    [edit] Famous owners list

    There is a discussion of having a list like the one on this one deleted, well I am totally up for it. Well it currently under discussion here. Willirennen 20.51 2 December 2006

    As with other supercar pages, this owners list has been vandalised before and also because it is unsourced, therefore at the end of this week, this famous owners list will be deleted. If there is any objections, feel free to discuss. Willirennen 17:51, 16 January 2007 (UTC)

    [edit] Technology

    Removed this sentence: "The overall technological concept of the Carrera GT could be described as representing the absolute pinnacle of classic mechanical engineering, as opposed to other supercars like the Enzo Ferrari, which rely more heavily on the ever increasing influence of electronics and computers on the driving experience."

    Sorry to annoy anyone who frequently edits this site, I just thought this was a bit speculative. Feel free to replace. --86.139.109.242 23:58, 27 December 2006 (UTC)

    [edit] Porsche GT1 Technology?

    What about the Porsche GT1, though? (Yes, I know it's a rumour right now, but let's just speculate.) Do you think it'll be more influenced by electronics and modern technology? Or will is still be the "absolute pinnacle of classic mechanical engineering"? And is that necessarily a bad thing? I mean, everything has its advantages, but they also have there disadvantages, too, don't they? Hmm, how interesting... --RyanRainbowPorscheGuy, August 06, 2007 (ASU)

    [edit] 72 degree v10?

    As if mechanically inclined are never gonna ask . there is ridiculous v10 and then there is one the correct angle of 72 degrees. Can anyone answer in the article? this isn't a dodge viper here!

    Yes, the Porsche Carrera GT does in fact have a V10. You can easily find this information by searching Google. —Mr Grim Reaper (Talk | contribs), 01:25, 24 May 2007 (UTC)

    [edit] Retarded Jeremy Clarkson quote

    The intro used to say "In Jeremy Clarkson's own words, 'Super Car Un-Plugged.'" Ok- A) who cares what Jeremy Clarkson says, he's one of the most biased car reviewers out there, and B) what the hell does "Super Car Un-Plugged" mean? I removed this quote as it doesn't have a clear meaning, and doesn't add anything to the article. Dont know how to sign edits ... 9:06, 27 July 2007

    I would agree, Jeremy Clarkson's opinion about a vehicle is irrelevant outside of England. The guy is an absolute auto zionist, who claims cars built in England are far superior to anything made elsewhere. If you disagree, just take a look at the Clarkson's Top 100. While entertaining to watch, he's a novelty to the UK and not relevant to the rest of the world. Korismo 21:35, 12 September 2007 (UTC)

    [edit] Ummm

    it was "nominated fastest car of 2005"?Geoman888 (talk) 13:28, 29 April 2008 (UTC)
