My C63 is, in my opinion, the BEST four-door sports sedan, daily driver, sleeper beast available (within my budget).

My GT500 is, in my opinion, the BEST example of raw American horsepower and torque, not a great daily driver but the most fun and best sounding car available (within my budget).

The GT500 is faster and better handling than the C63, but that's only because it is MUCH MUCH easier and MUCH cheaper to mod.
You sir, are a 911 turbo variant away from my dream garage.

Thanks. I was thinking of a GT3, but my wife would kill me. Toying with maybe a Ducati Monster to round it out.

I think the GT3 would be better. Tell your wife Nachtsturm says it's okay.

The Caddy walks on him pretty good. I wonder what HP he is pushing.. Has to be over 600.
