the turbo sonic has the exact same HP... just a few more tq. The cooper sure makes being stuck in traffic more fun

I know, but like I said, the potential in raising the boost and getting a tune could make the little sonic pretty badass. Again, I haven't done any research, but I don't think it's quite that easy with a supercharged cooper. Or just replace the smaller turbo with a bigger one. Lol

Just a thought.

The new Pentastar six had some surprising kick to it.

The great irony is that there is a strong chance I might be in the area next Wednesday.

Are you willing to put your money where your mouth is?
Suspension tunned by the corvette team and Pedders already has suspension parts in development.
This thing is going to be a rocket. Just saying. I'm seriously thinking about trading my SS in for a fully loaded turbo, to save for my next car.
The sonic gets better mileage than the mini too

I was seeing an estimate of 0 to 60 in 7.5 seconds. Not bad for a car that can be had under 17k.

Not a bad idea. Maybe trade my v6 in. Keep my nitrous for the sonic, and save up for a zl1...hmmm. I may be visiting a dealer in the next few weeks...
