Default Build your dream car

You have 50G's that you can buy a car with. Then you have unlimited cash to build that car from there. What do you buy and build. Please be some what resonible. I know everyone just wants to buy a 91 civic HB and put a lamborghini murcielago motor in it.

Then get a Z06... still beats almost anything off the production line.

Weight distribution with the inline-6 will get screwed up, the LS1 weighs about the same as a 13b-REW with its associated turbo and intercooler crap and is still mostly behind the front axle.

1360 hp won't work in a car that actually has to turn unless it's an F1 car or something.
