Lol i meant this comment sarcastically, since almost all other cars will beat the brz in the straights... of course an airplane is better then a car. i would even take the wright brothers plane over my car.

Oh forgot to mention, the Blackbird's "starter" was a cart containing two Buick Wildcat V8s connected in serial to a single shaft (16 cylinders, 14L, 650HP) maybe we should be comparing the 86 and the Start Cart.

no im sorry its not, actually its an upgrade flux capacitor option from the dealership. Aval on all trims. So you don't have to get the limited to take advantage of this option, and the wiring harness is already built in.

$20,000 MSRP
Part Number - H4510TROLOL000
