Just 10 Nissan Stanzas with hub extensions so the 12" wheels stick all the way out of the wheel wells, and slammed to the ground with ground effects and neon lights underneath, and a sweet brushed aluminum spoiler on the back! What else could you ever possibly need?

The Ultima would be easy. It's a chevy small block (550hp is recommended) bolted to a porsche getrag 6 speed. The formula mazda is just a rx-8's Renesis in a much smaller & lighter, open-wheel body. That SUV is *amazing*... I gotta dig up the Top Gear on it. I wouldn't even want to attempt to work on the CLK-GTR or 911 GT1... makes me wonder what it's like to void the warranty on million dollar cars...
The cheapy shifter kart is the easiest to work on, and the best performing of that entire group with blistering hole shots and crazy lateral g... and it's nothing but a little 125cc 2-stroke, sequential 6-speed, fixed axle, no suspension, and single brake caliper (on the axle). I can load it up into a pickup by myself, and I'm a wuss. Man those things rock :)

Road and track magazine just tested Pete Brock's personal SuperPeformance Daytona Coupe.... Highest skidpad numbers they ever recorded. Fastest Slalom run ever recorded by R&T. Out-performs the Enzo in several categories. Out-performs the Ford GT in all categories. Both the Z06 and Viper SRT10 Coupe pale in comparison. Powered by an aluminum 427 ci, 566 hp engine. A/C is standard... CD player optional. You can order the exact same Daytona Coupe for well under 90 grand, delivered with 2 year power train warranty.
Frankly, that's all I'd want in my garage....

Well, in 1963, GM decided to get out of racing for public consumption. So production of the Gran Sport ceased at 5. Zora Duntov decided he'd make a race type Corvette available as an RPO. It was the 1st Z06 built. They had special brakes, the top of the line fuel injected 327, close ratio 4 speed, positraction rearend, a 36 gallon fuel tank, heavy duty cooling, and a few other options.

Hey, they are MY choices, they are what I like. I didn't tell you what to put in YOUR garage. Many of those are VERY rare. Two of the 69 ZL-1 Corvettes built, 69 of the ZL-1 Camaros built, less than 100 each of the 69 Chevelles, 63 Z11 Impalas, and the 67 Corvette, not to mention only 5 of the 63 Gran Sport Corvettes. I had a 69 Z-28, and an L-78 66 Nova, I loved them both. I had a 64 409-425, and loved it. My mom had a 69 Impala 396-375, I loved it too, I always wanted a 427 L-72. I used to drive a 69 L-72 Chevelle in A/S and B/SA. There's a Ferrari in there, I drove one a guy here had and I liked it. A Lola T70 is a wicked endurance race car, James Garner did well in one at LeMans AND Daytona.
In that group above there are cars worth in excess of $1M each, some nasty quick muscle cars, a nice sports car, and an absolutely evil endurance road race car that has everything to be street legal except mufflers. It covers the full spectrum of my likes, outside of pure race cars.
I have yet to see or drive an Asian car I care anything about. I like Ferraris, don't much care at all for Porsches, or BMWs.

I would HOPE that SuperFormance has dramtically improved their products since the last three Cobras I did.
The frame is horribly weak and inadequate. The design is so bad that not only do their headers not fit, but neither does their exhaust system. Not to mention the headers are among the absolute worst I've ever seen, especially for the $600 cost. The exhaust is only 2", hardly adequate for even a 400HP engine, it KILLED the 620HP 427 small block I built, I doubt if the thing makes 540HP with that system.
The fuel system is inadequate as well. One small line, with a Nissan plastic fuel filter off of a 200SX best I can tell.
The clutch system is a rigged abomination, bastardized from a 5.0 Mustang.
The brakes immediately required $1000 upgrades, and the shocks and springs were replaced by the dealer as well at a cost of over $1500.
The guages did not work right, and the ignition system wasn't much better.
Considering all three customers paid over $45K for their cars WITHOUT the engine OR transmission, I was horribly disappointed.
The 8.8 rearends appear to give problems as well, and the halfshafts are weak. At the last track event one of my customers attended in Charlotte (the factory and dealer put the events on) one of the Cobras broke a rearend and a half shaft and stuffed the wall.
During the event, my customer had brake problems as well. From 100 MPH, if you clutched it and coasted, it stopped VERY quickly. For a few minutes, you could park the car on the back door of the trailer and it would stay there by itself even out of gear. They actually told the customer to pull the master cylinder and sand the piston down.
As soon as I finish the resto on his 66 L-79 Corvette engine and trans, we're taking the Cobra to a couple of racecar builders to get quotes on having REAL headers built (I simply don't have the time to build a set, it'll be a nightmare). Then I'll swap heads and put on a 4 Weber 48IDA intake for him, and see if we can get all his power back and then some.

I'd certainly say so from what I've read. Pete Brock designed the new Daytona Coupe for SuperPerformance. Road & Track was very impressed with the quality of the car. Roush Racing provided the computer resources to design the new frame which was done by the same gentleman that designed the suspensions for the original Ford GT-40s. RDI built the $17,000 aluminum 427 powering the car. Brock insisted on top shelf components and according to R&T, quality is first rate. This car is supposed to be orders of magnitude better than SuperPerformance's early cars. Even Shelby signed off on it, something he refused to do with prior cars from these guys.
Headers are Burns Stainless custom units, with large diameter tubes and a huge collector/muffler.

Then I'll swap heads and put on a 4 Weber 48IDA intake for him, and see if we can get all his power back and then some.
I've done bolth 289 and 427 headers for the A/C's along with replacing Spiral baffles in Factory Side pipes .(Even the original headers didnt fit that well and were prone to cracking )
As for Header cost I'd ussually charge about 900-950 for custom fit Stainless .
(Steped ,clocked, and tuned )
550-700 for Steel headers (plus coating) , 1200 for original copys .

I like this guy's garage...
(http://www.drycreekairpark.net/Copy%20of%20House%20156.jpg)
or this one...
(http://www.rvinteractive.com/rvguys/Fall2004Images/images/C6CU8694.jpg)
This is nice...
(http://www.hensleyairpark.com/EarlySnow3.jpg)
I'll take a pickup and a C-185 and any one of these.

Isn't that second one on 26 by the vernonia turnoff?

Ik3 that S500 wouldn't be a nice car to own unless you plan to keep it in the garage. They tend to double their price very quickly in repairs. Engine, electric systems, tranny, a/c etc. all break down in many of them.
Anyone who buys a new mercedes these days has to be prepared to pay way more than the purchase price. :eek:

You probably are correct, the top 2 are in Oregon - the bottom one is in Tennessee so top two get top billing.
