    Seriously dude, you gotta quit trolling. I really dont care how much your paying for gas, and I'm still going to ***** about how high prices are. And I'm sure most Americans would agree with me. Your bickering is leading to nowhere but extended flames. Seriously, stop.

      IMO if you don't want to pay a stupid amount of cash for petrol don't buy cars with stupid size engines. My car only has a 1.4 that only puts out about 60-65BHP and it's quick enough for most things. I don't see the point in all these silly 5 liter engined cars, they do exactly the same as small engined ones.

        Same here.. 76HP from a 1.4 liter engine

        Gas is getting more expensive here..
        That's the end of that!

          The prices are high here, but if I lived in Germany I'd still spend more just by using the autobahns all the time and killing my car!

            They are hobbies for one. You do not have to make them your daily driver however.

            Plus I do not think I could drive a 65hp car.

                Cause I have driven sports cars for the last 4 years of my life and I am spoiled with driving a 285HP Formula Firebird right now while building up a 300HP Mustang

                My Honda Civic is 103 HP and its just insanely to weak lol

                  Well if you can afford a high powered car then why not if you enjoy it, I would but I will probobly be having a 1.4 litre or less since the insurance costs are so high.

                    Oh I completly agree.

                    We could drive these cars in the mid 90's and still enjoy 1.00 a gallon gas prices in America so I am quite sure we could still do it now.

                    It doesn't hurt however to offer more fuel efficent cars to those that want them. I personally do not wanta Hybrid car.... but for those that do then sell it to them!

                    We need to put pressure on our government to supply us with more Refineries here in America and continue to find ways to supply our own oil as much as possible.

                      My car has low HP but I can race 2 and 3 litre cars - It's not just about the power of the car, it's about the driver too

                      And so you don't wonder, it's a 1.2 8v Renault Clio 03 model (mark 3) and can get up to 115 mph - May not seem alot but anything over 80mph here is speeding-ticket suicide mostly - Can get to 60mph in about 7/8 seconds, which is alot faster than the "Top Gear" specialists think

                        Errr...

                        I dont care how good of a driver you are no 1.2L 8v car is going to even think about competiting with a 5.7L Formula Firebird with 275HP and 325TQ

                        I can do 115 mph in 4th gear with 2 more gears left....

                        But ok....

                          It is not that much fun as it used to be

                          To have real fun I take my dad's Audi TT Quattro for a ride
