Yep noticed the visibility was worse in the 6th. I figure I'd get used to it tho. The sound of that LT1 was intoxicating.

we all give each other a hard time in this thread, we all have fun like that.

I am okay with the 6th Gen front and would be a little okay with the rear if I was dying to get an upgrade. But at the moment, I am waiting to get a closer look at the ZL1 and what it offers. If I upgrade, I'm going big.

Oh very cool, any idea when you'll be back this way? Could meet at the drag strip in MD close to where you are next time and get some runs in if they're open

Go big or go home! The SS would be a nice upgrade over the 5th gen SS but I'm with you that you gotta go big on the upgrade lol went from a 160 hp Accord to my SS. Talk about a little shock when I put it down the first time

we were in a similar situation. Went from something with about 290 hp, to an SS. And that was very fun. Then added the Supercharge and then it went from fun to "hold on".

Yeah for me it would be a jump from the 5th gen V6 to the 6th gen SS.

I can testify to the "hold on" and he didn't even get on it hard when I was with him, but it gave me much want for a blower.
