twin turbo vs Exige

Okay boys and girls... i honstly can say i have NEVER been in a car that was as much fun as the new Exige...My boy picked one up a week or so ago and had the euro supercharger conversion done...Today we got up early and headed out for some fun in the sun and on some nice windy roads... Wont say were we went (past issues)... but OMG... about 5 miles into the road we pulled over and i got to climb inside that beast...first off at 6.2 it fits nice...at 300lbs ...it doesnt fit at all...but hey to drive this car i can make myself fit... So we leave the turbo to the side for a second and i give this car a go... OMG...if it gets better than this i really need to get it... cause honestly i have never EVER, been in a car that just screams all the way around... the handleing was just INSANE...

Compared to the Turbo.... Its a better fun car... honestly... turns way more heads, moves quicker, handles better, and so fourth... This is stock vs Stock.. so to speak... honestly if any of you guys are gonna get another car soon... check this one out... i wanna go get an ATOM though i hear thats just the best of the best for any price

I agree, the F16 is definately faster than an Escalade Ext.

I have a friend that knows the driver of the Escalade he said he missed a gear and the guy in the F-16 would not race again...His only mod was those cool light up 24" wheels

Well, doing the Euro supercharger isn't exactly stock, but anyways.
I don't believe the Exige S is available here in the U.S. If it was, I would have one NOW.
