I just find it funny how people care so much. The only way I'd care is if I was buying the car.

I've actually been asked that question many, many times so here was my answer on a recent thread...

I drive Envy like an idiot...punching the gas, careening around corners, blowing up to the intersections, etc, etc. I'm not proud of it...but I don't want to change it. She's just that much fun! And no matter what stupid sh*t I've done...that V6 has never once given me a reason to doubt her abilities and I always feel so safe. She's kinda like a rollercoaster...fun and exhilarating but you know that baby's gonna stay on the tracks.

On the other hand...we have the '07 Shelby with a 3.4 Whipple SC and it dynoes at 718/700. That car is one awesome piece of machinery but it doesn't belong on the streets. It's a whole lot of fun to drive but it's also super dangerous so I have to be careful. I have to save all the showboating in that thing for empty roadways otherwise I'm being stupid. While driving it recently...I forgot my street manners and punched it in 2nd and the d*mn thing almost leaped across two lanes. I've had some practice at this point so I was able to keep control but holy crap...there was a car nearby and I felt like a dumb*ss. Here's where I like to use my Spiderman quote.."with great power comes great responsibility"...and unfortunately, I'm just not that responsible...lol.

So yes...I could have purchased an SS...but two years ago when I built Envy...it was a much bigger challenge to do with her what many said couldn't be done...than to do what everyone else was doing.
So you see...my V6 has always been a WINNER to me!

Thank you! She is very special to me.

Now back to that rear end...lol. I thought the large green a$$ looked horrible so I added a vinyl stripe on the deck lid trying to break it up. It looked better but it wasn't WINNING for me yet.
