0-60 in under 6? WOW!!!!

This article points out that the Lamborghini Murcielago now being used by the Dubai police is so fast--- get this--- that (according to the Lambo website, according to the article) the car will do 0- 60 MPH (well, 100 KPH, which is actaully closer to 62 MPH, lost in translation, I guess) in UNDER SIX SECONDS!!! Wow!!! .................................................http://news.yahoo.com/taller-now-fas...--finance.html.................................................. ........................ I read another Yahoo! news story the other day ( http://omg.yahoo.com/photos/stars-an...368835680.html )that discussed the Bugatti Veyron, and how they cost 1.1 MILLION DOLLARS! Same article showed the Hennesey Venom... the article reports that that thing can go 0- 60 MPH in 15 seconds! My GOD! Wouldn't that just rip your face off by splitting it down the nose and right over your freakin' ears? .................................................. ............. Yeah, I guess the people writing articles about cars don't know the first thing about cars. Lame.

I think the Bug costs about $1.1 annually, just for maintenence... the 0- 60 in under six is nice when the car only cost $30Gs and says "Camaro" on both sides... and I used to drive a VW bus with a misfire... it would apparently leave Steven Tyler in his Hennesey (in the article above) in the dust. Guess I shoulda kept the bus...
