I signed on www.supercars.net

www.supercars.net is a very good source for information, stats, performance, etc for old or new cars. Recently, the website has been offering a forum where members could exchange their thoughts on any car just underneath its name. So i signed on to chat with other member on cars not just the great M5

It was on the same site where i read the unbelievable performance of the upcoming Bugatti 16/4 Veyron Forum!! But their were posts under this car like "CR*P!!.........McLaren rule!!"... Members like " Brit cars rule" !!! "McLamboBugga" <---- what is that supposed to mean ?!?!?

Here is the post under CR*P..McLaren rule:-

oh this is crap!
Can u say ugly?
This car is too big and probably weighs as much 18 McLarens.
People will say this is the greatest supercar ever built because it has a higher top speed and 0-60mph time than the McLaren F1 but that doesn't matter.....there have been many concept cars which have higher speed that the F1 but the McLaren F1 is unique, it doesn't have to slap 4000 turbos onto it's engine to give it monster power, also the McLaren weighs less than a Ford Fiesta where the Veyron weighs a lot more and this is why in development the Veyron had serious problems with it's handling where the McLaren excelled in this department.......the McLaren was a revolutionary design with all the details coming from the F1 scene where the Veyron doesn't.....I mean come on.....an engine bay lined with 24 crt gold!!!.....now that's revolutionary.
But overall the McLaren F1 will always be the King of supercars and no cars like this Veyron will ever steal it's crown.
How can u respect an engine with 4000 turbo's on it?......the mclaren 627 bhp from a normally aspirated engine.....that just rules!!!

Its very obvious that is has become another www.bimmer.org !!!! Just threads thrown from every angle and from people who haven't got a clue what they are talking about!!!! Its just sad that they can't get along like we do on this website

Best Regards and hats off to the best memebers in the World

I go to supercars.net quite regularly just to get pictures for wallpaper. In terms of messageboard there is no comparison to the wonderful one we have here.

In my opinion it is because we actually own the cars we talk about.

Ok, I only have an E34, not an E39, but you know what I mean.



These guys are obviously 17 years old and driving £100 bangers with Nowack stickers and fake alloy hubcaps.

I would love to be seriously, seriously Sultan of Brunei rich. I could offer a Veyron to the guy and then say "oh! you don`t like it" and give it to someone else
