I don't want to be like everyone else and have a V8 muscle car, (I shouldn't say I don't want one because I have one) I want a V6 underdog that will eventually hold it's own against similar cars like a Nissan Z or EVO. It's also somewhat of the sleeper mentality, That is why I'm building up a FWD cavalier, that when done will be able to run 13's, how often do you see that? To me its just more fun.
Well, now you sound like all the GTO guys defending their choice of car with "I wanted to be different". The fact is, you're buying a mass produced car (an extremely anticipated one at that), so if you think your not going to see hundreds of thousands of cars just like yours on the streets in the next couple of years, you in for a rude awakening. I applaude your desire to build something original on your own however, as that is in the real spirit of hot rodding. Keep it up.

Isn't there some rule about personal attacks on this board? Seems like the mods have been hammering it home for awhile now. I guess you didn't get the bulletin.

What are you talking about? I never said a V6 had to be n/a, I said I don't understand why so many folks these days get excited about a n/a V6 pony/muscle car. Ever thought about pursuing a career in politics? The way you can spin what someone says, you should.
