Given that a stock 2004 Z06 was driven to a lap time of 7:56 during
suspension testing, I see no reason that someone could not take longer
driving a different one. So, I`m not sure what you are trying to point
out? It`s only value is to be aware of it when some troll attempts to
use it to "prove" some silly claim.

All vehicles should have embedded electronic tags that can be read at a distance equal to opposite lane separation on a divided interstate.
PS: license plates are a separate issue

Title: Mansory Cyrus Date: Fri, 25 Sep 2009 09:44:54 +0000 Author: symo

Un’altra belva da museo va ad aggiungersi alla lunga lista di mostri su cui Mansory ha messo le mani.

Dopo il successo della Bentley Continental by Mansory (che il tuner aveva presentato a Ginevra diversi mesi fa) ecco che si ritorna in Inghilterra questa volta in casa Aston Martin.
Lo stile di base rimane e i rimaneggiamenti aftermarket sono i soliti a cui ci ha abituato Mansory. Primo fra tutti un uso spropositato della fibra di carbonio. Anche se può sembrare che tutta la carrozzeria sia costituita del preziosissimo materiale, solo alcuni “dettagli” lo sono veramente: passaruote, minigonne, cofano motore e paraurti frontale e posteriore. Sul resto della carrozzeria è stato applicato un adesivo di altissima qualità che ne riproduce la caratteristica trama.
