Default To those involved in the focus group last night.

What did you think??? Nothing I would have on my car but a very good idea. Definitely would cater only to certain customers though.

I think I would buy it. It suits my needs as long as they can redesign it to fit our cars.

No worries I am the same way. That UK guy was a fellow car guy. Plus I had to show him not all americans are fat and stupid (Thanks Jeremy Clarkson). LOL. Oh btw my dad didn't remember you at first either.

It will be great if they actually produce it. I think a corssflow design for an F-Body wouldn't be feasible. Face it, crossflow mufflers suck. I would be all over it for the cars I own with conventional mufflers. I like quiet at cruise and idle, and lots of flow @ WOT. I am anxious to see/hear it in action.

Yea, I did not think that "dinner and drinks" would turn out to be pizza and water. But the $100 was really nice!
