So is this a sign of the apocalypse ...................... a sign of the times ...................or our automotive future?
The future is ...now.....and coming FAST....

We need to invent a flux capacitor for a 5th Gen Camaro so we can go back and get the 2015 with flying cars and the skyway, this future is edging on sucking hard without displacement and V8 power.

displacement and size will have nothing to do with performance...

You can't look back and compare....

because the future is going to be....

(in the not too distant future)

Amazing!!

Hold on tight, .....

the ride the has just begun!!
