Wow I'm impressed. You waxed an overweight V6 powered luxo car. Don't waste your gas bro. Go race a supra or something...
Says you!

It weighs less than a stock f-body! (3400 lbs)

And it has 280 hp!

My car only has 305 hp, so says GM

pheonix, I have no idea what that post means.

It's pretty common knowledge that all LS1's have about 350 hp depending on options.

Yes, I'm well aware, just messing, not trying to flame you.
Just that in your last post you said GM says the fbody only has 305 HP.
I meant that since you have 305, you are one of the lucky ones with a "factory freak" because my car has less!

I have 2K GP GT and I have had 2 run ins with the almighty G35 and I was not impressed! The first run in, getting on the highway via a 2 lane on ramp where the G35 thought he was going to own me and go around me on the second lane that ends, and get to the highway first, wrong he could'nt pass me so he let off and I slowed down once I got on the highway and he wouldn't even look at me. The second time, I was in the slow lane and the G35 was behind me and I saw the G35 coming around me, and I just knew this guy was going to be getting off the next exit, so instead of just staying put, he tried to make a break and I went WOT on the Prix and he didn't have enough to pass me so he had to hit the brakes and get behind me to exit, as I suspected.

I love people who think they have a fast expensive car and learn expensive doesn't mean fast, it means just nice a car.
