    "...looks better doing so" I totally disagree. Its the best looking car in the world imo. The Keoniggggsseeeesssggeeseeeggg may be a faster car (in a straight line), but I think the Zonda's overall package is better. Its more balanced and does not require you to be Lewis Hamilton in order for you to drive it and not die.

    Zonda = a work of art, precise, balanced, a katana.
    CCXR = brute force, get outa my way or i'll eat u up, a sledgehammer
    I love em both...

    In actuality, the Zonda is actually considerably faster. ~10 secs around the Numburgring (etrernity in the racing world). LOL even the GTR is faster for crying out loud. HP dosn't really mean THAT much

    Question Re: Non rooters

    Say what? That was very complex.

    GIT is the utility (for lack of a better term) Google opted to use to track changes to the Android source code. One checks out the source code from a GIT repository and builds it locally, deploying on their own phone. It takes about an hour and a half to build Android from the source and is automated; you could start a build at night and it'd be done before you woke up in the morning.

    I'm curious as to why people don't build Android from the source code, especially when these same people have no apparent issue with flashing multiple builds that other people have done.

    Surely you mean Jenson Button, as Lewis Hamilton is old and busted with a mere 9 points in this season's championship.

    The CCXR also runs off of biofuel, making it significantly more impressive than the petrol-guzzling Zonda.

    If Nurburgring times matter that much, shouldn't you be lusting over the Radical SR8 instead of the Zonda? :P

    Also 7:27.82 -vs- 7:33.6 != ~10 seconds.
    I blame

    Ehh... who cares what it runs on biofuel or petrol. Hell even diesel works for me, if it has what it takes. The 40 or so Zonda's in the world isn't gonna change much of our current environmental predicament and neither is a few dozen bio-fueled koenigs. Moreover, I dont believe a car is more "impressive" when powered by bio-fuel, all you need is a special gas tank, fuel pumps, filters and a suitable engine management system. I'll be more impressed with a hydrogen powered keonig, now that'd be cool The newest time for the Zonda is actually 7:24.7, the one you stated was from '07. And like I said before, I really am not interested in the extremes of anything. My lust for the Zonda comes from the way the it looks, the way it sounds, its amazing attention to detail, the interior, the way it sounds, the bright, airy c0ckpit pretty much all made of glass and did i mention the way it sounds? The radical don't do all of that for me... the Zonda does, and the Keonig comes pretty close . Arguing about cars is pretty fruitless, its very much, to each his own, and I respect your choice. And FYI, Nurburgring times DO matter that much, it is the definitive ruler for measuring how fast a car is...
    Sorry for the hijacking...

    I don't root, because I want to keep my warranty thank you. It's an expensive phone. Beside, I'm from Australia where Root and Rooting have a different meaning to your usage. See http://www.koalanet.com.au/australian-slang.html#R
