Not necessarily, crazy mph, yes!! I ran .01 faster at Atco than at Englishtown but trapped 2.3 mph faster.

I drove one and loved it, but right now they are between 1-3K over sticker. The LS3 version is not out yet.

^ Agreed. Not to mention in typical Amercian car manner, it will drop like a rock value wise. I may just look at a used one in a year or so. Hopefully someone will have a 6 speed swap kit by then.

Same here - figured it would be a high 13 second car in the low 100s. That thing flies! I really liked that car when I saw it at the Motor Trend car show over the winter.
