If you get one, you would have to pave your driveway, and that would probably cost as much as the car.[Coffee]

It'd be cheaper to build a garage down by the highway.
Or, I'll just trailer it down to the highway. Now there's an idea. So don't let the dirt driveway stop you from buying this car for me. We can always figure out a way to get it on pavement.

Not bad for a plastic race car...

How often are you going to come across long perfectly straight roads?
Racing involves turns.

But, it doesn't matter. One of us needs to hit the powerball, so we can buy Bailey the Camaro, the Mustang for me, and the Beemer for you, and no matter who is the fastest, we will all have tons of fun.[Beer]

In a straight line or slight turn.

So...the regular GT was .09 slower per lap, better than I would have guessed.
Now look for the test with the 2012 Boss 302, or even the Laguna Seca edition.

Who gives a rat's ass about the track? You ain't gonna be driving it on the road like that.
And you can have someone else buy you the BMW. I'll take American V8 muscle any day.

It also handles in case you encounter a track on your daily commute. Another side note: Torque. Just, torque.

Pretty sure that'll eat Beemers for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
When I was at the dealership getting my oil changed a week or two ago, there were 3 or 4 of those Vettes on the floor. I was trying to figure out how to haul firewood in one cuz I seriously considered trading my Silverado.

Yep no love for the Chevys but I'd lose my Dl in that mustang.

The R8 GT is powered by a revised 5.2L V10 FSI engine that puts out 560 horsepower, 35 more than the R8 5.2 quattro. The V10 is mated to the R tronic sequential manual transmission. 0-62 mph is reached in 3.6 seconds and the R8 GT has a top speed of 199 mph. The R8 GT is also 180 pounds lighter than the R8 Coupe 5.2 quattro thanks to the use of more carbon fiber. The rear hatch, spoiler and diffuser are all made of carbon fiber.
Kansas is ~411 Miles from Side to side... you could cross it in just over 2 hours

But the tires are shredded in 15 minutes. Thankfully the fuel runs out in 12.

Except that the Camaro is a Holden (Australian) with a Voxhaull (English) motor in it built in Canada (Canukish).
On the other hand it'll probably handle the twisties as well as the Bimmer for half the cost (although I'd rather have the BMW ... used to work on them for a living and they're a better car than anything GM has put out in 4 decades).
Also if you're one of those "gotta be made in USA" types ... BMW builds some models (I believe all their Crossover models) in Spartanburg South Carolina.
I crave E46 BMWs...some of the finest looking cars in the past decade, IMO.

Honestly if I had the time/money/workshop space, I'd pick up an early (round taillight) 2002 and stuff in the drive train from an E30 M3. I'd be perfectly happy with that even though you could out run it with the Camaro.
