bang for the buck though a vette is tough to beat. s/c outta put you around 550-600hp. I'm not gonna envy your rear tire bills.
Sloppy steering and poor road feel eh? Try a Corvette after the C4...

It is a reference to a song by Aqua, when Z mentioned Fantastic Plastic it just reminded me of the song, note the two lines in bold below:

Hi barbie
Hi ken
Do you wanna go for a ride?
Sure ken..
Jump in....
I'm a barbie girl, in a barbie world
Life in plastic, it's fantastic..

You can brush my hair, undress me everywhere..
Imagination, life is your creation..
Come on barbie, let's go party!

Imagination, life is your creation..
I'm a blond bimbo girl, in a fantasy world,
Dress me up, make it tight, i'm your dolly..
You're my doll, rock'n'roll, feel the glamour in pink,
Kiss me here, touch me there, hanky panky..
You can touch, you can play, if you say: "i'm always yours"
(uu-oooh-u)
