston martin dbs is better looking and faster, ascari a10 is much much much faster, mercedes slr is more comfortable and faster, so theres a bunch of euro super cars that are better

im glad to see the sti is on there, on the list

and i dont really like the first car that was posted
 
intresting, the chevy is still a chevy tho {whice is plasticy and cheap) and a Ferrari is a Ferrari, and i have a suspicion that if the ascari a10 went round and did an oficial time it would top it and so would the gumpert apolo.
 
I understand what you mean. But at this point, I wouldn't say this or this is a better car than that or that.

Actually, it depends on what you looking for.

If you want a nicely finished smooth car, buy an english. If you want a sporty classy with a fast engine but not that reliable, buy italian. If you want excellence in seriousness buy german.

But if you want raw power, and aggressive design, well, buy US.

Honestly, I felt in love with the 5th gen Camar concept. In feb the car will be out at 422hp which is too low for me. But as soon as there's a Z28 supercharged at 550hp, i'll get it and enjoyyyyyyyyyyy.

This is about feeling. For example, a lanmborghini is faster than a subaru, but i'm pretty sure you'll have more fun in a sub'.

It all depends, it's not the same spirit.

But there's an all time truth: hybrid and electric cars suck
