i read that comparison also and i think that the fit actually beat the z06 vette by 6 mph. thats

That Spoon Fit has a bone stock engine. The other car was turbo'd. Have you guys read the article in Sport Compact Car magazine a few months back. The Spoon Fit was 3 seconds faster than a supercharged 350z at The Streets of Willows race track in Southern California. But it takes a skilled driver to drive that thing fast.

I might be tempted to get rid of my EG if they came out with a K20 Type R fit. Turbo it and ur the fastest out there.

I was very impressed. As I was never really attracted to the car before because of its looks, I was quite surprised to see it perform like that. I never would have guessed it had that potential from the commercial. But you have to remember, the Spoon fit is not a cheap car. If you buy a stock fit and build it to be a racer, it would need a lot of work and quite the investment. But still, fun looking car.
