What car?

There you go comparing tuner cars to stockers again....while everything you state here is otherwise correct, you forget that the tuner versions of the 6.0L V8 can and will mop the floor with said honda - and still be rock steady on the limiter at 155mph, which is more than you can say for the honda....

And the stock honda - even the 160hp K20 "smogger" motor in the civic si just doesn't have the balls to keep up with a stock GTO. [/QUOTE]Where are these super tuned cars you speak of? The ONLY cars running 1,000+Bhp are RACE cars, not tuners, not stock, not anything capable of getting a loaf of bread, only cars found at the race track!
Otherwise, I'm sure you would have given us a link at least two pages back. You were given the link to the fastest production car, and it 'only' has 800+Bhp, so, where's the Horse's?

And I'm comparing reality to reality. As well as a 360Bhp VR6 pulling 3000lbs, will have more HP to weight ratio than a stock 400Bhp V8 pulling a 3725lb sled, but less than above mentioned Honda. So, IN REALITY they both can be beat on the STREET going after a loaf of bread.
