The argument started before that

And on the ZL1 thing my ego isn't too big to admit I was wrong

How about yours

What the OP said about the coyote completely contradicts what you said tho? lol

So the coyote makes more NA power than the ZL1 right?

Awesome, so we can agree that F-bodies are 13.6-14.6 second cars. Magazine Times are pretty fair, right? See below.

Because Pontiac wanted to take their image in a different direction which the firebird contradicted.

That's not the point at all. The point is his comment about mag times. If he found something wrong with the times I posted or made excuses, he would be contradicting something he said earlier.

He'd rather shoot his dick off than admit he's wrong.

If that were the case why did both Fbodies disappear.... Pontiac , Buick etc isn't like it used to be with all their "Own" type things like back in the day with the 455O 455B and 454C days .... It's just body panels and **** now that makes them different ...

Both f bodies disappeared because the Quebec plant had the contract to build them until at least 2017. GM desperately needed to close that plant but they couldn't while they were manufacturing f bodies. So they had to disappear until the plant was not only closed, but disposed of.
