#1: Ultimate Gratuitous Cars
Page 2

 Welcome to Chaser's latest attempt to force its ideals on you, the hapless reader. This list will be a regular feature, offering seven different items, in order, of all flavors, covering the entire Chaser spectrum. Keep in mind that these are our opinions, which means they are the law of the land, and should be taken as gospel. If you are given an assignment to rank the seven best of something covered in the Top 7, then you will receive the highest grade possible, although we can't promise you won't be expelled for plagiarism.

Here we go! The first installment is New Ultimate Gratuitous Cars, ones that are undisputed penis extensions. People will think that you might as well be stepping on the gas with your johnson, these vehicles are so potent. If you could have one car for every day of insane accelerating, rubber-burning, asphalt staining, air-polluting, radio-blaring, cop-dusting, jaw-dropping fun, then they would be the following 7.

 



Porsche 911 Turbo $111,000

The venerable 911 is the poor man's megacar, if you can call a car that costs this much for the "poor". The punch on the new model is world-class (415hp), shooting you to 60mph in a blinding 3.5 seconds. Complaints are that it's nothing more than a rocket with a chair, but if you want comfort, buy a Caddie, gramps.




Dodge Viper $70,000+

You wussies out there are thinking that you'd take a 911 over a Viper, aren't you? Well, shut up and read my type: 2.4. That's the 0-60 on this bad mammerjammer, I shit you not. Of course, this is no stock Viper, that bad V10 can only do a 4.8, which is--trust me--still fast enough for any human. I'm talking about the Hennessey Viper, with 902 lb-ft of torque. Sit back in your seat, or the G-force will make you!




Callaway C12 $179,000

You like the Corvette, but you think you're too good for it? Stop your bitching and hop into the Callaway. This guy has been working on Vettes for decades, and now has his own car to show for it. 440hp and crazy torque propel your ass to 60 in 4.3, a hair better than a stock Vette, but you're really paying for the outlandish shell and interior.




Aston-Martin Vanquish $228,000

Ah, you fashion yourself a jet-setter, a cut above the riff-raff, do you? You'd simply look like a heel rolling into the country club in a barbaric sports car, eh Chad? Well, fear not, your transpo has arrived. This is no Goldfinger car, it's just a big, bad mother with 460hp and all the fine detailing that you'd expect from the top luxury car maker in the world (sorry Rolls).




Ferrari Maranello $220,000

You could easily have a list of nothing but Ferraris, but if you have to have only one, this is your ride. It's almost the perfect car, with gorrrgeous lines, 485hp, a 4.7 to-sixty time, and the legendary horse. It's the car for all occasions, unless you need to be subtle...and what the hell would you want to do that for?




McLaren F1 $1,000,000

Any car that has a seven-figure price tag has to be pretty nastybad. Well, they don't come mo' nasty than this'n. 60mph in only 3.1 makes this the fastest production car in the universe, and it can corner like a Tron bike. Yow.
