Matt Farah don't judge Mansory on this poor modification for SLR.

You should google ( Mansory Renovatio ).

and see what they can do with SLR.

They took SLR to the next level!!

+1 on the power upgrades, but the Renovatio is almost as ugly as the travesty at the auto show. I've seen their Vanquish, Bentley GT, and Astons, and while the build quality is excellent, they really do ruin the classy looks of all those cars.

Gotta call you out on the GE jet engine and its "horse power rating". In order to rate this using horse power the engine has to turn a shaft from which it can be measured. This would make it a turbo shaft motor. This is a GE J79 turbo jet egine and is rated at 17,000 ft lb of THRUST.

[Garage419]

got it, though you'd actually be calling out Jim Nielsen, who gave me that figure. He said he came up with the horsepower figure based on the weight and acceleration of the car, kind of like a GTech accelerometer would measure horsepower.

he laughs like a girl... a little girl...

Agreed, I just hate tuned Supercars, especially bodykits!!

Glue-on heat extractor vents on the Buick! Must be the "Fast And The Furious" mentality! Buick EPIC FAIL!!!!

Love this "online version" of Automotive reviews. Audi TT in "Cocaine White" 3:28 LOL!!! 4:18 Build That!!! And that's why GM is playing catch-up. Question is; will they ever catch up? Hope to see G419 at this years NYIAS.

OMG That Buick was horrid!! I've been sayin for years GM should drop Buick and keep Saturn! They sale! Now GM will not have cool cars like the Saturn Sky, Potiac Solstice, G6 GXP, G8 GXP, and they will give us great cars like the Volt, Buick lacern,and Aveo!! Rock on GM only cool cars left are the Cobalt SS , Corette, and Camero 3 cars!!! Thats it!!

The 370 is so fun to drive! You actually feel like your a racecar driver and you want to take on the track or twisties asap! I drove my buddies new 370 Z I was amazed by it! I was gonna get a Roush Stage 3 but i'm leaning towards the Z maybe the Nismo package since i'm looking to spend around 40 grand. Myy boy is gonna turbo the car and I'd turbo the Nismo if I get it. Test drive that car you will see what I'm talking about. Manual gear box can't be beaten for fun!

I don't understand the complaint of American car interiors. I have not been able to 1) complain about them, they are fine and 2) complain when comparing to Toyotas, Hondas, VWs, etc. They are all the same.

Now whe comparing a Z06 and F430 yes the F430 interior is better, but 3x the price. And I already think the Z06 has a good looking interior and it is very comfortable.

man you stuck it to buick. they put no effort into there designs

[vteclobe]

-to 419,

stop comparing the 350/370 z to evo's and sti's. thats apples vs. oranges.

- to rm125,

the CTS-V is not the worlds fastes production sedan. that honor goes to the lotus carlton. which is still GM because its a vauxhall. plus, at the time when the car was designed and built GM had a controlling stake in lotus.

[rm125]

GM doesn't make good cars?

Why didn't you show the CTS-V = worlds fastest production sedan,

The Cobalt SS turbo - fastest production FWD car around the nurinburg.

The Corvette Zr1- Faster than the Ferrrari 430, Porsche gt3, Mercedes AMG Sl65,

The new Camaro SS

The Chevrolet Volt.

Learn some about the automotive market you biased moron. You need a schooling.

The women at Chrysler looked like she was sooo excited to talk about their cars until he said something about the EV van...Priceless! LMFAO

[cwmoo]

Google "chrome SLR". It's from the middle east, some oil dude. That is definitely the most hideous SLR ever, not this one.
