legandrex Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 The HP wars are cool, but all the cars in discussion are well over $50 grand. Not ever going to happen for me unless I win the lottery, or drive my GT until it has about 200000 miles on it which would be about 15-20 years from now. Gas will probably $10 a gallon then and we will all be driving hybrids or electric cars. Too bad $$$ doesn't grow on trees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bosco Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 That used to be true but in Chevrolet's case if I truly was blown away by a 07 Z06 but wanted a Chevy 4 door with performance for under 35K what do I turn to? the halo car is still true and always will be. chevy Z06 ford GT porsche GT acura NSX nissan GTR, coming soon lexus LF-A, coming soon mb SLR toyota FT-HS (supra), coming soon cadillac XLR etc. all the major players do it.

IwannaSportSedan Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 But behind every halo car you should have a practical car with most of the halo's performance. You can't sell a halo car to people who need more practicality. You can sell a practical car with nearly halo performance, with the aspirational aspect of the halo car. Chevy Z06 should have a RWD sedan behind it... at this rate, it might end up being the Pontiac G8. Maybe Impala SS RWD revision, if it isn't ugly. Ford GT/Shelby GT500 -> Interceptor sedan, perhaps special version. (my proposed mercury sport sedans... but as-if that is going to happen.) Porsche GT... Porsche is not a normal situation, but they have the Cayenne Turbo, and Panamera is coming. Acura NSX - TL-S, rumored turbocharged SH-AWD TSX replacement. Nissan GTR - G35 sedan sport 6MT. Lexus LF-A - Lexus IS-F. MB SLR - Any AMG 4-door or bigger. Toyota Supra replacement (WTF IS WITH THE CRAZY ALPHA-NAMES. NOT EVEN NUMBERS ANYMORE... GIBBERISH!!!) Toyota NEEDS something with some spice in their practicality. Caddilac XLR-V - STS-V, CTS-V. Etc... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
