Title: 超级跑车比省油
Date: Fri, 25 Sep 2009 14:03:27 +0000
Author: daiwei2136

 

奔驰SLR， 法拉利599，阿斯顿马丁DBS，奥迪R8和兰博基尼5辆超级跑车各载1加仑油比赛。法拉利599开了1.7miles就熄火了。第二辆退出的是阿斯顿马丁，奔驰SLR是第三个退出，主持人驾驶的兰博基尼位居第二，最后的冠军是奥迪R8，它足足跑了5miles，如果你想买节油的跑车，那就是奥迪R8。

问你宝马M3(M为竞速)和丰田Prius(51mpg in city)哪个更经济，99％的会说丰田。但是结果显示每加仑M3比Prius多跑2 miles，如果你想买节油的车，Go get BMW M3，LOL！
