Didn't the "what the heck were they thinking paint scheme" look right at home on track in its natural environment surronded and passing other flashy colored race cars like the GT3 RS?

Some member's here just dont get it or have never been to a race at Laguna Seca or similar track.

Sold black would of looked much cooler on the track passing Porches.

Big Dan, the black/red Laguna Seca with the "ugly"

red wheels is a sight to see/hear in a race track. That thing was just so awesome to hear as it came down the cork-screw and the noise it made reverberates across the hills. The factory cut outs and the red key...Daayuuummmmmmmmmmmmm!!!!!!!!!!!!! A true race/street car. I love its looks...wish they made more and dealers in SoCal weren't so darn greedy with their mark-ups.

I seen online the 1/4 is 113, 12.8 That seams slow?

Id take one in a heartbeat. Its a bad arse car. I love my camaro, but have you driven one (boss 302) yet? OMG is all I can say. Made me feel like a teenager all over again. My old man had a nice Mach 1 and it brought out all of those old feelings again. Its a great car regardless of what badge it wears..

I see online the 1/4 is 12.3@115.8mph from Motor Trend and 11.7@117.7 on stickies. That seems fast?

I saw a Boss up at VIR a few months ago.... pretty cool guy, he showed us the difference between the regular key and the red key..... that's just amazing that just choosing a different key can make such a difference!

A hell of a car for the money. Who else builds a sub 12 second car for 41K?

Awesome car but performance can't compensate for lack of taste on those stripes/wheels for the Laguna Seca (or the 911 GT3 RS).

I know suck a lack of taste

What the heck were they thinking, solid black would look so much better.

Cool, here is Laguna Seca's fastest list. Amazing how quick this 444hp Boss Mustang with a SRA is around LS.

It would look better with a body color roof and black wheels with a red pinstripe IMO.

Some good color combos to be had, but some are a bit over the top....

The last two are photoshopped, I can tell. The blue one had white accents and the black one had red accents.

Not sure what site I seen it on, but was saying 12.8 @113 mph. 12.3 Seams better.

I'm even more impressed with its 1:39.50 around Laguna Seca.

It's a hell of a car, no doubt. Hopefully Chevrolet will answer with something for those who want a content limited, production race ready car. Just not my style, I like creature comforts.
