The 2012 GTR is doing 0-60 anywhere from 3.0 to an unofficial 2.7 seconds bone stock. Can't wait to see what AMS does with that...

The launch where it leaves 4 skidmarks gave me bumps on my special parts.

I'm ashamed to say that I live like 25 minutes from the AMS shop and I haven't ever been out there to look at their cars.

Ditto.

AMS are top-notch guys. They were invaluable when I was building the Droptop From Hell (they designed and built the whole fuel system).

My brother just sent me an article on the 2013 Shelby GT500 Mustang, which is supposed to lay down 620hp, and do 0-60 4.1sec. I sent him this video back in response and told him to try again :biggrin:

I would see a doctor for that.

A very stupid friend of a friend bought that exact same baby s*** green Soul JUST because of that commercial. In the first week he had it he rear ended somebody badly, and then like 2 weeks later after he got it back from repairs, he got T-boned in the rear quarterpanel area with moderate damage!! If that isnt a sign of what stupid mistake you made... He only got $1000 trade in for his Rodeo and payed top dollar for the Soul, with no haggling what so ever, just because he wanted it that bad. Pure fail.

You should definitely stop by- I got a full tour when I had my KA built. Plus they created their own A-Team video to go with their A-Team van. Awesome.

That's pretty sweet. I wonder if they modified the trans at all. It still would be nice if you could get it with a manual trans :)

... and Veyron killer isn't a very accurate term. They veyron pretty much beats it in every aspect, except price and availability... and maybe trunk room.

I'm glad this one pisses off Veyron owners, though. Any car that irks self-impressed Europeans pleases me.
