Well ,

I was talking to my bad about some new car with a 400hp ... and my dad says: "What do u need so much hp for in America ... " .... so , I was thinking, and asking the same question u ... besides being proud .... 200 or so might be just enough ... even less ... depending on car. ...

like in Russia you can use that much power, b/c the cops are not that strict :p ... but here :(

Uhm...you're way off. Have you ever seen an American Police Raid compared to a Russian Police Raid? The american cops just hold them on the ground...the russian cops will beat them until they can't move anymore, and then cuff them.

Have you ever tried to get on the interstate that has almost no accel lane with a car with 130hp, I have and let me tell you its not fun. And going up hills/mountains at 75mph it isn't easy to down shift at that speed but you have to do something or you will slow down 10-15mph.

I am not saying that a car needs 400 but it needs enough, and hell while there pumping it out they should make it sound good too.

When you need it and don't have it... you will rethink. Besides, you can't smoke the tires without a lot of torque ;)

So you can talk about the 400 hp to girls? Who, in turn, give you oral sex (As the movies would make me believe :|)

people withhigh power cars usually will drag race, or enjoy driving fast. sure you can go 60mph in any car, but with 400 ponies you'll get there a lot faster ;) it's about acceleration
