And the Mercedes' that we get in the USofA are built in North Carolina in order to avoid import taxes and cost of transport from overseas. Nothing in the car industry is pure anymore. It's all about avoiding overhead and going cheap where they can, even the German luxury boys.

Regardless of where they are built their business/manu practice is going ot be the same regardless of country of origin. If you cut corners in your factory in your home country you will do the same if you stand up a factory in the US.
Proof. Plan and simple. Pretty parts are just that.......pretty. Show and prove. It shouldn't be considered hating if you ask some one to PROVE that what they are doing works. No proof = vaporware.

Congrats for growing a pair and going to the track. You have now done what others have done before you for 1/10th the cost. Hope it does 6's when u crank up the boost because with the hype surrounding this car... thats what i would expect it to do .

Ditto. One thing that always annoys me on forums is when people can't produce dyno graphs, time slips, other things that show proof of claimed numbers/times. If they did go to the track, where was the video or time slip earlier? Did they just go recently?
