Yes I posted the photos on here - they're clearly Victorian plates. Maybe they were using stolen plates so that they could speed and/or drag race without being booked by cameras. (even if they were in a pursuit with cops and got away, the cops would have no way to track them down with stolen plates). But... in an EB?? lol

Yeah, on a given track, an EB may only be about 2% slower, depending on the mix of corners and straights, so a lightened one with some better tyres and a tune could well outperform a GT!

I don't get the EB hate at all. Why does GT owners feel the EB hate?

It's Bullying. Live and let live I say :thumbsup:
Yeh but I don't get it. Why do they feel like they need to bully EB drivers? Does it make them feel less that someone else is driving something different? Does it make them feel like a bigger man/woman that they're driving a GT that they have to put someone down? I don't see the motivation behind it.

Stupidity, and a lack of respect maybe ?

... maybe because EB owners get so riled up about it.
There's always one that bites.

Ones a muscle car and the other is an economy car. I don't see the issue? Economy buyers are laughing all the way to the bank, muscle buyers are broke but can't stop grinning.... Everyone is a winner :first::cheers:

You would be surprised that GT is just as frugal as EB if not better.
4cyl turbo's drink like no tomorrow especially on this heavy car.

I like the sound of that! Have been dreading the fuel bill but no way I wasnt getting the 8. But the Eco guys are $10k in front on purchase price.

I was getting 11L/100Km prior to 2000km. After 2000km it seems to be better now I'm getting around 9.5L/100Km for my daily drive. How much are you guys getting on GT?
