High End Cars Unveiled @ The Detroit Auto Show
HOLY ****!!!
The Mercedes Maybach
- First Class Airline Seats in the back
- 543 Horsepower V-12
- $300,000 US Base Model Price
- The roof of the car changes from transparent to opaque at a touch of a button
Some Cadillac Roadster ( i forget the name )
-1000 Horsepower V-16
- Silk Carpet interior
- Real Mahogony, walnut, maple wood trim
?!?!?!?!?!?
personally........ i think some of these cars is just going overboard
but if your buying these cars... you obviously have WAY WAY too much money....
imagine the possibilites of souping up that caddy ( like you really need to with 1000 horsepower )

It is the epitome of luxury and over-the-top money throwing exhibisionism. It's okay...some of this technology trickles down into our cars too...like the self dimming mirror I put in my Civic...all I gotta do now is find a wrecked Maybach and get the seats out of it and the roof :working: and then graft it to my Civic 
And then swap the caddy engine in 
And then swap the caddy engine in
According to those idiots on the JDM civic board, everything is a bolt in on a Civic

Remember.. most cars with VERY VERY high hp usually have low torque.
That's why track racers keep their cars in the high revs cuz they have nothing in the low end.
For example... (some of these numbers may be slighly off hehe)
Like formula F1 cars have like 1000 hp but only 200 torque. (and they redline @ like 10000 rpm lol) Get it?
Trucks have like 400 torque but like 100 hp (and they redline @ like 3500 haha).
See?
I rather have equal hp and equal torque... Like if they had 1000 hp.. I want it to have 1000 torque

there's no way a v16 in a domestic would have 200 torque, it'll have loads of it, F1 cars are built differently.....
