From experience driving a buddy's in college, an L99 with JUST a tune and tranny tune compared to stock is a worlds of difference.

5th gens can be pretty quick, my buddy worked me over from a 40 roll in his '13 SS m6. He had an intake and exhaust I believe, but he smashed me.

I agree. They definitely don't deserve so much hate. They're heavy, so gear the **** out of it and all is well . Either motor is a great starting point, so I think they're nice cars. Just hate the ******* interior
