If you want to bring an arguement to the table please bring some tech info that actually has some bearing. If your intent is to just rag on imports cause you have no knowledge of them. Then I will be willing to educate you anytime you are ready. Just get your fast 6,8 or 10 cylinder domestic ready. I will meat you in ocala anytime with my underpowered 4 cylinder import.
yeah!
