[QUOTE="texan, post: 1233211, member: 38206"] From my automotive background I was curious as to why, I found the story about the auto that this person was in as a passenger. The Porsche Carerra GT. The sports car has a top speed of 208 mph, a very high-revving V10 engine and more than 600 horsepower, said Eddie Alterman, editor-in-chief of Car and Driver magazine. Todd Trimble, an exotic car mechanic in Las Vegas, said the Carrera GT is a "very hard car to drive." Brand new, the car costs $450,000. An oil change alone costs $900, Trimble said. Porsche made only about 1,300 Carreras GTs. The Carrera GT is also unusual because it has no electronic stability control. That means it's unforgiving with mistakes. Very sad.
