I don't hate domestics either, in fact I am trying to get my dad to put money into an 80 el camino and swap the stock v-6 to a 350 v8 from a camaro. I have yet to see a substitute for being able to ride a wheelie for the first 1/4 of the 1320 ( an rare thing in an import ) and the rumble of a gas guzzling 3 gallons per mile

engine is awsome..... but when you can pass everything but the corner gas station it becomes a trailer queen.
but the domestic market has yet to show a car that will drive from home to the track, run 10's all day, drive home, go to work the next couple of days and then finally hit the gas station.
why do racers take all the shit out of their cars and try for gobs of hp..... because the more horses and less weight means the fastest times, well the hp/weight ratio on imports is already good and when you add a turbo and build the engine you can keep all you creature comforts like a/c and a slammin system ( including the ps2 ). and the best is when you have all of that for less $$$ than the fool in his mustang cobra.
oh and when the dude in the porche looks over at you and can't seem to leave you and your 95 hatch in the dust, be sure he sees that your in a HONDA
