    STupidest thing i've ever heard. Any guy in his right mind goes out in a new car and sees how fast it can go. My brother did this, all of his friends, my friends, and I did it in his truck ('95 ram 1500 /gg) One tip, you'll find quick that you like to fishtail out of corners. My friend did this, did it UNproperly, and almost ended up dead in a ditch (I watched it all happen).
    1. Take the turn, and as u start turning, accelerate (alot).
    2. Once you level out, LET GO OF THE ----ING GAS. She accelerated too much, so the car went to the left more than it should have. So she tryed to correct it by going to the right. (I might mention that the whole time she has the pedal on the ground) Then she ran through a fence, and the car was 2 feet from going in to a huge ditch.


    Lesson learned, after turn LET GO OF GUCKING GAS.

    I just thought id let you know that. :P

    Well..What else would u recomend for under 100k? I think a lotus look pretty good, and its nice and fast, but not to fast.

    I would love a saleen s7...But i cany spend 250k lol. But if u guys know sumthing better for under 100k, tell me and ill look into it. I want a nice, fast exotic/sports car :)

    Get a Porsche Carrera. You can never go wrong with German engineering.

    [I still doubt you'll get a $100k car. Uncles always talk big. Mine said he would get me a helicopter once I got my flying license. Still waiting on that ;)]

    may i make a suggestion? if ur going for under 100k go with a very luxerious cadillac, there really a fine machine man. very comfortable seats, stunning look, just the kinda car u relax in, and yet stilla powerful speed kick when u need it
