Translation
So, the translation is probably A) XLR will get THREE hundred fourty HP and the V will get maybe B) 395 to stay away from the Vette's #'s!
:yesnod
If you go back and read most of the threads about future XLR's, its pretty funny.
The optimism of the owners vs. reality "500HP" "almost guaranteed from reliable sources" vs. 380 actual in the V is my favorite.
:glol
I guess if our main goal was HP, we'd be driving Viper RT10's or Z06 Vettes! Most of us can afford them, but chose the XLR (to get maximum, techno-luxury).
I'm not complaining about HP anymore--now that this site taught me how to turn off the traction control AND the stabilitrak, I've been having a blast sliding around corners with incredible balance and controlled skidding--reminds me of my brother's 10 yr old 911 with skinny tires--320 ponies are getting the job done! :cool

Well, ok, I wouldn't complain if my next XLR had 380 HP....
