Default New Here...

Well, i guess i've been converted to a domestic enthusiast now because i used to be into the whole import scene. After seeing and riding in a co-workers 10sec camaro i guess its an influence to see that imports really cant touch v8's in any way. Dont get me wrong some are fast, but there mostly meant for gas mileage or for poor people such as me . I do plan to own a GM vehicle here soon and i hope to learn some stuff from the site.

Welcome to the site. You're making the right move by ditching imports and going with American Muscle. You can't go wrong. You're in the right place.

LoL, i dunno...everyone seems to hate on imports, i can see why but oh well. i like the feel off gettin' put back in your seat. Some cars like corvettes can be a challenge to cause you get all sideways and stuff, you'll never find an import that can do that. that prolly makes me sound like a noob, or maybe i just aint used to the power cause im used to 4 bangers. Oh well thanxs for the welcome and hopefully i can make it out to some of the meets...

Glad to be here, learning a lot. Im finding out this site and muscle car magazines have more informative articles and information than the import stuff does. All there forums and magazines are about stupid advertisements and articles which relates to nothing to do with performance which is why were all into cars in the first place right ? I must admit for some reason there sure is a hell of a lot of fine lookin' woman in the import scene though.
