I am NOT drama, and I'm definitely not a llama. In fact, you mom said I was more like a horse last night. She lika da sauce.

My point was that if you have some brains and some experience then you can probably ride a liter. It wasn't a personal jab and I wasn't calling you a twat, so pull your panties back out of your crack. And yes, I am in control. Very fucking in control actually.

It doesn't and it's not nimble. And for $46,000 I'd rather go the extra $10k and get one of the only high volume production cars on the road standard with six-piston monobloc calipers. Mmmmm, I loves me some big fuckin' brakes.

I agree with your facts, I don't however agree with your opinion here --> "The EVO is one of the best handling cars on the road, period." I highly doubt that. I've driven them, nice but nothing special. Handling isn't based on skidpad numbers alone. BTW, you've been waiting for this day haven't you. I still say the ol' C5 Z06 is one of the best handling, most powerful budget track cars you can buy right now. 405 HP, 0-60 in 2.9, 1/4 in 12.4 or less, 3,115lbs, and sublime handling. I'd pick a stock C5 convertible in the handling department over the EVO any day.

Yes, the SHO is nice. Just not my thang. BTW, power is a pulley change away with the V. God I love superchargers.

Go poopra! I remember a supra dyno meet video where they started measuring HP and TQ figures in "assloads", "shit-tons", and "fucking crazy" (aka 1000+). It was lulz.

The EVO is still a shitbox rattle-trap though. Ever ridden in one? And you'd still have to dump some money in to make them handle as well as the CTS-V out of the box. The V's interior is gorgeous, with Recaro seats, leather everywhere, and great dash materials. The same cannot be said for the EVO or STi. Those cars are in completely different classes anyways. And also, I think someone asked on here. $56,000 is starting price. Go to Voss Caddilac on 725 in Dayton and ask for a test drive of a new V. They'll ablige you, trust me. It may change your perception though.

:sigh:

The GT-R is not considered a sports SEDAN. Yes it's faster, but it's got AWD and It doesn't weigh 4,000 lbs. For what the CTS-V is, it's damn good. And anyone who thinks 12.5 @115 from a family sedan is slow is a lil kooky. (yes you fusion )

That thing is running finally?!

Topped out at 158 on the speedo in 6th gear on an undisclosed stretch of highway. Will do repeatable 5 second 0-60s. It's not too fast, but it's fine for now. Plans for way in the future include a custom single 70mm turbo kit from the mad scientist GTO tuning friend of mine.

We stamp them on our engine blocks all the time. The bitch is trying to get a Hawkeye reader to scan them in a high-shine environment.

That's the point. I get people following me all the time trying to figure out WTF it is. I get a kick out of it. Those who know, will know. It was a hit at Woodward this year.

I highly suggest!

Thanks. Yeah, it's not the fastest, best handling, most powerful, most luxurious, none of that. It's just a good combination of them all. I can fit four 6ft people in comfortably if I want, it's super nice when gobbling up highway miles, it's quiet inside and loud outside. And every time I really crack the throttle, she always brings a smile to my face.

I stopped when the cords of the tire started slapping the wheel wells.

Like this? Note: That's not the Bassani exhaust, and I drove away because one of the tires was on fire. Whoops! lol http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E4eCTS0wfdI

You did not just say that.

5.7L with T56 6-spd Mods: K&N Drop-in Filter Billet Specialties Shifter Airlift Drag Bags Bassani catback exhaust It's gone a best of 13.44 @ 104 mph.

It's pretty much close to being done. I didn't take many pics, just did it. And the seats and gauge faces are gonna cost some $$$$$. Still throwing around the idea of getting the center leather part of the seats restitched in Alcantara.
