Only took them 53 years.

I'm just kidding guys. Don't get your panites in a wad.

How would the ZR1 compare to the new Nissan GT-R?

10.5 quarts.

I'm don't follow sports cars, but if I were to buy one after winning a lottery it would probably be a Porsche as they seem to have a good racing heritage that has benefited their production vehicles. This isn't saying that they're the best or best value or anything, it just seems like an easy, safe decision. Looking at the starting line up for the 2007 Le Mans on Wiki it seems that Corvetts has been doing well too, which is nice to see.

Does BMW do such racing ? They strike me as being the type of company more inclined to make a flawed high performance car.

I work with a guy that is well off and a real sports car enthusiast. He loves Porsche and thinks they are the best daily driver sports car you can buy.

Two of the most successful racing teams, Corvette and Porsche both use Mobil 1! HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
