Hooah. That ought to be interesting, although I doubt GM will need to worry about much.

Even more interesting is the fact that the new Lightning is coming up, too.

My personal guess is a blown 5.0L derivation of the current mod motor. But that's just a guess, based on some really, really ancient spy stuff released on blueovalnews back in 1999.

I'm going to say it here first:

My next car will be a 2006-2007ish SVT Mustang (Cobra or other name).

Or a used 2004-2005 CTS-V.

Or a Z06 (new or used, dunno).

Or a new FI RX-7 or 8.

Or an M1/2.

Or something else...goddamnit this is a great time to be an automotive enthusiast on a reasonable budget! :thumbup:

Technicalities!

FWIW... these "strangers" have better and arguably less biased input than anyone I know personally.

If the people here are less biased than those you know personally, you need to get to know some new people. :D
