As far as products go though, he has built some great cars, mainly vipers.
AlexWS6, are you also VRAlexander?

Kids! Kids! Kids!
Therein lies the problem..... You three that are arguing over the Enzo v.s. CGT v.s. TT S7 are seemingly only worried about drag times.... I think. I could have possibly bought a S7 but was concerned over lack of Manufacturer size and especially when a Porsche dealer said the industry refers to the S7 as a 'kit car'. That does seem a little brutal to say! Plus, the TT S7's price seems extremely high compared to the Enzo or CGT.
I don't think the purchaser of any of these cars is 'only' buying it because it's the fastest car on the street. We bought them because we wanted cars with the greatest technology available today, the 'sexiest' style, the (hopefully) finest craftsmanship, the safest car to drive at high speeds when chosen to and the best and most honorable Manufacturer to stand behind their vehicle when and if there is ever a problem!
I say the following in a friendly mannner.... You kids are 'still wet behind your ears'. When I was your age, yeah, all I was concerned about was the fastest car on the street and I too would 'hot rod' my cars up to get them that way. In the end, I usually regretted goofing the car up. I always wished I had left them in their stock condition.
As you grow older and mature, you will see that most of the points I made above are more important 'in all' than just having the fastest car around. Michael

I hear what you're saying, but all of my cars would at least have an air intake, an exhaust and a tune...just so the sound is more pleasurable and the tune will yeild more power with a better tune than from the factory...although the carerra gt's exhaust would undoubtly be stock...that is the best sounding production car ever.
